Reviews of Captains Steak and Seafood Restaurant

J.

Took my wife for her birthday. Not disappointed at all. We were walk ins on a busy Friday night. Staff were well presented, friendly, helpful. This is the best seafood platter we have ever had. Would highly recommend to any seafood lovers.

M.

Yummy food, nice ambiance, and friendly staff. Fish of the day is always amazing.

R. S.

This was supposed to be brekkie after landing in Queenstown buuuut I decided to opt for more of a lunch vibe. It's quite nice sitting outside under the rays. Unfortunately, the tables upstairs weren't accessible on this day. I ordered the calamari and it was fine. Love a chunky chip or are they called steak chips... Good location and opening hours.

K. W.

Absolutely wonderful dining !!! Amazing staff, food and cocktails 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻

K. B.

The food was fantastic. Service was great

B. G.

As a Queenstown local, easily the best seafood I've had in queenstown. Had an array of food including mussels, bluff oysters, seafood linguine, calamari all absolutely delicious!

S. M. K.

My husband and I have been here three times in one week because we couldn’t get enough! First time we had crayfish and seafood chowder which are our favourites from this place. Then linguine which were also delicious. Lastly we had the calamari and the lamb rack. The oysters were amazing too. But nothing beats the seafood chowder! Great portion sizes too.

J. N.

Came for breakfast in the sun, we had the big breakfast x2. Exactly what I had hoped for, large and simple. Hit the spot perfectly. Service was fast, as were the meals and the coffee. Staff were clean professional and fast to recognise our needs. Passports were scanned prior to service

A. R.

Enjoyed the half Lobster with Surf n Turf, cooked to perfection

June2021: I had a hard time rating.. Oysters as entree OMGOSH, with the vinaigrette. MAIN.. Fish of the day,.. $30.ssh Now, the meal was actually nice Fish fresh and not over cooked Vegies fresh & not overcooked. Roast potatoes 👎🏼 were meeeh. Seemed to have been sitting in a hot plate so yes to roasted, but no too fresh. Another 👎🏼 was this dish was in a bowl, so excess water? juice from the veggies sat in the bottom of the bowl, so the potatoes became Soggy. So here's my thing, for the price, I feel a Plate re bowl 2 bits of fish fillets appropriate👍🏼, as there was good veg AND that meal didn't need roast potato, but sitting on a smash of mash would be devine. 😍. Customer service was A+ I did have a really nice evening Thanks

We are 4 people have a late dinner here. If you are seafood lover can order the share plate, my son get a Main seafood chowder. Very full.

C. S.

Best Rib Eye steak by far, tasty n juicy, roasted potatoes dipped n garlic n herb sauce, kids loved their steak meals, wife loved her fish of the day with gnocchi and capers n lemon cream sauce! Friendly and welcoming. Well done.

J. T.

Ordered the big seafood platter for 2 and the lamb ribs. The lamb was the best I have ever had, it fell off the bone and the sauce made it even better, I was tempted to order another. The big seafood platter was good it was very fresh but nothing special. I'd come here again for the lamb and something new.

J.

Good restaurant. Thinking of order a plate of oysters but oysters limited stock due to bad weather. Had their seafood plater $158 for 2. Generally good and big portion for 2 males. Garlic bread and smoked salmon is good. Oysters are fresh but the size a bit small. Crayfish and the fish of the day are fresh as well. Calamari just too much and slightly oily.

M. C.

Blown away! Came back twice, amazing food and friendly staff! Cozy setup and they have great wine as well. A must try in Queenstown. Do make reservation for weekends!

P. L.

Captain's another seafood dinner.... Fresh oyster from the local sea. So fresh and so juicy and so tender. Scallop with prosciutto cooked just right. The seafood chowder that is loaded with tons of seafood. Lamb rack that is souvide and then roasted to medium rare. NZ lamb is indeed soooo tender. And lastly our first try in Elephant fish, a firm fish with a mild taste. . Food : 5/5 Service : 4/5 Price : $$$$ Place : 4/5

C. B.

Stopped off for dinner after a whole day of activities, so were really hungry. Good menue choices and friendly staff, the venue was very busy so were not able to get an outside seat. We had fish of the day and pan seared salmon. Both excellent and very tasty.

