Why it's worth checking out
Rice Boi sits at The Wharf on Parkyn Parade in Mooloolaba, on the Sunshine Coast's popular waterfront. A modern Asian restaurant, it's earned a strong following for its flavour-packed, contemporary Asian cooking and good drinks — the kind of vibrant, sociable spot, with a lovely waterside setting, that's become a genuine favourite for a fun meal out.
The appeal is that combination of quality, modern Asian food, a good drinks and cocktail offering and a buzzing, waterfront setting at The Wharf, ideal for a casual dinner, drinks and shared plates or a fun night out by the water. Its contemporary, share-style approach to Asian dining makes it a great fit for a sociable evening, and Rice Boi has clearly won over a big, loyal crowd.
With a 4.4 rating from more than 2,800 reviews, it's clearly a firm favourite. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular waterfront restaurant fills up over weekends and holidays, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're dining with a group, after a table at a peak time, or visiting Mooloolaba in peak season.
