Did you know that the perfect pizza is cooked in just 90 seconds at 450 degrees, in a real wood-fired pizza oven made by a third-generation family in Italy from hand-crafted brick and shipped to Noosa?
Your mouth will be watering even before you take the first bite, so make sure you start with the Italian negroni cocktail in your hands.
The restaurant’s colour scheme alone reflects a Tuscan palette, with splashes of olive green, warm wood and crisp blue.
But the delicious aromas will whisk you away to Italy before you can say ciao!
Italian Marina is the brainchild of new Noosa resident, Michelangelo.
Born and raised in Florence, Michelangelo promises only the very best, authentic Italian cuisine.
With 17 years of experience in the industry, Italian Marina is his third successful venue.
And what could be better than the Noosa Shire? Italian head chef Davide Benati will be using Noosa’s best local produce to create astonishing dishes, hand-made pasta, following traditional Tuscan recipes.
“We are creating a great atmosphere, which will become unique when added to the uninterrupted view over the Noosa River.”
Chef Davide was born and raised in Modena, and began his career at age of 13, working in his father’s restaurant. Over the years he has worked in some of the top restaurants in Italy and Australia, including the three-star Michelin-rated Florentine Enoteca Pinchiorri, Biota, Ormeggio.
You’ll also discover a great selection of good value red, white and sparkling wines from various regions of Italy, Australia and NZ, plus a range of beers.
With plenty of available parking, you don’t need to worry about the car.
Don’t feel like driving? Why not catch the ferry and enjoy a cruise along Noosa River, stopping at Noosa Marina and walking to the restaurant?
