The sign out the front advertising lunch specials for $10 grabbed us as we were looking for a late lunch without a big price tag. In comparison with the whole menu, the list of lunch specials is small but still more than enough options to choose from. The wait was very quick, and the meals full of flavour. Even the vegetarian pasta - which in many places can simply taste like a bottle of tomato pasta sauce splashed over spaghetti - was full of flavour and definitely worth a repeat taste. Large restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining. Would definitely stop by again for the lunch special, but perhaps not for other meals as their prices are a little dearer. No real outside dining views. The young waiter was very friendly and helpful but the older gentleman seemed a little gruff.

I've dined at La Porhcetta's elsewhere and loved them. We went in to the Broadbeach one a few weeks ago and they were running a 'lunch special'. I ordered the veal schnitzel and my husband got the chicken parmigiana and I we were both really disappointed. The veal was really musty and the chips were cold. The waiter was really unattentive too. Maybe they'd be better for dinner, I know some restaurants do drop their standards for 'lunch specials' but it really is a shame because it deters me from returning. I'd still eat at La Porchetta elsewhere though.

I love dining at this restaurant. I know it's nothing amazingly flashy, but we've been eating here for years, and I love so many things about it.

The ambience and atmosphere. I love eating in Broadbeach in general, and it's just so relaxing but also uplifting to sit (outside especially) amongst the palm trees, other diners, and gaze at the lights of the high rises around you, the lights twinkling in the trees, and the many other cafes and restaurants all around.

The food here is really of a high quality I think, and especially for the price. My partner and I sometimes share a large pizza and it only costs us around $8 each!

The waiters are really good, very friendly and accommodating, and at this particular restaurant we always get treated very well by one of the senior guys. I'm not sure if he's the owner or manager, but he is lovely to us. He knows what we order now, we're very predictable!

I highly recommend this restaurant for a nice, relaxing and excellent value meal.
