Red Emperor - Table reservation

We love fish and chips we really do and we eat it pretty much everywhere that we visit. But we won’t be going back to this place unfortunately ! Strolling along the banks of the Noosa river we decided to grab some lunch and...spotted the Red Emperor. We ordered barra and chips and took our seats outside whilst we waited. What arrived was a surprisingly yellow and extremely oily meal and one that neither of us finished due to its greasy content. The chips were so bizarre like Chernobyl chips an alarmingly bright yellow unnatural looking chip which put us off immediately and a half hour later caused an immediate reaction with my stomach. Definitely one to avoid.

Terrible chips, fish so overcooked you could have been eating the cardboard box it came in and not known, claim to be selling coral trout, red emperor and pearl pearch…not really convinced as all portion size fillets seem as though they’d be very undersized, not...sure how it works for fish n chip shops but if I caught a coral trout that size I’d definitely be throwing it back…calamari very disappointing, and steer well clear of the tartare sauce…shame it’s so hard to find good honest fish and chips

Went at lunch time on a weekday. Had crumbed hoki which was quite nice but the chips were the worst I have ever had. Half had been over cooked to the point I could have broken a tooth and the other half were were dripping...with oil. Had to throw them to the seagulls and even they turned their noses up.

that was fast fresh and simply brilliant. as before have heard a takeaway, they know when eating fresh and clean oil is used. can not be mistaken and great selection.

Just want to thank Michelle and the guys today for a really great lunch. They made the best battered fish I have had in a long time. Will be back again soon.
