ORZO RESTAURANT HAS CLOSED.

Orzo Restaurant is a contemporary, coastal Italian restaurant spotlighting the freshest local produce, located in the heart of Broadbeach. 

Bringing traditional Italian flavours with a modern twist to the table, Orzo is a truly memorable casual fine dining experience that is certainly a must do on the Gold Coast. 

Orzo's mouthwatering menu features a sumptuous selection of snacks, starters, pasta, mains and sides. Diners will start the feasting festivities off with a range of snacks and small plates like house-made focaccia, natural oysters, Wagyu tartare toast, seared scallops with XO butter, kimchi arancini, Kingfish crudo, Wagyu carpaccio, spiced eggplant parmigiana and fried zucchini blossoms. 

Larger plates include a delicious selection of palate-pleasing pastas like smoked pumpkin and gorgonzola gnocchi, spanner crap and tomato linguine, prawn and fish spaghetti and braised duck and mushroom tagliatelle, alongside mains such as the market fish, BBQ pork chops and charcoal grilled Waygu rump cap. 

Finish off with a hazelnut semi-freddo, tiramisu, house sorbet of the day, affogato or selection of cheeses for those who prefer a savoury finisher. Wash it all down with a premium wine, signature or classic cocktail, beer or spirits. 

Nice to know: Can't decide what to eat? Let Orzo choose! Enjoy a five course tasting menu for 85pp and add the perfect wine pairing for 65pp - just ask your waiter! 

Need to know: There is paid street parking available in surrounding streets.
