WOW!
Outstaaaaaaaaanding meal, we were greeted with beautiful shots as aperitifs , the meals were spectacular, I had the salmon from the decisions menu, and it was incredible. They accommodated our fussy tastes and dietary/pregnancy requirements too!
Zach looked after us and he was fantastic, even preparing our dessert meringues at the table with a fantastic show of dry ice, amazing!
Fantastic options for non drinkers.
Consensus from our table of 6 was that it was the most memorable meal any of us have ever had. We will be back for sure and highly recommend to all.

We had the most wonderful meal ever – from the shot glass handed to us on arrival as our coats were taken to the last mouthful, everything was absolute perfection. We just loved it and will be back whenever we travel back to Christchurch – it is a very special place to enjoy fine dining together with clever matching of wines. Congratulations to Zach and Romain for making our evening such a memorable one.

I recently ate at Pescatore and had a wonderful meal. It has been a while since we dined so I cannot remember exactly what we had. I know we had the Evolution Menu which is a 9 course degustation diner with matching wines. For $195 per person it was outstanding value. The meal was spread out over a 3 hour period and was very well presented. I can highly recommend Pescatore. It is located in the George Hotel in Christchurch

Fine dining absolutely. Specializing in seafood, this is an excellent restaurant offering top quality service. Expensive as one would expect but certainly worth the money as a treat for those so inclined. My wife and I try to visit each year around our wedding anniversary. Divine food with absolutely intense flavors and service to match.
