    The best fresh food in town everything is made and site and the flavour are the best I have eaten anywhere Pizzas and Tapas and the menu is continually updated and an absolute pleasure to dine here, the staff are friendly and go above and beyond to make sure your dining experience is the best you have ever had. Excellent atmosphere for a few drinks and watch the footy as they have TV's setup with Foxtel.

    Sadly, the new owners have dropped the ball. For quite some time Bridges has been the go-to bar of choice for midweek and Friday evening drinks and tapas for our group of friends. Unfortunately, since the new owners have taken over, the wine by the glass portions have been significantly reduced to two mouth-fulls while charging premium prices up to $17 a glass. The tapas menu has also taken a backward step with a number of the previous gluten free options no longer available. Our group of friends is now exploring other options in the Paradise Point area. We will keep you posted on what we find.

    I cannot recommend this place more. Excellent FOH staff, delicious food done by chefs and kitchen staff, funky vibe, and great music. I cannot wait to come here again.

    My Son wanted me to try bridges on Father’s Day, and I could not have been more impressed with his choice. I only write on this forum when I think establishments are deserving of 5 stars. On being welcomed by the friendly staff, we were seated. An exemplary young Lady Georgia, noted our order of 3 different pizzas. Well… the rest is history. The pizzas were exceptional, as was the friendly service, from table to bar. Tonight ( a week later ) i picked up the same pizza in takeaway, and was again impressed. Bravo to the team and management of this business. Loyal customer indeed now

    Went here on Tuesday 11th January for lunch.The restaurant was packed. Noticed NO staff were wearing masks ( all other restaurants and cafes in this area are closed because of covid) . The waitress asked if we were o.k as we walked out. We told her we didn't feel comfortable here with no restaurant staff wearing masks, she gave us a smatrt smile and said " we all have exemptions" . Seems an amazing thing that all the staff in one restaurant have an exemption. Obviously they have no concern for staff or customers. Having a meal where the cooks making your food, and the people bringing you your food and clearing away, taking orders etc are not wearing masks because they all are exempt, is scary to a customer who values his health.

    We were actually surprised with the quality of the food. So well done, the tapas and the signature pizza were amazing. We are at Paradise Point all the time and had never tried this place but now, its a new favourite for the area .

    Great little tapas bar along the Esplanade in Paradise Point. Very accommodating staff who made dining for our group of 10, very easy. Delicious tapas menu, reasonably priced with a huge menu offering a huge range of different food. Woodfired pizza looked to be popular with other diners.

    We dined at this restaurant for dinner. Sicilian & Chicken & Camembert Pizzas were nice, lots of topping, loved the thinner pizza bases. Great vibe & lovely staff!

    Choice Homes had our Melbourne Cup day celebrations at Bridges yesterday, it was such a fun, relaxed day. Everyone had such a fabulous time. The atmosphere was lively, the food was absolutely delicious and the service was impeccible. The staff are always friendly and yesterday worked so well as a team. The girls, Chelsea and Emily serviced the tables to ensure that everyone had a drink or something the eat, the lads behind the bar kept up with our drink orders. Cill the Chef did an amazing job with the food, it was non stop and every dish was well presented, hot and delicious. Thank you for a fantastic day out it was definitely worth it!!

    The tapas we chose were so amazing and scrumptious. Pork Belly Bites and Chilli prawns. The yumminess of the tapas set a high standard before we ate our pizza which seemed a little empty of the mushrooms and chewy. I'd be happy for a meal of tapas next time. Yummy

    Great vibe, best food on the “strip” and attentive and super friendly staff. What more do you want

  • 5/5 Joel D. 6 months ago on Google
    The freshest and best tasting tapas on the Gold Coast without a doubt, drove past this place on the Sunday afternoon just gone and saw it was buzzing with activity and thought I’d have to give it a closer look one day. I’m so glad I did, brilliant service, amazing fresh food with so much variety, ice cold beer and by far the best tasting food I’ve had on the entire Gold Coast. If you are reading these reviews to work out if you should or shouldn’t go then this is your sign to get down there and experience the best food and service there is on the Gold Coast.

    I Hadn’t been to Bridges for months was strolling by and stopped for a drink…… happy to see Stone & Wood on tap, but when I ordered the bruschetta I was sadly disappointed! I just wanted something fresh easy and with flavour…A toddler could do better quality sorry to say but just some tomatoe & and red onion with balsamic is disappointing. Try some fresh basil it would jazz it up and give it so much more flavour and with the option of feta even better. Its a simple dish
