Restaurant in Auckland

“Went in yesterday for a burger and fries and honestly was so surprised at how much I loved the food. I had a dirty something smash burger and my partner had the spicy chicken burger; both were so tasty and good value for money. Wanted to bring my sister who was fresh off a flight but didn’t make it before closing, will be coming back next time we’re in Auckland for sure Lady who worked there was so so nice too, would recommend”

“Had a fantastic dining experience at Daphne. The highlight of the night was definitely the woodfired market fish dish — a beautiful combination of clams, mussels, prawns, and fresh fish that captured the essence of the sea. Every bite was a burst of oceanic flavour, delicately balanced with herbs and seasoning. It felt like a celebration of fresh seafood done right. Also really enjoyed the pork belly skewers — crispy on the outside, tender and juicy inside, paired perfectly with the pickled rhubarb and fennel. A great contrast of textures and flavours.”

“This is my favorite kebab shop in Auckland and finally had the chance to dine in instead of taking away. The back of the shop had plenty of space, allowing me to enjoy my meal while it was still warm. Their food, already great, tasted even better fresh. The staff was kind, and overall, this place stands out from other kebab restaurants. Highly recommend!”

“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!!”

“5 stars for Clare and her beautiful team. She arranged a room in the back for my birthday celebration and everything was perfect. Thank you guys! By the way...food is delicious and not expensive. Recommended!”

“This place is always busy so recommend you make a booking. The food is tasty and consistently good. And between October and February, you have to regularly go to eat, or just drop in to grab the mango sticky pea flower rice, as the season is limited! Dominion Rd was buzzing, despite no rugby game on at Eden Park and lots of people out which was great to see. Worth a visit :)”

“Thank you so much for looking after our dance crew. We were so happy. Dinner was beautiful.”

“I had an outstanding experience at this brunch spot! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish we ordered was cooked perfectly, and the ingredients tasted high-quality. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly — we felt welcomed from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere is cozy and stylish, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a slow morning. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and the overall vibe is wonderful. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a fantastic brunch!”

“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!”

“only got few pieces as quick lunch bites but all so fresh and goodd. Will be back for more”

“Urbanaut Brewery and Tap Room, a fantastic experience! As someone who appreciates good vegetarian/vegan options, was impressed with their offerings. It's not always easy to find a place that caters so well to plant- based diets. It's true that the food isn't fast food, so don't expect the a quick bite. The dishes are clearly made with care, and the flavors are amazing. The space itself is open and inviting, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful, which really added to the positive vibe. And of course, for the beer lovers, this place is a must-visit. They have a great selection of brews, making it the perfect spot to try something new with some amazing food. I highly recommend Urbanaut!”

“What a delight it was to eat at Morrell! The food was some of the best I’ve had in Auckland since moving here 3 years ago. Service was great and of course booking through First Table was seemless. Only thing I’d say that could’ve been better was the option to split the bill as there were 4 of us. But aside, top class experience! Thank you Morell team.”

“Everything is perfect! The pizza and the service. We appreciate Vishal, very nice staff.”

“I recently ordered from Surya, and I must say I am super impressed! The food was absolutely delicious – fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Their delivery service was quick and smooth, and everything arrived hot and well-packed. What really stood out was the excellent customer service. Kamal, the owner, was very polite and helpful throughout the process, making sure everything was perfect. The prices are very reasonable, and they even added some extra free items to the order, which was such a thoughtful gesture. Excellent food, excellent service, and a caring owner – highly recommend Surya to anyone looking for tasty food and great home delivery!”

“Friendly staff. Yummy food. I told them specifically that I do not handle spice well, while my partner loved Spice. They were extremely accommodating and gave us extra chillies and sauces.”

“Had my daughter’s first birthday party here. John the manager is so easy to communicate with and always replied to my emails within a timely manner. I love that they allow you to cater for your own food. The staff were just lovely on the day! Highly recommend this venue”

“Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience at the food trucks that were around and this one also. I love the puris . The food was lovely and staff friendly .”

“Decided to take my lunch at this lovely place when I visited Davenport, and I think I made the right choice. The Salmon on the toast I had was lovely, but a bit pricey tho. The great thing is that they also have gluten free and dairy free options available for those who have dietary restrictions. The staffs and the owner (a guy with that lovely dog?) were also nice and friendly. It was a lovely afternoon surely.”

“Good quality Katsu served with rice, salad and miso soup. The Katsu was cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and tender inside. The sauce as creamy and sweet, which did complement it well. The portion size was great and left full. Easy parking outside and plenty of seats around inside. Staff were friendly and the service was quick.”

“Awesome food! Had the ban ban chicken, miso eggplant, cabbage salad, sautéed broccolini and mushrooms, pork and vegetable dumplings and the tonkotsu shoyu ramen and everything was delicious, especially the dumplings, the ramen broth and the miso eggplant. Very nice service and pretty restaurant with chilled atmosphere. Definitely a go to.”

“Beautiful flavour and very filling. I would definitely come again. Thank you for the amazing food and excellent service”

“One of our favorite spots to eat. The food is always excellent and the service is warm and we always feel so welcomed. Highly recommend!!”

“This is mine and my best friend’s absolute favourite restaurant. Not only is the food incredible (we have never had a bad meal), but the service is unmatched (especially Brad). We’ve lost count of how many times we’ve been here, but by our third visit they already remembered our drink orders and that we want a chicken liver parfait while we decide what we order. Everybody is made to feel at home here and the service is amended to the person you are. Make sure you save room for a pavlova at the end as it’s the most delicious desert you will ever have in your life. CIBO CIBO CIBO”

“Delicious food. Consistently good. Friendly service. Value for money. Generous portions. Love the hollandaise sauce. Great coffee. Our family favourite!”

“Authentic, flavourful, modern style Indian that hits the spot. The favourites are perfect (butter chicken, lamb Rogan Josh, garlic naan) but I’d also push the boat out and add the vegetarian mains and yummy sides to broaden your experience.”

“We got some dumplings to eat at our hotel tonight, chicken cabbage, beef, pork and chives, chicken fried rice. Amazingly good. I highly recommend.”

“We stumbled upon this place after waiting too late to go to a restaurant, and so glad we did because the food was awesome! So many vegan options! They had multiple vegan pizza options, and multiple kebab/iskender options too! I got a vegan chicken kebab with vegan aioli, it was bloody lovely! The staff were very nice too, absolutely recommend!”

“Had the 8pc combo special, plus the rice bowl with fried chicken and pork belly — everything was super satisfying! The fried chicken was crispy and juicy, and the pork belly was tender with great flavour. Portion sizes were generous, especially for the price. Definitely a solid spot if you’re craving comfort food. Will be back for more!”

“Super Delicious food, would rate it 11/10. The staff super friendly and we were taken care of very well rigjt from the moment we entered the Restaurant. We were welcomed by the owner of the restaurant Ritesh and then we got help by the assistant manager Latika who suggested some mouthwatering dishes. Would definitely recommend this place and would advise prior booking as this place is always super busy. Do have a look at the video attached of what we had on the day”

“Just had one of their chicken and cranberry burgers from their Manukau location. Thoroughly enjoyable. Enjoyed it more than the other well known burger brand options. Great price and quality. Keep up the great work, I'll be back for more.”
