Mietta's Review
Situated on the edge of the Broadbeach restaurant precinct, Chicane is an oasis of peace in this stip of glitz. Its stylish, tableclothed, interior with its high-backed chairs and welcoming feel has views over the park. A well-designed menu and attentive, if slightly rustic, service helps make this one of the Coast's most talked about restuarants. In 06 mains averaged $32.

Other published opinions

Gourmet Traveller 2006 Australian Restaurant Guide "The decor here is coolly urban with plenty of mirrors and white leather banquettes, partnered with a high-speed menu of inventive European bistro fare"

Courier-Mail Goodlife Restaurant Guide 2006 * "Neatly tucked into the busy Broadbeach eat-street, Chicane is a shining light on the Gold Coast culinary scene. Chic and comfortable inside with a small outdoor dining area on the pavement out front, a small bar overlooks the dining room."

Courier-Mail Goodlife Restaurant Guide 05 "Chicane is an elegant little bistro in the heart of Broadbeach which opened in November 2003. With just 75 seats and a well-planned but compact kitchen, Swiss-born chef Kristian Eggleton keeps his menu streamlined and contemporary. The menu falls under the mod-Oz banner"

Gourmet Traveller Australian Restaurant Guide 2005 "Chicane is one of the newest and most talked about restaurants on the Gold Coast. On the edge of the busy Broadbeach restaurant strip, it is a sleek, modern restaurant that offers diners comfortable, high-backed chairs, double-clothed tables and a visually appealing interior. The service, while not ultra-polished, is attentive, friendly and efficient"

Brisbane News Dining Out Guide 2004 "One of the young stars of the coast's dining scene, this minimalist spot, with its double-clothed tables, puts the emphasis firmly on the food."

Brisbane News 06/04 Audra Dunsford score 8/10 "The sleek and stylish bistro, with a tranquil view of Federation Park, is a stone's throw from the glitz of Broadbeach. ... The slick menu is the creation of former Melbourne chef Carolyn Mee, who recently handed over the reins to Swiss-born chef Kristian Eggleton. Kristian will maintain the modern Australian theme, but plans to replace Carolyn's Asian touch with a European twist."
