Food establishment in Auckland

“Ryan from Barkers was extremely helpful. He is very knowledgeable in this field which really shows as he picked out the perfect suit for my bridesman. We both left feeling very positive and pleased with the service. Thanks Ryan!!”

“Wonderful tea selection, truly massive! And so many books, definitely worth a visit for a browse or a sit down. Had a lemon tart from the cabinet, which was yum. Staff were so warm and friendly, and very good at recommending teas. I will definitely be back!”

“I would highly recommend this place for Poly food. The portions are great, the service is very friendly and there is lots to choose from. Had breadfruit for the first time since visiting the islands. Just really gorgeous, simple and fulling meals. I was looked after by Asif who took great care of our table (my partner and I). You wouldn't see this place from the outside, so I recommend making the effort.”

“Had an awesome time with my family celebrating Mother’s Day at Me Thai and left feeling full from the great food especially the lamb massaman, the soft shell crabs, chicken satay etc”

“We heard about this restaurant through the local Thai community page on Facebook. We went there for Saturday lunch and are very pleased we did. It brings back fond memories of time we have spent in Thailand. Inside it is cosy and the decor is quite interesting and not overstated. The menu seems to be based on Thai street food plus many of our favorites, we had Basil stir fry with pork mince, Moo Ping and the best dish of all, crispy Pork belly with stir fried vegetables. I haven't had such good trasting crispy pork for many years. Everything was so good we bought two more dishes and took them home for dinner. However, of late they have been a bit Lackadaisical, opening late or not opening at scheduled time, without notice or advice on the various websites.”

“I went to many Thai food places in Auckland. And this is by far my first favourite. Yummy authentic Thai food at affordable price. Kind people. I love the Kao Pad (Thai fried rice) so much. Would 100% recommend.”

“We had an incredible experience at HEIZO Teppanyaki. Starting with the friendly service of the owner, chef, and his wife, they provided quality products and great conversation. We were privileged to be the only ones in the restaurant, so we received personalized attention and were able to chat and learn more about the chef and the history of the restaurant. Excellent food and experience, very traditional. Recommended!”

“Amazing service and great prices. Good afternoon snack.”

“Morning coffee and a cheesecake. Can't undo the awesomeness. Great options. Great customer service. I was just looking for a great cup of coffee, and I saw stumbled upon this place via Yelp. Can't wait to return and try other things on the menu.”

“Best Tandoori burger. If you are craving for Flavouful juicy chicken then you must try this.”

“Tucked away in an inconspicuous side street. Menu is limited but exactly what you want, with very reasonable pricing. I had a 16 oz iced matcha latte with soy milk, and it was perfect. Mellow, slight earthy, and a touch of sweetness coming through from the soy milk. It’s one of the best street matchas I’ve tried.”

“This is the first coffee shop I know of, where the taste is always consistent no matter what time you show up! Highly recommended.”

“Amazing Excellent food, Happy and Greatful to support your family Business”

“Really nice sushi and love the cozy vibes”

“Great quality sushi with a nice variety and great pricing. Would definitely come back next time I'm in Auckland.”

“Just came through and their cupcakes are amazing, I love how subtle the flavour is of the icing … not too overpowering. It’s definitely very filling and the service was great too! Had a great convo and would I definitely come back.”

“Great range of drinks, good price, and even better staff! RJ’s always got a good recommendation and they’ll make you feel like a regular in no time. Nice one!”

“I'd heard about this place and made the trip across Auckland and was not disappointed! The Rosier burger had everything a burger needs and the cheeseburger was amazing too! Will be back. Love the bbq rubs and sauces available over the counter too!”

“Highly recommend the grilled meats here, especially the beef — perfectly cooked and super juicy! I’d suggest going for medium rare for the best flavor. Their signature Kika sauce is also amazing and goes perfectly with the meat. Definitely a must-try spot!”

“Top notch Napoli-style pizza, the best in the area. Crisp bases and fresh toppings with punchy flavours. The packs of pre-made bases are worth getting too, for days when you want to make something at home. Highly recommended!”

“I had the best day at Yawara Ramen bar. The ramen is affordable and super delicious (some of the best ramen I’ve ever had as someone who has been to Japan). The portion sizes are generous and even the regular leaves you more than satisfied. The staff were super friendly and down to Earth. I had some wonderful conversations with the man with the kuma (くま) on his shirt! After lunch we went to the cafe section of the restaurant and bought so many treats that were equally as delicious. Extensive matcha menu is something I would like to try and will definitely be back. I loved it at Yawara Ramen bar!”

“Our month-long North Island campervan trip is coming to an end. We arrived in Auckland earlier than planned during our trip, and we hurriedly found a campsite. It looked like a vagrant's hostel, so we canceled our reservation. We were so shocked as to get out without thinking further. To think properly, we decided to grab a bite to eat at the first cafe we ​​found, but it was closing time. We were eating our takeaway sandwiches on a bench outside, and the staff came out and handed a full bag of leftover doughnuts and bread from the day. They could have given them to another customers, but I think they gave them to us because we were on our way. The reason I mention this in my review is that I was impressed by their strict adherence to the same-day sales policy. The bread from our sandwiches at closing time was crispy and delicious, as if freshly baked. They could have sold the bread of still good quality the next day, but they'll bake tomorrow's bread the next day. Isn't that wonderful? As we were leaving, the staff, busy with cleanup, all waved cheerfully and said goodbye. My initial panic instantly calmed, and I felt at ease again. My husband said the cream donut was his thing, and even though he was already full from the sandwich, he ate it all up in no time. It's a shame I didn't get to try the coffee. I'll come back before I return to Korea to try the coffee and review it. (No photos taken in the bad mood)”

“I ordered a burr grinder online from Meebz and received it the very next day! Fabulous service, the price for this product was the best available and kudos for the seamless delivery. Highly recommended by a happy customer.”

“I absolutely love Makiin Thai. I always go for the Som Tum salad, and it never disappoints. It's consistently very tasty and perfectly refreshing, with that great balance of lemon juice, fish sauce, and garlic. The service is equally wonderful, the team is so lovely, very friendly, and always serves you with a smile. Highly recommend.”

“Absolutely love Maakindii Thai Street Food! This place delivers authentic Thai flavours that are bold, vibrant, and satisfying. Every dish we’ve tried has been full of depth and beautifully balanced”

“I lived across the road for about 8 months and frequently visited Vero Cafe. I can honestly say it's my favourite Cafe in Auckland! The owners are very friendly and the food is fantastic. Sitting outside in the sun and enjoying their delicious all-day breakfast and great coffee was the highlight of my day.”

“Food is freshly made by a lovely person and quality is consistent. Part of the Browns Bay establishment.”

“Stunning experience, not only the food is outstanding, great service. Large offre of wines by the glass and even more by the bottle - mostly organic, biodynamic and natural wines. Totally recommend the experience!”

“great options , fresh salads , amazing atmosphere. Overall great food place”

“Definitely worth the 2-hour drive to find this cute cafe. I was craving for strawberry matcha drink and I read in reddit that this is one of the shops that they highly recommend. My first sip of the strawberry matcha is heaven!”
