Piato Mediterranean Restaurant

Piato sits at The Pier Marina on Pierpoint Road in Cairns City, on the lovely waterfront in tropical north Queensland. A Mediterranean restaurant in a great marina-side location, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality, flavour-packed Mediterranean cooking — combined with a relaxed atmosphere and lovely water views, the kind of accomplished spot that's become a genuine favourite for a meal by the water.

The appeal is that combination of quality, flavour-packed Mediterranean food, a good drinks offering and a beautiful marina-side setting at The Pier, ideal for a relaxed lunch, a special dinner or drinks with lovely water views. Mediterranean dining in a gorgeous waterfront location is a real draw, and Piato has clearly won over both locals and visitors.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 1,000 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular waterfront restaurant fills up over weekends and the tourist season, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're after a table with the marina views, dining with a group, or visiting Cairns in peak season.
