Grill bar in Auckland

“Bit of a hidden gem…wood fired pizzas!! Nicely cooked pizza. Chicken salad delicious. Big servings for decent price! And across the road from Sky City Hotel”

Carpark Cafe & Bar Waiheke runs with a classic fish‑and‑chips menu and a relaxed pace. Grill work shows a clean sear and rested meats. Breakfast plates are tidy and satisfying. Fillets arrive fresh and the fry stays clean.

“Stopped yesterday for a Dirty Martini and really enjoyed the vibes here. Decided to get another drink. The other cocktails on the menu looked so good. Got their twist on french 75 which they put seasonal fruits in. The fruit used in my cocktail was Tamarillo, so yum. I also ordered the pull apart bread, was nice. Definitely keen to come back for dinner service one day. ❤️”

“Stopped in for a few drinks. Good service and fun place to stop at when bar hopping in the neighborhood.”

“Cheap as meals Yummy food mussels always fresh and delicious everytime i go get the Thai Chilli $19 steak special cooked to perfection yummy seafood basket the butter chicken special could be better tasted different to butter chicken but everything else was great”

“East to west North to south Aces bar is the best For one and all. Great place for fun and entertainment with staff's and management my choice. Definitely will be yours”

“I wanted to eat steak, but there was no main chef, so I just had a simple hamburger.”

“Had a great experience overall! The food was absolutely excellent—every course was full of flavour and beautifully presented. The crew was warm and attentive, and the ambience was really cool and inviting. A special shoutout to the bartender—absolutely amazing! The only downside was the wait time. Our three-course meal took over two hours, which felt a bit too long. That said, the quality and vibe made it worth the wait. Would still recommend, especially if you're not in a rush.”

“It is a little restaurant, with a home atmosphere. The menu offers different options of main. The dishes are very well prepared, and they have a construction of flavors. The staff are very attention and worried to keep the client satisfied.”

“Went here for a Christmas party. The staff were amazing and went out of their way to be helpful. Food was Christmas dinner and who doesn't love Cooked Ham, Roast Beef with all the trimmings. There was veges and salad. Dessert was just as good. The room was festive and well laid out as th not feel squashed. Highly recommend this venue for functions.”

“We've been here twice in the last month, and had a great meal each time. The new owners are really friendly and nice, and the bar has a nice coast atmoshere. On the Halloween night they had a dress up session with prizes, and Nelly was perfect as an Angel. The food is all great. I highly recommend the pizzas and the steak. Both are excellent. If I had to make one improvement suggestion, it would be to perhaps get a a wider range of craft beers. But generally this is a great place that I highly recommend.”

“Gorgeous restaurant with fantastic mood lighting. Service was impeccable from the initial welcome to the food servers. Food – oh my yummy! We had tomatoes and ceviche for starters, then rib eye and ribs for mains with cauliflower for sides. Every dish was delicious and good size! Super enjoyable!”

“We got dinner and a couple of drinks each and WOW, this place absolutely exceeded my expectations. We were served by a super friendly lady, who seems to really care about this place and giving people a great experience. The food was outstanding. Huge portions! Steak cooked to perfection and the garlic bread was banging. We are very very happy we chose this place for our staycation and we will be back, thank you guys :)”

“Jervois Rd Wine Bar + Kitchen delivered an exceptional dining experience that exceeded all expectations. From start to finish, everything was flawless. We started with the lemon pepper calamari, which was perfectly tender and seasoned to perfection. The truffle fries were indulgent and had just the right amount of truffle aroma, making them impossible to resist. The wagyu beef sliders were a highlight – juicy, flavorful, and served with a delightful balance of textures. The mains were equally impressive. The wagyu brisket was melt-in-your-mouth tender and packed with bold, rich flavors. The lamb cutlets were cooked to perfection, beautifully tender with a touch of smokiness. The goat cheese croquettes were a creamy, crispy delight that added a perfect complement to the meal. To top it all off, the pomegranate sour was a fantastic choice – expertly mixed, refreshing, and a great pairing for the food. Every dish was presented beautifully, and the flavors were nothing short of incredible. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere of the bar was cozy and inviting. Jervois Rd Wine Bar + Kitchen is a true gem, and we can’t wait to return for another memorable dining experience! 5/5 stars. Highly recommend!”

