What a buffet breakfast with a choice of any 6 items. The taste was not bad for so many items. The toasted bread was tasty and the coffee with vanilla was so good. Good service and a nice atmosphere. The beautiful Lake Wanaka is just a minute away. Free 60P to 120P minutes car parking time. Enjoy! (2023-12)

Seems a little crazy when you walk in, but promise it's worth the wait! We were worried about finding a place to sit to dine in, but it wasn't a problem. By the time we selected our food and paid, there were tables available. Everything was delicious and the location close to the lake made for a nice view sitting outside.

What a fantastic place! I wasn't sure about the concept. I mean, as I understood it, it's premade slow cooker food? At a restaurant? But yes, it works. Healthy tasty options, lots of them. And everything I had was great. Beef cheeks, lentil stew, rice with something, some kind of salad with fennel.. all great. Many desserts and treats, but I was too full to try them. Also nice is that they have both still and sparkling water free and on tap. Just nice!

Highly recommended “slow food, served fast” place with middle eastern inspired flavours! We are on holiday in New Zealand and have been struggling to keep our diet relatively healthy, so it was true joy to find a place that allowed us to eat more nutritious food without sacrificing taste. Here, you choose 1 meat dish and supplement it with a variety of sides / salads. The meatballs and beef cheek were delicious and perfectly cooked, and the selection of sides were all well-made and tasty. The pitta bread and hummus was also so good we ordered extra portions! There’s also gluten free cake options available here. Really a great find for lunch and super worth it!

What an amazing meal if you love healthy & organic food!!!! The lamb & beef meat ball & the beef cheeks were delicious. The vegetables were on rotation, by the time we got there, the broccoli only just sold out, so they ended up with carrots instead. All 4 salads we tried were amazing. Loved the mulled wine.

A truly remarkable restaurant in the area! The restaurant is situated right by the lake, and the panoramic view there is simply breathtaking. Their wide selection of diverse and unique salads undoubtedly adds a refreshing twist to New Zealand cuisine. In addition to the delicious salads, they offer delectable seafood dishes with Mediterranean influences. The service is self-service.
