Asian street food (Roti, Korean Chicken, Pad Thai etc) given a chef’s touch and served in a very stylish interior (exterior?). The Kingfish sashimi was my go to, but I got tempted by the softshell crab sliders last time - YUM.

Gem ? Definitely - fresh as it can get rolls and bowls. Won't be in any guide books but might become your fave sushi.

Opened March 2023 after a multi million dollar refurb. A mix of The Farm at Byron Bay and The Grounds in Sydney. Geared for outdoor dining the pizzas are among the best in the area and the other food looked pretty good as well. Big grass area for kids to play and they are looking at putting in some petting animals.

Brand new venture by Peter Kuruvita who used to run the Beach House in Hastings Street. Tucked away near Noosa Springs Golf Course the blurb says it "is a hub of food and beverage offerings with Sunshine Coast produce and the local community at its heart. ALBA combines a cafe, providore, pizzeria, and relaxed all-day bar that evolves into a stylish restaurant and cocktail bar at night. The venue also hosts ALBA Chef’s Kitchen, a creative space for cooking classes, private chef’s tables, and kitchen studio".