“Awesome spot, top notch food and at a great price. Everything we ordered exceeded my expectation. The mussels were cooked to perfection in a tasty sauce and the sautéed prawns had a great kick to it that complimented the toasted baguette. These were only the starters! The main dish though was divine. We ordered the pork belly and the steak and ribs combo! The pork belly had the tastiest sauce which pairs with the crispy skin and tender meat perfectly, to top it of the kumara shavings added some crunch and extra flavouring. The mouth watering ribs were soft and succulent, falling off the bone. You think it cant get any better right? But this was paired with a cut of sirloin that was seared on the grill cooked to perfection. The tasty layer of crust holding in those medium rare flavours. Drizzle this in the mushroom sauce mixed with the coleslaw on the side. Taasty! Now hear me out, all this sounds like perfection but to top it off its BYO with the liquorland a minute walk away! Grab that bottle of wine and dine in for great evening you wont regret”

“they do amazing platters/ share box, very good value, very tasty too! great spot to do takeaway and sit and eat at the beach across the road! highly recommend!”

“I had a wonderful experience at Akdeniz. The food was delicious, especially the kebabs, so tender and tasty! The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was really nice and relaxing. I’ll definitely come back again!”

“My favourite korean restaurant, use to come here regularly, but can't anymore due to bodybuilding. I love their cutlet sets, delicious, crunchy, well seasoned, and sause is also amazing. Sides are also amazing. Too bad the food court itself has terrible hygiene standards. Tables, chairs, bathrooms etc are dirty. And YES, there IS gum under most tables and chairs”

“So sad to see this local pub close but looking forward to what it's replaced with”

“My daughter and I had a wonderful lunch, little miss 5.5 was not only all smiles but very well looked after including sneaky chocolate delivery from the lovely Emilie who expertly serviced our needs. Attentive, friendly and anticipating our every need, this girl needs a bar tab from the owners or at the very least a juicy slab of meat loaded with truffle butter!! A true pleasure of an experience with delightful food, service and even better views!”

“Great taste of Peru 40 minutes South of Auckland! If you want to try authentic Peruvian food stop at The Bull Rider Bar Bistro Grill, you will not be disappointed!”

“Six years on, and nothing else compares to this place. The ambiance remains exceptional, and the food is even better. With an extensive selection of wines and drinks to perfectly complement the meals, and authentic flavours that transport you straight to their roots, this spot truly stands out. Hats off to Sunil and the team for building such an outstanding experience.”

“Amazing Indian food. My partner has had a love for indian food where I have liked it but not as obsessed as my him. But, I love the food here. The lamb madras and butter chicken are amazing. Owner is lovely and great service. If you haven't, try it out !”

“Authentic Yakitori bar in Auckland, you must try the prawn with pork, it was juicy and delicious!”

“Great food. Outstanding service. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Auckland. Welldone guys”

“Delightful! Memorable, and worth going back again and again! The staff here are so nice, so humane, friendly and caring. Food is absolutely remarkable; their sauces are so unique and really mouth-watering. My go-to is the wings & chips with the nice & spicy sauce (it plays so nicely with the blue cheese dip that comes with it). Top hidden jewel in NZ.”

“We dined at Soul Bar for dinner. Our server Liz was very lovely and attentive, she made us very comfortable and answered our questions gracefully regarding the menu. All the dishes were well presented, fresh and flavorful. Good mocktail selection to, which was a nice surprise. It was a weekend evening so it was fairly loud but great, lively atmosphere for an inner city restaurant. Bathrooms were clean and tidy, rest of the staff were friendly too.”

“My wife and I celebrated our 25th (Silver) Wedding Anniversary with a meal here. The food, service, and atmosphere were great. The view out over the Waitākere Ranges was beautiful, despite the overcast evening. It was unfortunate that we were unable to have our preferred and reserved outdoor seating, due to the verandah being inaccessible for wheelchairs.”

“Another fantastic dinner at MooMoo! The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Everything was spotless from the sparkling clean toilets to the well-maintained tables. Consistently impressed every time we visit!”
