Along Noosa’s famed Hastings St, the modern Australian eatery boasts prime beachfront access and the views to match. Its tourism location demands an approachable, people-pleasing menu and that’s exactly what’s delivered.

Take entrees like salmon cakes, their centre moist, exterior crisp and flavour boosted from a swipe through accompanying saffron aioli; or maybe mains such as eye fillet, chargrilled to develop a beefy crust, served with a textbook creamy potato mash.

Desserts also adhere to the egalitarian approach, though with a slight contemporary twist, such as a classic lemon tart deconstructed with crescents of shortbread-like sable, dollops of lemon curd, yuzu gel and a smattering of fresh fruit pieces.

Service is evenly pitched, with staff highly knowledgeable and proficient, yet relaxed and engaging in keeping with the beach vibe. Let them help with cocktail selection from the signature shake-ups designed to put guests in the holiday spirit, or a wine from the keenly priced collection of popular and more obscure drops out of Australia, New Zealand and Europe. Season is the fail-safe restaurant visitors, tourists and locals can rely on.
