Eichardt's Grille is situated at Marine Parade, which is the most premium spot in Queenstown. Warm greeting upon arrival and seated almost immediate because we made a booking. Nice view and ambiance, I knew I was in for a treat. Lovely, attentive and chatty wait...staff at Eichardt's Grille, which is always a nice bonus. Food was good, but felt it needed a bit more oomph for both the starter and main. We were celebrating our anniversary, but no mention of it from anyone or acknowledgment which was rather disappointing. Something I would expect from a fine dining restaurant at this price point given we particularly picked this restaurant to celebrate the event. I'd give it another opportunity next time I'm in town and would love to stay at the hotel too.More

Steak cooked to perfection. Duck was melt in the mouth , especially the orange sauce. The sides that we ordered were very generous portions. Our waiter from Australia ( Luke ) was helpful and enjoyed chatting . Plenty of staff in a beautiful restaurant setting...with a view of the lake. Would return for sureMore

We visited the Grille while in Queenstown NZ. The service was excellent and the food even better. Great atmosphere in a friendly though proffesional environment.

The food and drinks were amazing, but what really stood out was the exceptional service my friends and I received from our waitress Devita! Not only did she greet us with a huge smile and friendly presence but she recommended dishes that we all absolutely...loved and devoured. Definitely recommend coming here if you're visiting Queenstown!More

We couldn’t fault our experience. We took the waitresses recommendations on food and wine which were both perfect! Everyone who served us were friendly and welcoming. Also, we recommend booking a table next to the window and early time 5-5:30 ish so you can watch...the beautiful while the sun goes down.More

Overall experience was disappointing unfortunately. Worst is that I emailed them my feedback and they didn’t even bother to acknowledge it. So about our experience… We appreciated their ability to accommodating us even though our booking for three was actually for another night. The night...was off to a good start with some great cocktails at the bar and some delicious entrees & sides. Our main dissatisfaction however, was primarily when the mains arrived. We ordered three sirloins (one rare, two medium-rare). The two medium-rare sirloins arrived quite overcooked (close to well done) which our waitress brought back to the kitchen. After much discussion she came back and offered to prepare one new steak and suggested the other was actually fine for a medium-rare steak. We were quite disappointed that a steak grill house could honestly think that the well cooked steak was considered close enough to medium-rare to be fine. We declined that this was okay and she returned it to the kitchen. When returned, the second sirloin was now clearly not a sirloin (as we had two other sirloins to compare it to at this point) however we decided not to pursue this any further. Aside from the steak, our waitress had quite poor body language throughout the evening. We received sighs and eye rolls when we were not ready to order, when we provided initial feedback with the steak, among other minor, noticeable reactions throughout the night, and this started before the issue with the mains. The lady at the bar, and the gentleman at the front desk however, were great and very polite and cordial. We complimented him on the service provided, but unfortunately could not extend this to our waitress. Anyway, will I go back, no. Will I recommend this place to my friends, no.More

The service was dreadful. Literally took 20 minutes for them to even offer us drinks then another 18 minutes for a meal order to be offered. Time between starters and entree and main was outrageously slow and when we needed something as minor as salt...we couldn't get anyones attention at all so went without. The wine list is ordinary. The view fabulous and location is great but they need to step up the staff training and retrain from scratch. We had a dinner booking in place a couple nights later and cancelled based on the lunch experience. Hard pass.More

My partner and I went for a special dinner out and we were blown away with the service, atmosphere and incredible food. Our server (I believe his name was Daniel) was great and very accommodating. 10/10 for him. The food, wow! Unbelievable - such great...choice and well worth the price. We ate the lamb, sirloin, seasonal vegetables (broccolini was superb!) and mash. All so yummy. Beautiful cocktails too. Cannot wait to return again.More

The service was exceptionally slow and disjointed. Meals were missing some ingredients. Sommelier vanished after decanting the wine so we had to pour ourselves. Certainly not up to a restaurant bearing the Eikhardt name. Only the waitress lived up to the standard.

Loved the ambiance, the service was great, staff were extremely helpful, we had friends from Brazil with us & they were able to translate the menu for them. The food was delicious, especially the seafood chowder, still thinking about it now 2 days later.

Picked this restaurant randomly while strolling along and what a great pick. My husband had the Lamb Rump with duck fat potato’s, I had the Roast Pumpkin Salad with a side of veggies. Service was amazing and the food was amazing.
