    Coconut panna cotta with passion fruit syrup

    Well executed mains. Both the duck and lamb dishes were done well. The appetizer menu selections could be bigger. Ordered an apple cider from the menu, got a highly filtered version which tasted very clean but lacked apple aroma. The dessert was a bit disappointing in which the coconut panna cotta was a bit too sweet and the passion fruit syrup was not tart enough. Apart from the minor imperfections it was an enjoyable evening and the main dishes more than made up for it.

    Our first meal arriving in New Zealand's beautiful Te Anau was at the Ranch Bar & Grill. We ate…read moreoutside and it was really relaxing. The service was friendly and efficient; the food was delicious. Definitely want to come back here when we visit Te Anau in the near future!

    You won't starve in New Zealand and certainly not in Te Anau. If you're taking a break from the…read moreother proteins and you're not feeling pasta or pizza and wanting fresh and tasty seafood, look no further than the menu at The Ranch Bar & Grill in Te Anau. Full disclosure: I know my seafood (I'm a seafood snob). This was fresh seafood thoughtfully complemented with delicious vegetables and just enough carbs to replenish calories from a long day of hiking and jet-boating. The Ranch is a popular, large-sized, casual restaurant / bar with indoor and outdoor seating (so no long lines). Prices were good and service was fast and friendly. Even though I didn't have a reservation and was dining solo, seating was fast and the waitstaff did not forget about me. I highly recommend what I ordered (see photos: Monkfish and Salmon stack + Salt & pepper calamari salad). This restaurant is conveniently located near many hotels and walking distance to a variety of local shops. Safety-tip: If you plan to take an after-dinner stroll in the evening, note your surroundings and avoid unlit areas. Don't flash cash and expensive jewelry and absolutely don't use an ATM at night. Remember to look for the "zebra crossing poles" - distinctive black and white striped poles topped with either a flashing yellow globe or fluorescent orange discs noting the crosswalks.

    First night in queenstown and was looking for some food and drinks for our jet lagged selves…read more Smiths did not disappoint. My partner had the lamb burger, we shared the poutine, and I had the venison pot pie. Portion sizes are huge so I had to take away some of my pot pie and some leftover poutine in a box. Taste wise, my partner enjoyed his burger, we both loved the poutine, and the venison pot pie was good but a little too sweet for my liking. The poutine, while used mozzarella instead of cheese curds, was our favorite and would just come here to order a few orders of that. We also got a flight to share to try some local brews including 3 sours, 1 ginger beer, 1 cider, and 1 lemonade. They were all good and I especially liked the ginger beer on the menu. The alcoholic lemonade was also quite nice and better than any alcoholic lemonades I've had in the states.

    I recently had the short rib burger which I did not like at all. Dry meat and very little that was…read moremoist enough to eat. A day latter and the Smith Burger is everything I'm looking for, It was a perfect medium rare, I didn't ask for - but nonetheless so good, a great combination of sauces and garnishes made this one of the super burgers I've eaten. So delicious and satisfying. Moist, flavorful, and just so damn good - it's everything thing the Fergburger wasn't. I tried the fried cauliflower as well -wonderful-be brave and get the hot. A fantastic beer selection as well.
