This is my first time going to Augellos, and I have to say they did not disappoint.
For someone like me who has allergies, there's a little uncertainty about going to a new restaurant.
When I asked the waiter, who turned out to be the manager. His reaction was no problems at all; just tell me what you can and can't have, and we'll make it happen.
Sigh of relief. I also saw on the menu they cater for people who are Gluten-free, vegetarian or vegan.
They also do takeaway.
They were fully booked, and they have a kitchen you can see into, which is always pretty cool to see. One thing I noticed is that the staff were not rushed or overwhelmed. The restaurant had a great atmosphere. Our meals didn't take forever to come out, and they were sensational.
I will definitely recommend booking ahead.
It's no wonder they are one of the longest-standing restaurants in Mooloolaba.
A pre-booked table not ready when we arrived. All good we were seated a few minutes later. The wait staff seemed distracted and distraught when I advised that our group was not having the set menu. Wait staff seemed to think this was a given. Only 1 drinks menu available for the table we asked several times. Ordered wine took 45 minutes to have that delivered. Others on the table had their mains sides delivered prior to entree. One of our group is coeliac and ordered a GF free option which was delivered with bread on the plate! Noisey atmosphere staff were overrun. We were not asked about the bill payment for our large group and we had to rock up 1 x 1 and relay what each person/couple were paying for. Very weird. The food when it finally arrived (mine anyway) was hot fresh and tasty.
Other group members complained about a serving size of a lamb shoulder.
Limited wine list and average quality with above average pricing. It’s a big no from myself and others in our group. The wait staff were friendly enough but just not focused or way too distracted.
I will not be returning an extremely expensive and disappointing night all round and sad as it was a ‘celebration’ for 2 of our group. I was embarrassed that I suggested this place & the interstate visitors were not impressed.
Pizzas were the worst we’ve ever had. So so salty felt like they’d been dipped in the ocean before being served. We ordered 4, one which was gluten free and it was beyond terrible. My friend got her money back as her crusts were clearly burnt and instead of making a new base — they just completely cut off the crusts hoping we wouldn’t notice.
Absolutely fantastic spot that catered for gluten free as well, I got the meat platter and it was divine! Staff are absolutely lovely as well! Definitely one to visit!
My family and I always have an enjoyable meal at Craft, breakfast lunch and dinner. We always have a meal here whenever we are up here from Brisbane and have been doing so for 6 years. My family have gluten free meals and there are always plenty of quality options. Highly Recommended.
Love this place. Very friendly staff. They have food safe for a celiac and understand the seriousness of auto immune diseases.
Great priced food, excellent service and atmosphere.
We loved the 7 course degustation dinner along with the wine pairing. The flavours on plate were wonderful, the wine fantastically paired with each serving.
The atmosphere was also fantastic.
P..S - the team were also able to cater for me as a coeliac with no bother at all.
Decent portion sizes, tasted nice, went for both a crumbed and a naked chicken wrap.
Not too many GF options, and definitely not the best too.
Paid $31 for 2 wraps..
On our naked gluten free wrap, it was written honey soy, which we didn't ask for, and staff told it's just written wrong.
No allergic reaction so assuming it was just incorrectly written.
Montezumas at Mooloolaba is well established and offers a great menu as well as an extensive drinks list.
We easily booked on line for 6pm and requested a booth for 5 of us. There was plenty of room for 6. They also offered tables both inside and out under the covered deck - at the entrance.) I’m glad that we booked at lunch time that day, as we may have missed out on a booth if we hadn’t.
The service was outstanding and the restaurant is well decorated with the Mexican theme. The team were well presented, fun, professional, helpful, friendly and kind. The young lady that served us was very impressive with her approach.
The menu offers a wide choice of delightful and flavoursome Mexican dishes. We enjoyed dips to share and a main each as well as several jugs of sangria. All were delicious and we came away very full. They catered well for my dairy free and gluten free diet.
Montezuma’s Mooloolaba is my favourite Montezumas restaurant. It is well run, is in a fabulous location and offers a brilliant level of service.
I highly recommend La Casa as we were pleasantly surprised when our family group had lunch there today. Excellent food with friendly staff and great service! I am celiac and they were more than happy to accommodate my dietary requirements.
The reviews are correct this place is amazing. My coeliac wife ordered a large pizza gluten free. No issues and Sensational. Mooloolaba’s hidden secret. Ps Google maps has it in Burnett St but it’s in River Esplanade just about opposite Parkyn Parade.
Very rude staff! I asked for one of their gluten free cakes, as I have celiac disease. They packaged my cake with my husband's, and the young girl rolled her eyes when my husband asked if they can be in separate boxes due to the severity of my celiac disease.
Fantastic dining experience! We had the best service and the food was delicious and fast. Highly recommend trying the seafood chowder, tempura prawns and Moreton bay bugs with chilli sauce. Plenty of gluten free options too!
What a great night for a group! Molly, I can’t thank you enough for making our evening so enjoyable. Your service was awesome & made the night so easy. The food was AMAZING, the entire table loved it & please tell the kitchen how grateful we are for the gluten free menu being so delicious & creative.
Standard franchise but retaining quality service.
Really polite staff, clean and tidy shop, inside and alfresco eating, fresh produce and reasonably priced. Gluten free noodles (rice) 🍜 😋
Food was lovely and perfect location for a nice dinner meal. Ordered the lamb korma, chicken sigwaala and some naan breads. Service was a little slow, however definitely friendly and worth the wait. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.
All curries are gluten free which makes it a great option for coeliacs.
We were visitors to Australia and spent a few days at Mooloolaba
We were a coeliac, a vegetarian and a pescatarian
The staff were welcoming and helpful, pointing out which dishes were gluten free
The food was delicious, meat, fish and vegetarian and was reasonably priced
Our only regret was that we weren’t staying long enough to visit a second time
Celiac friendly
