Gorilla Kebabs

Fast food restaurant

👍👍 The best kebab place in Cairns by far. Clean shop, friendly service, good prices and high quality food. The servings are generous and the ingredients are fresh. The best kebabs we have ever eaten! Believe the 5 star reviews. This place deserves them. We will definitely be back.

The Roti Shack

Takeout Restaurant

👍👍 Absolutely FLAWLESS!!!! I am so glad we discovered this spot before leaving Cairns. Being from the Caribbean and very passionate about the cuisine I was curious as to whether it would hit the spot. As soon as we walked in, the aroma hit us and I knew we were in for a treat! The homemade scotch bonne...

Balaclava Fish

Fish & chips restaurant

👍👍 Don't just take our word for it, read the other reviews. We ordered the basket for two with coral trout which would easily have fed three people. 12:15pm on a Wednesday, plenty of parking and no wait time. At $38 the price was great for the serve sizes and quality received. Balaclava Fish isn't...

evo Burger

Hamburger restaurant

👍👍 I'd say that I've kept coming here ever since I first moved to Cairns. I usually get Spicy EVo classic as you can see at the photo. The burger here is out of this world as well as chips, you can't find the taste of Burger anywhere else than this, I promise. One of the best burger in Cairns. Highly r...

Hello Harry (The Burger Joint) Cairns

Hamburger restaurant

👍👍 Great burger joint on the esplanade. Menu had lots of options and they had beer on tap too. I ordered a FNQ and it was moist and well cooked. Not too saucy and had decent structural integrity. The sweet potato fries were a highlight, they were crispy and seasoned perfectly. A nice place for a casual...

Wotta Bout Fish N Chips

Fish and chips takeaway

👍👍 Simply the best! **N.B*** Pro-Fisherman's note. Highly Recommends 'Coral trout + the Barramundi always fresh,+ well cooked in a superb crunchy batter.

Blue Lagoon Bar

Fast food restaurant

😠 100% would NOT recommend, maybe some of the good reviews on here are from wealthy people staying in the hotels around this venue. This is our large $8.50 worth of Chips. It was tiny! They saw us coming and ripped us off with this laughable serving. It wouldn’t have weighed more than 300g. KFC give...

Nick's Souvlaki

Fast food restaurant

😠 Wish I could give less than 1 star, overpriced, unauthentic gyros I’ve ever had. Had ordered one without onion, and after a 15 min wait, my food was delivered to me with onion and was asked if I “could just pick it out.” Falafel was incredibly dry, disappointing vegan option. Would much rather pay t...

TRINITY BEACH KEBAB HOUSE

Takeout restaurant

😠 A mixed kebab for $16.50! It's gone up in price over 40% and shrunk in size 40%. The only way to justify that kind of price rise is pure greed. Plus, the wraps they are using are thin and dry, not like the way the previous owner used to make them. It's clear they are cutting costs with sub-par ingre...

Babba's

Fast food restaurant

👍👍 I have been meaning to review for a while. Babba's is a family favourite and we love everything on their menu. That's the main reason for giving a five star review. The only thing I would recommend is changing your hours on Google to say that your drive-thru closes at 8:30 and that it isn't open unt...

The Takeaway @ Kewarra Beach

Fish and chips takeaway

😠 What a disgrace. Food wash soggy and over cooked When we called we just got an OH WELL that happens. Not a sorry or anything. But nothing short of $50 of rubbish food. Barely got a handful of sweet potato fries for $6.50. We barely eat out so this was meant to be a treat.

The Burger Barn

Restaurant

👍👍 This is the place to get an old fashioned good Aussie burger. Generous portions, good dine in facilities and a fairly sizeable menu with lots of options. I reckon the Burger Barn will bring back memories of getting take away when you were a kid, and before burgers in Australia were influenced by the...

Ramen Street @ Cairns Central Shopping Centre

Restaurant

👍 Handmade Japanese Ramen, Udon and gyoza. This small store is cozy with limited seating inside. We went for lunch and had a set menu. This allowed us to purchase a main meal and receive 3 gyoza or a can of drink for $14.90, which I think is very reasonable. The main meal gyoza comes with 10 gyoza and...
