Restaurants in Queenstown

Amisfield is Queenstown's most-credentialed restaurant, ranking #99 on the World's 50 Best list in 2025 and scoring 91 points on La Liste 2026. Chef Vaughan Mabee's estate-anchored New Zealand fine dining is worth booking for a second visit as much as a first. Reserve months out — near-impossible to secure on short notice.

True South Dining Room is Queenstown's strongest choice for a wine-serious occasion dinner, with a Star Wine List White Star, 875 selections, and a 5,400-bottle cellar overseen by sommelier Nic Chavez. The farm-to-table cuisine under Chef Derek Piva sits at a $$ price point, keeping food spend reasonable while the $$$ wine list carries the ambition.
