Pizza in Auckland

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”

“I recently dined at Miyuki restaurant, and the experience was delightful. The food was delicious, with the sushi and tuna standing out for their freshness. The egg chicken katsu was flavorful, and the broth was perfect for a chilly day. Although the teriyaki eel was a bit too sweet for my taste, it was still enjoyable. Overall, the prices were affordable, making it a great value for the quality of food served.”

“My daughter and I went for dinner tonight and we’ll definitely being going back. Each meal was well presented and delicious! Tastier than other Japanese restaurants I’ve been to. There is so much more on the menu I want to try. Was lovely just the two of us, but can imagine even better with a larger group and sharing more meals. Our meals came out with some time between them so I did get dinner envy of others I saw. But when ours arrived it was totally worth the wait. You def need to try this one. My latest east Auckland fav.”

“This place is truly a gem. Service was excellent, atmosphere was really cute, and happy hour prices were super reasonable. But the best part was the pizza. Truly the best thin crust pizza I've ever had. Wish we were locals--we'd be there constantly!”

“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!”

“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 .”

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

“Great Japanese food selection and delicious food. Will definitely come back again!”

“Delicious food! Must try Spicy Garlic Udon stir try!!”

“Price and portion are both reasonable, and the food was excellent. Food was served a little slow but that makes sense considering how busy they were. Recommended!!”

“This place is a gem. We ordered share plates (edamame, chicken katsu, tempura veges and okinomiyaki) followed by Japanese ice cream. All were prepared very nicely and were delicious. Service was efficient and friendly even though the hard working staff were quite busy. The whole place reminded us of small restaurants in Japan. We wish there was somewhere similar near where we live.”

“Food is amazing here, had the salmon sushi roll, popcorn chicken, and soy garlic fried chicken. All delicious, best sushi I’ve had so far in Auckland! Just wish they did fried chicken combos. Staff are incredibly friendly.”

“Great taste and fresh. Main aunty is pretty angry and likes to yell at her workers in Japanese but that adds to the vibe of the place”

“Dante’s – A Slice of Italy in the Heart of Auckland If you’re on the hunt for the best authentic Italian pizza in Auckland, look no further than Dante’s. Crafted by the talented Chef Kevin, every bite takes you straight to Naples – fresh ingredients, perfect crust, and bold, traditional flavours. We had what can only be described as the best pizza in Auckland. The standout? The Carne Pizza – loaded with perfectly seasoned meats and baked to wood-fired perfection. But don’t stop there – the Bella Stacciatella is a creamy, flavour-packed delight. And don’t even think about skipping the Arancini balls – crispy on the outside, rich and cheesy inside – they’re the perfect appetizer to pair with an ice-cold Peroni Beer. The combination is simply unbeatable. The atmosphere is warm, the service is spot-on, and the food? Unforgettable. Must-try combo: Carne Pizza + Bella Stacciatella + Arancini balls + Peroni Beer = Heaven. Grazie, Chef Kevin – we’ll be back!”

“Was at a birthday party and they ordered Bian sushi! The rice was really really nice. Really enjoyed it! We finished it like it was nothing! Yum nom nom”

“Today I recommend this shop to everyone. It is a treasure shop with conveyor belt sushi. The ingredients are fresh and the service attitude is super good. It is recommended to call in advance to make a reservation on weekends, otherwise you will have to wait a little longer. It is so delicious. I will come again next time.”

“Very good sushi. Don't worry about the 1 star ratings they don't know what they are talking about.”

“My go to roast place. Would recommend the potato and gravy dish and the roast pork meal.”

“Its a lovely spot, I took a couple of customers there for lunch and was impressed with the food, service and atmosphere. Ill definitely be coming back. Thanks for a great experience. Your staff were great.”

“Consistency good food, and this guy serving the Katsu Bowls had that extra level of friendly service.”

“Bloody tasty bowl of ramen! The pork was melt-in-your-mouth good and the broth had heaps of flavour. Would happily come back for another”

“Good food, w ehad set menu dinner. Fresh sashimi, sushi, beef tataki so good. Chicken teriyaki had good flavor and wings were crispy”

“Depending on who you get if you get the grumpy ol Chinese lady she throws off attitude but I think that's just her as for the food it always taste delicious and is freshly cooked all the workers apart from the above are nice and always offer me a rewards card they have tables to sit and it can be accessible via sliding doors if you are wheelchair bound.”

“Professional sushi food ~I pretty love this restaurant sushi ~and staff are warmth ~ best of the Auckland ~I will be come back again !”

“I just discovered this little place and I will definitely be back! I have eaten Teriyaki Chicken Donburi more times than I can count but yesterday I had possibly the best ever here. Lots of perfectly cooked, succulent and delicious chicken, loaded with also perfectly cooked veggies, over plenty of rice that had just the right amount of sauce. I was asked if I wanted spicy and was advised, if I could tolerate a little spice (I can), it was the tastier choice. Great advice! There was a slight bite to the dish which improved the overall flavour without being so spicy you couldn’t taste anything else. The place is tiny and mostly set up for takeout. There are a few tables along one side but with very uncomfortable furniture. When I’m in the area I prefer to eat in during a break from shopping so more comfortable seating would have been nice. But that’s my only negative. And I like that they have longer hours than the other Japanese place in the area. Loved this little spot, can’t wait to go back!”

“This is the perfect spot to spend 20mins while charging your electric car on the super fast chargers in the car park. Fantastic food that they made specially to orders friendly staff too. Highly recommend James Ashwin Kakapo Business Sales”

“Clean restaurant with friendly staff. I ordered the teriyaki beef udon and it is one of the best udon's I have ever tried”
