About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
  • Charming
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.

    Michael & his team looked after us wonderfully, making our wedding anniversary & birthday celebration one to remember. Everything was spot on - food, cocktails, wine & service were all outstanding. Little touches made us feel super special

    Always a great experience. Loved our waitress. Educated the kids on no Parmesan with seafood, with a smile and “you’re killing my grandmother”.