J.

Amazing and consistently top notch over many visits over the years. Best seafood chowder in the country by a mile

A. T.

A must for people who are looking for exquisite seafood. We had the chowder and fish of the day(monkfish) and it was delicious. Worth the wait and price! The staff is truly passionate.

J. R.

Compliments all round - this is one of our favourite restaurants to go to whenever we are in Queenstown. The food, you can’t fault and the service is excellent!

C. T.

Awesome place for dinner! Appreciate the surprise my friends and the staff made! Great seafood and fresh oyster! Big sharing plates!

c. S.

Went for lunch while walking around town. I had mussels curry and my friend had seafood chowder. Both are delicious beyond our expectation. Seafood chowder is quite rich in flavour and have lots of mixed seafood. The mussels are fresh and not overcooked. The bread on side is a nice touch so we can soak up all the juicy gravy.

H.

This place has the best seafood chowder! So creamy and tasty. The oysters are also very fresh. Highly recommended if you’re traveling in Queenstown.

M. S.

We were a big group of 12. They found a suitable place for us. Friendly staff, helpful and smiling. I got the fish of the day and the plate was amazing. The only downside is the price. A bit expensive but welcome to Queenstown. If you are visiting Queenstown, then be prepared to pay more than you would in the rest of NZ.

A.

Enjoyed the half Lobster with Surf n Turf, cooked to perfection

B. T.

The salmon was delicious, service was great, and the price was reasonable for the location and quality. My buddy and I both had a salmon and shared a bottle of Merlot - no complaints! This places does tend to get busy to you may have a short wait, especially for some outdoor seating.

L. B.

Friendly staff, fresh food, good selection of wine, just a litter expensive. The lamb is the star of the entire cuisine, make sure to give it a try! Seafood platter and scallops are rather interesting as well. Not so much the salmon or the beef. Fish of the day may also be interesting, but the gratinated patatoes are just wow

P. J. F.

Good steak and seafood restaurant at Queenstown prices. We ordered the market fish and whitebait which were well-cooked and tasty. Portions are generous making the prices justifiable. Service is friendly and informative. Recommend making a booking during busier times of year.

A. P.

Seafood restaurant in Queenstown. Overall, a solid 4 stars. Details by dish below - Crayfish – juicy tender meat – fresh and not chewy at all. A bit pricey - Monkfish (Fish of the day) – ok – have had better monkfish elsewhere - Salmon – well-cooked and served with quinoa which provides texture / sth interesting to the dish - Lamb chop – ok – have had better ones elsewhere - Side dishes – would recommend the beetroot salad – very refreshing and provides a good contrast to the seafood dishes - Decent wine selection

L.

Nice restaurant,a food is good enough , very friendly stuff

J.

Omg amazing food. Definitely need to try if your around. Went there 3 days in a row and got the house burger for lunch.

W.

Read the reviews and decided to pop by for dinner today. Must say the restaurant did not disappoint. Had pan-seared salmon that was cooked to perfection. The side of mash and beetroot were delicious as well. Well done captain!

i.

Eggs Bene was amazing!! Couldn't fault it at all. Cozy place, super friendly staff. Good coffee.

A. M.

Prompt service and really nice to get real food for breakfast, like bbq ribs, or burgers

T. G.

Staff were very nice especially the skinny euro guy with curly-ish hair and glasses (and accent not sure maybe french) he was a very good host. (5 stars for service) The food was nice we had the seafood platter and lamb rack the seafood platter is massive and has a taste of everything you could want :) lamb rack was avg could have done with a bit more seasoning and the carrots were undercooked

C. C.

Seafood platter is ok, it looks bigger but it’s all salad under the bread. Love chowder here. Waitress are lovely.

J. M.

Excellent..! Ellie is awesome and so is the rest of the staff. The ambience of the restaurant is amazing and the seafood platter and chowder is to die for

R. R.

Great find, delicious food! I had the salmon with its recommended paired wine and was very happy with the pairing. I like to try new and this was the perfect excuse. Had a little lack in service which dipped it from a 5 star for me, but would still reccomend to go and try out the dishes.

