Perched up the top of the 12-storey glass tower that is Riley (one of Cairns' three Crystalbrook Collection hotels), this smart, eco-conscious restaurant boasts 270-degree vistas of the city and the sea: it's the highest restaurant in Cairns. The contemporary Mediterranean mezze, share plates and mains – heavy on local and artisanal produce – are as delectable as the views.
Rocco donates any unused food to OzHarvest, which distributes food to local people in need.
