Great service and view. I only popped in for a drink and snack. And it did not disappoint. Lovely view of the lake and food came quick. I like the atmosphere.
sirloin is so nice and medium very suit me taste^_^Lamb so full and very tender～waiter give us the window table～but so shine yesterday～then the waiter maybe not enough～pay my bill wait a five minutes～
Excellent restaurant and very friendly staff. Would recommend the fillet mignon rare and the scallop and king prawn entree. Nice atmosphere when you enter the restaurant and nice view if youre sitting near the window.
Rating doesn't do this place justice, the meal was outstanding. Always a risk getting a rare steak but they absolutely nailed it. Broccoli was the perfect side, natural oysters were fresh and the wine was delicious. Service was fantastic, lots of character from our waiter Will and food came out promptly. Would definitely visit again the next time we're in town from Melbourne.
Dined there with wife and two other couples tonight. We started the meal with a sweet potato soup which was excellent and well presented. Also the bread they served was toasted and very good. They served a salmon pate with a sweet sauce on the side which was excellent also. Two wives ordered the pasta with salmon meal. Two men ordered the steak with roasted potatoes meal. And one of the other wives and I had the white fish on a potato salad. Everyone enjoyed their main course. The dessert was a small slice of apple pie and it was the right ending to the meal. Service was very good considering the size of the overall group we were with. The Prime is definitely worth a try. An added bonus is their great view of the lake.

I'm a bit surprised at the rating on here for Prime. We dined here on the first night of our holiday in Queenstown (mainly drawn in because of the bluff oysters sign) but came in around 8:45pm for a late dinner. Our first choice, closed its kitchen at 8:30pm... which to me is crazy early for a dinner restaurant!?
We were greeted by a waitress as we entered the restaurant, and were directed to a seat right by the window with a view of the lake. She was very patient even though we took a little while to decide our drinks and food. I ended up ordering a mojito (which was very nice by the way) and we shared two dozen oysters between the four of us. They had a deal going for $25 for half a dozen oysters, $49 for a dozen. Not too sure whether this is cheap or expensive, but oysters are generally priced quite high, and we all wanted to try the famous Bluff oysters! These came out with our mains, and are not like normal slimy oysters! Bluff oysters were round in shape and a lot less slimy, though they tasted quite similar. Three of us were oyster lovers, and we enjoyed these very much.
My main was the 250gms surf'n'turf which was an eye fillet with king prawns. My steak was really good and I loved my rosemary roasties! I also tried a bit of their fish, which just fell apart in my mouth. It was delicious!
I had a very enjoyable time dining here! Good view, good food and good service.
An excellent experience. This was possibly the best Caesar salad (with chicken) I've had in years. Not the cheapest, but still.
Service was good and the views were fab. On a sunny day it's nice to sit outside by the lake, great people watching.
We dined on 22/10 and had a lovely evening. We were seated by the window and as it was our 1st wedding anniversary, the waitress who was delightful throughout, gave us a glass of champagne each, on the house which was a lovely surprise. My husband started with the prawns which were delicious and I had the soup (very tasty). We both had the Shepherds Pie (not your run of the mill type). It may sound boring but it was beautiful. I wish I had something different just to try an extra dish and compare, so next time, I'll go for a steak
Enjoyed this alot, nice views, good service and tender, tasty steak. We did pay extra for sides but that was marked on the menu, although one of the group ordered the salmon which came with potatoes and vegetables.
We were celebrating a birthday and had asked for a table with a nice view, which we got - right by the window looking out at the lake.
Food was nice, especially the filet mignon and side of mushrooms that I had. The chef put a candle in the birthday boy's dessert which was a yummy (apparently) chocolate pudding.
The staff were friendly and helpful and we'd go back again if possible.
We went around 5pm on a weekday and found that some of the menu was cheaper as it was considered an early dinner. Great tip for people on a budget.
We chose this wheelchair friendly place because of its great waterfront location, and it's not far from the botanical gardens. We sat outside with an umbrella over our table. Comfy seats.
Service was slow, but to be fair they were busy and we were not in a rush.
Our food arrived together, tho it seems as it might have been at the expense of a vegetarian burger as it was cold. Nevermind, it was reported to be quite edible and tasty - and it filled a gap
Nice place for dinner with a view of the lake. We ordered the Seafood Chowder as a starter, and the Flintstones Experience which is a meal for 2 - a beef rib eye carved with roasted potatoes, carrots, salad and 2 sauces of your choice. (We also added on portobello mushrooms as an extra). The meat was cooked ok, medium rare. Food was not amazing, but just as expected. The staff were very helpful and friendly though.
The waiters made a real effort and the food was nice. Not the best but definitely worth a visit. I had the eye fillet and it was delicious and tender and concidering the view very well priced. Prime will not disappoint
Great views over the lake.
Tasty lunchtime food at reasonable prices. We had the chowder and green lipped muscles. Both very tasty.
Service was excellent. Friendly and efficient.
Good food & beautiful view of lake front. But service is very average. More than half waitresses had no smile at all. Except the manager or a senior lady. Staff training definitely need to be improved.
The food is extraordinary, paired with a gorgeous view, its my personal favourite goto whenever I'm in Queenstown.
Last time we visited the staffs seemed very busy as they told us we needed to wait for 40mins for meals. They still offered drinks so we had nice chatting time with glasses of wines while waiting. The meals and wines were all great!
Really great food, I had the cauliflower steak which was quite a new experience. Prices aren't too bad for location and vibe of the place. Had a really nice seat right by the window which was also really nice!
Food was good and environment was pleasant, despite a mix up with the beer I’d ordered - just as well I know my IPA’s from my lagers lol. Not sure whether it was a genuine mix up or if they were trying it on.
Delicious food, great service and the view... stunning!
