These sophisticated spaces are transforming special occasions into unforgettable memories, combining capital-city elegance with that distinctive Gold Coast magic.
Signature Dining Experiences
Each venue offers a completely unique culinary journey designed to cater to different celebration needs. At Kiyomi, guests can experience Japanese culinary precision in a standalone private dining sanctuary seating 10 to 16 guests. The experience centres around a Sake Master who guides diners through four meticulously crafted menus, ranging from sculptural sushi grazing tables to an immersive 10-course Omakase journey.
Nineteen at The Star elevates dining above it all, accessible via a dramatic ribbon staircase to a mezzanine sanctuary accommodating up to 26 guests. Here, a highly skilled culinary team creates modern Australian masterpieces that rival the nation's best restaurants.
For those craving authentic Cantonese cuisine, Uncle Su presents three ornately appointed dining rooms accommodating up to 36 guests, perfect for both family celebrations and corporate gatherings where the food becomes the conversation centrepiece.
International Flavours and Grand Celebrations
Cucina Vivo transports diners to the Amalfi Coast with passionate Italian dishes designed for sharing, seating up to 20 guests in an atmosphere that captures the warmth of Mediterranean summers.
Garden Kitchen & Bar's Conservatory offers botanical elegance and natural light for up to 40 guests in a semi-private sanctuary celebrating modern Australian excellence. The space features semi-sheer blinds that provide whispers of privacy while maintaining the light-soaked ambiance perfect for sun-kissed soirées throughout the year.
For larger, multi-generational gatherings, Harvest Buffet's private dining room seats 25 to 44 guests with full access to an abundant culinary landscape. The extensive variety ensures every guest - from adventurous toddlers to discerning grandparents - finds something to delight their palate.
Expert Tips for Perfect Private Dining
According to Richard Gush, General Manager of Food & Beverage and Events at The Star Gold Coast, successful private dining experiences begin with matching the right space to your occasion. "A business lunch has different needs to a birthday celebration or anniversary dinner," he emphasized.
Gush recommends booking three to four weeks in advance to secure preferred venues and dates, allowing sufficient time for menu customisation discussions with chefs or wine pairing consultations with the property sommelier.
For corporate events, he suggests that lunch sessions at venues like Kiyomi's private dining room strike the perfect balance between spectacle and substance, maintaining professionalism while providing an impressive experience.
The most crucial advice for hosts? "Relax and enjoy," says Gush. "You've chosen private dining so you can focus on your guests, not logistics. Trust our team to handle the details - that's our job."
With these six exclusive dining sanctuaries, Gold Coast locals no longer need to search far for sophisticated celebration spaces that deliver both spectacular experiences and convenient accessibility.
