Absolutely fantastic. From the brilliant service to the amazing food, I cannot fault a thing. The staff are attentive without being overbearing and portray a passion for the food and pride in what they have. The food... wow. The ingredients are showcased and treated with incredible respect, each and every dish was interesting and beautiful but above all tasted amazing. A special mention on the artichokes and the lamb I have never had artichokes so beautiful and the lamb absolutely magic. A real food experience, this is the place to eat in Wanaka. I will certainly return and next time I'll have the sense to leave room for dessert!

The meal was fantastic! The wine and cocktails were delightful, and the service was excellent. The standout dish was the salmon. We found this hidden gem while on vacation from Australia. A visit to this restaurant is a must if you're in Wanaka!
