The Gennari Group

Twenty years ago, Gold Coast residents Patrik and Danielle Gennari, opened a Café Opera and since then have established eight highly successful local restaurants on the Gold Coast.   
It can’t be argued that The Gennari Group are one of the most successful restaurant groups on the Gold Coast. One of The Gennari Group’s greatest restaurant successes is the iconic Koi Dining + Lounge Bar, situated right in the heart of Broadbeach. 

This restaurant set the benchmark for sophisticated yet casual dining 11 years ago, and is still the busiest restaurant in Broadbeach. 

Koi is regarded as an industry leader.

 

In 2008, the stylish and chic Glass Restaurant, located by the water at Marina Mirage, was added to The Gennari Group’s impressive portfolio.

With stunning views over the marina, a world class fit-out and award winning spectacular cuisine, Glass Restaurant epitomizes elegance and sophistication.

With internationally renowned Executive Chefs, who adapt the menu with the change of seasons,and an assemblage of sassy young staff providing a seamless dining experience, Glass Restaurant won the 2017 Best Contemporary Formal Australian Restaurant in Queensland and NT and went on to win bronze at the Nationals.

 

 In 2016, Patrik Gennari brought his vision of a tap and grill house in Broadbeach to life and created The Loose Moose. 

With a huge menu specialising in Canadian tastes and possibly the best restaurant fit-out on the Gold Coast, The Loose Moose is more like an experience than a restaurant. 

 

The latest instalment for The Gennari Group is Roosevelt Lounge, an ultra-exclusive lounge bar, located next to the Loose Moose. 

Roosevelt Lounge is small, intimate and elegant in a luxurious setting offering a lavish dining experience with a twist. 

This extravagant bar was created for the sophisticated well-heeled thirty-plus age group, giving them somewhere to go until late. 

 

“It’s exhilarating and exhausting establishing restaurant concepts, but it is also deeply satisfying seeing our staff family flourish

during the challenges as we expand our portfolio,” says Patrik.
