Located on site at the Cotton Beach Resort, restaurant Black Oak Casuarina is a popular dining destination for both resort guests and locals of the Northern Rivers. Set back off the road, this sophisticated venue radiates a leisurely holiday ambiance, offering plenty of space to unwind with drinks among suave vintage style décor, with chandeliers casting warm light across the room and wide windows providing a tropical outlook. Catch up with friends over some afternoon tapas of fried haloumi with house pesto, chilli prawns and housemade dips with toasted ciabatta, or dine for a feast, enjoying dishes such as crispy skin barramundi with sweet corn purée, steamed greens and tempura zucchini flowers. Be sure to save room for a blueberry and apple pie and a sneaky espresso martini.
