Quite a small place with limited seating that’s isn’t very flexible on their menu options. If you can over come all that not a bad place to eat some Japanese food
Had the salmon rice bowl for lunch that came with a Miso soup starter. Was awesome. Thanks would highly recommend this place (I found it by trip advisor and was not disappointed)
The food here was great! I ordered the gyudon and it was super tender. Some things they could improve is making is adding more flavour. The portions are also quite small so don't be surprised. Overall, would definetely recommend!
This small establishment is tucked in a secluded corner and could be easily missed but despite that they seem to be busy early into service. Food we had were all absolutely delicious. Definitely recommended if craving for Japanese in Queenstown.
AMAZING! We had the scallops with wasabi mayo, the seared rib eye, the gyoza and the tonkatsu. The scallops were the best I have ever had and the wasabi mayo was top notch! This was closely followed by the rib eye. All around a fantastic meal. Will definately visit again when in Queenstown

Nice little place and friendly staff. Food was really nice must try dumplings , ramen and steak .... small servings but the price was worth it cos it was really delicious . Plating and garnish were great .
Our tour guide recomended us this place and we never thought it could be that good. Everything we ordered was very delicious. We sat on the bar, if you want a table better to make a reservation. We paid 25 NZD each.
One of the best japanese cuisine in new zealand !! I ordered gyu tataki with udon and salmon aburi
It was really good !!!! And the sake was very soft and easy to drink
We tried Tanoshi’s trust the chef, which I thought was a good variety and value for money. The only thing is it doesn’t include desserts. They also have some refreshing Japanese beer on tap. I like that they accept walk-ins. We sat outside at night in August and they have good heating.
The food was SO good! We had a table of five and booked the ‘Trust the Chef’ and it was a great selection and very good value. Two of us has the sake taster and it was taaaasty. The only reason I left 4 for atmosphere was cause there was some rude loud drunk people near us but that’s not really the restaurants fault. Really loved it and kind staff ☺️😍
Good Ramen spot in Queenstown especially on a cold, rainy day. Service was fast and friendly. Very customer oriented staff too. They patiently explain how to order for first timers, and keep smiling even if they're really busy as customers keep coming!
A friendly welcome as you enter the door as is the traditional Japanese way. Professional and friendly staff top off quality food. Highly recommended and will be back again when in Queenstown.
Its my second time dining at Tanoshi. Staff were very friendly. We were lucky to get discount on our sake and the guy who served us let us try the sake before ordering it. Food was amazingly yum! Its a bit pricy but worth it i’ll say. Definitely coming back.
Visiting Queenstown from Sydney, this small japanese restaurant was a wonderful first meal in town! Had "trust the chef" had all the best dishes of the restaurant at great value, will definitely visit again when we are back in town.
Excellent Japanese food in the heart of Queenstown. We ordered the "trust the chef" menu and the food was just fantastic. From the ribeye tataki to the grilled scallops with wasabi mayo, everything was fresh and well seasoned. The okonomiyaki and pork gyozas are also worth mentioning as extras to order. Take note these are tapas sized servings, so even with the tasting menu, it's a good idea to order some extra dishes.
Trust the ‘Trust the Chef’ option, you won’t go wrong. Best beef tataki we’ve ever had, and the chicken tempura was incredible. The scallops, amazing!
I had to run straight back to my hotel to write them an excellent review. The food was outstanding. Highly recommend the chefs choice menu. Such a good value. Best meal I’ve had in Queenstown.
Really nice experience! Awesome food, excellent service, not shy to say that it was our best dinner experience in New Zealand. I would definitely recommend the chef's choice, and it renewed my love for sake!
