‘Green Fairy’ reward for early dining

We are rewarding early diners with a complimentary signature cocktail when bookings are made to dine before 7pm.


The prize – an Absynthe Champagne Cocktail valued at $16; a mix of the Restaurant’s finest ingredients including ‘Green Fairy’ Absinthe, creating a unique beverage intended to prime the palate for the dining experience ahead.


The incentive has been introduced to encourage guests to spread their patronage out across the evening. With the popular 7.30-8pm timeslot booked out most evenings, it is a reminder for customers that Absynthe is open from 6pm Monday – Saturday.


Absynthe’s Owner & Award Winning Chef Meyjitte Boughenout says “Rather than turning customers away, we would like to encourage them to dine earlier to ensure they can make their booking. Some guests assume we don’t offer early dining times as we are more fine dining than casual – but we are here ready to go from 6pm”.


Absynthe’s A la Cartemenu is available Monday – Friday for dinner from 6pm and also for Friday lunch from 12pm. The Journey Into Taste degustationmenu is also available each evening with Saturday night being exclusively degustation-only dining.

Bookings are essential and can be made by calling Absynthe Restaurant on (07) 5504 6466.


WHAT – Early bird dining cocktail bonus for reservations made between 6 & 7pm.
OPEN – 6.00pm til late Monday – Saturday, 12.00pm – 2.30pm Friday lunch
