This place was Akarua Wines & Kitchen by Artisan, not to be confused with the winery. Lovely place, great atmosphere we are only giving this three stars because of the extras on the menu, we ordered Beef Cheeks to share which was nice, small portion for what you paid for two people. My friends ordered a portion of potatoes cost 14 crazy, we ordered the corn for 18 for four small pieces burnt Dissatisfied with the price of the sides be warned well over the top of any sides we have ever ordered and with a small main made it a very expensive lunch. Would go back only fir the wines and selected meals, in Queenstown no need for overcharging for sides like that. Four of us eat out a lot and we were all disappointed overall

Friendly staff. Great wine tasting. really enjoy it
Let us start with a positive it was a lovely setting. We had a table of 4 women, we waited for an unacceptable time for all our plates to come out (15mins) between the first plate and last plate being delivered. The salmon dish 85 for 2 people looked like it had come out of the packet and was dry and underwhelming, the 2 sides of asparagus and tomatoes showed no flair or flavour. We had to walk up to the counter to ask for water, our wines never got refreshed unless we asked for more. 112 per person. Not a great experience considering the great food we have experienced elsewhere.
Booked a lunch here after a recommendation and although the food, wine and outdoor setting was amazing the service was parallels apart. We asked to sit in the sun as there were many tables available and this didn’t seem to impress one waitress who hardly spoke to us while serving us the whole time we were there. When the food came out she failed to say a thing, meaning I touched the fish pie plate having no idea it had been in the oven and now have a massive burn on my hand. We then asked another waitress about the wine tasting and she replied she didn’t know because she was new. Unfortunately we cut our visit short and had a much nicer experience at Amisfield down the road.
Such a wonderful setting for lunch…only surpassed by the smoked Salmon and freshly baked bread then paired with a "25 steps to heaven" Rose –
Beautiful location, very friendly and knowledgeable host. Would recommend wine tasting. The limited edition pale port fantastic.
We came here for breakfast and I must say it was outstanding. I had the big breakfast and it was delicious - the hollandaise sauce was the best I've ever had, sooooo yummy. My husband had the smoothie bowl and really enjoyed it. The waitress remembered me from a previous wine tasting and stopped to have a chat. We had a really great experience and would recommend them to anyone visiting them area.
Love their wines and we are on the mailing list. In visiting yesterday I bought a bottle of the rose for 30 (highest discount available) only to discover that it is available elsewhere for up to 10 a bottle less!! Very disappointing.
