Treehouse
★ 4.9 · 241 reviews Wanaka Opened 2024
The wine bar locals kept quiet about
Chefs Al Wilson and Ricardo Le Roux keep every sharing plate at or under twenty dollars. Paua dumplings, venison and pork belly croquettes, kingfish ceviche with nori crackers, high-country lamb skewers all move fast off the pass.
Sommelier Oscar Goy built a drinks list with old-world and new-world names at fair prices. Trust the chef runs $49 a head, wine pairing $30. Book now that the secret is out.

Treehouse is situated a bit out of the centre, but boy were we surprised. The food was tasty, balanced and well paired. The star of the show was the high country lamb rack - juicy, tender, perfectly cooked, and paired with a smoky sauce and sundried tomato relish, was absolutely divine. The market fish was blue cod, which was also excellently paired with a creamy sauce. Us group of 5 ordered all the sharing plates on the menu, and almost finished it without leaving anymore room for dessert. The service was top notch. Each dish explained meticulously and a good selection of wine. Definitely would come again!

We had an amazing dinner at Wānaka Treehouse today. From the moment we walked in, the service was top-notch. The manager I guess his name is Oscar, he was super welcoming and made sure everything ran smoothly without being overbearing. The menu is clearly really well thought out, with some unique twists you don't see everywhere else. The absolute highlight for us was the paua croquettes. I wasn't sure what to expect, but they were a total surprise—perfectly crispy and packed with flavor. We finished with dessert, which was honestly surprisingly good. It was super innovative and used some really interesting textures that we hadn't tried before. It’s easily one of the best meals we’ve had in Wānaka. If you’re in town, definitely give this spot a go! For sure a must place to visit when you are in wanaka and hint please remmeber to book as the place can fill up fast
