Family dining in Auckland

“Delicious sushi, and with so much flavour variety you don't see anywhere else! Tastes fresh, would highly recommend.”

“Love the aesthetics. Food is hearty and reminds me of home. Would recommend dining in here for lunch! Especially with friends!”

“Spicy crispy chicken on rice is very tasty.”

“If you haven't been to this cafe, then you're missing something very good in Beachhaven. I think it has new ownership and they deserve to survive. The coffee is great. It's Altura my husband's favourite. Lots of people were coming and going, which is good to see. The food could have been at any five-star establishment.”

“My family's favourite takeaway in the Shore. Even if we moved out from the Glenfield area, we still get our food here. Service is efficient. Food is yum!”

“We decided to try this place after asking some diners who were just leaving if they enjoyed there food. Nice clean premises with an eclectic decor. We were seated with menus & hot Jasmine tea. So hard to choose from the beautiful pics in the menu! We ordered two types of fried dumplings, a pork dish and a beef dish. Food came out fast, nice big portions and full of flavour! Absolutely delicious!! Thank you will return soon.”

“Great place, loads of bars in browns bay but this one has a bit of character and the prices are the best around . Really nice friendly staff. Propa decent bit of food and portions are massive especially the hake and chips I think. If your just passing through I honestly recommend coming here for few beers and food.”

“Stopped in for lunch while getting a car serviced. The guy working stated they'd just opened so the wait time was longer but I wasn't in a rush, so not an issue for me. Service was friendly, food was served fresh and hot. Good lunch spot!”

“Tasty pizza. Ordered Margarita, Cranberry Chicken and Smoky Chicken. All were good, great amount of toppings, fluffy and crunchy base and reasonably priced.”

“The customer service here is absolutely outstanding! The staff are so genuinely lovely, they’ll even hold the door open for you, or bring the order to your car (when I've had kids in the car). The buffalo chicken wings are hands down my favourite, always a hit! Most people don't know about the chicken wings, so please do yourself a favour and add them to your next order!! Every visit has been nothing short of perfect. Honestly, I don’t have a single complaint. Highly recommend!”

“The guy behind the counter Aidan (hopefully thats spelt right lol) Guy was a hero, went in on Fathers day as per tradition and he let us know there would be a slight wait due to Oven issues, no stress at all! It looked like he was working a solo shift which is bananas for a sunny Fathers Day! Dude never crumbled under the pressure and knew how to prioritise orders, my family and I placed a pretty sizeable order so we were expecting a long wait time since it was just him doing it all, he managed to get the small orders out fast so customers didn’t get upset, he slipped us an extra few garlic knots as an apology for the wait (hopefully I dont get him in trouble for that) Just solid, cool calm and collected service! - matt”

“Amazing pizzas. Always loved these over the crappy D and PH ingredients that make you bloat. Much better variety than before. Quick and friendly service too.”

“Best pizza in town. Not traditional pizza but the best of both European and Asian cuisines.”

“This is our favourite local Eatery! The staff are lovely and so very accommodating. Being able to take our own wine makes it more affordable, meaning we can eat out more often. Love it!”

“Consistently great pizza from Sals Birkenhead. The manager Raj is always friendly and nice to talk to, and he makes a pretty great pizza. Sals menu is simpler than other pizza places, but higher quality and tastier - plus a large pizza is actually large from Sals. Definitely recommend Sals for a slice of New York style pizza, especially if you can get a deal or bundle.”

“Absolutely delicious food and decent service. The food couldn’t have been better absolutely chefs kiss as always! Service was good though was a bit disappointed that when the waitress poured our water she spilt quite a bit over the table and said she’d be back to clean it up but never did so we ended up using a serviette. Atmosphere was nice. Overall a really good experience. Definitely recommend if you want good food! Just bear in mind that it is pricey”

“I was searching on places to eat on Google maps, and this place popped up. I love my new York pizza, and for breakfast... why not? Lol. This was really good. Best pizza place in Auckland by far. It's worth the visit!!!”

“Restaurant set up as NYC pizza. Simple menu, but the taste was extraordinary. My favorite was the 5 boroughs. It was juicy and flavourful, nice and moist.”

“Clean and tidy lovely staff amazing sushi”

“Clean restaurant with friendly staff. Lots of options to choose from including chicken, fish, and veggie options. There is a fridge of beverages to purchase and additional seating in the back. The sushi I wanted was not available but they made it quickly for me and it was delicious. No complaints here. Additional notes.. limited parking on site, may have to park in the garage around the back .”

“Was absolutely amazing. Greeted by friendly staff and taken straight to our table on a busy Saturday (we had booked and would probably recommend as was very busy) Companion had the kumara burger and it was delicious. I had the platter "for 2" which was phenomenal decent portion of each item and all were delicious. We then had desserts and they were very tasty. All the staff were very nice too. Will definitely be back!”

“Golden Silk Thai is a special place where very good food can be found. I am not unfamiliar with Golden Silk as the family have been getting take aways there for years. They provide a very authentic menu and is well worth spending time in the restaurant too as some of the best dishes are only served in the restaurant. Highly recommended”

“Ordered on line. Pick up time said 7:16 didn’t get my food until 7:45. I don’t mind waiting for food but I do get frustrated when they say pick up at such a time and then keep you waiting half an hour. They need to sort out their pick time on the Internet.”

“I went to Caffe E Cucina for a tinder date (which went pretty well, I think she likes me!) for lunch, and had a great time. We ordered different kinda small plates from the prima section of the menu and shared those which worked well as we weren't super hungry. The service was good, and prices not toooo bad. The food was definitely the highlight (after the company) with everything cooked to perfection. Seared tuna blew my mind.”

“Great food and service! And Ainsley, our server, was terrific! I would highly recommend Bella Cucina!!”

““Best location to enjoy an outdoor setting with a stunning view of the hills! The customer service was exceptional — friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The cocktails were amazing, and the spice level in the food was just perfect. We truly enjoyed every bit of our evening — thanks to The Lounge and the wonderful team!””

“On Saturday night, we celebrated a friend’s first home purchase with dinner at Gina Restaurant. From drinks and entrées to mains and desserts, everything was absolutely delicious. Our waitress was wonderfully attentive, moving effortlessly between tables with a warm, contagious smile. Thanks to the entire Gina’s team, we enjoyed a truly joyful celebration. We’ll definitely be back!”

“This is genuinely the best butter chicken in the whole of New Zealand.. I’ve tried so many other places and nothing compares to Sagar. 10000/10”

“Our go to place for excellent food. Enjoyed the Biryani and Tandoori Chicken”

“-Very yummy food -Big portions -Reasonable prices -Prepared in 10 min -Easy parking (right by the store) -Nice and respectful staff -Lovely music (I was sitting there while my food got ready) I’ll definitely go back there! The photo is: Vegetable Korma with rice and naan bread Thank you :-)”
