Courier Mail food and wine guide Queensland 2008 Score: 14/20 "With black walls, faux chandeliers, bare concrete floor, and a kitchen as exposed as the cooktop in a studio apartment, Noi is the warehouse apartment of restaurants and it revels in the patina of Fortitude Valley's glamorous grunge"

Courier Mail Anooska Tucker-Evans, 24-6-2007 "At the Ann St end of Brunswick St, this bar and dining establishment is slick and classy. The walls are black and lined with a series of silver-framed mirrors, while three crystal and two iron chandeliers hang from the dark ceiling. From the mix of lounges, low tables and chairs, high bar stools, and covered outdoor courtyard, we chose to perch ourselves in one of the booths that line the left side of the premises.

Brisbane News Dining Out Guide 2007 "Escape the bustling hub of Brunswick Street and enter the long room that is Noi, where the feeling is upscale yet unpretentious"

Gourmet Traveller 2007 Australian Restaurant Guide "Dark and sleek, Noi is adorned with antique candelabras, a backlit bar and an open kitchen. It also doubles as a casually stylish diner with comfortable booths running the length of the room, which then opens out into a lounge and covered courtyard area (perfect for breakfast try the house-made banana and walnut bread)."

Courier Mail Lizzie Loel, 20-5-06 Score Food 16 Wine 14 Service 16 Ambience 16 "Noi (Italian for "us") opened about a month ago in the heart of Fortitude Valley, opposite the Press Club on the site of the former Main. Wedged between scary looking pizza places and kebab joints, Noi brings another level of dining to the strip and has an attractive room with covered courtyard set up as a bar. ... There are lighter dishes at lunch, and breakfast is served every day. Noi is a bright new star on the casual dining/bar front and with such a competent chef as Robson and a moody, atmospheric room, it should fire."
