Great food and service. The tapas were especially delicious and came in generous-sized servings. We were up from Sydney visiting a friend who has retired to Tweed Heads. Our friend said he will definitely be back.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — If you think you know Latin‑inspired cuisine, get ready for Big Papi’s Cocina to flip that idea on its head and season it to perfection! From the moment you slip inside this Gold Coast gem, you’re wrapped in a warm glow of terracotta tiles, low‑lit pendants, and the irresistible sizzle wafting off the grill. The ambience hits that sweet spot between fiesta‑lively and date‑night intimate; you can just as easily toast a birthday with margaritas as whisper sweet nothings over slow‑cooked pork. But let’s talk food. Every plate feels like a love letter to Hispanic flavors—reimagined, remixed, and delivered with swagger. Even the humble plantain is elevated to art: twice‑fried, dusted with sea salt, and served with a silky queso dip that should be illegal. Portions are generous, presentation is Insta‑ready, and the flavor combinations are fearless without straying into gimmick territory. Chef “Big Papi” himself is half culinary mastermind, half silver‑screen heart‑throb—gliding from table to table with a grin that says, “Yes, that secret mole recipe really did take 48 hours.” Meanwhile, our server chatted with us like an old friend, sprinkling local slang and cheeky one‑liners while keeping drinks topped and plates paced like clockwork. It’s the kind of service that makes you linger for dessert (do NOT skip the choco-torta). In short, Big Papi’s Cocina isn’t just another restaurant—it’s a sensory celebration. Come hungry, come curious, and prepare to leave planning your next visit before you’ve paid the bill. ¡Buen provecho!

Unfortunately, we were quite disappointed with our experience. While the location and ambience were really nice and inviting, the food let us down. It arrived barely warm and was very average in terms of taste and quality. We had higher expectations and hoped for a better dining experience. Hopefully, this can be improved in the future.

If you're looking for a restaurant that truly delivers on every front, this place is an absolute gem! From the moment I stepped through the door, I was blown away by the welcoming atmosphere and impeccable setup. The ambiance was simply perfect, with just the right amount of lighting, decor, and music that set the mood for a relaxed yet elevated dining experience. Now, let's talk about the food—phenomenal doesn’t even begin to cover it. Every dish was a masterpiece, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. You can tell that they use only the freshest ingredients, and the chef’s creativity really shines through in every bite. It’s the kind of food that makes you want to savour every bite and wish you could have more. The service was top-notch. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we felt taken care of without being intrusive. They really made the entire experience feel personal, and that level of care made all the difference. The location was just as impressive, adding to the overall experience with its charm and convenience. Whether you’re there for a casual meal or celebrating something special, this place is perfect for any occasion. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough! Every detail was considered, and it shows. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favour and visit—you won’t regret it!!

This was our first visit to Big Papi's Cocina, but we are definitely keen to go back many times. The attentive and highly informative service by our friendly waiter, Jokin, got everything off on the right footing, and then the superb quality of the food made for a very pleasant dining experience. We could not speak more highly of this restaurant.
