Grill bar in Auckland

“Probably the best food I've had in a mall in years, I got the chargrilled sandwich only $14.50, perfectly cooked tender steak, medium rare with cheddar cheese and an amzing dressing, accompanied with waffle fries, this was definitely worth diverting off the motorway for, just simply amazing.”

“Really grateful for the help I received from the team today. I mentioned that an elderly family member had a dental issue and they went out of their way to ensure that the meal put together was soft enough to chew and even paired my meal with a complimentary bowl of sauce to soften the chew. I’ve never received such incredible customer service in NZ. Ngā mihi.”

“Beautiful meal and the staff were super helpful. Location is great overlooking the Harbour and with the outdoor heaters going you can happy sit there and drink your 1 litter beers.”

“I order frequently from here on uber eats and pick up. The food (particularly the sashimi) is consistently high quality, fresh and taste amazing. Its so rare to find a place that does amazing sashimi. They deliver it with a small frozen bag to ensure freshness too. Perfect service. Thank you!”

“After reading and hearing all the amazing feedback from the local community, I had to try a Burger and Chips. The Chicken Burger was Huge and full of Real ingredients, I went with the Chicken Aloha Burger. The seasoning was perfect, the flavor combinations with bacon and pineapple were exciting and filling! *Real Chicken lovely and Tender, the salad components all fresh and crispy. I couldn't finish all the chips myself, the aoli sauce just topped it all off well. Highly Recommend!! If your passing through Hellensville, pop in and try one of their meals. Delicious and Fresh !!”

“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!”

“We found this amazing place, one of our favorite Korean food is Gamja-tang. Their Gamja-tang is worth every bite and money we paid for. Kudos to the owner, he is very kind, friendly and all the staff are very attentive, checking customer's need. We are so glad and happy customers, we could not stop talking about this hidden jem!!! Great experience, awesome traditional and authentic food, cherry on top, the service is genuine and more worthy than fine dine in. They try to explain the ingredients and dish specially for non-Korean. Will definitely come back here at FRIENDS, Highly recommended, this totally stood out among nearby korean resto around!!!”

“First time here for dinner, my family are locals & I wanted to tag along, great atmosphere, excellent customer service & friendly staff, thanks Moe for signing me up as a member ($5) & for giving me the details (very informative), I definitely enjoyed dinner, pork chop combo with egg, salad & chips, the other orders were the hamburger & chips, fish & chips, dessert was nice too, cheap prices & humble food, I will be returning back very soon, thanks again!”

“They offer good shisha, delicious food, and drinks. They both have indoor and outdoor dining. The shisha is outdoors with heater and they provide blankets if you wish to have one. The place gets really busy no matter which day - that’s how good they are. The food I enjoy the most is their cheesy mayo fries. It’s crispy and the amount of cheese and mayo is not too overwhelming. I also enjoy their Iraqi tea. I never would have thought I’d enjoy a cardamom taste on my tea. It soothes my throat and warms me on winter nights. Their shisha is 50/50 and I guess it depends on who makes it. But it is definitely a place to catch up with friends over food and shisha. Especially when you’re stressed and just want to relax. The staff are very lovely. They try their best to be attentive to everyone, even when busy. They always greet us with a smile. The owner is such a lovely lady and will welcome you like a family. They do have a good selection of meals and desserts. They also have RTDs, beer, cocktails, mocktails, etc. Suitable for all group size. I highly recommend.”

“I want to know when the pizza arrives! It's so delicious that I wish I could eat it anytime. The atmosphere is nice, friendly, and especially the outdoor seating is great.”

“Wow - A wonderful spot to enjoy a wide variety of beer. Super friendly staff guiding me through the options. Love the rustic informal setting and amazing beer choices. A must visit .... more than a few time to experience all the choices”

“Our favourite local! We’ve started visiting a couple times a week now as we love the friendly environment and amazing food and drinks. I’d highly recommend visiting you’ll become a regular too! ☺️”

“Great food. they accommodate the spicy level. Hardly seen in Western cafes or restos where they feed the whole staff, they should.”

“Heaps of sushi selection and it is amazing verry fresh and the food in the hot cabby is amazing too”

“Great store they have all your needs. Friendly service”

“This place is such a gem! The owner was so lovely and thankfully held the kitchen open later to accommodate our delayed flight. We had the best meal in Auckland! Awesome setting and great vibes.”

“First German restaurant for me and I have to say: I will come back. Me and my partmer had the plate A and even if it looks big, if you’re hungry don’t worry you’ll eat everything. Loved the sauce and the smashed potatoes, reminds me of my grandma’s one. I like the fact that you have tomatoes, coleslaw and other salads on free service. We also had the tab german beer and nothing to add you know just a tab beer. But the owner is really kind and gave us a good experience. Boyfriend here, I’ve been to Berlin and the taste is familiar. I vouch for this only german restaurant in West Auckland. Traditional I love it”

“First time visiting this restaurant tucked away in Takapuna. Glad I had my local son with me to guide me to parking and then the restaurant. Our waitress was wonderful. We started with chicken skewers and the pork belly. Both delicious. Mains were a t-bone steak and costillas (beef short ribs). Portions are generous and came with a side and a sauce. Everything was cooked to perfection and delicious. So much food we had to ask for containers to take food home. Our waitress brought us separate containers for the salads so they didn't wilt. She also provided tongs to pick the salad up. Just felt she went the extra mile for us. Highly recommend although someone told me earlier in the day it was expensive. This carnivore mum was delighted with the meal and thought excellent value for money.”

“Cannot fault anything!! Food was amazing , beautiful! Big call , but the Pork ribs and Moroccan Lamb chops and the best I've eaten! If your passing through Orewa , this place is a must visit ✨️”

“Best turkish food in Auckland, if not the country I would say. The lamb in particular is succulent. The cocktails were amazing too. Highly recommend!!”

“It's not fancy inside but they make the best fish and chips I've had in a very long time. The fish is beautifully fresh. Perfect light, crisp batter, perfect crispy chips and crunchy potato fritters. So delicious. Recommended.”
