THE AVENUE IS THE HEART OF SURFERS PARADISE NIGHTLIFE.

The Avenue Restaurant is Italian Influenced New York Style.
The main focus at The Avenue Restaurant is on quality and local produce. With the Ferrari of Pizza Ovens which can turbo cook a pizza in 90 seconds, The Tomahawk Steak which is 1.2 kilo of the most succulent meat you will ever eat, The Double Bronx Burger which is a challenge to finish and our signature Crispy Pork Belly on Apple Slaw, there is something for everyone at The Avenue Restaurant in Surfers Paradise. The setting is a New York style Warehouse in the heart of Surfers Paradise

One of only a few places in Australia pouring Carlton Fresh from copper tanks, the only Unpasteurised Beer on tap and with a great mix of Sessional and Craft Beers, just like The Avenue itself full of personality, fresh and original.

The Avenue = A Destination to Dine, Drink and Party!

The food was delicious, cocktails were delightful. The Ink Gin Martini was exquisite. Only blemish was that one meal came out when most of the other diners were finished eating.
