Restaurant Labart is the flagship dining space from renowned Sydney chef Alex Munoz Labart (Cirrus Dining, Monopole) and his wife Karla. Nestled at the top of Burleigh’s James Street, the 60-seat Restaurant Labart serves a menu of snacks, small plates and larger dishes with an ethos of sustainability, seasonality and simplicity. While the food is the driver, hospitality remains paramount at Labart, creating a vibe that takes a refreshing step away from formality. Think veal tartare with sun-dried tomato, tarragon and potato crisps, through to seared mulloway with peas, dill and horseradish. To finish? Yoghurt sorbet with glazed pear, star anise and milk skin. The menu is underscored by a concise and polished cellar list featuring both smaller Australian producers and notable international winemakers, while giving a respectful nod to biodynamic and natural varieties. There’s also a selection of seasonal cocktails, boutique spirits and craft beers.
