Il Vento

Named after The Wind which blew us from the shores of Italia into the heart of the Sunshine Coast, Il Vento brings to Mooloolaba traditional Italian cuisine to be enjoyed in a modern seaside setting.

The only restaurant in Mooloolaba equipped with a wood-fired oven, Il Vento promises to bring the people of Mooloolaba perfect wood-fired pizzas and fresh handmade pasta. Think authentic ingredients imported straight from the regions of Parma and Napoli, homemade pastas passed down from Nonna to son, and the use of local produce that all Australians know and love.

At Il Vento, we welcome every and all passers-by to sneak a peek inside. Thanks to our location on The Wharf with sweeping views of the Mooloolaba Marina, we can provide whatever our diners seek, whether that be a large family-style banquet or a quiet dinner for two.

Impressive pasta-making skills aside, Ibrahim also brings with him traditional cooking techniques first honed at Il Verde, Il Vento successful sister restaurant in Brisbane’s Bowen Hills.
