Enjoy delicious New Zealand wines and Dux craft beers in the contemporary Dux Dine restaurant.
Reminiscent of the iconic Dux de Lux, Dux Dine builds on a 30-year-history of great atmosphere and excellent food, with a fresh twist that’ll excite and delight diners. Old favourites are on the menu alongside fresh new food ideas.
The highest quality seafood is caught locally in the cold waters off the coast of the South Island. Staples include groper, gurnard and terakihi; while scallops, oysters and whitebait are a must-eat during the season.
The vegetarian dishes reflect the very best seasonal ingredients, complimented by herbs from Dux’s very own organic herb garden. Cheeses and olives sourced from local, boutique producers add a unique flavour.
Wash it all down with a glass of Dux’s award winning brews. Try Dux Lager, Black Shag and Ginger Tom or explore a carefully curated list of New Zealand artisan wines. Sit inside the quirky heritage villa or enjoy a seat in the sun-drenched courtyard.

To celebrate our 36th wedding anniversary we were fortunate to chose this amazing restaurant. The food and service was of the highest standard and what a fabulous ambience. A surprise was the complimentary bubbly given to us. Dux Dine is highly recommended and a place to take either your partner or friends to celebrate. A big thank you.

Scott Mcdonnell - dined at Dux Dine on 30 August 2018
The staff were friendly & checked on us but were unobtrusive. The food was really delicious. We both had fish dishes for the main and were so committed to finishing them that we declined to share! I had one of the most lemony lemon tarts ever - a perfect end to the meal. I shall be booking back in again.

Yin Ching Tsang - dined at Dux Dine on 19 August 2018
Had a 'fish day' on Sunday night with my girlfriend, both us were satisfied by the considerate service and amazing fish dishes. The dessert was not inferior either. The surrounding is a kind of bonus, she likes it a lot.
Yuan Li - dined at Dux Dine on 19 August 2018
Dux Dine is always worth the money, time and effort. The food as usual was superb, especially the two types of fish we had. Vegetables looked as good as they tasted, the caramelised walnuts would do for nibbles, yum. Good wine of course and the staff were excellent, efficient and friendly.
Go back anytime.
