The staffs was very attentive and caring, making sure I am well sorted. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very cozy and breathes good vibes. Would definitely recommend people to come try 9bowls out.”

“This is the best Thai food we've had in all of New Zealand--and we've tried many Thai places. We've celebrated many birthdays here and other events, and the food never disappoints. The waitresses are attentive and always remember us. Just make sure you have a booking as they are popular.”

“We recently visited Gaja Korean Restaurant for the first time, and we were thoroughly impressed! The food was absolutely delicious, and the quality was top-notch. The flavors were authentic and satisfying, making it clear that they take pride in their dishes. The service was exceptional. The staff was not only polite but also very accommodating, always attentive to our needs and ensuring we felt well taken care of throughout our meal. As a fan of Korean cuisine, my wife was especially delighted, as it's her comfort food. She was thoroughly satisfied with her meal, and we both agreed that we'll definitely be coming back for more. Overall, a fantastic experience that we highly recommend. We’ll definitely be returning soon!”

“My friend and I had a beautiful lunch yesterday! My friend was not feeling very well. The staff were EXCELLENT and accommodated her request for something clean. They were willing to go 'off menu' and offered her a lovely lemon and ginger hot tea as well as a nice fresh chicken breast, veggies and rice. It sounds simple but it was exactly what my friend needed and wanted and she was very happy. I had a vegetarian meal of tofu, cashews, veggies and rice and it was DELICIOUS! Food and drinks arrives quickly. The lady serving us was so kind and genuinely wanted to find something that would be good for my unwell friend. We will DEFINITELY be back, it was a great experience and also a nice environment.”

Had a sausage roll which was Excellent and could tell was made in house Definitely stopping in more I’m an ex barista (15yrs experience) and generally have high expectations but mostly receive below average coffee So it was awesome to receive an amazing Flat White from the Barista at Karaka General Store & Cafe Thanks so much”

“I'm a big fried chicken fan and after discovering brew'd Hawt, I stopped looking for new ones to try. Truffd burger is amazing, a new addition of the waffles are also great. 10/10”

Palsun Howick keeps things pan‑Asian comfort and focused on flavour. Portions are generous yet well judged. The team keeps things friendly and organised. Noodles arrive glossy and well seasoned. A sen...

At Mighty Hotdog Royal Oak, the menu stays simple, bistro‑style with tidy execution. Portions are generous yet well judged. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Wait times are contained even when busy.

On the plate at Sky Horse Takeaway, the idea is classic fish‑and‑chips and well judged. Outdoors works well when the weather plays along. Easy carry‑out for a simple night in. Fillets arrive fresh and the fry stays clean.

“We have been a frequent customer at Zac’s Pizza, mostly ordering takeouts, but we decided to stop by for a dinner this time, and it did not disappoint! We started with the cocktail shrimp, which came in a generous portion and was absolutely delicious. The salad was fresh and vibrant, complemented by a unique and flavourful special ingredient sauce that really set it apart. For the main course, I had the steak, and it was everything I hoped for—tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked, with a rich and savory mushroom sauce. The service was excellent, and despite the restaurant being busy, we only had to wait around 20 minutes for our food. The staff here are always so friendly, with a smile on their faces, making us feel right at home. Plus, there’s plenty of parking out front, which makes everything even more convenient. We’ll definitely be back again soon!”
