We loved everything about this restaurant. The location is great, right on the waterfront. The service was friendly and knowledgeable - with very good wine recommendations and descriptions of items on the menu. We went for the dégustation menu at lunch, which we thought was great value. Everything was delicious (even the tofu, which I generally avoid, and particularly the Moreton Bay bug roll).
Amazing lunch selection menu. Every course including palate cleanser was on the mark. When you consider the view and service to go with it, its easily worth the $65 per person. Will definitely go back again!
Went here with the partner for a weekday lunch. We were fortunate to find a table for lunch having not made a prior reservation.
We ordered the Isaan Sausage Hot Dog (delicious, hot dog with a modern twist), Tamarind Curry (ordered this with naan, onku wished we ordered a side of rice as well to mop up the flavourful sauce), Pipis in XO (fresh, spicy, crispy noodles). For dessert, we had the Roasted Rjce (refreshing and textural).
Service was efficient and friendly. Indoor seating with gorgeous views of the waves crashing on the beach. Note entrance is beach-level, to the side of the lifesaving club. Recommend reservations ahead of time if able as it can get quite popular. Reasonable to higher price end. Casual ambience.
Overall, an impeccable lunch experience with gorgeous views.
We had dinner here, wow! what a restaurant with simply amazing tasting food, a excellent drinks menu, and fantastic attentive staff.
It has been particularly poor weather as I write this review, however sunset at that restaurant would be amazing as you are practically sitting on the shore.
I would HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this restaurant, the food was so delicious and tasty, you will not be disappointed!
I WILL DEFINITELY BE COMING BACK!

Oh my... The location location... & the bug rolls, actually location location. We enjoyed an assortment of dishes here but our favourite were the bug rolls; a whole bug tail lighty battered & deep fried, siracha mayo, a sliver of lettuce served in a sweet Asian roll, easy to eat & ever so tasty. We could have devoured 3 or 4 each. A simple dish that I have had several times before at home & other establishments served with prawns or lobster but my first time served with beer battered bugs. When I return, & I shall, I know to order nothing but the bug rolls! But, did I mention the location?! With the waves almost lapping the ocean side facade of the restaurant which persists along almost the entirety of one side of the restaurant, the water & sand is a mere few steps away. I loved the simplicity of the white walls & the white ceiling embellishments resembling the waves that were calling us to dine here. (I didn't like the painting of the rickshaw on the beach although i understand the pun & the intent). Looking forward to returning in the future.
Absolutely a stunning place, perfect for lunch, overlooking the ocean, with a nice cocktail. The menu here mainly pan Asia fusion, very delicious and interesting, great cocktails menu, and very nice service.
Would definitely want to revisit next time we’re in town.
From the moment we were seated, we were immediately put at ease. The view is just sensational.. only a few minutes passed by before our cocktails arrived at the table and we placed our meal orders. The tiki is a genius cocktail - delicious - and they also make a mean mojito.
The bug roll - which does look expensive on first blush - is absolutely sensational. The quality is superb: a light, crunchy batter over a delicious portion of bug meat, cooked just-right - the bun and accompanying sauce perfectly complemented the delicate flavour of the bug.
Our prawn yellow curry was very, very tasty. The sauce is deeply flavoursome, with ample heat.
Rick Shore's take on kaarage chicken was very tasty, too.
Servings of sides such as rice and roti were generous. No room for dessert.

Stylish Gold Coast Restaurant in a fantastic spot, capturing the picturesque beach to city views.
We visited Rickshores for a special birthday lunch. There was 10 of us, so we decided on the set meal package.
🍽 The food has a subtle Asian fusion that makes it quite unique. Almost every dish was something, I had not yet tried or experienced before. I was so pleasantly surprised with the impressive quality and flavours.
The granita palette cleanser was a very nice touch too.
📍The location could be up there with the absolute best of the Gold Coast. It looks right out to the water where you’ll see the break and surfers catching waves. To the other side, you look straight out along Burleigh beach and towards the city. There is a lot of parking nearby, but with various rules and signs – be wary.
💲 The menu is pricey, but you’re receiving dishes of a high quality and in an absolute prime location. So it was all worth it!
💚 Extensive drinks menu
💚 Unique, flavorsome dishes
💚 Friendly and attentive staff
💚 Fantastic location with breathtaking views
🚫 Quite warm sitting next to the window on a sunny day. Be warned!

