D' La Rosa

A colourful Spanish Fusion Tapas on Mermaid Beach, D' La Rosa's infectious lust for life will have you coming back time and again.

Not the kind of place to blend in with the crowd, D'La Rosa makes a bold splash in the district with their illuminated restaurant. Come nighttime, it glows inside and out like a sparkly disco ball thanks to an impressive range of neon lights. So come on down, relive all the hedonism of the eighties and reunite with loved ones for a meal with plenty of soul.

The menu is alive with Latina goodness and really leans into the sharing style with all kinds of small plates to try, They might be small, but so much care has gone into each and every dish to ensure they burst with flavour. The chimichurri steak, for instance, is complimented by a zesty herb sauce whilst the kingfish ceviche comes with revitalising accompaniments and squidgy eggplant is grilled with honey and vegan cheese for a sweet and salty treat.

Another specialty of the region is the humble taco, and you have the choice between marinated chicken, halloumi and local snapper for the filling. Finally, if you want to raise a toast to a brilliant new find, do so with a Mermaid Beach or Pomegranate Sour cocktail; these bad boys will keep you in the summer mood all year round.
