The style of food is 'modern'Australian-- probably most influenced by the Mediterranean but occasionally some dishes that may be more Asian inspired. Premium quality produce that hasn't been overworked is the cornerstone, then sauces that enhance rather than overshadow. We are dedicated to using fresh local produce when possible and we are fortunate to be in this beautiful region with real sea and paddock accessibility. Our kitchen is passionate about creating dishes that reflect the region using classic technical skills. We want to have THE Noosa influence. Although relying heavily on local produce, we also, like at times, to add to those heavenly holiday extravagances---like caviar and truffles when available.

The dining experience at berardo's is meant to be a performance of many parts----great food, great service, great wine and great ambience. These parts should all culminate in a sense of 'theatre' and a great dining experience.
As part of our ongoing education for the staff,The Celebration of Australian Food and Wine Noosastyle was conceived. This enabled the kitchen to be exposed to the talents of some of Australia's best Chefs.
Each year, over twenty of Australia's leading Chefs participate in three separate degustation dinners at berardo's.This is a unique experience and great exposure which no doubt , has an influence on moulding the talents of our chefs.
