The decor is like a restaurant in NY, Melbourne or Europe and they have added detail with sophistication yet it appears simple and sleek lines with subtle lighting that gives a great atmosphere. There are different areas to sit from the bar to lounge, table seating or a small outdoor area.

    Our group of 8 enjoyed an early Christmas lunch and it was perfect. Great service, fabulous food, excellent location. We live in Noosaville so jumped on the ferry for the ride to town. Perfect day.

    Superb! The service was impeccable. Our wait staff were attentive, but not intrusive. Their knowledge and recommendations were spot on. The food was sensational. Every dish was magnificent. The ambiance was cozy, intimate and welcoming. We loved that Locale is tucked away at the French Quarter end of Hastings Street. A classy, unpretentious gem.

    We were staying on Hastings Street and this restaurant came highly recommended by a chef friend of ours. No water views but the ambience was great and the staff were on the ball and friendly. Food was fantastic and service was very quick. The cost was a little on the pricey end but worth it for the taste and presentation. Would highly recommend it to people who enjoy a good quality, tasty meal.

    Once again, a wonderful dinner at Locale. Our 2nd night for this year's Noosa holiday. Food was great, we had shared plates to start with, which I would recommend so you enjoy several dishes, followed by lovely mains. Also, to mention, great little meal options for young one. The service was also wonderful, very attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. We will return again next year!!

    Second time I have been here because first time was great. I won’t be back for a while unless I hear of others with a better experience. Just not great food. It was ok. The pasta was barely warm , my dining companion says hers was cold. We did let the staff know but they didn’t say anything. Not great experience. The people next to us also complained about their food too.

I’d booked for my husband and I to enjoy a special evening and it was just that. The attention to detail amazing , out of this world cocktails and a menu to go back for again and again . Thank you Locale

    Had high expectations and was a little disappointed. Spoilt by a neighbouring table of 4 loud middle aged drunk guys who had no respect for anyone else in the restaurant. We were there for our 30 Wedding anniversary from Adelaide, not particularly romantic at all, but that can happen anywhere. Nice setting, food was ok a bit bland and wine by the glass very expensive . Wouldn’t return in a hurry.
