   Amazing place to have a good meal with great desserts while in town. This place tends to be booked out so better to book in advance rather than just turning up. We had the House Baked Bread, Slow Roasted Oyster Cut Lumina Lamb Shoulder and Tiger Prawn. For those of you who only eat halal meat they serve it here. Please ask the staff. In desserts we had Affogato, Vanilla Pannacotta and a couple of other desserts and they were absolutely amazing. You could actually just come to the restaurant to enjoy the amazing desserts!

   Great dinner at Botswana Butchery. 2 Steaks cooked to perfection, 1 was too rare for medium but the restaurant employees got it sorted super quickly and did not hide but came forward until we were happy. Great example of excellent customer service. Restaurant is very well staffed and the decor and ambience was excellent! Highly recommended.

   Fantastic as always. Definitely a top shelf venue that is consistently good. We shared a few entrees which were all delicious. I had a wagyu steak which good to my liking. Dessert was a real mix of flavours but very nice also. Definitely add this to your list and go if you haven’t been already.

   If you are looking for an amazing experience with your significant other or to spoil someone on a special occasion this is the place to take them. You are greeted by two friendly ladies (Sam), in fact all the wait staff are friendly and helpful. The have good knowledge of the menu and pairing wines with the food. I have had the Peking duck a number of times and absolutely love it. The flavour are rich and the meat is tender. The chicken liver pate is also a must try. It’s smooth and creamy. I just wish it came with more crostini. I am a big fan of gyoza and couldn’t reside these. They were finished off with a quick hit deep fry which I think finished them off nicely. The meat inside was tender and flavoursome. My husband always has some variation of the steaks they have on offer. The meat is always cooked exactly how he asked for it. Side are ordered additionally. There is an extensive wine and cocktail list. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want to spoil someone.

   Loveliest dinner we had in Queenstown. Though my wife and I didn’t have a reservation, they kindly seated us in the private room with a fireplace. We ordered the beef tongue and octopus, both of which were very delectable. I had the venison tenderloin and my wife had the salmon. The salmon was buttery with crispy skin, and the venison had an excellent sear that preserved the tenderness. The waitstaff were extremely helpful in guiding us through the impressive menu. Excellent food that’s well worth it and a must try after a long hike or ski run.

   First time for my partner and I at this iconic restaurant on Auckland’s waterfront and a decadent lunch in store. We visited on a reasonably quiet Saturday, which made the amazing waiting staff even more attentive to our every request. Knowledgable about food and wine pairings, which was an added bonus although something you would expect in this fine dining environs. The entree of Peking duck was delicious and enough to share while leaving room for the mains. Fried chicken was my partner’s choice, with a smooth mashed potato. I plumped for the Wagyu cheeseburger. Not basic by any means, with the burger so well cooked. Both were amazing and the wine accompaniment enhanced the overall flavour. I certainly recommend the Two Hands Sexy Beast Cabernet - a memorable name and a mouth-filler in reality. Dessert rounded the meal off with the Vanilla Pannacotta and Raspberry Chocolate Marquis both wonderful and high on presentation. The Marquis chocolate was of high quality. Outstanding experience, delightful menu and exemplary staff. We’ll be back soon…

   Gorgeous spot, very chic, perfect for special occasions/office dinner & drinks. Second time going, partners birthday this time. Service was stunning and they were so thoughtful for bringing us a complimentary birthday desert. Steak wasn't as melt-in-your-mouth as it was the first time I went, slightly disappointing. That said, it could've been a one off because everything else was delicious. I'd go back again :)
