This place is absolutely fantastic. The view of the lake and mountains from the patio is outstanding.
If you want to sit inside make a reservation.
The food is beyond amazing. Probably the best venison steak and salmon fillet I've ever had. The wait staff were great and very attentive. The beer and wine selection is great(more so the wine than the beer)and the prices for the drinks were fair.
One of the best place to dine (in the evening) as it is nicely located by the lake. If weather permits, one can dine and star gaze at the same time. We arrived into Lake Tekapo late in the evening and by the time we checked into our hotel, It was almost quarter to 9pm. The hotel (Grand Suites) highly recommended us to dine at TLV and helped us make a reservations as the (TLV) kitchen was closing soon. WE rushed and managed to arrive just before 9 pm and we were well received by the staff. We weren't rushed into ordering our food and the staff took time to walk us though the menu. The atmosphere in the restaurant is warm and pleasant. I ordered the Chilli Garlic Prawns, and garlic bread and my friend ordered the Pasta. All dishes were tasty and delicious. The restaurant is location behind the Lake Tekapo Village and by the lake. Not that difficult to find. After dining, one can take a stroll by the lake and/or star gaze. We had a fun chat with Bryan (or Brian) and the check-out. Thank you for your lovely service, and making our dining experience an unforgettable and delightful one. To add, lots of parking space so, .. :)
I recently had the pleasure of enjoying a delightful lunch with friends at TLV in Lake Tekapo, and I must say, it was an absolute treat for the senses. The food and drinks we ordered were simply beautiful, bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. From the moment we placed our order, the dishes arrived promptly, allowing us to indulge in a satisfying meal without any unnecessary delays. What truly impressed me, however, was the exceptional service provided by the staff at TLV. They were not only friendly and welcoming, but also attentive to our needs throughout the entire dining experience. Their warm and pleasant demeanor added an extra layer of enjoyment to our meal, making us feel valued as customers. I found the prices at TLV to be quite reasonable, especially considering the generous portions we received. Overall, I highly recommend TLV with its delicious food, attentive staff, and fair prices, this establishment truly stands out as a must-visit destination for food enthusiasts.
