New Year’s Eve Bookings Now Open! 🪩
Set along the mountain-lined waters of Lake Wānaka, Sofi draws inspiration from the timeless essence of the Mediterranean and its warm, welcoming hospitality.
Welcome to Sofi Wānaka
We open our doors as if welcoming you into our own home.
From lunch to late in Wānaka, our menus are thoughtfully crafted using locally sourced Otago produce. The atmosphere is alive with music, laughter, and the beauty of Lake Wānaka just right there.
Our Kitchen
After many years of travel, and with a slow lifestyle embraced in our hearts, Sofi is our culinary canvas. The kitchen team brings the timeless culture and vibrant grilled flavours from southern Spain, Morocco, Greece, Turkey to the sun-kissed coasts of France, with subtle hints of influence from other corners of the world.
With an evolving seasonal menu, our dishes are thoughtfully crafted to celebrate fresh, local produce, capturing the spirit of Mediterranean dining through the best of New Zealand’s ingredients.
Drinks & Wines
From crisp tap local beers to handcrafted cocktails, our drinks journey comes through the same Mediterranean inspirations as our food.
With Central Otago’s renowned wine production, we embrace the region’s strengths and offer a curated wine list featuring local selections such as Mount Edward, Rippon, and many more, as well as imported wines from wineries like Niepoort in Portugal.
