Sitting in the hills behind Patong Bay, Sizzle rooftop restaurant offers open views of the Andaman Sea from the top of the Avista Hideaway resort. The menu features the best choices of imported Japanese wagyu and Australian beef grilled to taste. Lobster thermidor, French Celine N2 oysters, tiger prawns, gambas al ajillo and grilled Spanish octopus enlivened with tasty chorizo are featured. Sizzle is popular with guests celebrating a party, reception or wedding with DJ Tommy’s Mediterranean club music, a great selection of tiki and sundowner cocktails, craft beers and extensive premium liquor and wine lists. Begin with a choice of fresh starters. Featured are hamachi tiradito, a Japanese Peruvian taste of thinly sliced yellowtail tuna in vibrant citrus sauce or fresh crab salad gazpacho, perfect for a humid tropical night. Burrata panzanella salad with Italian creamy mozzarella, a selection of juicy tomatoes and fresh basil prepares for the main course. Chef Alvaro De La Puerta presents delicious Australian wagyu tenderloin and Okayama black bean signature tenderloin both grilled to perfection. Simona Fianchini provides magic as sommelier and guide to good tastes. With a very large wine list with labels from Argentina to Italy and South Africa to Spain, you might be served Portuguesa 12 Knights, a full-bodied red wine with touriga nacional, tinta roriz and syrah grape varieties.
