    One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. As an American living in Australia finding authentic Mexican is near impossible. This experience was delicious. Highly recommend. Must recommend actually!

    If you’re after an upmarket dining experience without the pretentious feel then Bandita is for you. Delicious modern mexican inspired food terrific for sharing or keeping all to yourself. Service was great. Staff very friendly but not annoying. We dined here twice while visiting the Sunshine Coast , once with our daughter who has Coeliac disease and a young baby and we had a very safe gluten free meal with her family and then bought my sister and her husband back two weeks later because we loved it so much. Thoroughly recommend Bandita. Thanks

    Easily the best restaurant in Gympie Terrace. Elevated street food and admirable cocktails in a uber cool interior. Everything was perfect - the food, the service and the views of Noosa River and so it should be - these guys had Mamasita in Melbourne. Will be back - 5 stars.
