Cooee

With sweeping views and exquisite seasonal seafood, this is modern Western Australian dining at its best.

It’s a big call, but surely this is one of the best restaurant views in town. From the outdoor terrace, the Perth CBD sparkles over the Swan River, and yellow-lit train carriages snake across the Narrows Bridge. The Cooee experience befits the billion-dollar views, with a menu focused on fresh and seasonal Western Australian produce, showcasing a commitment to sustainability. A lobster roll, served with pickled lettuce and spiced tomato sauce, is a cracking start (order two, it’s too good to share). Beef tartare – in vogue across Perth – is one of the best; rich, complex and doused in a tasty romesco sauce. Shark Bay crab linguine, in a cherry tomato bisque, exceptional. Equally impressive: the staff. Attentive, friendly and courteous, they add another layer of comfort to the venue’s warm and welcoming interiors. An exemplar of modern West Australian dining.
