About

About Gemelli Italian

Gemelli Italian was founded by brothers Alec and James — the word gemelli simply means "twins" in Italian, and that identity is woven through every aspect of the business. Growing up in a family that made sauce and salami with their grandfather, the pair built their restaurants around the traditions they inherited: slow cooking, handmade pasta, and the belief that good Italian food begins with great ingredients.

The group now operates multiple venues across Queensland, including the flagship in Broadbeach on the Gold Coast and a location in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, along with sister concepts Gemellini, Roy's by Gemelli, and Papa Rolly's. Across all sites, pasta is rolled and cut fresh daily in-house, pizzas are fired in a traditional wood-burning oven, and the kitchen prioritises imported Italian staples — San Marzano tomatoes, 24-month Prosciutto di Parma, buffalo mozzarella from Campania — alongside Queensland's own exceptional seafood including local king prawns and spanner crab.

The Broadbeach venue has become a Gold Coast institution, drawing diners who want the comfort of a neighbourhood Italian trattoria with the quality of a fine-casual kitchen. Reservations are recommended, particularly on weekends when surcharges apply.
