Quick bite, handy to Burleigh

Ducked in for a creamy beef pie and a vanilla biscuit. Very handy to my beloved Burleigh. Pie was delicious.

If I lived nearby, I would go again!

I had a Mushroom Burger and Sticky Date Pudding and they were both delicious! With lots of variety on the menu, I'm sure that you could go many times and enjoy a great selection of dishes.
The blueberry Danishes taste great too!

A new favourite restaurant on the Gold Coast for me!

My partner and I loved everything we ordered here, we even came back for some take away on our way to the airport at the end of our trip. The decor and vibe of the place is also really nice and the staff are lovely.

Delicious food and great atmosphere

We loved visiting Doko Demo V and sampling from their massive menu. The Sizzling Mongolian Beef was a huge hit and we also loved the pizza. Would definitely go again!

Beautiful food

Just popped in for take-away but will be back. The food was freshly cooked and flavourful. And they had a big range of vegan deserts that weren’t all raw. Danish’s, brownies, sticky date pudding, muffins and more.

Pros: Huge 100% vegan menu, Friendly staff , Peaceful atmosphere

6 Stars!!!

After visiting Doko Demo V for the first time today, I almost want to lower my star rating to everywhere else I have eaten haha. The serving sizes were so generous, it was such good value for money, we took so many leftovers home for dinner. The taste was amazing. Owners/staff were really friendly. Atmosphere is very relaxed. We had caramel milkshakes, hawaiian pizza, wedges, "fish" & chips and then choc brownie & sticky date pudding (both with icecream) for dessert. 100% vegan restaurant with such an extensive menu (Burgers, pizzas, asian food, pies, lasagne/pasta, desserts etc). 6 out of 5 and cannot wait to return. Only negative is that we live in Brisbane and Doko Domo V is on the Gold Coast (sad face).

Pros: Delicious food, Incredible size and value for money, Friendly staff

Best on the GC 💚

Have been a loyal supporter of Doko-Demo since the Miami days. The food is always amazing (🙏🏽 Jared), and the team is fabulous 💚 Can’t wait to see what the new owners add to this already incredible vegan restaurant.

Huge variety of delicious food

Have eaten here a few times and loved everything we've tried. There is a massive menu which covers a variety of cuisines that are all done well. The staff are lovely and very accommodating. Even though it's in an industrial area, they've made it a beautiful little escape. Love that it's pet friendly too, and most importantly, 100% vegan. Wish we lived closer to come more often and make our way through the huge menu - choosing is hard!

Pros: Good sized portions for a reasonable price, Beautiful food, great service, Lovely coffee

Amazing!

Absolutely delicious food and lovely friendly staff. We tried 2 small plates, 2 mains and the pot plant ice cream and shared it all like our own mini degustation; everything was superb!

Delicious food with so many options

I was blown away by how many options (all vegan) there were at Doko Demo V. I had the Works Burger (the fried “egg” was delicious!) and a Cheeky Monkey milkshake which was sooo nice, and a warmed up blueberry muffin. The place is so cute, the food was well presented, and the staff were lovely, with the food at a good price for the portion sizes. This place is right on my way to university so I will definitely be coming more often to try as many things as possible!

Pros: So mang options, Lovely atmosphere , Yummy food

Delicious vegan food with modern Australian Asian fusion.

Love eating here; food always attractively presented; generous servings; breakfasts and salads second to none. Wide variety of lunch and evening dishes to choose from. Prompt service; relaxing ambience. Owner chef to be congratulated.

Favourite on the GC

Edit: Have been here a handful of times now and the food is always amazing! The menu has such a huge variety of cuisines, but they somehow manage to nail it all?

This is in my partner and I’s top 3 “must do” restaurants whenever we holiday on the Gold Coast. Really friendly staff, nice atmosphere, super easy parking, and food is consistently on point 🙌🏼

Lovely vegan find

Travelling to visit family on Gold Coast.
Came for breakfast with my two young kids. And we just love the freedom of a 100%vegan restaurant. Big breakfast was great! Milkshakes, good coffee! It was a win all round.

Pros: Big breakfast complete with hasbrowns!, Coffee , 100% vegan

Colourful and Flavourful Meals

We had a simple dinner here. The service was faultless. The flavours are put together nicely, the colours are great, and the food is filling without being heavy. I would have preferred a little more protein in each of the two meals we sampled, but the portion sizes are generous.
The location of this wonderful little restaurant, however, is not very pleasant. It's on a corner of a retail complex, on a main road (without even any foot traffic), and its great internal ambience seems really out of place somehow.
I hope that this location is just a temporary home for this great vegan business, and that in due course we will find it somewhere more aligned with its character.

Pros: Clean-tasting food, Generous portions, Lovely ambience (inside)

Cons: Location

Home-style meals

The location is a bit out of the way (next to a furniture store), but they have a spacious and airy dining area.

I ordered the Thai Tofu Scamble GF and a chai tea.

The service was friendly and welcoming, and the food was filling.

The food was hearty home-style cooking with generous portions.

Pros: All veg*n menu!, Hearty meals, Spacious dining area

Make tracks to this place, it’s worth it!

We have been trying to have a meal here for the last 3 years - since moving to Brisbane. We finally got here and are so glad we did!
Generous sized servings, friendly staff and well priced.
We had the wedges (perfectly herbed), the Lamb Souvlaki and Butter Chicken. The food was delicious and there were no leftovers despite the generous servings.
The new venue is bright and airy, a nice refuge on a hot summer day.
Well worth the trip.

Soooo good!

I didn't know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised! There was nothing I didn't like about the place, food is amazing, good portions sizes, service is outstanding and lovely, good coffee e nice ambiance ☺️
Between my partner and myself we had their Thai scrambled tofu, bacon Benny, long blacks, matcha latte and a brownie and everything was amazing! Food came fast and the bill was about 60 dollars or so...
Would highly recommend and definitely come back

Pros: Service , Bacon benny, Coffee

5 stars for the Baos

The charcoal baos were delicious which gives this a 5 star review. We also had the teriyaki tofu (needed a bit of seasoning) and no meat lasagne which were good.
Large portions, we couldn’t eat it all. The menu is huge with 2 types of lasagne, 3 types of spaghetti, lots of pizzas, Lots of burgers, a mish mash of everything. Lots of faux meat on the menu so if you’re a fan of that then you’ll love it. My only suggestion would be to reduce the menu size and focus on less dishes at the next level.
Has a bar so a wine with dinner was nice.
