On a Tuesday night in low season, this place is packed. That tells you everything. Sitting on the Noosa River at Gympie Terrace, Gusto has been a Noosaville institution for over two decades, and the current owners Tim and Chloe have spent five years making something already good into something genuinely hard to fault. The menu runs modern Australian with a French lean, built around seasonal local produce. Order the eye fillet if it's on, and do not skip the apple tart with brown sugar ice cream. The wine list is considered without being showy, and the pricing stays honest for the quality. Service is warm and present without hovering. Book ahead, especially for weekends and special occasions. Walk-ins happen, but you're better off not risking it.

We dined at Gusto Noosa last night for Valentine’s Day, and I now completely understand why they hold such incredible ratings. From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless. The venue itself is stunning right on the Noosa River, relaxed yet refined, with such a beautiful atmosphere. The food, however, was the true standout. We enjoyed a three-course meal with drinks, and every single dish was exceptional. So much flavour, so beautifully balanced, truly one of the best meals I have ever had and one I’ll remember for a long time. The service was equally impressive. Warm, attentive, and genuine without ever feeling overbearing. As small business owners ourselves who pour our hearts into what we do, it was especially meaningful to see the owner so present and involved on the floor, personally engaging with and serving guests. That level of care and leadership shows in every detail. I grew up in Noosa and honestly wish I had dined here years ago. We’re in Noosa for another five days and will absolutely be booking both another dinner and a lunch before we leave. Thank you for such a memorable evening, we’ll be back 🤍

Where to even begin! Gusto’s was so fantastic! My partner and I walked past this restaurant and impulsively decided to book for dinner because it looked so beautiful! And it did not disappoint. Gusto’s atmosphere is so stunning, fine elegant dining right along the beach side for a gorgeous view whether you’re dining for lunch or dinner. I do not say this lightly, but this was the best steak (eye fillet) my partner and I have ever had. Everything was cooked to perfection, the flavours and balance were perfect. The potatoes were delicious, as well as the green beans and jus. Our server, Christian, was very kind and made the experience more special! He was very welcoming and we enjoyed chatting with him. He recommended the apple tart for dessert and my gosh it was exquisite! I can still taste the brown sugar ice cream that went with it We will certainly be back soon! Highly recommend!

I had my 50th Birthday luncheon at Gusto, and opted for a three course menu with my own selection of food and wines. It was absolute perfection! The chefs, service, and team did the most wonderful job. Every detail was executed perfectly and kindly. My guests commented that the day was magical and delicious! I could not have been happier with the attention to detail, the food and wine were superb, and I was so glad I picked this venue as everything came out when it should. A big thank you to Ben & Simone for their excellent service and preparation with the kitchen to ensure it ran so smoothly, and to the chefs for their delicious options that were executed so beautifully. I loved my celebration. Thank you so much team. See you again soon! XO

A night of light, textured flavours that worked so well together. Every mouthful was delicious. The armomas touched our taste buds before sampling. Every aspect of the restaurant works well. A busy and obviously very successful restaurant. Thank you.

We live here and this is a favourite for us and many locals for sure. Gusto has been around for 20 years or more. Tim and his wife Chloe, the current owners, took it over some five years ago, and they've taken great to outstanding! Truly passionate restaurateurs that loves what they do. On a recent Tuesday night in low season the place was packed for dinner. Last Sunday for lunch it was absolutely pumping, and I think that says it all. Amazing atmosphere, sensational service and beautiful food. A shout out to all his staff and the kitchen team....amazing! They make it seem effortless. It's consistently good and without crazy prices. A true gem that shouldn't be missed if visiting Noosa.
