Went here for dinner for my birthday. Was a lovely spot. Greeted with a friendly welcome. We arrived early and our seat was ready. We had a waiter that was in training, Adam. He was a lovely guy and was attentive to our experience. Food took a little long to come out but it was ok, we enjoyed our wine. We got steak frites and eye fillet. Was very tasty. The goose fat potatoes were gorgeous. Little bit on the pricy side. Meal was about $220 for 2 mains sides and bottle wine. Nice treat.

We stopped by and there was a table for 5 available. I wasn't that hungry but the menu changed my mind! Service: just enough attention and our waitress was very helpful with the wine selection. One member in our party ordered a burger without mustard. It came with mustard and the error was very quickly resolved. The Venison was cooked perfectly and every bite was tender. No gamey flavor. Our group also had the seafood chowder and several sides: broccoli with a spicy peanut sauce, crispy new potatoes and house and Cesar salads. We were happy! This restaurant is a good place for parties of 5-8. There are several large booths. It's also wheelchair accessible. We would eat here again!

This was a fantastic meal and restaurant. My partner and I came here for dinner having never been before and we were very impressed. Our waitress, unfortunately I can’t remember her name, she was fantastic. Her passion for providing over and above service really showed. The food was incredible and cooked perfectly with wonderful flavour. We got the Ribeye, duck breast, duck fat potatoes, mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables. And if you’re looking for a very good Sauvignon Blanc, I highly recommend the Amisfield. Will definitely be returning when we come to Queeenstown next.

While staying in Queenstown we booked Eichardt's and was quite looking forward to dining there, menu had some great choices and reviews were very positive. Unfortunately our experience was one to remember for all the wrong reasons as the early evening new years eve early menu was a set menu with some menu options we would never choose, obviously focussing on the later evening degustation event. We did mention we were not advised of this set menu and would not have booked if we had know, which resulted in us then been ignored for at least 30 minutes due to this. After advising we where very disappointed with the service they did redeem themselves by a two glasses of bubbles but we left feeling let down not only by the service, but the dishes we did eat just wasn't up to the standard we were expecting for this restaurant. Shame, as they have an awesome looking menu in a fantastic location. Food: 3 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 4

French onion soup - This was a good onion soup. The soup base was intense like the French ones but the French were too salty. This one was just right. One thing it can improve, more cheese. Legendary seafood chowder - The name itself was a gimmick. I've had way better chowder from many many places. This was probably one of the more average one. Not saying it's not tasty, but the amount of cream, the thickness, and from all the seafood ingredients, you want to have a balanced but also strong enough to taste the presence of them. Not impressed. Beef bourguignon - Average. The beef were fine but the sauce overwhelmed by red wine, you want to have red wine to compliment the flavor of the beef not the other way around. This one I couldn't taste the flavor of the beef but just wine. The pasta was Al dente👍🏼. Sirloin steak - Great quality. The beef is tender, tasty. The thickness of the steak actually became an issue. The grill steak I had in America is not big by volume but thick as texture. I also preferred stronger grill taste. Normally, you need a very strong grill to char it, locked in the juice and then it'll crisp up on the outside then lower it to grill it to medium rare. Or you can sous vide it to perfect temperature and charred it with strong flame grill. This steak was not grill to crisp, in fact, it was warm when it was served. The peppercorn sauce also underwhelmed. I had to add fresh ground pepper to spike up the flavor. This is a fine dine restaurant, I expected more from it. Otherwise, it's still quality cooking and it's not fair to compare to Michelin stars restaurants. Meal type Dinner Price per person $60–70 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Fabulous lunch at Eichardt’s Grille. Had not been before - and having been to Botswana Butchery a few too many times this was a very solid alternative to BB that we will definitely come back to. Whole shoulder of lamb was really tasty as was the berry meringue dessert. Meal type Lunch Price per person $100+ Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes Mashed Potato
