Fantastic meal and drinks. Great happy hour prices. The Fish of the Day (gurnard) was wonderful as were the rest of our dishes. Remember to order bread to mop up the sauces (especially scallops). Great service as always, thank you to front & back of house teams for an awesome evening. Cheers.
Delicious food, amazing drinks and very friendly service with spectacular view of the lake.
We visited Momentos by the Lake three times during our stay — brunch, breakfast, and dinner — and each experience was exceptional. The setting is stunning, right by the lake, with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Dinner was a standout: garlic prawns, garlic scallops, and the most amazing prawn linguine — each dish was packed with flavour and beautifully cooked. The food was consistently superb and absolutely delicious. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. You really felt looked after. This place became a firm favourite for us. Highly recommend!
On arrival we were greeted by the owner who offered us an explanation of the food offered and how best to order and share. The food was a real treat we enjoyed every dish… then also had desserts.I will definitely go again when we are in Queenstown again

Delicious, exceptional service and fun!
I am so pleased we chose this restaurant for the first time. They food style and taste (Tapas etc) was like a party on the palate. We took our visiting adult Spanish nieces with us and they selected dishes from the menu for us. They were impressed and said it was a 'taste of home'! Wonderful advice and service from knowledgeable staff. Many thanks for a lovely evening
