Exclusive access to the Gold Coast’s hottest venues, events and experiences.
It’s all about who you know. And darling, you’ve come to the right place!
A slick, brand-new venue is set to open on the Gold Coast in a matter of weeks at Oracle Boulevard, right in the heart of Broadbeach.
A place where sensory meets the sea. Rustic meets refined. A contemporary bar and grill concept, boasting one of the city’s only charcoal wood-fire grills.
Kōst has been meticulously designed to provided top-notch dining and beverage experiences in a relaxed coastal environment.
Hospitality honcho, Dave Galvin, and his team have spent over three years planning this unique dining concept.
“We have created a coastally inspired concept to deliver a sensory immersion through food, wine, cocktails and live fuel cooking methods. A design-led venue which connects guests to four key coastal elements. Air, Water, Fire, Earth. A place where bar meets grill.” said Dave Galvin, owner of Kōst
“I have always been a huge fan of charcoal and live fuel cooking and dining in a beautifully designed venue. These are just two of my passions which were part of the inspiration for creating Kōst. After an extensive search, we finally managed to find the perfect location that we could bring this concept to life.”
Kōst has taken over three previous tenancies on Oracle Boulevard and amalgamated the space to create one venue. The exquisite venue will offer a 130-seat restaurant, with an additional 50 seats for cocktail drinking and bar dining in the restaurant or outside on the brand-new impressive outdoor pavilion. Pull up a bar stool and watch the world go by, right in the heart of the busy Broadbeach precinct.
Kōst also features a spectacularly designed, fully enclosed, private dining room for 12 guests, plush booths and multiple options for groups and events.
Heading up the kitchen at Kōst, is Executive Chef, Sebbie Keynon. Hailing from the east coast of Australia he has had a very impressive international career as a renowned and respected chef. Sebbie cut his culinary teeth in hatted restaurants in Sydney and Melbourne and honed his skills in Paris for Greg Marchand at Frenchie and then moved onto the infamous Beast and Burger & Lobster group. (London, New York)
In Moscow, he worked for renowned restaurant and Alexander Rappopor and opened his own venues including Sebbie Kitchen and Bar in Kazan, Steak it Easy, Mates and Gimpel. Most recently he has joined Meatsmith part of Burnt Ends Group in Jakarta, leading the teams for new ventures as Culinary Director South Asia.
“Our menu is already looking spectacular, and the cuisine will feature a wide array of options including live and raw dishes, whole market fish, seafood towers, champagne and caviar trolleys, top-notch dry aged steaks and whole lobsters. Think classic bar and grill, blended with more contemporary cooking methods on the first two-metre Mibrasa charcoal grill and oven in Australia.” said Dave Galvin, owner of Kōst.
Kōst also features a purpose-built dry age cool room that can be seen from Oracle Boulevard, an experiential cocktail programme, and a magnificent 130+ bottle, coastally inspired wine list and an extensive Champagne range by the flute, curated by a Master Sommelier.
Rounding out the executive team is seasoned hospitality professional Brendan Elcham, who hails from a renowned Sydney hospitality family with a legacy of iconic venues, including Jimmy Liks at Pott’s Point, The Embassy in Double Bay, and The Cave at Star City Casino. With a wealth of experience in the hospitality field and an unwavering commitment to delivering outstanding service, Brendan is part of the A-team at Kōst.
“Think fire-kissed food, immersive drinks, killer cocktails, impressive wine list and impeccable service in a space we have created, led by the best in architectural design. This is 25-years of my hospitality experience all poured into one shiny, sleek and sexy venue. We cannot wait to welcome you all to Kōst next month!” said Dave Galvin, owner of Kōst.
