The kingfish ceviche and tuna tartare alone justify the booking, and you will need a booking. Light Years brings a pan-Asian shared plates menu to Sunshine Beach Road that punches well above its price point. The chef selection banquet at $69 per head is the move for groups, working through honey ribs, firecracker chicken, and miso corn in an order that actually makes sense. The outdoor seating with heaters runs year-round, the beer is cold, and the staff have a reputation for remembering faces across multiple visits. Dogs are welcome. Service is quick without feeling rushed. For the price, it's hard to find fault. Go hungry, order the waiter's choice, and let them fill the table.
Why We Keep Coming Back! Consistently Outstanding, Every Visit: We’re regulars at Light Years Burleigh, so when we were on the Sunshine Coast and catching up with friends, it was an easy choice to visit the local Light Years there. From the moment we arrived, the staff remembered us from Burleigh, which honestly made our day and says so much about the culture and care across the venues. We had our furbaby with us and he was made to feel so welcome, which we absolutely loved. The experience was so good that we ended up going back the very next day for lunch with my family. As always, the food was sensational, the beer was cold, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and on to it. Consistently great hospitality every time. What more could you ask for? Highly recommend. 🌟
This restaurant features a pan Asian menu that is fresh and nuanced in flavours. We dined as a large group and tried the Primo Selection banquet. The salmon sashimi was incredible. Special mention also for the honey ribs and firecracker chicken.

Easy to write off as a tourist stop on Hastings Street, harder to argue with once the seafood spaghetti arrives. The beach-facing verandah over Laguna Bay is the draw, but the Caesar salad with prawns and the notably good fish and chips are reasons to return.

Sunshine Beach
On-site roasted coffee, a tiered outdoor deck, and a carrot cake that stops people in their tracks. A short walk from Sunshine Beach, with dogs welcome on the lower level and enough shaded seating to justify a second flat white.

Do yourself a favor and go to light years. Not only the ambience is great (we were sitting outside with the heaters on), but the staff is lovely and the food is perfect. We got the chef selection menu ($69 pp) and we were not disappointed. Every single bite we had was amazing! Great job to the chef, absolutely nailed it.
Book ahead because this place is busy! Shared plates. Deliciousness. Highly recommend Kingfish ceviche, Tuna tartare, Fire Cracker Chicken and the waiters choice - Miso corn. Great service. Quick meals. Second time dining in and it won’t be our last.
We had an amazing experience at this restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious, very well prepared, and made with high quality ingredients. Everything we ordered exceeded our expectations. The service truly made the difference. We felt very welcomed and well taken care of, especially by Marina and Coco, who were incredibly kind, attentive, and made our experience even more special. We would definitely come back and highly recommend it.

Twenty years of crepe-making and a dinner menu that pulls in duck confit and moules frites alongside the Lemon Bliss, lemon curd, blueberries, crumble, vanilla ice cream. Open all day, generous portions, genuine French hospitality. Book ahead.
