It's a bit removed from the beach, but I've generally felt the premium Noosa Heads stretch to be unimpressive and not worth the money, so I come here to Noosa Junction for food. Happily in this case, as the spinach dal I ordered was delicious and well rounded in flavor. I usually don't order that dish as I'm worried about the spinach overwhelming the spices, but that didn't happen in this case. It also came with an orange garnish, an unusual choice. Why orange for your spicy spinach lentils? Is it: A. The vitamin C in the orange juice reduces the non-heme iron in the spinach to its ferrous form for easier absorption B. I really should take a vacation from studying medicine C. Who cares it's delicious D. etc. etc. ... In any case, the saffron rice (included in the price, which isn't standard in Australia) and potato bread I ordered topped the night off well, and I'd be happy to eat here again. Note: their prices for taking out or eating in are significantly different if that matters to you.

The food was good, but unfortunately my memory of it is overshadowed by the poor service we received. Things went well when we arrived, a friendly greeting, our wine opened, glasses provided, but it all went downhill after our order was taken. It took over half an hour for the entrees to arrive (during which time a waitress asked if we would like her to remove the entree plates) and almost as long for the mains. Fortunately we had plenty to talk about, but the young family at the next table had two young boys falling asleep before they finished eating. The waitress asked if we would like more poppadums - they never arrived - and if we would like anther jug of water - ditto. A very pleasant meal spoilt by very poor service.

When we went an incredibly warm and friendly grandmother was making all the food solo on the stove, and absolutely everything was transcendently delicious. Highly recommend the butter chicken, which was beautifully spiced and creamy without being overly sweet, and the palak paneer, which was less oily and more flavourful than I've had elsewhere. The naan was superb too--I'd suggest the naan makhni. This place is tucked away from some of the more swanky, noisy joints in Peregian and has a lovely quiet spot opposite the park and the beach. So worth a visit!

We chose a serving of Butter Naan ($6), Steamed Basmati Rice ($2.50), Lamb Korrma ($26.50) and Chicken Tikka Masala ($24.50). The Rogan Josh was a rich garam masala curry with onions and tomatoes and the heat content 2 chillies out of three. The Chicken Tikka Masala consisted of stir fried onions and capsicum in an almond, fenugreek, tomato cherry sauce which was just as warm. The mains were served in small bowls but was sufficient, and equally delicious, and we're glad we listened to the restaurant manager assisting us with the menu.

Pretty well. They had a buffet just about going, but I didn't want to wait to them to set it up, and I ended up with a chickpea curry, rice, and bread. There was a little extra zest to that chickpea curry that might have been some Mexican spice, and it was pretty darn filling. The cheese and spinach naan I got was less impressive, fairly bland and only really good dipped in curry. Getting a rice and a bread wouldn't usually be necessary (I was hungry); note that you do have to order rice separately from the main course. I'd order differently next time, but I would go back for a next time.

My friend and I both got the smashed avo toast and were quite disappointed. We saw this place via…read morethe Instagram and wanted to try it out in person, though it's Instagram makes it seem more worthy than it is. The size of the avo toast we got was stupid, barely tided us over for an hour and a half until we needed to eat again. The coffee was nothing spectacular and the food was average, we've definitely had better. Service was incredibly rude to us for no reason. It took us a very long time just to order, about 20-30 minutes after sitting down. Ambience is average and there is "indoor" and outdoor seating. Basically: prices are higher than should be, service sucks, and food sizing was unacceptable.
