Loved having lots of vegan options. My non adventurous omnivore friend found an option he enjoyed and he loved the coffee. I loved the apple pie latte and the vegan hollandaise sauce! Amazing how popular this tucked away place is on a weekday!
Awesome Food & Service. Very good presentation as you can see in the photos & Video. You won’t be disappointed with taste and quantity. Keep up the consistency.
We came to Cardamom Pod for Mother’s Day and we’re so glad we booked ahead—this place was absolutely packed, and for good reason! We've been traveling down from Brisbane for years just to eat here, and it never disappoints. There’s truly no other resturant like it. Even though neither my husband nor I are vegetarian, we absolutely love the food—and so does our 1-year-old! The flavours, presentation, and creativity are always spot on. Every dish is a 10/10. The staff are friendly, attentive, and really pulled it off today despite the big crowds. Cardamom Pod continues to be one of our all-time favourite spots. You simply can’t find food or an experience like this anywhere else. Keep up the amazing work!
Cardamom Pod is one of my absolute FAVES and a MUST-VISIT! The food is not only delicious but also visually stunning, with each plate resembling a work of art. The staff are attentive, helpful, and cater to all your needs. 5/5 stars for food, service, and atmosphere. Highly recommend!
As someone who usually leans toward non-vegetarian meals, I wasn’t sure what to expect from a fully plant-based menu – but The Cardamom Pod exceeded EVERY expectation. ? From the first bite, it was clear that this place isn’t just for vegetarians and vegans – it’s for anyone who loves good food. Every dish was bursting with flavor, beautifully balanced, and presented like a work of art. The plating was honestly stunning – Instagram-worthy without feeling over-the-top. It was literally EDIBLE ART!? The staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they do. You could tell there was genuine care behind everything – from the service to the ingredients. ???? Best of all? The prices were surprisingly reasonable given the quality, creativity, and portion sizes. ?? If you’re in Gold Coast and even remotely curious about plant-based food ?, do yourself a favor and try The Cardamom Pod. It completely changed my perspective – and I’m already planning my next visit. ? 10/10 – Highly recommend, especially if you’re trying vegan food for the first time!
