Named after The Wind which blew us from the shores of Italia into the heart of the Sunshine Coast, Il Vento brings to Mooloolaba traditional Italian cuisine to be enjoyed in a modern seaside setting. 

The only restaurant in Mooloolaba equipped with a wood-fired oven, Il Vento promises to bring the people of Mooloolaba perfect wood-fired pizzas and fresh handmade pasta. Think authentic ingredients imported straight from the regions of Parma and Napoli, homemade pastas passed down from Nonna to son, and the use of local produce that all Australians know and love.  

At Il Vento, we welcome every and all passers-by to sneak a peek inside. Thanks to our location on The Wharf with sweeping views of the Mooloolaba Marina, we can provide whatever our diners seek, whether that be a large family-style banquet or a quiet dinner for two. 

With over fifteen years’ experience, executive chef Ibrahim Haddad is no stranger to wholesome Italian cooking and dining. Impressive pasta-making skills aside, Ibrahim also brings with him traditional cooking techniques first honed at Il Verde, Il Vento successful sister restaurant in Brisbane’s Bowen Hills. 

With an extensive menu and plenty of gusto to share, it’s time to throw caution to the wind and indulge in Il Vento today.

Welcome to Italian dining created with produce from some of Italia’s best. 

Bringing together cheese from Emilio Romano, ham sourced from Parma, and flour from Napoli with fresh local produce, Il Vento fully embodies the concept of combining traditional technique and touches with a blend of Italian and Australian fare. 

From authentic risottos made with West Australian scampi and prawns to fresh homemade pastas with creamy truffle sauce, Il Vento’s menu is the perfect balance of all influences.
