Restaurant in Auckland

“I recently hosted a function in the restaurant and was very impressed with the service as well as the quality. Nothing was too much to ask. The food was simply delicious! Thank you Jessica and Vincent for your hospitality.”

“Good service, lunch specials are of good values. Nice ambience and good seating spaces. Plenty on street parking. Popular with locals.”

“Fantastic restaurant you must try if you want to enjoy some authentic Northern Chinese cuisine. The staff are super friendly and the tastes are amazing. Highly recommended if you are in Auckland.”

“This place is so homely. The soup is our favourite. We’ve had 5 different soups at 5 different occasions and they have not failed. Good for groups and date night (not really a romantic place but we love the food)”

“Called in here for for S2 Spring Roll & Shredded Pork Noodle Salad $20, Tuesday 25 August 2025. Been here before, it's very good, but wish they used veitmanes mint.”

“Seafood pancake, kimchi jiggae, spicy beef soup, bbq chicken, actually everything was really good. Pity I forgot to buy a jar of their home made kimchi when I left. I also saw a lot of people order fried chicken.”

“Chef is skillful and nice. Staff and manager are great and have such a service mind. Both sushi and sashimi are fresh and tasty. For someone who wanna try sweet sake, I would recommend a second one from the top (sorry I forgot its name) It was strong but well balanced, pairing with fish is the best. Also homemade dessert is wonderful”

“Very good place to eat. Food prices for mains around $30 with rice extra. 4 of us all had something different and we all enjoyed the food. Our young waitress was lovely. 2nd visit and will return.”

“100% recordable, I went for meat and vegetables, when tasting the dish, the meat was perfectly crispy and cooked. And let's not forget Argentinian fernet, a marvel.”

“We were looking for a Thai close to where we are, and we found this place. The food was very nice, authentic, flavourful, and fresh. They have a comprehensive selection of traditional Thai food. The atmosphere was good and the service friendly.”

“First waiter was a little clueless, but food was delicious and Caitlin Smith worth the wait.”

“Excellent restaurant and friendly staff. I don't bother leaving reviews but their chicken dish, Pollo Capri is out of this world. A flavour explosion. I am very impressed!”

“The service was great, a little bit hard to understand the specials, but our waitress was pleasant and gave me some recommendations. The food was delicious and a good portion, price was average to good. I would definitely go back to try more from the menu.”

“BEST PAD THAI IN THE CITY! Joy Bong had recently moved to a more intimate location and some how the food is even better! Not only is it the best husband and wife combo in the city who have owned and operated this legendary business for 10+ years they will always make you feel like family. Service 10/10 and food is the best Thai you will find in Auckland, and trust me I eat out a lot. Jess, Kakapo Business Sales”

“Very well presented Thai food, always delicious.”

“My spicy seafood noodles was very tasty with large juicy prawns, squid & scallops. Priced a bit higher than street food/takeaway joints, it’s to be enjoyed seated dining inside the cosy traditional thai decor… Reminds me of how Thai restaurants used to feel… nowadays trendy canteen vibe is more common! Service is always casual & warm family style.”

“A favourite restaurant we like to return to. Lovely service and delicious food. The steak melted in the mouth, highly recommend. Wagyu tataki is a must. They also had yummy Halloween themed cocktails.”

“Ok i firstly need to admit, I'm not easy to please these days, as i find many places just lack in quality service and overall taste and flavour. I'm happy to report this place is really nice. Wonderful friendly service and excellent quality food. We had the twice braised beef, lamb ribs, pan seared beans, chips, money bags and beef dumplings. All dishes were just as they should be. The lamb didn't look that nice but the first bite changed all that with a lovely flame grilled flavor. We'll definitely be back for more.”

“I've had two great meals here with friends over the last year (which is also how often I've been to Auckland over the last year lol), the Mussels are delicious! This time they had a new dessert on the menu, a Banoffee Pie, and it was stand out good!! 100% will order again if I'm back in Auckland. The staff are fantastic, really attentive and good at what they do, they make you feel like family. And they are so careful with dietary restrictions, we have a few coeliacs in our group and with everything on the menu being available as gluten free, they really enjoyed themselves, and the staff double check about the dietary restrictions to ensure no issues.”

“We celebrated our daughter’s birthday party at Raja’s India Restaurant, and it was such a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious, full of authentic Indian flavour, and the service was excellent — friendly, attentive, and professional. All our guests really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. The team made everything smooth and stress-free, which made the celebration even more special. Highly recommend Raja’s India Restaurant for family gatherings, parties, or anyone who loves great Indian food!”

“Hands down the best Malaysian food I have had in Nz. The roti was amazing!”

“Great little Irish Pub tucked away down a side alley in Newmarket. It was the perfect stop for a restful lunch and drink after shopping up a storm at the Newmarket mall. Great, friendly service. Meals were fantastic and reasonably priced. We enjoyed steak and the special of the day Beef Thai Salad. Will definitely stop in again!”

“Learned about this hidden gem from family and friends, and dropped by for lunch after picking up groceries. The chicken and squid karaage had the perfect balance of crunch and tenderness, while the egg and potato salad was a particularly inspired compliment. Loved the calm, cosy vibes of the premises, too - mix of indoor, shaded and outdoor seating available.”

“We had a great time at Poco Loco. Great food and staff were very helpful. The croquettes are a must try! Must visit if you’re after authentic Spanish tapas.”

“Wow !! What a wonderful surprise today when we randomly selected Vino Vino for lunch on our day trip to Waiheke. Our random choice was due to the incredible views. From the start to the end the service, meal and attention was first class. We have been fortunate enough to eat at some incredible restaurants throughout the World and would have to rate this establishment right up there. The food was faultless with a perfect combination of ingredients.Connie and staff…congratulations.”

“I had a pleasant experience at this restaurant today. The beef and sushi was excellent, very flavourful and pleasant to the mouth. The service by Sophia and Lucas was excellent and commendable as they were extremely friendly. If you’re in the area i would highly recommend.”

“We had the Grilled Paneer Tikka, Goat curry, Tandoori Chicken, Dal Tadka and garlic naan . They were all very delicious and the service was excellent . I always come back here for Indian food.”

“Enjoyed a breakfast here on a Monday morning in an outdoor seating overlooking Oneroa township. Monday is a relatively quiet day on Waiheke without the weekend xrowds. The menu for breakfast and brunch was reasonably comprehensive and well priced. The restaurant was busy and frequented by locals which was a good sign”

“my go to for Vietnamese food!! beef pho is always tasty and flavourful! tried their chicken broth and its equally tasty!”

“Amazing food and service. Every dish we ordered was delicious and the service was impeccable. Thanks for an incredible evening and memorable food. Look forward to coming again ☺️”
