About Rumi - Persian Restaurant & Bar Broadbeach

Rumi delivers generous platters of authentic Halal Persian cuisine right in the lively heart of Broadbeach. The dining room buzzes with old-school tracks and easygoing energy, drawing in big family tables alongside spontaneous walk-ins off Surf Parade. Charcoal smoke anchors the kitchen—skewering juicy koobideh, tender marinated chicken, and crusty lamb chops served alongside mounds of fluffy saffron rice and crisp golden tahdig. Table spreads stretch wide with warm bread, smoky kashke bademjan, and slow-braised lamb shanks, leaving little room for anything but another shared plate.

  • Generous Persian Grills: Bountiful share platters come piled with flame-grilled koobideh, chicken skewers, and chops over fluffy rice with crispy tahdig.
  • Group Dining & Feasts: The welcoming dining room easily accommodates large family gatherings and lively celebrations with sharing banquets.
  • Relaxed Broadbeach Walk-Ins: Spontaneous outdoor and indoor tables welcome walk-ins off Surf Parade, complete with heated dog-friendly patio seating.

  • Vibrant Setting for Group Celebrations

    Lively energy, classic music, and buzzing dining spaces make the restaurant a go-to Gold Coast spot for work groups and family milestones.

    The atmosphere was amazing for socialising with a group although it does get quite loud, but that actually added to the fun vibe.

    I ordered the King Plate, which came with lamb chops, minced kebab, rice, and salad, everything was absolutely delicious.

  • Saffron chicken

    We all thought the saffron chicken was the best, it was grilled perfectly, has a good char on the outside but still succulent inside.