T. K.

Don't normally buy waffles but I took a gamble this time and they were delicious!! We also ordered the big breakfast and that was delicious Also.

T. C.

Perfect food and service, came twice for breakfast and dinner. must try their lamb and salmon! definitely come back!

R. A.

We tried twice this week, the first time the food was sooo good 😌, but the second time we were disappointed with the dishes !

T. T.

Would highly suggest this venue for any part of the day. Absolutely no complains on pricing, service, quality of the meals.

N.

Lovely service by each lady that served us. The ambience was nice with music at a volume that wasn't too loud. Nice decor and thanks for placing us next to the fire place. The food was great and reasonably priced. Good portion size too. We would be back if we stayed locally. Oh well maybe next trip.

J.

Great food and atmosphere. Seafood platter amazing.

C.

Only stopped for a drink, but very friendly service and they have happy hour.

F.

Rack of lamb was splendid and deserving of its best in NZ rating. The rest were pretty good.

S.

Lovely restaurant, the food was perfect The Garlic mussels in a white wine sauce were something to remember

n.

I liked my big breakfast mum liked her omelet and the beer was, as always, great the staff seemed friendly, helpful and welcoming.

J. E.

Captains was very good. Great menu selections and they were very capable of managing our speciality diets (gluten free and pescetarian). Wine list was good. Staff were attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. It has a more Olde world vibe than some of the other establishments in town which I enjoyed for a change.

S.

I love their breakfast. Staffs are friendly. Everytime I come in Queenstown, I visit this restaurant for breakfast.

C.

Fantastic service and great homemade food. Will definitely be back for breakfast.

R.

Delicious food tonight. Had the calamari for entree and it tasted delicious and seasoned well. Also had the pork ribs for main which was a decent amount the the pork was lovely and moist . Just a little tad salty... mind you, its just my preference. The service was excellent though!!!!!

L. O.

We walked into the restaurant and were seated under a speaker with music too loud for dinner conversation! But when asked our waiter said of course! he would turn it down. Thank you Patrick 😊 And what a spectacular meal! Gluten free bread, a mushroom risotto, topped off with an affogatto. Perfect!

C.

Great brunch, I would recommend

S. F.

We split the seafood platter which was quite good with a good variety. We didn't leave hungry, but it definitely was not a lot of food for two people and on the pricey side.

C.

Excellent food, average staff. Once young lady with a resting b.face and the other one keep talking to me and playing with her hair above my food while I'm trying to eat my dinner. But the food was amazing, high-five for the chef 👌

K.

Probably the best coffee in QT, always an amazing customer service

V. I.

Absolutely like this place. Amazing food and service, had been there twice with the family and both times had amazing experience.

T.

Wonderful place to have a meal, inviting and cosy atmosphere. We had lunch and diner there and both times were really happy with the food and service. We will definitely go back and recommend.

A. C.

Delicious food, excellent service and really good value for money.

J.

Bit pricey but the food was very nice

J.

The food was excellent, really good. The customer service was also great, we were looked after from when we arrived up until we paid our bill. The staff would also keep on checking how we are and if we need anything.

M. H.

We were there over a week ago and we are still raving about the meal we had. The customer service was great but the food was AMAZING! I had the Crayfish with veges and potatoes and my partner ordered the Surf n Turf, it was his first time trying crayfish and he loved it. His steak was perfect and the gravy was something we had never tasted before and wow it was beautiful (can we be cheeky and ask for the recipe 😉). Can’t wait to visit Queenstown again to come back for another meal.

C.

Seafood chowder and eggs benedict tasted fantastic great hostess

B. D.

After whole day activities we are so enjoy the food! The staff are so sweet and provide quality services. Many thanks!

D. W.

We stumbled across this restaurant by chance wondering the streets cold and hungry. It was warm inside so we stopped for a feed. The seafood chowder and blue cod were delicious. The kids meals of fish and chips was small with maybe 12 hot chips and a small piece of fish with a wee salad. -not enough to feed 2 hungry boys - and overpriced at $17.50. But it's queenstown so I guess that's the norm? We filled our bellys and warmed up though.

