The best dining we have found on the mountain. Strict age policies were appreciated by our group. Very much enjoyed, will recommend and will be back.

A lovely venue. The salmon entree was to die for. The poached fish was a bit mushy but the steak was lovely. The smoked chocolate mousse with honey smoked ice cream only tasted of smoke so wouldn’t have that again.

In one word: Disappointing. After reading the rave reviews, we were excited for a great night to end our trip to the Gold Coast. Service was … well, lacking and ambiance was non existent. Our food was dropped off so quickly that we couldn’t order another drink. The heirloom tomatoes were okay (lots of sauce with very few tomatoes), the risotto was mushy and most definitely not al dente. The eye fillet was not bad, however the potatoes were excellent. The star of the show was the dessert. We won’t return and are sure there are other restaurants on the mountain that would offer a better overall experience. (I don’t think it was a $300 meal (for two people).

Sensational! Incredible dining experience; beautiful airy space; attentive service; next level food - divine - a master chef. We enjoyed crab, courgettes, snapper, steak, avocado panna cotta, white chocolate cheesecake. All flawless & delicious. Price reasonable for such fine dining.

Pethers is just a gem on Tamborine Mountain. We have been here the second time and were absolutely impressed of the consistent high level of hospitality.

Just perfect in terms of service, food and location. Outstanding the Avocado Pannacotta. Incredible what the chef has prepared. Only little issue: noise level is too high when all tables are booked. Something to absorb noise like some pictures at the wall or a few carpets would help. We definitely will come back.

The locally grown ingredients and domestically sourced foods was absolutely divine. A massive compliments to the chef for his ingenuity and creative menu. I wish the wine menu indicated what paired well with the food menu. Special mentions to Madonna who served us all night…she’s absolutely kind and amazing & undoubtedly elevated the whole experience for us.
