For those seeking an unforgettable dining experience on the Gold Coast, Shiraz Persian Restaurant + Bar offers a delicious journey into the heart of Persian cuisine. Located in the bustling hub of Surfers Paradise, Shiraz has been delighting guests since 2011 with its authentic flavours, welcoming atmosphere, and stylish setting.
The menu is a celebration of tradition, featuring everything from smoky charcoal-grilled kebabs and tender lamb cutlets to fragrant saffron rice and slow-cooked stews that taste like they’ve been simmering for centuries (well, almost). Vegan and vegetarian diners are spoilt for choice too, with an extensive range of fresh, flavour-packed dishes that don’t miss a beat. Try the Vegan Gheymey Badenjan (a tangy stew of eggplant, lentils, and mushrooms) or the Loobia Polo (aromatic rice with plant-based mince, green beans, and mushrooms).
For those who love a little variety, banquet menus for two or more guests are a crowd favourite. Sit back, order your drinks and let the Shiraz team take care of the rest. And if you’re all about a good deal, you’ll want to plan your visit around the weekly offers including happy hours, lunch specials, cocktail days, Seafood Sundays and BYO Wine Mondays & Tuesdays (offers not valid during public holidays or QLD & NSW school holidays).
And yes, the desserts are worth saving room for, including Faaloodeh, Bastani Sonati, and vegan Baklava, while a cup of Special Blend Persian Tea makes the perfect companion to end your meal.
The restaurant itself is just as inviting as the food. With seating for over 200 guests, you can choose a cosy indoor table or soak up the Surfers Paradise energy on the alfresco terrace. Add in live entertainment and a bar serving up craft cocktails and local wines and it’s easy to see why Shiraz is the go to spot for date nights, family dinners or celebrations that call for something a little extra.
Convenience is part of the charm too, with free undercover parking right beneath Mantra Wings and the Clifford G:link Station only a two-minute walk away, making Shiraz an easy choice for diners travelling from across the Gold Coast or Brisbane. The venue also regularly hosts corporate events, with full amenities and flexible seating to suit every occasion.
It’s no wonder Shiraz has bagged awards like the Best of Queensland Experience 2024, OpenTable Diner’s Choice, and Tripadvisor’s Traveler’s Choice Award.
Shiraz proves that great food, bold flavours and a lively atmosphere can all come under one roof. Book a table, grab a friend or two and see why this Persian gem is a must-visit on the Gold Coast.