I.

Yummy food, fantastic service, great furnishing.

G.

Food was delicious and we chose the lamb rack special. Food was delicious but I couldn't swop the potatos for a few extra veggies as I'm on a low carb diet. No checking by waitress just a firm NO. So that kinda soured the great meal.

D.

One of the best restaurant’s Ive visited so far

C.

It was a nice and enjoyable lunch. We enjoyed much.

D.

Great meal with a very relaxing atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit for couples looking for a relaxing chilled out experience with great service and top quality food at a reasonable price. Will be recommending to family and friends when they visit Queenstown.

R.

Oh man, the seafood chowder on a cold Winter's day, do yourself the favour: have a warm tummy the rest of the afternoon/evening. Absolutely superb

S. C.

Came here for my dads 50th last night, staff were accomodating to our group and knowledgeable about the menu and the food they’re serving. Food was great, oysters were fresh, squid was cooked well. A really nice place for dinner if you’re looking for somewhere quite where you can hear each other, enjoy a well cooked quality meal. It’s also a great spot if you have elderly people in your group, quite, comfortable and warm.

R.

Went here for dinner for my bday and the atmosphere was great, nice, cosy and warm inside and friendly staff, great service. We enjoyed our meals, I had fish of the day and it was so good! Will definitely come back next time we're in Queenstown!

I.

okay food, taste is good but very overpriced. not reccomended

E.

Loved both nights dining. Had the Captains Seafood platter on second night.. wow. The service was awesome cant remember his name think it was 'Res' and also the short blond girl. Loved the ambience and options. Highly recommended

C.

I would eat here again. I had a problem with my meal being cold - this was attended to efficiently and pleasantly by the staff. Quite quickly I had a fresh hot meal - you can't ask for a better outcome than that. A lovely evening at their outdoor tables

R.

Very friendly staff. Had crusted lamb rack. Was succulent and melted in my mouth. Good location and great ambience.

P.

Nice food and atmosphere. Impressed with the tame sparrows that at chips out of my hand.

R.

Had the calamari and the Lamb rack, only criticism is that I will never eat a better lamb dish again. Absolutely cooked to perfection with amazing flavours.

C.

Lovely meal, staff friendly and cheerful. Highly recommended

B.

Had a great breakfast very friendly staff

S. M. T.

Had our first meal in Queenstown here and it was easily the best. My venison was juicy and cooked to perfection while my friend's monkfish came with mussels that were the freshest and sweetest we have tasted. We walked in without a reservation but they kindly seated us immediately. Highly recommend a visit!

H.

Had breakfast here with a large family prices were really good staff were really friendly! And food was all round great.

M.

Great meal tonight. Ribeye and eye fillet superb. Venison great meal. Lovely wines and pudding a real winner(apple pie)

J.

Awesome crew, awesome food, awesome in every details

C. W.

Great service and good value for the quality lamb rack and seafood!

C. C.

Food is fresh but not kind of what I like.

L.

Fish and chips were great. Service was prompt and friendly. Would recommend coming here for the seafood chowder.

F.

Great omelet and oysters. Fresh and local. Thanks to google contributors. :)

C.

Captains is so inviting! The food is amazing and it's very reasonably priced. The staff are so beautiful! They explain the menu so well and even ask about your day and are genuinely interested. Captains is our go to restaurant when we're in Queenstown. If I could give them more stars I would!!

M. F.

Big portions however that didn't compromise the quality. The international staff were friendly and helpful. If your hungry but not starving maybe share a starter and a main course with sides. Wine recommendations on the menu were also very good.

S.

Amazing mussels, awesome chowder. Come here if you want fresh, local produce done well!

F.

Lovely service and great food. Just prepare to spend a bit more than the average restaurant. Give or take about $50 per person. Probably the best seafood chowder I've had in my life.

L. M.

Yum! Absolutely loved breakfast here. Bacon cooked perfect, scrambled eggs were buttery and delicious, quality bread and the tomato relish stuff on the side - so tasty. And all staff friendly!

