4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 June 2013 NEW

Hidden in the Mount Tamborine forest is this lovely spot. Dont bother using gps to find the place. Get instructions from the venue. Well worth the effort to find. The restaurant is unpretentious with good fresh local produce. The wines are New Zealand centric (Kiwi owners) and the gsrdens are delightful

Thanks for making time to write a review on us... there's lots of lemons and limes on the ground around the trees up in the organic garden. I hope out helped yourself to some, if not do come back and dine with us again soon with a take away bag for them. More

I am a lcoal Travel Agent from the GC...From the moment I contacted Songbirds till the time we checked out...Faultless....Everything was perfect...even the cleaning lady apologetic as she was finishing the room even though we where there before the 2pm check in. The room/bedding/bathroom/outdoors was all just perfect. Loved the gas fire place....could not fault a thing and will definetley... More

I have been twice now for a midweek getaway and Songbirds just keeps impressing me. Location is ideal, accomodation is superb for those much needed romantic times, the food is the best always changing menus and the staff nothing is a too much to assist you for an enjoyable stay. Can't wait for my next visit.

Had heard much about the quality of the food at the restaurant. Our friends booked well in advance. On the night it was very cold and had been raining. The open nature of this restaurant with three sides providing views to the rain forest may be ideal on many occasions but it is not suitable for its elevated position on... More

We visited Songbirds on the evening of 11 /5 for the degustation 7 course menu. The chefs choices on the night included two courses with beef cheek in the dishes and a third course was presented as pork cheek.Not what I would expect to be included in a fine dining experience. The inclusive wines came some time before the meals... More

This was our second time staying at Songbirds and it was exactly as we remembered it. Beautiful luxury accommodation in an amazing rainforest environment. We were the only guests staying both nights so had the added luxury of total seclusion. When we checked in, the service was great. We were recommended to go to Clancy's for dinner (which was great)... More

Had lunch here on a summer drizzly day. The decor is amazing - red and navy against the rainforest is a wonderful contrast. Staff were incredible profession. Despite two weddings taking place whilst we where there, we felt as though we special guests. Loved that the resident birds came in to check us out too. The food was quick and... More

Last night we had the absolute pleasure of staying at Songbirds Rainforest Retreat on Tamborine Mountain and dining in the restaurant to celebrate my birthday. What a wonderful experience. Songbirds, nestled amidst over 50 acres of rainforest and teeming – as the name suggests – with myriad birdlife, is a secluded paradise. Upon arriving we settled into our villa, so... More

Rarely do you find a restaurant with such a beautiful menu. The food was exquisite! And we will be coming back to try more. Recently we have been trying "masterchef" restaurants they are nothing compared with this.
