Set inside the JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa in Surfers Paradise, Citrique is the resort’s signature restaurant — and Friday and Saturday evenings are when the kitchen pulls out all the stops with its Signature Seafood & Grill Buffet. Executive chef Paul Smart leads the two chef-hatted restaurant, and the buffet showcases modern Australian cooking at its best: fresh oysters, prawns, mussels and a rotating seafood selection alongside grilled premium meats, salad and sides drawn from the resort’s own JW Garden, and a generous dessert station to finish. The setting is contemporary and relaxed, with floor-to-ceiling windows opening onto the gardens — equally at home for a date night, a family celebration or a long catch-up with friends.
