Spoil dad with the ultimate Father’s Day feast at The Star

"Hi Hungry, I'm Dad". Ah, the classic response from any well-meaning dad at the mere mention of a grumbling stomach. If you've got a father figure who thrives on slinging questionable jokes, rocks some classic dad attire and is renowned for giving a soul-warming hug, chances are you'll want to spoil them this Father's Day on Sunday September 4. If you're stuck on ideas, we urge you to put down the stubby cooler and jocks and instead book your old man a table at one of The Star Gold Coast's many Father's Day celebrations. From cool and casual to first class and fancy, The Star's slew of restaurants has everything you need to make this Father's Day extra special.


Calling all new dads, old dads, step-dads, grandpas and pops. The Star is rolling out the Father’s Day red carpet and welcoming you and your loved ones to feast together at one of its many tantalising restaurants. If you’re partial to a scenic view of the Pacific, may we recommend booking a table at Nineteen at The Star for lunch from 12:00–3:00 pm? This elegant destination is inviting dads to select from the indulgent a la carte menu or enjoy one of the Father’s Day specials available. From there, you can sit back, sip on a cold one and enjoy sweeping views of the picturesque Gold Coast skyline. If your papa prefers Italian, look no further than Cucina Vivo, which is serving dads with the full Italian experience. Here, you can select from the Italian-inspired a la carte menu, or dads can purchase the member’s only surf-and-turf-style sautéed veal scallopini and prawn, and receive a complimentary schooner of Birra Moretti whilst dining. We’ll cheers to that! Cucina Vivo is offering a dinner service on Sunday, so book your table online and be sure to become a free member while you’re there to make the most of the deals and specials on offer.

If you’re after something a little more low-key, lead your dad down the garden path to Garden Kitchen & Bar, where the team is serving a seasonal menu ripe for the picking. Whether you’re planning an intimate meal with dad, or a large gathering with the whole family, you’ll be in good hands with the team at Garden Kitchen & Bar. Open for lunch and dinner on Father’s Day, you and dad can dine on the complete a la carte menu. Your dad can also enjoy a limited-edition members-only surf-and-turf Stockyard striploin and confit cuttlefish while washing it down with a complimentary schooner of Stone & Wood. Last but certainly not least, treat dad to a culinary trip to Tokyo at Kiyomi, where they can feast on mouth-watering sashimi and indulgent foie gras. Kiyomi’s Father’s Day dinner service offers the complete a la carte menu, a $150 set menu and, for those seeking the ultimate indulgence – the September special, which includes 2GR rib-eye full-blood wagyu MBS 7 with wasabi butter and a complimentary schooner of Kirin Ichiban. Sorry, let us just wipe the drool off our chins.

So, what are you waiting for? Head online or email [email protected] and prepare for your Father’s Day feast today! Don’t forget, if your dad can’t make lunch or dinner, you can still spoil them with a gift card that is redeemable across The Star Sydney, The Star Gold Coast and Treasury Brisbane’s collection of award-winning hotels, restaurants, bars, cafes as well as select premium retail partners!
