Our Menus
Head Chef, Amber Doig, brings a wealth of experience to The Butler & Juanita’s, with her innovative Mexican seafood offerings.
Each dish is a masterpiece, marrying the bounty of Australia’s coastline with complex flavours inspired by Mexican ingredients and techniques.
Highlights from the menu include the ‘divorced fish’, tostadas, lobster scrambled eggs and Achiote red rice. The Butler is also a proud supporter of local community heroes Wayside Chapel, donating $1 from every confit duck carnita dish sold.
Our world-class cocktail menu promises an experience that is quintessentially Butler – familiar yet surprising, traditional yet innovative, and always unforgettably delicious. Additionally, the wine list champions both local and international drops.
Our incredible menu was also won a 5 Plate Rating in the 2023 Restaurant & Catering Hostplus Awards for Excellence>
