We happened to be walking past and saw some other guests eating and the food looked and smelt amazing. We headed in and was excited to have a meal similar to what we would cook at home, and we weren't let down. So gooood!

A great concept, slow cooked food - served fast. Happy customers!

We were on a tour and introduced by our tour guide to this restaurant. The restaurant is cosy and lovely, the food is ok too.

However it is quite over priced and the staff at the counter is not very friendly.

The staff was very friendly, telling us how to order. We ordered 2 medium plates and they were enough for us for lunch AND dinner. Good choice to hang out when you are in Wanaka.

A great departure from your normal takeaway option. Tasty slow cooked meat, delicious vegetable and salad dishes to take out or eat in. Perfect option for a meal if the cook in the family is away. Service is slick so even with a queue your wait won’t be long.

A must visit for travellers sick of eating fast food on the go. Great prices, very tasty, and healthy. You get to see what you get. Pick and choose what you want on your plate. Slow cooked food served fast.
