Sushi in Auckland

“Really delicious food and great quantity sizes. Will definitely try make this a regular place to eat!”

“When I first seen the size of the dishes I said: where do we go to have a pizza or else after as I'm famished. But was I disappointed....?! Yes in a good way. The last bites from the last dish I couldn't even eat it anymore.Each bite from each and every dish was not what it seemed to be....all was bursting of flavour. Your tongue gets super excited and buzzes....it is like a culinary orgasm...so you better wait at least half a minute before you take another bite. And prepare for surprises everything will taste differently than you expect to.And every little detail from plate to arrangement is very expertly chosen.And really you have to allow 2.5hrs for the full 7 dish menu....you can't rush it or you spoil it. So even if outside looks very simple and you would not expect for such a restaurant in that place prepare for Michelin macromolecular type of cuisine to delight you. Well done to Kazuya and the whole team.”

“Seriously the best pizza in Auckland! The staff are always so friendly and the atmosphere lovely. We love their gorgeous pizzas so much we had to share them with our friends and family at our wedding! Wayne was a dream to work with to cater our celebration and so many great comments from guests.”

“This is the second time we've had Pizza Pesto cater for a birthday. Each time the service is above and beyond - Angela was incredibly helpful even on short notice to deliver for our event. The pizzas arrived hot and our guests all asked where we got them from! The butter chicken one was a real crowd pleaser in particular. One guest even said it was the best catered birthday party he'd been too! Thanks for going above and beyond in every respect!”

“My wife and I had a great dinner at Okome. The food was delicious with an authentic taste that reminded us of our holiday in Japan. The owners were very friendly and made us feel welcome. In summary it was a very pleasant experience.”

“Amazing fantastic tiny pizza. And real delicious loaded fries. So good. Great service”

“Was an absolutely amazing place. The food is incredibly delicious. A lot better than Domino’s or Pizza Hut and was so fast we were in the car and got distracted and he came and delivered it to us. What a place, would recommend”

“Great service and food. Would definitely come back”

“Loved this place. Food is so tasty. The owner is super friendly and welcoming. I was over visiting New Zealand and he was made sure I had a great meal. Fantastic service and again the food is delicious. Located at East Ridge Eatery which allows groups to choose from different restaurants but still sit together.”

“Top notch Napoli-style pizza, the best in the area. Crisp bases and fresh toppings with punchy flavours. The packs of pre-made bases are worth getting too, for days when you want to make something at home. Highly recommended!”

“Celebrated our wedding anniversary and did not disappoint. Every food is delicious and the customer service is superb. We will surely recommend and come back again ❤️❤️”

“We have loved the vibe, the food and the service ! Small place with a great and friendly service. Waiter were good adviser. Food really interesting, different and delicious! Thank you, it's been a while I didn't enjoy that much to go to a restaurant and both enjoy the experience and the food! Great job!”

“True authentic Italian with great service and atmosphere. The pizzas were delicious and the lemon cello & tiramisu is a must! We would certainly return - fair price and no complaints! Would recommend booking as it’s quite a small restaurant”

“Regarded as one of the top three Italian restaurants in North Shore, this Trattoria does not fail to impress. I recently brought my parents for the first time here, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The spacious dining area, complete with offerings like gelato, formaggio, salumi, and il pasticcino, sets the stage for an authentic Italian feast. The service, professional and like a well-oiled machine, only adds to the charm. We indulged in the Leek and Potato Soup, Capresina, Spaghetti Alle Vongole, Tiramisu, and Tiramisu Eclair. The Capresina was a standout, generously topped with premium Burrata and Parma Ham. The Spaghetti Alle Vongole was a revelation—fresh pasta, perfectly cooked clams, and a symphony of flavours that made it the best I’ve ever had. To top it off, their Tiramisu is flawless. The prices are more than fair for the quality and craftsmanship of the dishes. Practicalities? Plenty of parking and a grocery shop next door make it a win-win. My advice? Just go. You won’t regret it.”

“One of the best authentic Napolitan pizza/calzzone you can have in Auckland. We ordered the Diego Armando pizza and a Napolitano Calzzone. AMAZING. 10/10”

“Such a good experience. The dishes were fresh and full of flavour, and everything came out fast. The staff were super friendly and really on to it. The atmosphere was relaxed and felt genuinely welcoming. The food was so good I caught myself saying美味しいwithout even thinking. Easy five stars ありがとうございます。”

“Best ramen around, lovely staff, no complaints at all, very well priced.”

