French cuisine restaurant in Auckland

“Excellent experience overall. The food was delicious and well-portioned, pricing was appropriate, and the staff were very friendly. The space was clean and relaxing; the only minor downside was some noise from the nearby road.”

“WOW WOW WOW... Highly recommend Captain Chicken to anyone after a delicious bite to eat. Photo is of the CCT Super Burger, top notch & super tasty. 10/10”

“Yum, yum, yum! Highly recommend trying out this place. I had the kingfish sashimi, beef pad see yew and popcorn chicken. The kingfish was absolutely beautiful, beef very tender and had a lovely charred flavour, phat noodles too, soo good!”

“Best sushi I have ever tasted. The freshest you will find anywhere. Lovely staff too. Very friendly and kind.”

“Whenupai roast catered for my event and boy did they do a great job. They were super friendly and wanted to hear about my story. The food was delicious and on time, I highly recommend getting the wontons in your order.”

“Great place to grab a roast dinner. Excellent portion sizes and really friendly staff.”

“Very tasty sushi whit lots of meat”

“Excellent Mediterranean restaurant in Sylvia Park. Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner. There's something to sample all day. I ordered an Express Lunch with Chicken and the portion was just right. The food came out fast and the service was awesome too”

“Lovely place we never been to before. I have to say we left quite impressed, bellies very full and satisfied. Very interesting twist to the standard beef burger, the bulgogi patty gave it a sweeter taste. Missus had the Creamy Mushroom, and says its good. When she says anything is good... Its usually a 5 star for anyone else :) Will definitely return”

“Pork and Chicken Chow meins never disappoint. I've recently returned back after many years. Last time I was here was back in the 80s. Wish you had efpos, but hey it is what it is. Awesome the boys have all grown and are now cooking, still remember them when they were really young. Thankyou for serving our community :)”

“Amazing food and service! Beef cheek on Toast was amaaaaazing!! Started eating before I took a photo but hope it does the meal justice!!”

“Tasty food and super friendly service with generous portions”

“I really enjoyed my meal AND the dessert! It was quite a treat, at an affordable price and great quality. The eggs Benedict wasa great portion size and perfectly cooked. I also had an orange almond cake - yummy... The coffee was great. This cafe is somewhat slightly hidden , but it's worth finding it !”

“Hands down favourite dumplings in the whole wide world has to be the pork and chive in spicy sauce. Their ‘hot’ is not to be underestimated, but even though it burns a little for me it’s well worth it. Dan dan noodles a nice accompaniment to the dumplings but not a must. Portion sizes are huge so always go for the Small if in doubt. Fell in love with the original Basu Lounge in Takapuna but I really rate their Browns Bay location more.”

“We had dinner with my wife's family In cafe Hanoi a few weeks back and it was amazing. The food was delicious, the staff was really engaging and the dining setup was impressive. The food standout for the Taste, presentation and Verity of different dishes. I would love to come back again next time while we are staying in Auckland.”

“Friendly staff. The restaurant was almost full so I would recommend booking a table beforehand. The waiting time was short and we didn't have to wait long for our food after we ordered. The food was delicious and made with good quality ingredients that is better than other Chinese restaurant nearby. The dish sizes are large, so it's a ideal restaurant for family and/or friend gatherings. I was happy when I saw one of the staff put a dropped table cloth into a bin for cleaning instead of using it anyway, good hygiene practices. Will come again!”

“Their Chung fin is very tasty although their trading hours are quite questionable. They don’t open later for dinner. When you come here to buy food past 5pm you will have to pray they still have the food you want”

“Excellent fish and chips. Quick, friendly team and very good quality. Your the best. Cheers”

“Great local. Been coming here for years. Beside their fish & chips, love their sweet n sour, chow mein, black bean & fried rice options. Very tasty, reasonable prices.”

Pine Harbour Eatery leans into a simple, bistro‑style approach with tidy execution. Outdoors works well when the weather plays along. Packaging keeps things in good shape to go. Serve sizes show solid value.

“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 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!!”

“Not our first time at Elmos, and once again it didn’t disappoint. We were lucky enough to catch the last round of truffle season ,the dishes were absolutely amazing. The service was 5-star, attentive and friendly throughout. The environment is cozy, surrounded by beautiful paintings and stylish décor.”

“Absolutely love the food here! I always get the quesadillas and eat it all up every time. The service was also great, the staff were attentive and fast. The interior is nice and clean, just in the day there are a lot of wasps inside especially in the sunny areas near the windows.”

“Last night, after dinner was done, we went on a wild goose chase to find the holy grail of coffee and dessert spots - and boy, did we hit the mother lode with this place! The coffee was off the charts and the apple crumble was so divine it should have its own fan club - the chef is a culinary rock god! We also fell head over heels for the staff's super friendly vibes, especially Pranav, who's probably the nicest human on the planet. We ended up coming back for breakfast today and it was totally worth it - we can't recommend this place enough and we're already counting down the days until our next visit!”

“On Christmas 2023, my brother and sister-in-law gifted me and my husband a gift voucher to Parnell 149 high tea with bubbles. Was amazed by the food quality - they were delicious! The service was great from the 2 host and the manager Jazz. The restaurant was well presented, clean including the bathroom. Please keep up the good work.”

“Great food and friendly service. We walked in for dinner and we were accordmodated with booking for dinner. Group of 4. Everyone enjoy thier food. Fresh and favor full. Good portion size. Will definitely have to return.”

“Booked via First Table, so received 50% off meals, which made the value extremely good!”

“A little piece of Belgium right in the heart of Mt Eden village. Food is good and there are some days with specials at a very nice price (need to purchase a drink to get the deal though). Service is good and sometimes speak French! Yay! Can be very busy at times!”