L.

Fantastic food! We were very impressed and thought it was one of the better meals we had in Queenstown. Service was really good too! Definitely recommend!

M.

Went here for breakfast. Had the vegetarian blast and it was beautiful. All perfectly cooked and flavourful. Everyone else's meals looked lovely. Beautiful indoor and outdoor seating options. Lovely staff, very talented Batista

s.

Very friendly staff, seafood chowder is delicious.

J. T.

The first thing when I saw the menu was how pricey this place was. I only realized later as I walked around that almost everywhere here in Queenstown is pricey, and this wasn't the most expensive. I really loved the rack of lamb, really tender, easy to bite, though not quite fall-off-the-bone. I thought the sides were expensive too, at $9 and $12 for the premium sides like truffle fries. Until my order came, and they were large. I couldn't finish the 2 that I ordered, delicious as they were.

P.

Mains run from 35-40. Seafood like the Crayfish is market price and can reach up to 80. If you're two people, don't expect to get away for less than 110 dollars. I'd say the food is nothing amazing for the price. Service was excellent but honestly that's par for the course in New Zealand.

E. T.

Service and staff were great, but food was disappointing : a) Oysters were bland and tasteless - similar to other comments; b) Steak was over-done. The meat wasn't prime anyway. Compared to other restaurants (e.g. Finz), I'm afraid I cannot say this one is value-for-money.

G.

I like the Captains Seafood Platter. Yummy

J.

Lovely stuff and very helpful eg for the choice of the wine. The place inside was to cold as the door was permanently opened. We had the mixed seafood platter which was ok but not more. The oysters where dried out as if they were opened hours ago. The fish was fired too long and therefore a bit dry and so on.

T.

High quality seafood! We tried the shrimp salad, fresh oyster and the crayfish dish on the menu and they were all tasty. However there is no Wifi in this restaurant, which makes it less convenient for tourists than at other restaurants in Queenstown Mall.

D.

Amazing food and staff. Could not fault the experience and really recommend Captains!! We will be back!

J.

Really good salt and pepper squid, popular place and a really nice atmosphere

B.

My partner and I gave Captains a go after seeing the many great reviews and it certainly did not disappoint. We visited twice over a period of one week and tried the following; - Captains reef & beef - Fish & Chips - Pasta of the day - Fish of the day - Seafood Chowder Each dish were outstanding in their own right, particularly the reef & beef and seafood chowder which contained great combinations of flavour and cooked to perfection. Service was exceptional and we will return without question the next time we visit the beautiful resort town of Queenstown.

J.

Great welcoming staff and cosy atmosphere

A.

Warm and friendly atmosphere, good selection of tap beers ,wines. Great place for breakfast too.

C.

You have to come to this restaurant, our best food experience in Queenstown! We ordered signature lamb rack, fried whitebait, fish of the day, cheesecake and a glass of white wine. Everything was beyond expectation! 15% surcharge on public holidays which was a bit disappointing. Total was $158

R.

The staff was friendly, and the environment was cozy. I ordered the seafood platter and a bottle of sparking water, costed me $170 in total. No complaints for the food and services at all. The price is quite high, but can’t complaint, it’s Qtown after all.

s.

We are currently in Queenstown NZ now. We have been going to Captains since 2005. Never ever had a below average meal, drink, or good day/night there. Absolutely beatiful food and hosts. Current host there is Kelly from Cork Ireland assisted by Jen from Scotland and awesome staff. Beautiful people with awesome sense of humour. Cannot recommend this place enough. Sue Steve John Gail.

D.

Fresh oysters very delicious. We tried FOD pork and salmon all meals were cooked perfectly. Will definitely be back. Wonderful experience great service.

S.

Very nice place. Stopped there for a cooked breakfast during morning walk. Very pleasant and excellent service. If I would have my say I would change the coffee brand.

C.

Great food, had breakfast and dinner. Worth a look. Small and cosy. In the main street.

S.

Went with a friend on our last night in Queenstown. Food was very delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the restaurant was clean and well cared for.

