One of the best places to visit in Christchurch. The wine flights are masterfully curated, and Katie (sommelier) provided exceptional service. I was visiting from Sydney, but I’ll be back here in a heartbeat.
We had a wine flight and selected a glass each from that, and a couple of shared plates. An absolutely fantastic Sunday afternoon. Pleased we booked, it was busy.
Beautiful setting food was good and presentation awesome. We had the lamb flaps and hummus for entree, flavors where great. Venison main was delightful. The cauliflower main was under whelming though I was expecting something amazing for the price considering it was just cauliflower.
Service was ok, we felt that we were being rushed. We were expected to know what we wanted to drink within a minute of sitting down. I politely informed staff I'll choose my wine when I have decided on my dinner options. Why they were in such a rush we are not sure, as we had booked a two and a half hour slot,so we could enjoy our meal and wine, without rushing before going onto the Great Hall for a play.
Dessert Apple Tarte Tatin was to die for. Funnily it was the only time we were not being rushed ( might have been because it took 25min to prepare). Our wine was the Pegasus MAESTRO Merlot Malbec. Which I might say is highly recommend.
