Embassy XO Restaurant and Bar

Embassy XO is easily one of the best lunch spots on the Sunshine Coast. We came for the yum cha lunch, which had a great mix of classic dumplings and more modern Asian plates. The service was warm, attentive and genuinely friendly. Overall, an outstanding lunch experience and fantastic value for the quality – we’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend Embassy XO to anyone visiting Sunshine Beach.

Always a lovely meal at Embassy XO, whether it’s leisurely snacks and drinks in the bar, yum Cha on the weekend or a long evening of delicious food and beautiful ambiance Have sampled our way through the menu on several occasions and the only item that didn’t quite hit the mark was the steak. While cooked medium rare and beautifully presented, the tenderness just wasn’t there. The duck and lamb curries are a must try with tenderness and an intricate flavour pairing that wows! For a simple snack the pork sandwiches with an ice cold beer can’t be beat. Extensive list of wine, cocktails and adult beverages to keep you coming back for more good times and leisurely evenings.

Phenomenal food and staff - highly recommend the share plates - and lots of them for all the flavours - faultless!

Embassy XO should be your go to for any large group (or small obviously). We held our work Xmas party there yesterday lunch and it was “faultless”. Cameron the manager stepped us through options for weeks in advance, adapted, suggested and I have to say every person had the best afternoon possible. I found out at the end of the day that one of our guests was vegetarian and Cameron quietly had the kitchen adapt every course to meet her needs! The fact that they have the sweetest lounge area onsite to start the festivities was a great ice breaker for partners of our contractors to feel comfortable. You really must go to XO Embassy to appreciate my comment of - THIS IS THE BEST FOOD IN NOOSA - it really is. So thank you team Cameron for making this the best xmas party to date.

Loved the food! We got the dumplings and bao which were delicious, as well as the mushroom medley noodles and duck with were also really good 👌the service is also perfect! Highly recommend. Yum cha looks great so I hope I can come back one day on the weekend for it.

Incredibly tasty food and excellent service. Amazing supply of Asian fusion. Also got to take leftovers home. Highly recommended.

We dined here as a family of four, including our toddler. The staff made us feel welcome immediately, helping with seating and aiding with the food for our kids. Everything was cooked well and came out fast. We loved the fried rice and the lamb rending in particular. Highly recommended!

Fantastic Modern Asian restaurant tucked away in Sunshine Beach. Restaurant, bar, and premium wine shop (Downstairs). The silken tofu stuffed zucchini flowers were sensational- not at all what we expected. Lamb wontons - also sensational. Mooloolaba Prawns with hand pulled noodles- yes, again sensational! The Kung Po Chicken was deboned, moist and delicious (not spicy). The wine list is extensive thanks to them owning the wine store downstairs. Great service and nice setting rounded off a perfect evening. Highly recommended.

Lovely modern Chinese kitchen, we went for the five course degustation menu ($65 per person) which was more than enough, especially as we followed up with a couple of shared desserts. Service was excellent and prompt, the five course menu took about two hours on a Saturday evening. Best dish? Probably the prawns, although all five were exceptional tasteful!

Delicous modern chinese cuisine at this beautifully designed restaurant. Our dinner on Saturday ended on a high note despite a small dissappontment of the noodle dish. We started off with oysters on shiro dashi ice (very creative) and scallop dumplings. Both were delicious! Next on to the mains - the beef cheeks live up to expectations. A must order. Tender decent pieces of beef cheeks braised to perfection in black bean sauce. The dish alone is a star. The other main, the handmade noodles with fraser island spanner crab was a major dissappointment. We so look forward to this one but we suspect the overly use of oyster sauce and fish sauce killed the dish making it too salty. We forced ourselves to finish the dish by segregating the noodles from the sauce and washin it down with water after a few spoonful. Dessert was stellar. Order the steam chocolatw bun with rasberry sauce. Well, tou dont need the rasberry sauce anyway since the bun is so good with oozing warm chocolate the minute you peel it open. We pay $140 for 2 cocktail drinks, 2 starters, 2 mains and 1 dessert. Very decently priced. Will come back.

Nice ambiance. Beef cheeks outstanding. Nice wine list. Modern Chinese cuisine. One of the better dining experiences on the Sunshine Coast.

Great food and great place, could not fault the whole experience. You are missing something special if you don't try it

Sunday lunch, Yum Cha, wr all went for banquet consisting of 12 dishes, usual suspects all very tasty, well cooked, cast $32 a head so pretty good value as all were full at the end. The selection was presented in 3 groups, with pork belly buns to start then stir and deep fried dishes followed by steamed dishes. Fried rice and also greens included, so all of us were fairly satisfied and there wasn't even a request for desert, of which there is only deep fried ice cream.

Avoid. Menu looks great but the execution is below standard, I don't mind paying more for excellent food but this was not even good or average. I understand the Sunday Yum Cha is consistently good but I would avoid at all costs for dinner. Both partner and I were unhappy with the meals, inedible.
