Book NowAbout Bistro Suzette
Inside the Sofitel, Bistro Suzette pairs French brasserie tradition with a sprawling weekend seafood spread. Regulars make a beeline for the crustacean counter—heaped with Moreton Bay bugs, Mooloolaba prawns, and oysters shucked over ice. À la carte orders veer toward rich foie gras on warm brioche and Wagyu steak frites, accompanied by French wine while the kitchen brigade works the floor. The meal winds down over crème brûlée torched flat across an oversized shallow dish, ensuring every spoonful catches that crackling sugar crust.
