Very nice Italian restaurant at the star. We had a very nice table on the balcony during the sun set. The food was very good although the wait time was extremely long as well as the waiters giving us the wrong order to begin with. Overall the food was quite worth it, I ordered the beef Bolognese.
I had dinner at Cucina Vivo with my partner and mother in-law while staying at The Star casino and were very happy with our meals. We ordered the Pappardelle Funghi, Fettuccine Carbonara and the
Calzone Napolitano, all were delicious but our pick of the meals was the calzone. Meal sizes weren’t over the top large but definitely enough to see you full. Staff were wonderful and very attentive.
Always beautiful food every time we come here! The menu isn’t always the same but I had the gnocchi with braised duck and the dark chocolate semi freddo this time. Lovely atmosphere and a staff. A must when visiting Broadbeach.
Probably one of the best meals I had ina while. Service was one of the bestand I had no idea it was a no gratuityrestaurant, which I never heard of inAmerica, but I still wanted to tipanyways.
Congratulations Cucina Vivo, great service and great quality food and drinks
Your team of staff are genuine and caring and made to feel welcome
Everyone’s meal was great including the children’s meal. Not skimpy either, and good selections of wines, beers, cocktails etc
Well done guys, keep up the fantastic team , yours is a good journey
Lovely food and excellent service.
The feel of the place was more casual and informal than I had imagined, being a key restaurant within the casino complex.
I have the veal scallopini, which was excellent.
He had the pork cutlet, which was spectacular &, cooked to perfection. Funnily, his dish was short on vegetables, but mine had plenty to share.
His came with amazing little bites of potato gnocchi or similar, which were just fabulous, again enough for me to share.
Our garlic pizza we had for entree was delicious too.
Would have given it a 5 but there was just something intangible about the atmosphere which underwhelmed me.
Good service and feel in the restaurant. Food was good, not life changing, but good. The D.O.C cocktail was one of the best cocktails I’ve had, so long as you like lemon! Would recommend.
Always great service, great ambience, and definitely one of the best places for Italian on the coast! We come quite often and have never been unsatisfied with the experience.
Service top quality, lovely ambiance in restaurant good variety on menu loved our pasta dishes and dessert will be back again recommend too friends
Good Italian food generous serving, classic dishes, customer service was good and décor fantastic. Definitely would go again and the veal was amazing
Outstanding service and such friendly and professional staff. The food was out of this world and there was a great selection of amazing drinks to choose from. We will definitely be going back to Cucina Vivo next time we are at The Star.
Meal was great!! Everything came at once and the mains tasted really amazing. Also appreciated the cannoli - it's really good portion wise as well.
Ps. Get the star membership to keep costs down ;)
The lamb rack was exquisite and super tender and definitely a memorable dish but with a $49 price tag if paying the full price. Fortunately we had the benefit of significant member and restaurant discounts. I also had a slice or two of the pizza topped with prosciutto which had a nice thin crispy base. A very tasty rocket salad was ordered to share. We also sampled the mixed dessert platter which was enjoyable. Service was excellent with enthusiastic staff. A wonderful dining experience overall and I would recommend for that special occasion as noted by the number of tables celebrating birthdays.
Flavorful and delicious Italian. The salads, especially the panzanella was fresh and tasty. The veal marsala was on point, the carbonara needed some fresh cracked pepper which wasn't offered and should've been so I had to ask, but otherwise very good and creamy. Arancini was crisp, melty and great as were the pizzas. The dessert however was just ok, tiramisu was disappointing and bland. Service was friendly. We'll be back for more, but might skip dessert.
Wonderful food,service,choice and atmosphere.Happy with all we ordered,maybe the two down falls being the carbonara had a touch too much fat around the bacon and it wasn't crispy or tasty!!
The tortellini was a touch basic,small serving maybe underwhelming compared to what we all had ,
which consisted of a spaghetti marinara and veal scallopini all brill..I would say i love Al Dente but the spaghetti could have been a touch more cooked..but very minor!!The Focaccia I'd def recommend!!It was a bit busy and clearly there were new staff training/learning so a few things got muddled up but it didn't affect the food!!All in all a lovely meal and very satisfying,will def return.
A beautiful restaurant, love the aesthetic! Wait staff were super friendly and very helpful when we had questions about particular items. I ordered the gnocchi, food came quickly and was absolutely delicious. Definitely will come back to try more from their menu.
