Vivaldis Restaurant

Vivaldis Restaurant will spoil your senses with its intimate atmosphere, tropical influenced modern Australian cuisine and impeccable service.

We have a right to be smug… it is almost always outdoor dining weather here in Cairns and our balcony is an exceptionally romantic venue. Taking you up off street level to enjoy the canopy of the giant trees we have a privileged pride of place on the Cairns Esplanade like no other.

Our food is made from scratch. We make all efforts to purchase organically and locally to preserve the flavour and quality of our food. It takes us time to make our dishes. So, we invite you to sit down, relax, and enjoy your food and conversation with your friend, partner and family.
Stay as long as you like we love having you here.

Our piano bar ambience is a friendly, elegant atmosphere. Our delicious tapas menu is available to indulge either after work or after a day enjoying all Cairns has to offer. You will love it so much it will be hard to avoid joining us for dinner…...

Should you make a booking?

YES! We don’t aim to turn over our tables quickly and rush you through your dining experience. So for this reason it is always wise to book and avoid disappointment. You can book online via our website or by calling.

Come enjoy Vivaldis...
