SODA Queenstown Reviews
Fab place!
Booked this for one evening,after a local recommendation. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Great menu selection,small or large plates available. The fire bread was lush,and the cod and the cheese croquettes. Good wine selection too.
Unhappy
Very cold inside, house music way too loud, waiters didn’t seem to know who was looking after what table, felt rushed to order, would be better just to have the one waiter looking after the table as a top end dining experience should be. We ordered the potatoes first, but they came out last. Ceviche felt way too cold like it had just come out of a freezer (same with butternut squash salad). The chorizo and drinks were pretty good. We ordered the paella which was an absolute disappointment, it tasted terrible, like off and old, it said octopus on the menu but didn’t contain any, the seafood seemed to be from the supermarket freezer, We talked to the manager and appreciated how she listened to our concerns and took $24 off the bill and offered a free drink without us asking. I wouldn’t recommend this place, overpriced, disappointing, overrated.
Wonderful meal
We had a beautiful meal at Soda. The restaurant is wonderful with great views down the lake. The food was beautiful and very well presented. We had the paella which was beautiful. The staff were very good.
Best spot in Queenstown
Wow! Incredible service and amazing views. Tapas plates are incredible! The staff made sure we had a lovely experience.
You must try the wagyu NY strip
A lovely evening with great food, let down slightly by a pretty average supermarket dessert and house music that just seemed to get louder and louder. Exceptional service from our new friend from Birmingham
Average service. Great food
Beautiful food. Average service. When you are paying top dollar for food & wine you expect top service. Unfortunately we did not get that. The food was excellent, the service was not
Casual Fine Dinning
Soda is fine dinning but without the more formal dress code and stiffness which might be associated with such a restaurant. Many people were there for the cocktails and snacks or deserts as oppossed to a full meal but were welcomed none the less. The staff are attentive and very friendly and went about the business very efficiently. The food was fantastic and we left very satisfied. Great place.
Tey the steak
Tapas style restaurant overlooking the lake. The steak was so good that we wee disappointed that we didn't have time to go back. The balcony overlooking the street was fine for people watching as well. They use the tag team approach to service so service was great
Merci Oliver
We came for dinner to celebrate my friends birthday. I have to say, every thing was amazing and Oliver made the experience even better. Thank you to him to make my friend night super special!
Excellent food and service
We had a special birthday dinner here and the food and service (thanks York) was five star! We had asked for a table by the lake and had Table 1 which had a beautiful view. The whole night was relaxed and enjoyable.
Connect with users posting reservations for SODA Queenstown
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with SODA Queenstown. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to SODA Queenstown at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the SODA Queenstown page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at SODA Queenstown to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at SODA Queenstown!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
