noosa boathouse

we came for a three course dinner as part of the noosa food and wine festival and it was outstanding! after reading the reviews we were a bit hesitant, however it was faultless! having the head chef of the boathouse and another head chef from port douglas establish a menu and cook it for you was a fantastic experience. all the food was delicious and fresh, and the wine pairing was perfect. couldn't fault the service either, with every waiter/ess going above and beyond and providing excellent service. we had such a lovely night, and based off our meals we would definitely return to try the normal menu.

delicious food, great view. relaxing and definitely worth a visit. we had the oysters kilpatrick and calamari for entree and the fish with yellow curry sauce and vegetables.

great views and good service. had the lunch special and it was very good value. just $28 for two courses of your choice & a glass of wine! bookings recommended if you want a table on the water.

service was friendly and the risotto was nice, fish cakes and tiramisu were ok. in a bigger market this place would be getting less 5 stars. still worth a visit if you're in noosa though.

i sat in the corner on my own i had to get up to order both my drinks and food staff only came to my table to take the empty plate away. meanwhile a full restaurant of tables were being served.

friendly staff, very helpful. bar tender was fantastic with mixing the cocktails. food on point. steak as cooked medium rare and served with potatoe salad. the brownie was nothing to write home about, the salted caramel ice cream made it delicious. view was amazing.

the boathouse is a floating venue with a casual restaurant, function centre and sunset bar at the top. the bar is a great place for light snacks and elegant cocktails while you watch the sun set over the water.

we went to the water level restaurant for their 4 course feasting menu for friday lunch. we made a booking but there were plenty of tables for walk ins.

each course consisted on two different dishes shared between us and there was a good variety of ingredients including scallops, kingfish, wagyu beef and a dessert platter to finish.

the service was friendly although little slow in following up when our drinks were empty.

the food was fresh and tasty and you can't beat that view! we also thought the menu was good value for $59pp and you definitely won't leave hungry

service was very good. all the staff i interacted with were friendly. very nice views of the river. i enjoyed my meal. the chickpeas were cooked with a nice flavour and the fish wasn’t over cooked either.

went to the boathouse for dinner on new years eve with the family and it was that good that went back again a couple of days later and got the sirloin steak! hands down one of the best dishes i’ve had, steak cooked to perfection and the potatoes had the best flavours! @nom nom nom

hands down the best restaurant in noosa! we dined here twice, once on new years and then again. the food was so fresh and delicious, the location is beautiful, management were fantastic with my sisters allergies and the staff were so lovely. we visit noosa at least once a year and this is our new fave! some of the best dishes were- the steak, seafood platter, fish in yellow curry and the pavlova. will be back again this week to get some take away fish n chips.

had coffee and a muffin at the little boat coffee place
mmmm very good!
stands out from al the other coffee shops on the river
definitely worth a trip
friendly staff and amazing surrounds
perfect

dined here on thursday evening. selected the seafood platter. out came a three tiered platter that was excellent! all very tasty and plenty on the plated. the prawns were both natural as well as fried in a delicious coating. service was great as so was the setting on the noosa river.

food is excellent, view of river fantastic and service very good. highly recommend the gnocchi and the beer battered fish, lightest crunchier batter with fish that just falls apart. wonderful.

we were a group of hospitality workers who came here for a nice dinner on a night out. we regretted it immensely.
firstly, we made three orders of fish and chips and as stated on the menu chose our fish from the "daily fish" board. however, when we received the bill it was obvious the waitress did not take the order correctly and we instead were given "fish of the day with chips" which in fact is $8 more expensive. additionally, our friend also ordered calamari ($29) as a main meal and only received 5 pieces (approx).

when explaining the issue to our waitress, she became defensive of her mistake and placed all of the blame on us. she then told her manager, and returned to our table stating the mistake had been "amended". we assumed this meant the prices of our meals had been changed to what we ordered - $29 vs. $37.

however, whilst we were paying we found that we had been over charged. upon inspection, we found that the manager had only "amended" one of the meals to the original price, leaving us to pay full price for the two remaining meals that were incorrectly served to us.

overall, it was a terrible experience. we are a young group (19yrs and 20yrs old) but it still wasn't fair to treat us the way they did and put all the blame on us. any other restaurant would have apologised and rectified all the mistakes.
our food was overpriced for the portion and poor quality that we received. if i could rate less than one star i would.

mmm, nice views. food was ok but not outstanding.
honestly, the taste doesn't match its' price. it will be a pleasant place to have some beer other than meal.
