At FINS we cook food in an innovative and nutritious manner.
To achieve this we use fresh local herbs (often from my home), spices, wines and pastes.
I serve organic foods when available.
Our seafood is fresh and local.
Whenever possible our fish is line-caught.
FINS cuisine is not traditional, but rather my interpretation of the best flavours and cooking methods discovered during my travels and guest chef appearances.
Our wine list has been compiled to enhance the menu.
FINS is a restaurant but really you are a guest in our home.

“Fins lives the dream of the far north coast’s famously, and envied, relaxed lifestyle. It’s Thursday night and five weeks since Steve Snow opened Fins on a shopping and restaurant row at Salt, a billion-dollar resort and beachside housing development just below the Queensland border.” Read more…
Delicious Magazine Dec 07/Jan 08
“As you’d expect from one of the country’s leading seafood chefs, Steve is fanatical about the quality of his catch: “If I’m not excited about the fish, I don’t want to do it anymore.” All the fish is line-caught where possible (never farmed), with the highlights of the fantastic local catch including jewfish, mahi mahi and pearl perch, as well as eastern king prawns. The menu’s international reach reflects Steve’s love of travel. Fins devotees will be happy to see favourites such as the Portuguese dishes of seafood cataplana (like bouillabaisse) and arroz de marisco (seafood rice) make the move, too; alongside new recipes such as fish poached in a master stock served with deep-fried lotus root and lemon myrtle…” Also in this months delicious. magazine Steven Snow shares some of his classic recipes, including Snowy’s fish, Arroz de marisco, snapper cakes, salt & pepper squid with preserved lemon mayonnaise and the divine flourless chocolate torte.
Brisbane good food guide
“One of the country’s finest seafood chefs, Steve Snow, has relocated from Byron Bay to this billion-dollar beachside development just 10 minutes south of the Queensland border. The new Fins has a sexy, beachy feel with a backlit Italian marble bar and fine dining garden restaurant. A flexible menu ranges from Brazilian-style tapas to his global classics, including the cataplana for two, a Portuguese bouillabaisse. The laidback vibe encourages eating whatever, from a teriyaki tuna burger at the bar to takeaway tempura-battered fish and hand-cut chips for the beach. Better yet, pull up a marble table, let the assured and knowledgeable staff take charge to recommend wines from clever, international boutique list and inhale the scents of first-class cooking, including fragrant Korean-style BBQ pork and king prawns with a green mango salad and spicy Vietnamese dressing. A fragrantly spiced Moroccan tagine of fish with preserved lemon and dates is seductively complex, yet Snowy’s fish – so-called because that’s how the chef likes it cooked – is nothing more that your choice of fillet cooked with riesling, lemon, parsley, potatoes and green beans. Desserts aren’t always a strong point, but flourless tangelo cake with saffron ice-cream and orange blossom is hard to beat.”
