Restaurant in Auckland

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Family-Friendly Gem in Birkenhead! We had lunch yesterday at Burrito House Birkenhead, and it was such a great experience! The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, generous portions, and full of authentic Mexican flavours. We tried the tacos, nachos, burrito, and sides — everything was tasty and beautifully presented. What I really loved was how kids-friendly the place is. The staff were welcoming and patient, and the relaxed atmosphere made it easy to enjoy our meal while the little ones felt comfortable. Highly recommend this spot for families or anyone craving good Mexican food in a cosy, welcoming setting!!”

“Had dinner here and the steak was absolutely divine. The lovely staff guided us with how to prepare it and the saké pairing was just perfect. Would definitely go back again”

“Lovely staff who came and turned the outdoor heater on beside me. He also checked how everything was halfway through the meal. The coffee was beautiful. I had eggs benny with avocado and haloumi and I would definitely have it again! Beautiful presentation and delicious. Will definitely be back!”

“This restaurant is highly recommended. First, the owner was very enthusiastic and patient when I was ordering. Second, the food in this restaurant is very delicious. It is generous in portion and good in taste. The drinks here are also highly recommended. Plus，What makes it particularly warm is that before meals, hand sanitizing gel is provided on each table. This allows customers to disinfect their hands before eating, which is very hygienic and aligns well with the restaurant's halal philosophy. Overall, it is a restaurant that makes people want to go again after the first visit.”

“The Lebanese Grocer is home to the best chicken shawarma I have ever tried, outstanding! Not just the shawarma but the hummus and labneh that we got to take home is unbelievable. Pro tip, they give you $2 back each time you drop in your jars for a refill of hummus or labneh, hold onto your jars. 10/10 - Highly recommend to all. James Ashwin Kakapo Business Sales”

“Best sushi on the north shore everything is so fresh and they have a huge variety of Sushi. They cook Bento bowls on demand and really great prices”

“My regular go-to sushi place, always so fresh and not badly priced.”

“Tried the free steak taco today outside Onehunga 4square. Loved it. Chipotle hot sauce topoed it off. Ended up buying some products for dinner.”

“The service is really good and I enjoy the hot tea. Hope to visit there with friends next time”

“One of the best sushi spots in Auckland!”

“Best fresh sushi in Manurewa, great selection… it is a hidden little gem”

“A West Auckland gem! Lunchboxes for events are fantastic. Awesome food, well priced, and so accommodating. Highly recommend!!!”

“Just with a friend and we landed upon a yummy meal in Mt Albert and spied LEMON GRASS. We dined in. Fast fresh and deeeelicious. A must eat. I think I'll bring my family here for dinner.”

“The grilled fish was amazing! Perfectly cooked with crispy skin and tender meat. The spices gave it a great kick without being too heavy. Served hot and flavorful—definitely one of the best dishes I’ve tried here. Highly recommend!”

“Delicious!! I tried the lemongrass beef banh mi and iced coffee. The sandwich was tasty with a good amount of beef, crisp veggies, and fresh bread. I asked for spicy, and it had a great kick to it! The coffee was strong and sweet. Prices were very reasonable, and the lady in the kitchen was so nice. Thank you for the food!!”

“The best Malaysian restaurant in city by far. Have been coming here for last 18 years and have never been disappointed. Angie and her team are awesome. Keep up your great work.”

“- Crispy pork belly banh mi 9.1/10 I added an extra $1 to have crispy pork belly, and it made the banh mi so much better. This place alway been consistent with their food, and always have the right balance of Veges and meat. Score would be higher if they add more coriander. - ROTI with crispy pork belly 8.7/10. Their roti always damn good, basic by itself, but done very well. - Grilled pork spring rolls 8.3/10 Another strip of pork would be a lot better. However, these are so good with the dipping sauce in the container they add. It is very fresh and delicious. Must try, solid and affordable vietnamese cuisine.”

