The decor is like a restaurant in NY, Melbourne or Europe and they have added detail with sophistication yet it appears simple and sleek lines with subtle lighting that gives a great atmosphere. There are different areas to sit from the bar to lounge, table seating or a small outdoor area.

Drawing heavily on Italian tradition, Locale Noosa offers a seasonally changing menu using the best in local produce and premium imported ingredients. Surrounded by lush gardens, Locale Noosa sits in a protected corner of Hastings Street just a few steps from the golden sands of Noosa Main Beach. Our seasonal menu features handmade pasta, traditional italian antipasti and desserts alongside an impressive selection of wines, beers and cocktails.

    Everything was delicious. I would definitely recommend the Tagliatelle, and the mushrooms. Probably the best in our table. The wine list is really rich so you’ll definitely find what you like.

    Service super slow, ordered a cocktail and was just super sour and mainly ice, food was ok, just super disappointed that we had to wait for so long in between dishes. Tables around us were getting food and being service quicker than us, I’ve been there before and had a great experience but this time honestly was very poor.

    The service was excellent!! Out waiter was attentive, helpful and friendly. The food was lovely however one of our mains was oversalted. When we mentioned it to our waiter he apologised and said he would mention it to the head chef. When we went to pay the bill they said they were not going to charge for the oversalted meal which we found incredibly generous!! It was also my partners birthday so our waiter bought out a beautiful little piece of chocolate cake and fruit topped with a sparkler which was very kind. Overall a great experience and would recommend!!
