Wakatipu Grill - Cadrona New Zealand

Was expecting overpriced usual for Queenstown honestly the bar food we had was unbelievably good. Everything tasted sensational except the pork belly which was still good. We had the ciabatta, pork belly, spicy prawns and ribs. The drinks we ordered must've been lost because they took ages to come out but they were delicious when they arrived. Still super expensive but we left happy! Also of course an absolutely stunning view of the lake.

Our first dinner in New Zealand, and really exceeding expectations. From the reception to Mario, who was our waiter, they were excellent and super professional. Score 10/10 of the meal, we had a small starter, main course, dessert and drink... in an exceptional location that leaves anyone amazed. A beautiful experience and a very warm welcome. Thank you

I'm writing this as my 200th review mainly because this restaurant deserves each of these 5 stars. Excellent location as we were staying at the hotel so very convenient in terms of commute! I had a memorable dinner here with my cousin for her birthday and we were very pleased with the service, meals (I had the pork belly then the steak with roasted gourmet potatoes. My cousin had the lamb ribs and market fish), and ambience. I didn't have room for dessert unfortunately but we had a drink at the fire pit after dinner. My only feedback would be that the potatoes could have been a lot more crispier and that we could BYO. A lot of the time, my ideal wine isn't on 99.9% of the wine lists at restaurants in this country so am always on the lookout for places that have BYO so that I can enjoy my favourite wine with my meal. Other than this, I can't wait to eat here again at Wakatipu Grill and am looking forward to my next visit.

We went for our anniversary dinner there and oh boy the view of the lake, the ambiance and the food everything was on point! We had a lamb rump with truffle oil fries and a couple of pizzas. Everything was utterly delicious. Big shout out to the staff as well for making everything better for us. Can’t wait to go back again. Cheers!

Fantastic food and amazing service. Been twice now and can highly recommend. The chef's here certainly know there craft and have set the bar high for my future salmon and steak dinning.
