    Delicious Soup in Queenstown!
    Jeff L.

    Appreciated the efforts of William and Becca in helping make the dining of myself and my 93 years old mother in a wheelchair an enjoyable experience The "Fish of the Day" dish was excellent but my mom LOVED the chowder

    Excellent food but took a very long time to get the food delivered. Restaurant wasn't overly busy so not sure why.

    The ribeye comes with a square of au gratin layered potatoes which were not terribly memorable, but the steak was cooked perfectly to requested temp.

    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.

    When in Queenstown... This place is known for their ice bars, so I knew I had to try one of them…read more This one was under $30 for 1 hour experience, including 2 drinks (mocktails available), jackets and gloves. The exterior was cute with a huge, adorable furry polar bear in front. We were fitted for our jackets, given a short tutorial, then it was time to enter the icy wonderland. The interior was a bit smaller than expected, but it was impressive, as the whole space was made out of ice and bathed in colorful lighting. There were also quite a few elaborate ice sculptures, mostly of animals, such as a life size horse, eagle, penguin, and more. There were also several ice chairs and benches, with fur on top, indicating they could be sit on. Since I was only getting mocktails, I was able to select 4 drinks. Bartender was welcoming and wonderful. The drinks were made in front of you and poured into a cup made of ice, which could be smashed afterwards. The mocktails consisted of flavors such as Apple, Pineapple, Kiwifruit and Pineapple, Lime, Coconut. They were sweet, fruity, and refreshing. We stayed the full hour, until the song "Ice Ice Baby" was played. It was nice to be there the whole time, because toward the end there were only a couple of us, which made for much better photos! I had a lot of fun and really enjoyed this icy time!

    A fun little experience if you are in Queenstown! I liked that it was family friendly, the kids…read moreenjoyed their time there, until they got too cold! It's a small bar, but there are not a lot of groups at one time so you have room to move around and take photos. The drinks are ok, pricey for what they are but you're paying for the experience. The staff gives you gloves and jackets to wear and I stayed plenty warm. The music and the lights are a fun touch and you can feel free to touch all of the sculptures. If you've never done an ice bar, this is a good one to check out.

    Stopped in here for a beer on what's Thanksgiving in the US. I wanted some comfort food so what…read morebetter place than an Irish pub? Ordered their famous beef & guiness pie. Really wanted a shepherd's pie but I didn't see it on the menu. The crust was perfectly cooked. Flaky and delicious. I loved their gravy on top. I thought the meat on the inside was just ok. It was flavorful but not the best pie I've had in NZ (which was at a place on Athol on the way down to Te Anau btw). I'm an American so take that with a grain of salt. Don't get me wrong it was good, just not great. Oh and I loved the slice of soda bread they gave you. First time trying that! Had a few NZ IPA's as well which were FANTASTIC. I don't remember the name. Anyway, everyone was friendly. I thought the prices were kind of high for a pie & a bit of mash--but perhaps that's just the tourist tax in Queenstown. Would 100% come back but I think I would try the Irish stew instead.

    We had great service and food. You order at the bar and they bring you the food. They also will…read morebring you a bottle of water. The fireplace down states was lit the night we visited. There is an upstairs for dining and also an outdoor deck upstairs and the patio. Staff were friendly and efficient. I had the roasted vegetable salad and added chicken. It was great value and very fresh ingredients. My friend had the steak that came with fries, onion rings and salad. He opted for the creamy mushroom sauce on the side. I'd go back!
