GoodBased on 389 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Cheyne Kupfer2024-08-07So we ordered the Degustation, and I have to say that it was one of the most enjoyable meals I've had for dinner while here in Queenstown. The service was so fantastic, the drinks were good, and they do a mean mojito. But truly, above and beyond service, and every single person here should make it their number one priority to come visit this amazing restaurant.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Drew Harmer2024-08-02Great location, amazing cocktails, superb food with unrivaled service, hospitality at its very best!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.ming ming cheong2024-07-19asked them to make a cocktail(long island iced tea) that wasnt on the menu yet they were still able to do it.
