What's not to like here at Rosewood Matakauri - the environment is peaceful, serene and elegant - staff attentive and welcoming and food was amazing! Beautiful wine selection and the view of the Remarkable's is simply breathtaking. I will be back and particularly enjoyed the seaford chowder and donut kina ball 😁
From Service to food to Views everything exceptional!! An amazing experience. A must Visit while in Queenstown. Special thanks to operational manager Yagik for being so accommodating as always.
Celebrated my big birthday at this restaurant. The view is amazing. The staff was very helpful and the service great. The food was fantastic. Every dish was served with love.

Exceptional Food, Service and Views
★★★★★ We had a wonderful fine dining experience at Rosewood Matakauri with my wife. The food was excellent, beautifully presented and full of flavour. The service was top class — friendly, professional and attentive throughout the evening. What really made the experience special was the incredible view. Looking out over the lake and mountains was absolutely beautiful and created such a relaxing and memorable atmosphere. Overall, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely love to come back again. Highly recommended!
