Juliette's Bistro

Chic resort bistro at Simpson Bay Resort with all-day international dining

restaurant
Resort Dining All-Day Menu Vegetarian Options French-Inspired

Why Go

Juliette's Bistro sits inside the Simpson Bay Resort, Marina & Spa, and it's the kind of resort restaurant that actually earns repeat visits. The menu is broader and more interesting than you'd expect from a hotel dining room — French-inspired dishes alongside international favorites, fresh seafood, wood-fired pizza, and genuine attention to vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. Open from breakfast through dinner, it covers every meal without dropping quality.

The Experience

The atmosphere is casual chic — you can come in from the pool in a cover-up or dress up slightly for dinner, and either feels appropriate. The setting within the resort means a relaxed pace and attentive service without the hustle of a street-side restaurant. The kitchen balances classic comfort food with more creative French-influenced preparations. Breakfast pastries and brunch items are solid, lunch is lighter fare, and dinner brings out the more ambitious plates. It's a smart home-base restaurant for resort guests and worth a visit for anyone in the Simpson Bay area.

What to Try

The panko-crusted red snapper is a standout. Pizza from the kitchen is reliable. Salmon fillet and pasta with chicken are consistent crowd-pleasers. For breakfast, the pastries and international spread set a good tone. The menu changes seasonally, so ask about what's new. Vegetarian and vegan options are genuinely thoughtful rather than afterthought substitutions.

Insider Tip

You don't have to be a resort guest to eat here — walk-ins from outside the resort are welcome. The poolside setting is most pleasant for lunch; dinner has more ambiance as the lights come down. If you're staying at the resort, try the brunch at least once before defaulting to room service.

The Practical Stuff

Open daily 7 AM to 11 PM at Simpson Bay Resort, 37 Billy Folly Road. Moderately priced at $$. Credit cards accepted. No reservations needed for most meals, but dinner during peak season benefits from a call ahead. On-site parking at the resort. Walking distance from Kim Sha Beach.
