They have great service and amazing wood fired pizza. The starters are just okay and slightly overpriced. It os worth going for the pizza. They also have some decent wines, including a merlot.

We dined in the fabulous glasshouse option & loved the playlist of jazz & divine decor. The wine & food were also impressive. Our main server Anna was an excellent addition to the casual but classy experience.

A couple of delicious woodfired pizzas & simple pear/rocket salad as takeaways after a day skiiing. Just what our family felt like. The lamb croquettes as a starter! Now that was a yummy surprise. Crunchy on the outside and creamy on the inside. Served with a tasty mint sauce. Like roast lamb only crunchy. 🙂

We were travelling around NZ from Australia, in Wānaka for two nights, and we were so impressed with Francesca’s gluten free Napoli pasta that we ate at the restaurant both nights. Best ever, absolutely delicious! Tasty and hearty food in a warm ambience. The customer service was super friendly, attentive and knowledgeable as well. Highly recommend!

The food and service was okay. The prices were geared to tourists with favourable exchange rates that’s for sure. I found the menu a little limiting We were in the glasshouse in winter which was really quite cold. I would avoid this next time. Inside was quite small and noisey. Better options in Wānaka.
