Restaurants in Auckland

“One of the best sushi places in Auckland. The ingredients are fresh and in generous portions, and there's a great selection of flavours. The tables in the courtyard are fabulous to sit in the sun and people watch. Would recommend.”

“Most delicious pizza’s we ever had.love the ambience, love the taste.”

“I had heard a lot about Lucky Gs and their reputation as the best burger spot in New Zealand, so my wife and I decided to check it out. It's located near Kelston Mall, and there was plenty of street parking available, so we had no trouble finding a spot. It was Sunday afternoon, and the place was buzzing with people dining in and grabbing takeaways. The interior looked amazing. Lots of cool decorations and photos that gave the place a great vibe. The staff were super friendly and enjoyed what they did, which made the atmosphere even livelier. As for the burgers, they lived up to the hype. My wife had the Little G - a tasty, smaller burger that wasn’t too juicy but still really flavourful. I went for the burger with jalapeños and loved the spicy kick. We added a combo for $7, and the potato chips were perfectly cooked. Overall, we enjoyed our visit and can't wait to come back and try more of their burgers!”

“My favourite place in the neighbourhood. The sushi is fresh and the staff are very kind and welcoming. Highly recommend!”

“Authentic Thai restaurant in Browns Bay The food here is the real deal - very fresh ingredients cooked by Thai chefs. The flavours perfectly matched to each meal. Staff are friendly with quick service. I recommend all the dishes we had and more!”

“The best place for breakfast & lunch on Waiheke Island! Lovely spot with few seats outside, offering stellar breakfasts with REAL french patisserie goods (only place we got a like-in-Paris croissant in weeks...), as well as yummy sandwiches & burgers around lunchtime. Prices significantly lower than rest of the island while the food is better here. We came back twice during our three day-stay on the island!”

“I don't know how many of you know about this hidden gem. This Filipino BBQ restaurant is yum and charm, especially to the meat lovers you really don't want to miss it. Upper Queen right opposite the park, small venue but very worth the penny you pay. Great Filipino hospitality, one person to handle almost everything still wear his natural smile. The pork ribs, steak and the adolbo (Filipino slow cooked pork ribs) are the three recommendations you must try.”

“Amazing food! The owner is so nice and kind. Offered himself to take a photo of us. Creamiest pasta I've ever had.”

“I got 2 food items for around 20 dollars each, my whole party loved it here, the atmosphere felt very good and I especially loved the spoon that i used for my Ramen 10/10 would go there again”

“Mark served us at the front counter – absolute legend. Super friendly and made the experience even better. The food was great as always. Definitely coming back more often! Point Chev Burger Fuel!”

“We came to Devonport for a day trip and had a late lunch at Devonport Indian Hub. The staff greeted us warmly and even entertained our kids with snacks and balloons, which was such a thoughtful touch. The food was absolutely delicious — we ordered the deal of 4 dishes for only $75, and it was great value as wecwere 4 adults with 2 kids. Their customer service is outstanding, and the team is very friendly. They even let our kids play around, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We loved the people here and highly recommend this place!”

“The spicy chicken was nice and smokey. Owners were friendly, and lots of quick sushi and Japanese cabinet snacks readily available.”

“It was my first time at a vegan restaurant but I did enjoy my meal. We left it up to the chef and chose the big feast option which is $59pp (minimum 2 people) and a wine pairing for 1 person $35. I was so stuffed I had to go for a walk afterwards.”

“Absolutely delicious! This place serves an amazing variety of authentic Indonesian dishes. Our favorites are the mie ayam komplit and the soto .Every bite feels comforting and made with love. The owners, Mba Tina and her husband Riko, are incredibly friendly. They always welcome us with warm smiles and genuine hospitality.”

“Most authentic taste of Chengdu in Auckland”

Nice chicken keeps things pan‑Asian comfort and focused on flavour. Views add a quiet lift to the visit. The room sits relaxed with an easy buzz. Service stays present without fuss. Stir‑fries keep go...

“Really tasty food, well balanced flavours. Love the ratio of meat, rice and salad. My partner doesn't eat salad so I happily had his share. So glad they had a pop up at Smales Farm but wished they could stay longer. The spaghetti and chicken was tasty too! Highly recommend the adobo, lechon and inasal.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Food and Exceptional Hospitality! I recently visited Spice Avenue, and it turned out to be one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. I ordered the Tamil Nadu–style chicken curry with butter naan, and it was absolutely delicious — full of authentic flavor and perfectly cooked. But what truly made my visit special was the kindness and humility of the manager. When I was about to leave, it started raining heavily. Seeing that, he kindly offered to drop me wherever I needed to go. Even when I said I would wait outside, he came again and genuinely insisted on giving me a ride in his car. It’s rare to find such good food paired with such a good-hearted person. The manager’s care and hospitality made me feel truly valued as a guest. I highly recommend Spice Avenue to anyone looking not just for a great meal, but also a warm and memorable experience.”

“We found this hidden gem today! Food is delicious, and the cocoa products are unbelievable! There is so much to try. We will come back to try every single product. Finally, a place with real and yummy fresh fruit juices. We loved the service, very friendly and cosy! Thanks, amigos. We will see ya next time!”

“Lovely organic products with reasonable price and nice staff”

“Had the loveliest service when we popped in with a bunch of children today - one of the staff generously offering us all plenty of things to taste, and even opening a packet of chocolates for our kids to try. The prices on some items were so great, and we walked out with a delicious haul - the service and the pastries were excellent!”

“The best kept secret in Auckland. They are currently making unbeatable birria tacos and other mexican kai. Be sure to check what hours they are selling them as it may fluctuate Also worth getting some supplies for home too”

“Wow! Cannot rate this lovely local store highly enough. Within half an hour of ordering, the dress I had my eye on was ready for pickup. Fantastic, prompt communication as well. And, I couldn't be happier with the dress! I will certainly be shopping here again.”

“Loved our lunch at Aperitivo! The guy front of house was great and the food was delicious. Really lovely spot”

“Honored to be one of Warung Kerol’s first customers and DANG they nailed it. EVERY. TIME! I ordered their Chicken Noodle Soup and it is seriously one of their best meals AND my favorite. Their Indonesian styled Fried Chicken (ayam goreng bumbu kuning) is so good too. As an Indonesian myself, I truly 100% recommend this for any Indonesians in Auckland who currently misses homemade Indonesian food. PS: The owner, Carol is a SWEETIE and she’s so friendly and will help you with any enquiries and questions u have”

“Amazing service and great prices. Good afternoon snack.”

“Ordered the laska. Thick and creamy, good portion size. Very simple taste that could use some more complexity, but it was cheap and the shop is probably the best out of the given selection on the floor. Great service too. Would recommend.”

“Always brilliant, with delicious food and a great selection you'll be spoilt for choice. Nice background music certainly creates a wonderful atmosphere. The service and friendly staff always ensure a nice experience. We are certainly lucky here in orewa. The freshness and cleanliness will also have you impressed.”

“The sushi platter we ordered from Sushi Plus for our child’s 2nd birthday party was absolutely fantastic! It was not only delicious but also beautifully presented with vibrant, colorful rolls that looked as good as they tasted. The variety was impressive, with something for everyone to enjoy, and each piece was fresh and perfectly made and added a special touch to the celebration. Highly recommend Sushi Plus for any event!”
