One of Wanaka’s best! I will eat here every time I’m in Wanaka. Slow food served fast is their slogan and it’s on point: it’s quality Mediterranean-inspired food served cafeteria-style. Eat it there, or take it to go. Service is super quick since you line up and just tell them what you want and they scoop it into a plate. Everything is prepared already. They have a nice variety of cold salads and hot veg sides. You can pick one protein and however many sides dictated by the size plate you got (small/medium/large).I know they serve breakfast too and it sounds really good but I haven’t been yet! Breakfast ends at 10am or something (check the website to be sure.)

Hearty meals fast. The food was really good and healthy, plenty of vegetarian options as well. You choose a plate size (small - 4 options, medium - 5, large - 6) and then show which food you would like. You will need to stay in a queue and the place gets quite busy, but it’s worth it. Good drink options including wine as well.

Assembly line food service that has really tasty options. You pick a plate size, then you get 1 meat item and up to 5 other sides for the large, 4 for the medium and 3 for the small. The beef cheeks were great. All the sides are wonderful. A vegetarian would be happy eating here.

Return visit and just as good as the first time. Great selection to choose from. Food is cooked well and is super tasty. Service is quick and friendly. The meat is cooked very well and super tender. The potatoes were a bit more dense. Open space and looks over the lake.

Brilliant place that gives epic potluck dinner vibes. Great options that not only taste great but are nutritious which can be hard to find while travelling. I’d highly recommend stopping in. We’ll definitely be back.Edit: we’ve been back! Had breakfast this time and it was again utterly delicious.

We didn’t get the mains here but the lemon meringue tart that we got here is a standout! It’s not overly sweet yet tangy with a good flavour. The restaurant staff is also friendly and the place had a nice ambience.

Our big group came here for brunch via a friend's recommendation. It turned out to be a great experience. The food was delicious! Definitely better than what I was expecting. The restaurant was clean and has a nice atmosphere. Staff was also very friendly. Would recommend if you're visiting Wanaka.

Delicious, nourishing and healthful food. Plus sparkling water on tap!! We came here four times during our stay in Wanaka and would definitely return again. The beef cheeks are phenomenal and the carrot falafel is great too. Thanks to the whole team -- love your work!

Fun spot for lunch that tastes good and feels healthy. The main dish is one where you select a meat option and then add a few raw and cooked veggie options. I loved what I got (beef with a side of eggplant, sweet potato, and broccoli salad). The flat white coffee was good as well. It was busy when we went and the place isn't big, so be prepared to share tables with other folks. Overall a nice place that I'd go to again.
