The tropical climate and rich Australian soil are just part of what goes into every unforgettable piece of Waterbar meat. Each steak is enhanced with a special baste developed in house and flame grilled to order.
We do it this way to ensure tenderness and flavour are the crowning moments of each dish that leaves the pass.
But why
are the steaks
so prestigious?
Driven by beef.
"BY FAR THE BEST STEAK I'VE EVER HAD"
I’m a chef myself and I’ve eaten a lot of steak in my life but this was by far the best steak I’ve ever had. Everything about our meal was perfect and there was so much taste in everything.

A 4TH VISIT"
Returning for a 4th visit to celebrate a birthday. Aside from the great location, atmosphere & perfectly attentive service, Waterbar truly know how to care for Steak and respect how it arrives at the customer. I can echo these comments confidently from my wife & our friends.
"BEST RESTAURANT IN CAIRNS"
We had a table of 12 and were treated like royalty for my husband's 70th. He chose this restaurant from a previous visit.
Our food was some of the best we have had. Highly recommend this restaurant to anybody. Well done.
The Venue
Perched on the large undercover deck of The Pier Cairns centre,
the restaurant gazes directly over to the East Trinity Summit
and shimmering Marlin Marina.
Fancy a cool waterfront breeze as you lap up FNQ's finest fare?
Or perhaps your dream date involves an undisturbed sunset falling over the mountains?
Whichever it is, you're in the right place.
Dry Aged Sirloin
This Yardstick 350g Sirloin comes on the bone.
Grain fed for 150 days - with a marble score of 3+.
Espetada
The Espetada turns heads with a hanging skewer of flavoursome rump, basted and grilled on the skewer, dripping with red wine & chilli.
Ribs
Boasting exotic flavours from Africa and Portugal, the whole menu will excite your tastebuds with the likes of Pork Rib Racks or Prawns Mozambique style with the chef’s special peri peri sauce.
