Rating
Great food, service and price. We visit regularly and have never been disappointed. Service is always attentive but not OTT. Food is excellent, the choice of courses might be limited but all options suit our taste. Will be back very soon.
Great place to dine. Friendly service and great food. Prices have increased slightly but it is still cheap compared to other eateries in Noosa. We will return!
Service and food are amazing, we love it there. Five star food and service every time with such creative and delicious menus.
