Was really good before, and now under new management for the last 6 or so months it’s gotten even better. Great atmospheee and vibe with amazing food. It’s not cheap but you definitely get what you pay for and highly recommend it. Friendly staff and the new owner is lovely. Go there - you won’t be disappointed!

About the restaurant

Arrived from Rome in 2014, the Mancini family decided to change their lives and embark on a new and exciting adventure in Australia. After several experiences as Chefs in Italy and also in Australia, Valentina and Otello decide in 2019 to return on the market with a singular hospitality concept that had already been successful in Rome since 2010 . Radici Pasta House, in Italian language “Radici” means roots indicating the intention to offer a cuisine deeply rooted in Italian food culture with a modern accent and an extreme attention to the overall experience. Head Chef Marco Minore, who also joined Radici Pasta House in 2019, with his menu has contributed to giving life to this project which, in addition to the particular chef table seats around the bar, represents something unique in Gold Coast and beyond.

Amazing steak and absolutely fantastic service from our waitress (Shanice?), I think she had only worked with you for a few weeks, but her knowledge of the menu was superb and her recommendations spot on! Can’t wait for our next visit, hopefully Shanoce look after us again!?

Loved Coast! Started with a cocktail on the terrace before moving to the restaurant for a divine dining experience of oysters, house-made bread, prawns, tempura eggplant, mouthwatering steak and the best sides & wine. Amazing staff and top notch service. We’ll be back!

About the restaurant

Recently awarded by tripadvisor as “The Best of The Best” in 2020 & 2021. "Traveller's Choice" in 2022, 2023 & 2024.
"Iran is a country with a diverse geography and ethnic population. It sits at the centre of the former Kingdom of Persia, one of the world’s oldest continuous major civilisations. Iran forms a bridge between the Middle East and the Far East in the centre of the ancient Silk Road, a major trading route which goes back tens of thousands of years.

Persian cuisine has influenced many world cuisines, and has absorbed elements from other cuisines as well. It's no surprise that Persian ingredients such as saffron, pomegranate have made their way into other cuisines! As ancient traders took their wares to the corners of the world, they traded goods, bringing back the eating habits and ingredients from Greece, Rome, Turkey, Russia and India. Today's Persian cuisine traces its roots to ancient Persian ingredients and recipes.