This has to the best dining room in Australia, if not the world. Nothing compares to watching the waves rolling through to burleigh beach at your eye level as you enjoy your meal.
Food is great, service a touch off for us. Took a while to get served etc but other than that we had a fantastic lunch.
Must try : The bug roll
Just Devine. Perfect location. Food perfectly matched to the vibe of the location. Excellent service. Each dish was magnificent. Can’t wait to go back.
If you are visiting the Gold Coast this is a must visit. Thai food with an Australian twist and literally right on the beach. The food is faultless and the waiting staff are helpful and knowledgeable. Everything I tried, I loved. I will be back! #casualdining #thaifood #kaarage
Picturesque and absolutely exquisite food - it doesn’t get much better than that! If you visit. Do not leave without trying their famous bug rolls. They are to die for! Their large meals are designed to share as well - making RS the perfect choice for group gatherings, families, and even couples and girlfriend get togethers.
A spectacular journey of Asian fusion. Our Waiter enquired of our favourite fish from the set menu. No decision was agreed. The food is spectacular, the views would be too on a fine day. Suburban and attendance was fantastic. Well done all. You need to book.
The best meal we had on the Gold Coast. Had the set menu, and worried there wouldn’t be enough food, but it was perfect! The views were sensational, venue was super trendy and staff were really fun and lovely. We had a great time and will have to remember Rick Shores for future trips.
Went up North just for a quick weekend trip. Saw that Rick Shores looked nice and had good atmosphere so just walked in for lunch. The host was extremely welcoming and accommodating finding us a seat with a nice view. The service here is exceptional and the food is another level. This is one of the best lunches I've ever had, all the dishes were incredibly delicious with the Bug Rolls as a standout and the Lobster Dumplings. The view/location and vibe is outstanding with easy parking too. The price isn't too over the top, well deserved tip for such a great experience, I'll be recommending Rick Shores to my friends and I look forward to returning
we ordered the $79 set meal for each of us and all dishes tasted amazing- except for the duck which was too creamy, and honestly not as good as the other dishes.
the scallop and crab pie and the oyster is not part of the set but they are both so flavourful and must try if you’re visiting.
overall friendly staff and nice atmosphere to hang out with family & friends. the best dish for today must be the sashimi!! it was the best and tasted fresh and appetising!
Come for the view, stay for the food, but only once because of the prices. We had a banquet for 11 and cocktails, and it was great.
The food is basic but tasty and well presented. Fit out is dark and cavelike with great service and staff. The highlight is very clearly the ocean and beach views.
Expect $150 pp for a fun night out for a special occasion.

Wow! What an experience! This has become a “must attend” dining experience on the GC. In an area overloaded with fads and lofty dining experiences this made other restaurants look and feel pedestrian.
The view… ocean level Burleigh looking back toward Surfers Paradise, and even just people watching as the swimmers and surfers go about their day, their relaxation is contagious.
The wine and beverage menu is spot on. They have drinks for everyone and they are well selected including non alcoholic beverages for our table’s drivers.
The service was exceptional, from being greeted to farewell. Always courteous, always polite, we battled to hear them through the masks, but this is not their fault.
Finally, we ate nearly everything on the menu. The food was fresh, well cooked and each dish a sensational mixture of tastes. All are served to be enjoyed by one or many, such a simple yet thoughtful touch.
You are crazy if you don’t get here… I am well traveled and this is one of my top 5 after todays lunch.
What an amazing Asian fusion restaurant. We got a window seat and loved the view. All the food was perfect. I recommend Pork Skewers. the It’s worth all the money. Definitely go if you can.
