We were staying at Distinction Luxmore, and Bailiez, though not actually attached, is the hotel restaurant. We had dinner here both nights in Te Anau (partly because we had a free drinks voucher, and we were too tired to venture farther afield). Night one was roasted lamb shanks on a big yummy pile of mash. Night two we both had... More

Went for a simple and affordable meal but it ended up in a doctors visit at the motel plus an extra night of staying at the motel and rescheduling my Milford sound trip. Had a meat/bacon/egg hamburger and the same night this meal ended up in vomiting, diarrhea and fainting. Doctors conclusion: food poisioning. No fun when on holiday.. Obviously... More

Had a meal at Bailiez after a rather wet but very pleasant day out on a Doubtful Sound trip. Had looked for a place to eat the previous evening but somehow missed this gem. The greeting and service was excellent. We opted for a 'light meal' having seen the size of the full meals at other tables. We had the... More

Never before have I seen such bad service and had my evening ruined so badly. They made a major mistake and did not do much to correct it. They admited that it was all their fault but continued to speak rudley and aggressivley to us. We even had to ask them to stop shouting at us as they were making... More

We stayed in Te Anau for three nights. Unfortunately we didn't go to Bailez until our last night. This was a mistake as the food and staff here were great compared to the other places we tried. We had a beautiful lamb roast followed by a yummy chocolate brownie. Highly recommended. More

Had a visit here after a long day at Milford Sound and what a little gem it turned out to be. I ordered ribs - I got 16 - yes sixteen - of them and they were massive and full of meat. Underneath was a plate of fries which at the end were hardly touched. A nice bowl of lemon... More

We chose this restaurant because it was the only one with people in it on a Sunday night. We were seated, we ordered and the food soon came. And what a feed it was! John had the Lamb Shanks which looked more like 4 lamb legs - best looking shanks Ive ever seen, tasted great too. The kids menu was... More
