Why it's worth checking out
Tara Far East Dining & Bar sits on Masthead Way at Hope Island, on the northern Gold Coast near Sanctuary Cove. A much-loved Asian restaurant and bar, it's earned a near-flawless reputation — combining quality, flavour-packed Asian cooking with a great drinks offering and a stylish, characterful setting, the kind of accomplished, sociable spot that's become a genuine favourite.
The appeal is that combination of quality Asian food, a good drinks-and-cocktail offering and a stylish, characterful atmosphere in a convenient Hope Island location, ideal for a special dinner, a meal with friends, a date or a sociable night out. A restaurant that's nailed both its cooking and its atmosphere really stands out, and the near-perfect feedback speaks to a spot that's genuinely delighting its diners.
A 4.9 rating from more than 110 reviews is an excellent result and a strong sign of a well-loved, well-run spot. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular restaurant fills up over weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table at a peak time at Hope Island.
