Ate here at our anniversary. We were served by luciana from Argentina! Her service was lovely and the food was amazing! We ate Lamb and wagyu with chips and broccoli and it was 10/10. The soup of the day was very nice aswell!! Thank you Luciana for the service and the lovely experience dining with yous. Eric

Beautiful food (beef cheeks, pork belly, venison ribs & lamb shank was delicious) and service. Olga was wonderful and provided the best service we have ever experienced. Sheโ€™s a real asset! We will be back

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. Canโ€™t wait to go back again. Cheers!

This place is appalling. I should have read the reviews properly first. For a restaurant at a Hilton in New Zealand's top tourist town - this place is totally unacceptable. We had here the very very worst high tea experience ever - and we have had many. From start to finish the experience was dreadful. DO NOT GO HERE. Firstly, the online booking requires full payment for the High Tea upfront at the time of booking. $45 per person. The venue is a $33 Uber ride from Queenstown CBD. The menu looked ok. BUT started with the staff assembling the food with ungloved hands. The "sandwiches" were fridge chilled clumps of thick, stale bread rolls with revolting fillings. The food was awful. The maรฎtre d' did try, but failed to find any reasonable resolution. The whole experience was sadly dismal. Come on HILTON - this is NOT ACCEPTABLE!

We visited Wakatipu Grill in late-2019, during the Christmas season. Their 3-course dinner menu was lovely. The appetizer โ€“ย the baked ciabattas โ€“ were crusty, and the spiced butter spread on top was creamy and flavourful. For the entrees:ย The cured blue cod โ€“ย tender and smooth. The pan-seared salmon โ€“ย so succulent, and the sauce was sublime. The turkey breast, however, was overcooked and rubbery. Broccolini and garnishes tasted old. Dessert was fabulous โ€“ we love the pudding platter, the chocolate mousse and that creamy cherry mascarpone trifles. Overall, we were pleased with the dining experience.

I didn't really like the lamb ribs because the meat was too fatty and the salad on the side was not nice either. But except for that, everything else was wonderful!! We really enjoyed socialising with Hash and Phoenix at the bar by the fireplace.

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.

The taste is terrible. We ordered the market fish wrap, which cannot be picked up in one piece. The service is disappointing. I asked for two glasses of water with ice, and she brought me 2 cups with a jag of water. Then I asked for one glass of ice again. I don't know she forgot in 1 minute, or she didn't understand what I meant. I have to go inside and ask again. Also, the glass was not clean, which is disgusting. The only thing that comforts me is the view.
