We visited from Sydney to celebrate our anniversary in Queenstown. Such a vibe! We chose the chef’s menu (NZD 120 per person). Each dish came in small portions but was packed with flavour, and by the end we were perfectly full. The wine pairing was also excellent, with a great selection of local wines that complemented the food beautifully. Jacob was our waiter for the night. He was very professional and friendly, with great recommendations throughout the evening. The lamb was the absolute highlight, so tender and juicy, and the Italian pappardelle with mushrooms was sooo good. Great food, great service, and an unforgettable night overall. One of the best food and wine experiences I've ever had. The 6 course tasting menu and wine pairings was a 3 hour flavor experience that I'd never try otherwise, and everything was incredible. Loved that basically everything was also able to be locally sourced and was delicious. It wasn't that busy when we went, but seems like the restaurant is relatively new. Would definitely recommend reservations if you have an evening in Queenstown to enjoy. Service and food were 10/10. I forgot to review so this is a belated one! I went for my birthday in August on a First Table, and was blown away. The intimate atmosphere was a beautiful place to watch the sun go down and the wine list was absolutely incredible!! We did the chef’s menu, and were so delighted by the range of flavours. They found out it was my birthday, and brought me a special bday dessert at the end. The most memorable of the experience, however, was the service. Every server was incredibly friendly and also exceptionally knowledgeable. We were mainly served by the wonderful Jacob who was so very kind and charismatic, and who really took our experience to the next level. We are so grateful to him and think he deserves all the kindness (and money lol) in the world! It was such a romantic, intimate, special and unique experience shared with my partner. Thank you Toast & Oak!

First time in New Zealand and this is the fist restaurant we tried. I booked for my husband’s birthday and this is the best decision I have made! The food is fantastic and the service is awesome! Will definitely recommend to friends who are visiting Queenstown! Will definitely visit again if I come to Queenstown again!
