Tucked into the Parklands Boulevard shopping strip in Meridian Plains, Kisseafoods has quietly built one of the most loyal local followings of any takeaway on the Sunshine Coast. The formula is straightforward and it works: every ingredient hand-picked, every order cooked fresh, and a range spanning crispy seafood, gourmet burgers and loaded chips that gives the whole suburb a reliable reason to skip cooking on a weeknight.
The seafood is the heart of it. Golden, perfectly crumbed cod is the hero, joined by calamari, barramundi, seafood baskets, clam chowder and house-made dill mayo that customers keep coming back specifically for. The chip game is taken just as seriously, with both potato and sweet potato options, chicken salt as a matter of course and slow-cooked brisket with gravy on cheese chips for those who want something genuinely over the top. The gourmet burgers round out a menu that covers far more ground than most takeaways in the area dare to attempt.
What the reviews reflect consistently is a kitchen that cares about the standard of what leaves the pass. Generous portions, fresh produce handled with precision, gluten-free batter available, and a team that takes phone orders ahead of time for those who know how busy it gets on a weekend. The outdoor seating along the main walkway makes it a proper sit-down option for those who want to eat on the spot rather than head home.
Located at Shop 9/238 Parklands Boulevard, Meridian Plains and open every day from 11am to 8pm. Online ordering is available through the website for delivery across the broader Sunshine Coast area.
