Why it's worth checking out

SHŌTŌ sits on the Gold Coast Highway at Burleigh Heads, one of the coast's coolest and most beloved suburbs. A stylish Japanese restaurant, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality, contemporary Japanese cooking — the kind of accomplished, atmospheric spot that pairs refined food with a great vibe and has become a genuine favourite in food-savvy Burleigh.

The appeal is that combination of quality Japanese cuisine, a good drinks offering and a chic, characterful setting in a great Burleigh location, ideal for a special dinner, a date or a stylish night out. Burleigh's reputation as a dining destination pairs perfectly with a quality Japanese restaurant, and SHŌTŌ has clearly won over a loyal following.

With a 4.6 rating from more than 1,100 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular Burleigh restaurant fills up on weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're dining with a group, after a table at a peak time, or planning a special night out at Burleigh Heads.
