Red Steakhouse & Burger Bar

Red Steakhouse & Burger Bar

Perfectly cooked steaks and highly stacked burgers are at the top of most people’s go-to list of dinner choices. When paired with an icy cold beer, there’s nothing better.

Red Steakhouse & Burger Bar in Broadbeach, with a distinctly Texan saloon bar vibe, offer a delicious selection of both.

With a host of lunchtime specials, including a free beer, wine or soft drink with any burger or salad and 50% off when you order two courses per person, it’s the perfect place for a mid-week splurge or a weekend treat for the family.

To start, do not go past the Glazed Lamb Riblets with kecap Manis, tamarin, and chilli and sesame seeds; spicy, juicy and oh so tender.

If burgers are your thing try the Smokin’ Hot – an Angus pattie, double brie, crispy lettuce, salsa guacamole, jalapenos and chipotle lime mayo – or for something a little less spicy Le Chook is stacked with a grilled free-range chicken breast, Roquefort cheese, caramelized onion, rocket and garlic aioli.

There are also ten varieties of steaks to choose from and the Rib Eye comes highly recommended. If you’re in the business of choosing salads the Roasted Pumpkin with mushrooms, quinoa, sunflower seeds, toasted nuts and herbs with citrus dressing is to die for.

Red Steakhouse & Bar offer casual dining at affordable family-friendly prices and of course, are centrally located with plenty of parking available nearby.

We’ve got two $50 vouchers to give away so you can try it for yourself. Simply enter your details below and you’re in with a chance!

LOCATION: 18-20 Victoria Ave, Broadbeach (in the Oasis Centre mall)

HOURS: Open 7 days from 11.30am until late

Main Street Burger Bar

Born in Byron Bay, it’s no surprise Main Street Burger Bar, newly opened in Broadbeach, is making burgers with as many good vibes as they can muster.

The Gold Coast version brings a trendy beachside diner vine with both indoor and outdoor seating, ceiling greenery, a copper bar top and walls lined with murals featuring classic images of Broadbeach in its heyday. The tunes are pumping and it’s the perfect place to chill out and people watch.

Oh, the food’s good too.

Think organic soft rolls, 100% organic grass fed beef, free range pork, happy chooks, local eggs, and fresh seafood, all sourced close by and all as fresh as can be.

The Harissa Roasted Lamb Shoulder burger is a fave with smokey-spiced lamb shoulder, mint and kale slaw, garlic hummus, aioli and red onion. If one simply isn’t enough go with Joe’s Got The Blues because a) it’s got blue cheese and b) there’s also double beef, double bacon, truffle aioli and lots of salad (for balance guys).

Vegans and vegetarians never fear, you too will be well looked after at Main Street. There’s a Vego Pattie burger made from beetroot, quinoa and halloumi and a Vegan Jackfruit burger with peanut satay, bean sprouts, carrot, spring onion, coriander, sesame soy dressing and sriracha hot sauce (we have it on good authority, it’s delicious too).

That’s not all though, there’s milkshakes and not just any old milkshakes. Caramelised Banana with a (optional) shot of Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey or Vanilla & Malt with Frangelico Hazelnut Liqueur. It’s all the fun of your childhood mixed with one of the best things about being an adult. Cheers to that!

So, if a balanced meal in the form of burgers and boozy milkshakes is calling your name, look no further than Main Street Burger Bar in Broadbeach. It’s the perfect addition to the newly renovated restaurant strip.

You can park for three hours for free at the Oasis Shopping Centre, which is plenty of time to down a burger and a craft beer or two.

LOCATION: Shop GO.53, Oasis Shopping Centre, Victoria Ave, Broadbeach
HOURS: 11.30am to 9pm daily

Your mouth will water in anticipation for Betty’s Burgers, Betty’s Classic; angus beef, lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese and Betty’s special sauce, go deluxe and add pickles and bacon. Enjoy with a side of crispy onion rings and a Peanut Butter thick shake.

For the sweet tooth the Concrete Ice cream is a must, “concrete ice cream” you say? Rich, creamy frozen custard set and scraped from the barrel then mixed with the Betty’s goods like hot fudge sauce, dello mano classic brownie, Krispy Kreme doughnuts or marshmallow sauce.

With a menu offering the goods how cold you not be smiling ear to ear. A fun and funky fit out that can be described as french provincial meets a 70’s summer, bright bubbly staff and even a beach comber in store. Betty’s Burgers will be your new found addiction and forever happy place.

BAO Burgers

They’re soft, silky and filled with the tastiest of goodness and they are quickly gaining popularity as the perfect snack on the go. Luckily for Isle of Capri goers, BAO Burgers has recently opened and they are serving some of the best baos around.

In case you’ve never had the pleasure of putting one in your mouth, baos are a kind of Chinese sandwich made with a pillowy steamed bun and filled with anything from bacon and eggs to soft shell crab.

Found inside Capri on Via Roma and set against a sparkling, boat-laden backdrop, BAO Burgers is a street food style of venue with both dine in and takeaway options, a first for the complex.

If you’re a boatie, it’s a great takeaway option for cruising the high seas or a canal cruising picnic. Moor up and hoe down captains.

Owner Shane McDowall (former owner of The Boatshed in Currumbin) aimed to open something unique to the area that would be seen as an easy takeaway option but could also be enjoyed as a sit down meal, paired with fries and a gelato milkshake (yes please).

Obviously though, the most important thing is the baos themselves and the many delicious flavour options there are to choose from.

Starting with a breakfast bao. Choose from fillings of bacon, egg and tomato chutney or something a little bit fancier like the smoked salmon, Japanese egg, spinach and orange aioli.

Stick around until lunchtime and opt for the fried Szechuan chicken bao with coleslaw and sriracha aioli or a vego option featuring salt and pepper mushroom or halloumi.

For those who aren’t keen on the gluten side of things, baos are also available as sweet little salads.

Oh and in perhaps the greatest bao-related news of all time, there’s soon to be dessert baos on offer including a deep fried bao with mango, pineapple, toasted coconut and vanilla bean gelato.

It’s time to bao down to the tasty little morsels that are about to take over Isle of Capri. How many can you do?

LOCATION: Capri on Via Roma, 15 Via Roma, Surfers Paradise
HOURS: 9am to 5pm daily