T.

The seafood platter was absolutely amazing and can fill three hungry people. The Swedish chocolate cake was marvelous and was a calm relaxing environment with nice staff

S.

Was absolutely great! Great waiters! Great food! Crayfish,salad, and chips were awesome. Defiantly deserve 5 star rating :)

C.

Went here during my honeymoon. The atmosphere was quite cozy and lovely. Great place for a bottle of wine and lamb ribs. Probably will visit again. Service was top notch. Worth a visit.

C.

Music choice can be more fitting for the environment, fries and garlic bread were nice, service was pretty good!

R.

Excellent food and service and if you want a decent tap beer pour ask for Mads (pronounced Mazz hes from denmark)...fulla knows his stuff 🍺😉👌🏾 Very friendly staff and really enjoyable experience 👍🏾

S.

Great place for breakfast, so good we went there twice.

L.

The service was good and the ambiance was nice. The food was average. I like the appetizers but I didn't enjoy the entree. This may be due to my own taste bud of not liking elephant fish. Overall a good experience but nothing spectacular.

C.

Extremely friendly staff. Great food and ambiance. The pork belly was cooked to perfection and the brownie with honeycomb and mint ice cream was amazing. Highly recommended.

A.

Fantastic, really great food. Exceptionally good menu.

S.

Perfect spot to sit and watch the world go by👍👍

G.

Best Guinness in town. Great staff who are always attentive. Crew room upstairs is also worth a look.

S.

Great atmosphere friendly staff. Seafood chowder is amazing! Mussel dish was superb. Will definitely make another visit. 😎

T.

Amazing food and staff! The captain's seafood platter was delicious, great portions and combinations of flavours. Highly recommend!

O.

Beautiful food and staff who are very friendly

S.

Great food. Great service

s. H.

It felt like a boiler room. Three food was ok but not great. The salmon was a bit under cooked. Garlic bread was really good though.

D. F.

Great food great service wine is also good central Pinot. But google as usual has got it wrong the address is 11 The Mall. American Islam’s are usually wrong for 95 percent of the planet and certainly in this case think of the billions google has defrauded businesses worldwide over the years while pocketing the advertising revenue no morals

O.

Love everything. The oysters were super tasty, seafood chowder was rich and yummy. The salmon was a bit undercooked tho.

m.

Good and service were amazing. Don't believe the reviews. We had very attentive service. Lamb and surf and turf were delish. Definitely recommend.

F.

Off the hook sea food meal platter extraordinary staff delightful venue and atmosphere beautiful....recommend highly ballarat road not far from Seattle lane My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this top rated restaurant here in Queens town

M.

Absolutely amazing food, from the garlic bread, the seafood, all the way through to the custom steaks. Well done Captains.

Z. L. (.

Ordered Eggs Benedict with Bacon and beef mushroom Pasta. They are very delicious. Eggs Benedict is especially tasty and good-looking. Highly recommend this dish if looking for a lunch.

V.

Hands down best meal I had in New Zealand the week I was there. Their lamb chops and bluff oysters is a meal I still think about a year + later. Hope to make it back some day.

C.

September 2017 was soo good captain restaurant was very good for the price, but last time we been there we didn't received. Beer was warm, asked to change and have same warm. food come wrong, the the worst part was, the restaurant was empty, so would have no reason to mistakes. but ok maybe better next time

K.

Nice menu with friendly service. Great catch of the day, although didn’t enjoy the seafood chowder. The pork belly was amazing.

B.

The lamb chops of the point will make up the taste.

I.

My husband and I ordered seafood plates and asked a staff to recommend suitable wine, and we were totally happy with that food. Also a staff was kind.

A.

Best apple tart dessert in NZ! Also makes a great Tom Collins and Cosmo cocktail.

L.

5 stars for our waitress Kelly Ryan...( later discovered ahe was the mng) another 5 because it starts to sprinkle and she was so worried about us and asked if we wanted to move inside...no worries (lol, love that)..the food was awesome, had the venison and ribeye....highly recommend...oh and irish brogue was wonderful !🤣😂😁
