Bistro Gentil
Careful attention to detail is evident in the French-style cooking at this bistro that sits high above Wanaka with lovely views over the town and out to the Southern Alps. A modern French menu incorporates stronger examples from Central Otago ingredients. There are classics like French onion soup and deliciously moist duck, and the dessert choices are given modern twists. Wine is taken seriously here with an excellent selection. Daytime sees the bistro used as the Maude Wines tasting room.
Pearl is the En Primeur Club membership app — saves, bookings, and concierge access live there. Same editors, same standards.
