We visited on a Monday evening so maybe quieter than other nights. The restaurant included the hotel breakfast area so a large room which felt cold and no atmosphere. Had the room been busy I’m sure a better feel.Average waitress service but good sense of humour .Food we all had the specials of the day $34 strip steak quite thick and cooked perfect medium rare, just lacking in peppercorn sauce.Wife and uncle had $26 rack of lamb with mint jus. Cooked nice and pink spot on.Auntie had pork 3 ways very happy with meal just needed some sauce.All in all good evening score based on the food. Well done chefs more sauce :))
Had breakfast three days there due to convenience. Disappointed food. Soggy hash brown. No enuf variety.
Great varied menu, tasted and cooked well by chefs. Well looked after by the waiters and bar staff the day we were there. Catered for large and small groups or individuals. Nice and cosy warm atmosphere.
Went on a Saturday night and was told was 2 for 1 on mains which was a pleasant surprise. Ordered veggie pasta, rib eye and pork belly. Pasta was fine not unpleasant but not amazing, steak cooked well and the pork belly also. Good service and 87 for meals and 3 pints.
Great service good menu options. The breads were great. Got lamb shanks for the main. These were good but not the best ever.The location is nice the back ground music was perfect. The fire was going it was a nice ambience.
If there’s a chance to dine out and save some money I’m all for it, so, armed with a couple of treat me vouchers we booked in for dinner albeit by default. It’s a family friendly, casual space to chill out over wine. The staff were very friendly, and attentive. I always think that dining with vouchers equates to less customer service but this was not the case. Bistro 169 doubles as the hotel restaurant so there were tables of families and kids which just added to the warmth of the place. The deep maroon decor and lighting adds to it aswell. We both had the eye fillet steak med rare, it was moorish. My husband is a carnivore and said it was one of the best he’s had in a while and he’s a fussy meat eater, so that says something. We ordered a side of vegetables to go with the meal. The portion is filling but you’ll need some greens to go with it. As far as pudding goes we ordered the chocolatismo and homemade baked cheesecake and shared it between is. Dangerously decadent. Good service. Good food. Make sure to go at 5.30 or 6 to nab a parking space near the Abel Tasman hotel.
