Well-known online celebrity restaurant, Michelin restaurant-RATA~ It is Michelin, and it is very particular. The side dishes and sauces of each dish have their own flavor, which makes me who ate sweet barbecue yesterday shine. [Color] The intensity is just right, very much to my taste~ Introduce the dishes, non-alcoholic, a little sour, a little sea salt flavored drink, very appetizing. Appetizer, seafood mussels, clams?, super delicious, the sauce is also great, can be paired with crispy soft bread~ Chicken stewed mushroom parfait, delicious. The main course, the beef is the softest I have ever eaten here, not sweet, the sauce, the dishes are also good, but the barbecue yesterday hurt me. Fried fish, it is said to be a local fish, fried well, but there is no special taste. Dessert, the first time to eat hawthorn flavored ice cream, it feels very digestible, although it is not necessary (not too full), the cream is not greasy at all. The other one is cheese... I can't eat it, but the honey is delicious, and the walnuts are also good [cute] Because it is a lunch set, the price is not very expensive ~ happy (∩_∩)

The three course lunch was only $45 per person. The beef tartare, salmon and cheese rolls were all excellent! The main course of pork belly and blue cod was also very delicious. The dessert of chocolate, vanilla mousse and cheese was also delicious. We followed it up with cocktails and the service was very efficient and of course excellent! Definitely one of the best meals I have ever had!
A very nice restaurant with an elegant environment and great service. From salads, poached eggs, chicken wings, cod, M7 steak, vegetables, desserts and fruits, every dish tastes good. There are basically no minefields. The beef really melts in your mouth and the cod is slightly sweet.
I went there for my birthday. Although we paid $8 for takeout cake each, they still helped me arrange the dishes and write words on them. Beef Wellington is a big signature dish, but the beef was cooked medium rare, so I couldn't eat it at all. The beef didn't taste good enough, and the mushrooms made me feel sick. But the other dishes were very good. If you can't eat raw beef but want to eat it, try to order 7 rare. The portion is very large, and the others are relatively small.
We ordered Rata. The signature Beef Wellington by Michelin three-star chef Josh Emett is indeed the best. I don't have a big appetite so I ordered a small portion. The puff pastry is very skillful. It feels very crispy when cut, but the beef wrapped inside is still juicy, tender and pink, medium-rare. It is very satisfying to eat it in one bite. The Clam in the appetizer is extremely delicious and must be ordered.
As expected of a Michelin restaurant, you must make a reservation. We went there twice with a fluke mentality and didn't get to eat there. It's better to make a reservation. My husband praised the lamb chops he ordered. I don't eat lamb, so I can't verify it. I ate steak almost every day in New Zealand, so I ordered a cod. It was very tender and light without any fishy smell. It had a faint lemon fragrance, which suited my taste. The dessert after the meal was also amazing. I don't know what it was, like a honeycomb, which melted in my mouth. The ice cream next to it had different flavors and rich layers. I forgot to say that the oysters were very fresh and had the taste of sea water. The smoked salmon was very memorable, and even the bread before the meal was very special. Everything was delicious, but unfortunately my stomach was not big enough. Let's try something else next time! And the waiter was super handsome!
In a small alley, I followed Google map to find it for a long time. It is the best meal in Queenstown. You need to make a reservation in advance. The price per person is 150 New Zealand dollars. The lamb chops are very tender and delicious, without any smell. The beef is also good. I also ordered salmon, which is smoked and very tasty. Overall, it is quite good. It is worthy of being Gordon Ramsay's restaurant. No wonder the business is so good.
