Excellent meal chefs choice large selection of dishes for all to try and the chef came out to ask how our meal was.
Such a great place that we just stumbled upon. After having our first choice place booked out, we checked Google Maps and saw this place and phoned them. Although they only take bookings, as it was just two of us they said come on down. Tapas style, delicious dishes. We had four different ones and that was a perfect amount. The waitress was run off her feet but provided excellent service to all patrons. A real delight.
Absolutely incredible food! Crispy chicken goujons are to die for. Would probably recommend 1.5 dishes per person - 2 each was a bit much (especially if you want dessert after). I will note that most items on the menu include cheese (parmesan etc).
My parents were apprehensive given it's predominantly an accommodation business, but the restaurant is great stand-alone 😊
Well worth the drive out from town, a hidden gem.
Super venue for an evening's dining. The biggest decision was how many dishes to order. We went for 3 between the two of us and found that perfect as it left us room for a dessert each (others may prefer more). The drinks list is comprehensive and there's something for everyone. The staff were fabulous, friendly and attentive. We would happily go back and try another selection of dishes from the menu.
An incredibly gorgeous dinner spot! Had the prawns and the slow cooked lamb - both absolutely delicious. The staff are so lovely and they cater easily to dietary requirements with lots of dairy free, gluten free and even vegan options.
A different dining experience was really enjoyable. Meal quality was superb and excellent service. Highly recommend you try Restaurant 1861.
A lovely location with delicious food. The tapas were so tasty with amazing variety of tastes! Friendly staff we enjoyed chatting to, including the chef who gave us some great ideas for the rest of our trip! Definitely recommend if you get to visit Oamaru! Thanks!!
Excellent food, cooked with heart. All in all a wonderful evening, and the chef popped out to have a chat. If you’re visiting Oamaru, you can stay after in the historic house, which is next level stunning.
A tapas place? in Oamaru?
You got it.
Bookings a must - its always popular.
Located in the North end of Oamaru. A bit off the track so maybe a little hard to find. (End of Alt St which is off Fleet St.)
But still worth the effort, every time.
Now has some newer menu items added to the menu and many old favourites are retained. So plenty to choose from.
Absolutely amazing, quality meals. Awesome area. Feels like a restuarant that you have traveled a few hours away to go to. Can't recommend enough. Had the meatballs, prawns, potatoes, chicken, lamb, goat feta balls AND dessert - all amazing! WE WILL BE BACK.THANK YOUUUU!!!
Oamarus best kept secret. Lovely initmate setting in beautiful character heritage listed BnB. Went for a family dinner and ate plenty of beautiful homemade tapas and drank lovely wine :) great date spot, social or family occasion. Very tasteful.
