Inspired by the cliff-top restaurants of the Amalfi Coast, Cucina Vivo features an outdoor terrace overlooking the newly-renovated pool and is Jupiters’ first outdoor dining venue. Blurring the lines between the inside and the out, it creates the perfect venue for groups to come together over food and wine while enjoying the beautiful Gold Coast weather.

The restaurant, which also features a 16-seat private dining room, is open for dinner five days a week from 5.30pm Tue-Sat, and is also available for group bookings.

Cucina Vivo offers an Italian menu with traditional favourites as well as inspired interpretations of the classics. The centrepiece of the Mediterranean-inspired restaurant is a two-metre long wood-fired oven, with Jupiters’ own pizzaiolo at the helm.

From booking our reservation to the evening itself everything was perfect for our Christmas celebrations. Our waiter Daryl was amazing and catered to our every need, we couldn’t thank him enough at the end of our evening. Food was fabulous of course as was the ambience at the restaurant.

Portions were quite generous, the side dish of fries outstanding. Loved the the Italian wine list. Was disappointed that an Italian vermouth/aperitif Punt e Mes was not available.

I was happy with my main meal (pappardelle) and my dessert (cannoli) but my husband was EXTREMELY disappointed with the size of the carbonara and especially the lemon cake for dessert. I got 3 cannolis for the same price as his dessert and the size I have to agree was absolutely pitiful!! He does not want to return, he had to eat when we got home
