Atticus Finch favours a classic fish‑and‑chips mix with clear, clean flavours. Sweets lean classic and not overly rich. Fish lands crisp with light batter and chips stay tidy. Sushi and hot dishes come out clean‑flavoured and precise. The team keeps things friendly and organised.
What started as a promising, positive experience turned sour. Appetizers were fabulous. Huge upset with the entree. Server service was 0/10, 3 stars for the manager Leslie who was receptive to my concerns. I would have given a solid 5 throughout without the hiccup.
Absolutely delicious food! We went yesterday and ordered the pork belly, easily the best pork belly I’ve ever had (perfectly rendered)! Topped off with the brownie cookie and it’s delicious salted caramel sauce. We wanted to taste everything on the menu so we came back again tonight and picked different dishes. Kind and polite staff too!
I got the lamb salad and my man had the chicken wings. He got a cider and I had the tokyo tom cocktail. We travelled from Hamilton so it was really good quality food, and we got a table that was outside. It was lovely. Staff were darlings. Thank you.
Great spot for a shared meal and a cocktail. The atmosphere and the service are great, and the food is delicious! Particularly the halloumi dish, that was a real standout. Very generous servings, we had to get some take-away.
Service was a little on the over attentive side, but the food and beers made up for it. Sharing plates are a good concept as is sharing the bill which you probably want to arrange beforehand.
SO GOOD. Only got pictures of the desserts because we inhaled the dumplings and chicken tikka - the desserts were just too pretty to not take photos!! The chicken tikka was so elegantly presented and the combo of rice, chips, tzatziki, and mango chutney was to die for. For dessert I had the raspberry pavlova and my partner had the fudge cookie. Both were excellent - this place absolutely annihilates some of the other options directly around it.
3.9 | food was rather variable. Some dishes were delicious like the broccolini while others like the pot stickers were rather bland. Service was great and very friendly. Atmosphere is fun as it's one a street with lots of other restaurants and 'action' around it.
The food was delicious! We got the fried sesame chicken and the sirloin, the pork dumplings, the corn chips with beans and avocado. A warm chocolate fudge cookie for dessert. Amazing! All of it!
A solid dining experience in the heart of Rotorua with room for improvement. The staff were friendly and despite an initial delay in our waitress attending us, they were incredibly attentive. The food was tasty and high quality, but could come in smaller portions which were a little cheaper to aid the sharing aspect. The food itself was very very tasty, we had the fried halloumi, the prawns, the fried fish of the day and the lamb rump! All were very very tasty and we thoroughly enjoyed them! Overall a good experience and we are glad we visited.
