Alfresco Italian Restaurant

Restaurant in Gold Coast

Alfresco Italian Restaurant in Surfers Paradise does proper Italian cooking in a setting that actually feels romantic—dim lighting, attentive service, and the kind of place where the food holds its own. Diners come back for the delicious food and excellent service, and they're quick to mention the restaurant's willingness to accommodate dietary needs, including gluten-free options. It's a spot where the atmosphere matters as much as what's on the plate.

This is a $$$-tier restaurant that works for dates and groups alike. People bring their partners here when they want the night to land right, and they book tables with friends when they want good food without the fuss. One consistent note: order your pasta al dente. You'll find the team accommodating and the room conducive to actually hearing the person across from you—a rarity on the Gold Coast.

Come here when you want Italian that takes itself seriously but doesn't take itself too hard, in a room that gets the small details right.
