About Citrique

Anchored inside the JW Marriott, Citrique sidesteps the Surfers Paradise strip with sharp multi-course dining alongside an expansive seafood spread. While the buffet draws crowds, diners in the know angle straight for the six-course degustation. Plating stays clean and architectural, letting the catch speak without distraction. The consensus favorite is the Moreton Bay bug dumpling, pooled in rich bisque meant to be mopped clean with sourdough. Floor staff read the room with easy timing—pouring signature tea cocktails, quietly marking milestone dinners, and wrapping the night with a pour of native limecello.

  • Six-Course Degustation: A structured six-course tasting menu spotlighting local seafood, headlined by the standout bay bug dumpling in rich bisque.
  • Celebratory Floor Service: Attentive staff like Josy and Matthew pace courses smoothly and orchestrate thoughtful gestures for birthdays and anniversaries.
  • Curated Sips & Starters: From delicate signature tea cocktails to an inventive amuse-bouche and a finishing pour of native limecello.
  • Seafood Spread & À La Carte: A dual-format kitchen pairing elevated tasting flights with an abundant cold seafood spread and hot stations.
