Incredible food, friendly staff, great cocktails and superb wine recommendation. Great price point for fine dining on Hastings St. Second time coming here whilst in Noosa and would most definitely come back and recommend to a friend.

Amazing food, staff and setting. The manager noticed my partner and brother run across the road to get some ice cream in a takeaway tub from the gelateria as it closed during our dinner, and offered to kindly put it in the freezer for us. All other staff were equally charming. Not to mention terrific food.

We went on Monday a public holiday and were aware of the 17% surcharge. Our bill was $600 and for this price the service that was provided to us was disgraceful. This is the second time I have visited Locale, and the way we were treated by the staff, that we were not good enough to be there. The waiter was extremely rude to us, could not even ask us how the meal was or if there was anything else we would like. As we were leaving to pay with the eftpos machine in hand he commented have you even paid.The food was average for the price and we will not be returning there are many other restaurants

The chef made a customised and personalised degustation for us. It was exquisite. The staff were exceptional. Its definitely worth a booking if you're in Noosa.

Good vibes. Friendly attentive staff. Good selection of wines. Food didn't hit the spot. Perhaps would need to give another go on next visit up to Noosa

Amazing! We loved every single dish that came out! Our waiter, Nick, was incredibly attentive and suggested dishes to us. All of them were great and we really enjoyed it. The scallops were soo good, we got them again after the mains. Also their cocktails!! Absolutely great! My friend got another drink suited to his taste by the bartender and we really liked how they were so accommodating. When I go back to Noosa, Ill definitely come by again. Thanks for the amazing experience! :)
