Jonah’s

This vintage Palm Beach cafe deserves a particular mention among Sydney's seafood eateries. Whether you're flying in for a quick lunch or staying the night at the accompanying boutique hotel, the bright and breezy Jonah's is an experience. While the restaurant is a good all-arounder for any diet, the seafood dishes with a French flair should be your priority.

Start with some fresh Moreton Bay bugs served with celeriac, finger lime, chile, and a bisque bechamel, then move on to squid ink crab linguine and fresh catches like murray cod (served with chicory, chives, and an orange & saffron emulsion) and whole lobster thermidore for two. Jonah's is one of the few restaurants that uses fresh Australian lobster in this classic French dish, which involves cooking the lobster meat in a rich wine sauce before stuffing it back into its shell and browning it.
