It was underwhelming. But the lamb shank was great!! And we choose the "potato of the day" which was a cheesy, garlicy mess of deliciousness on the plate! The lamb salad had a nice yogurt dressing, lots of good veggies and feta cheese and the lamb was rare as requested. Overall eat lamb as intended here, and you'll be in good shape. We also both liked our beer and wine selections too.

So when I came back to Fox Glacier, I had to come back and have some more of that delicious lamb. Bottom line? They came through again. We each ordered the lamb shank. You can get either one or two; I got one and found it to be enough. The lamb came on the bone with some vegetables on the side. The lamb came with a savory sauce that had a touch of mint. The meat was very tender and practically fell off the bone. Once again, it was truly excellent. We ordered dessert and got the walnut brownies with a scoop of ice cream. They were quite good. Other than that, the service was great - I thought they were pretty fast in getting the food out. In the end, this place is great, and I'd absolutely recommend eating here. As for the lamb, it's still the best I've ever had.

We we advised to visit by the owner of our Airbnb, and we made reservations (that didn't seem necessary, it was just us and one other party) before visiting. Your mileage may vary on reservations. Their menu is small - only about 5 mains. They have quite a few accolades on their website regarding their beef and lamb offerings, so I went with the lamb fillets, which were three smaller pieces of lamb, ordered medium rare, rubbed with some middle eastern spices and served over some greens and cumin infused feta. The lamb was good - although came out borderline cool in the center, more rare than medium rare (although this was fine with me). Good although mild flavor, and I liked the spice rub. The salad was a little boring - there wasn't a ton of feta, but it was a nice accompaniment. There was also a little mashed potato croquette thing - a nice little crust on it, quite tasty. We also ordered a side of the cucumber fennel salad, which was exceptionally boring. Needed salt, vinegar, something, anything to bring out a little flavor. There was also very little fennel - I was imagining sliced or cubed fennel bulb, but it was really just fennel greens. But all in all, quite tasty meal. Others had the filo chicken - sort of a chicken roll with bacon, peppers, cream cheese, and almonds, wrapped in filo dough. This was really excellent, tender and moist, good balance of flavors, with a great kind of yogurt dressing. The location is pretty picturesque - not quite overlooking the ocean, but the sunset was really lovely on a nice weather day. The hotel/restaurant are set on some almost pasture land, with a scenic little water wheel...just kind of an idyllic setting. I would recommend this to anyone in the area looking for a little nicer meal than some of the spots in town (not that there's anything really wrong with what I had from restaurants in town).

I would recommend the bangers and mash, but not the pork ribs. They were dried out, overly drenched in sauce on a bed of french fries. The french fries were fine, but not my favorite type and became soggy quickly with all the barbecue sauce. I definitely would not order the ribs again. For dessert we had the sticky pudding and it was excellent. A good variety of wine and beer choices. We recommend the Alice May export gold beer and the Villa Maria Pinot Noir.