“Beautiful restaurant, the smell of charcoal and the Spanish music makes you feel like you’re in South America. Food is amazing. The beef short ribs just melted in your month, juicy and tender. Fish had good portion and the sauce was lovely. Fried breads were hot and chewy, the tangy sauce was a great accompaniment. We ordered cabbage and broccolini as sides. Both were delicious and worked well with the main dishes. The only dish that wasn’t my cup of tea was the dessert, the burnt merengue was rich, sweet and too creamy. I felt like it lacked other textures. But overall, loved our first visit and would definitely go back to try other dishes.”

“What a delightful little find, rung the mobile number to order pick up since it’s always faster (and cheaper) than Uber eats. We got the vege udon noodles, Katsu chicken yaki soba and sweet and spicy karaage chicken and everything was toasty hot and delicious. The udon noodles took me straight back to Japan! We ordered on a Friday night and the woman on the phone accurately set expectations of a 20 minute wait. All in all a great experience and we will def be returning!”

“I had a flat white and French toast there this morning, and both were amazing! The staff were super friendly, and the flat white was one of the best I’ve had. Highly recommend this spot!”

“We got dumplings and beef noodle soup. The food was delicious. It is a small space with a few small tables, one table with 4 chairs and 3 tables with 2 chairs so not good for large groups or a big family to dinner in.”

“Kebab Serai in Remuera truly offers the best kebabs in Auckland. The combination of succulent chicken served over aromatic rice, accompanied by a fresh and crisp salad, is nothing short of divine. …A special mention goes to the baklava, a dessert that never disappointed. was impressed by the passionate food of the young owner from Afghanistan. I am very satisfied with the price, quality, and quantity. It’s the best kebab in this area. The future of this friendly and lively young man looks very bright.””

“I've tried all the sushi places in the area, and this is the best one. Owner is friendly and the place is kept tidy and clean. I eat here almost every other day.”

“This was delicious! I love how you can just choose one piece at a time so you're not stuck with an entire roll of one flavour. Every piece I chose tasted so fresh and well seasoned.”

“Very nice and fresh sushi, perfect spot for lunch! Highly recommended.”

“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!”

“Really nice cooked breakfast. It took a little while to arrive but that was because it was cooked from scratch with care and attention. The quality of the food and ingredients was really good. The place itself is pretty bare and basic, but also spotlessly clean. The owner was happy for me to move a table outside next time I go so I can bring my dog along. I went to the Columbus Cafe up the road the weekend before and was really disappointed with a similar breakfast. If your looking for a nice breakfast and good coffee from a friendly host go here. Especially go here over Columbus.”

“14 years in business is a testament to their quality. Delicious snapper plate chips cooked perfectly crispy shell soft inside had snapper crumbed and deep fried the eggs sunny side up phoned ahead before pick up definitely best fish and chips in NZ and I’m very fussy”

“I came to PHC after receiving numerous recommendations. We tried their OG burger and Chicken on waffles, and i gotta say, it was simply amazing! The food was filled with flavour, that you could taste in every bite. They also have spice levels depending on your tolerance. For the burger, I tried their most severe spice level - 'Holy Cluck'. Wheww!, it was super spicy but really delicious. Next time, I would go one step down on the spice level so i can better enjoy the taste. We ordered the Chicken on Waffles in the 'Hot' variant, which was perfect. You could enjoy the fried chicken with the right amount of spice. It also came with a special sauce on the side which was sweet & spicy at the same time. For dessert we got the Peach and Blackberry Cobbler. I have never had a cobbler before , so I wanted to try it. The dish was hot and came with vanilla ice cream. The crust was superb and overall great if you enjoy cobblers. Personally, I'll be trying a new desert next time. I'll definitely be visiting again. :)”

“Love this place in East Auckland. Nice and Cosy place has the best Beef Pho and Spring roll vermicelli in town. Highly recommend for a chill night out.”
