Pasta and Plenty

In Pacific Pines on the Gold Coast, Pasta and Plenty leans into Italian-inspired comfort with a menu made for relaxed meals and easy sharing. It is flavour-first cooking: bowls of pasta in creamy, tomato-rich and seafood-studded guises, and hot-from-the-oven pinsas ready to slice and pass around the table.

The pastas set the tone. Al Fungi folds mushrooms, onions and garlic through a silky cream, while Spaghetti Bolognese brings that slow-cooked depth everyone craves. There is the richness of Carbonara, and Tuscan Chicken Tomato, where pesto sauce, cream and cherry tomatoes cosy up to tender chicken. Premium Pastas turn to the sea: Seafood Marinara brims with prawns, calamari and mussels in homemade Napoli sauce, and Gamberi Rosso layers shrimp, bacon and spinach for a savoury-sweet lift.

Pinsas provide the perfect counterpoint. Go green with the Spinaci E Fetta Pinsa, keep it classic with a Hawaiian Pinsa, or double down on indulgence with a Meat Lovers Pinsa. For something snackable, there are BBQ Chicken Wings and Buffalo Wings, plus a classic schnitzel with chips for pure comfort. Gather friends, share a slice and twirl into a plate of pasta; book in, bring your appetite, and say ciao to plenty.