“Culprit had been on our must-try list for a while, thanks to its reputation for contemporary New Zealand cuisine. We finally got the chance to experience it for our wedding anniversary dinner—and it did not disappoint! We opted for the seasonal menu with wine pairings and couldn’t resist adding a Culprit classic as well. Every bite was a delight. Truly loved it! The restaurant’s soft music, stylish décor, and gentle lighting created the perfect romantic and relaxing atmosphere. A big thank you to the professional and friendly staff who made our evening even more special. Keep up the amazing work! Culprit has officially earned a spot as one of our favourite date night spots in Auckland CBD.”

“This Japanese restaurant in Newmarket is such a delightful gem, offering you delicious menu with high quality ingredients with authentic flavours. The chef is amazing, she cooks succulent chicken with a healthy mix of tsukemono and options to choose purple rice. Even their miso soup comes with chopped tofu. They change their tsukemono on different days. So far the karaage chicken and teriyaki chicken are delicious, feels like a hearty Japanese home cooking. Give them a whirl — just across the Newmarket train station!”

“A hidden gem that serves up some fantastic ramen and other dishes. Went here with my fiancée to grab some ramen and katsu after a long day of adventures and hikes. They are in a rather odd location, a warehouse district with no discerning signs of a restaurant in the heart of it. However if you have the drive it has definitely worth a stop. Staff is super friendly and dishes come out piping hot. Would just mention that there isn’t a ton of seating inside and outside so larger parties may run into some obstacles there. However a more intimate dinner date is easy.”

“# Amazing pizza# Must try the special truffle pizza，actually 45 is not cheap，but worth it！ Special menu like a gift， everyone is perfect including the drink. If you are first time to there like me，just talk to the friendly staff，believe their recommends.”

“The best pizza I’ve ever had in akl. We had half and half of spicy Italian sausage and meatballs pizza. Staff was really friendly and theirs service is phenomenal. Highly recommend for anyone who loves authentic pizza.”

“Best pizza place in Auckland by far. Crust 5/5 Killer crust. Perfect thickness and crunch too it. Passed the flop test when you hold it. Sauce 5/5 Both their white and red sauce are amazing. Complements all the other ingredients and the base very well. Toppings 5/5 Great ingredients. You can tell the pizza is going to be great even before you bite. Vibes 5/5 Cool bunch of people. Last recommendation - if you can, eat there so you can have the pizza when it come right out of the oven.”

“This pizza place was a hidden gem. On Friday evening, after finishing work, I went there with my partner since I had been wanting to try it for a while. Parking was a bit challenging with limited slots and no street parking, but the cozy, welcoming atmosphere made up for it. The staff who served us was very kind and provided great recommendations. We ordered two pizzas: Mushroom & Ricotta and Chicken Meatballs & Artichokes. The mushroom pizza was incredible, with ricotta cheese perfectly complementing the crispy crust. It wasn't too salty or greasy - just perfectly balanced. The Chicken Meatball pizza was equally amazing, with fabulous meatballs and a delicious sour lemon zest. For anyone who loves pizza, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended!!”

“food was SO good. everything was good. shocked by how good the fries were - absolutely jaw dropping. everything on the dessert menu is such a slay - my fave was the sesame ice cream. lovely ambience, had a lovely dining experience. photo attached for proof that everything was DEVOURED”

“Very nice pizzas, they taste just like what you would get in Italy, which is a rare find in NZ! They also have a vegan cheese option and the dough is vegan, as it should be. The owner is friendly and it was nice chatting to him. Highly recommended!”

“Sorry for the photo of the half eaten pizzas but we were hungry! Very impressed by the pizzas we ordered, The Prosciutto and The Delhi Chicken. Great tasting classic pizzas. All 5 eaters were very happy.”

“I had the distinct pleasure of eating at Di Vino Bistro for the first time. It was a most wonderful experience, the service was amazing, the food incredible and the price very reasonable.”

“Just picked up two pizzas. Great taste, Way more nicer flavours than dominos. Sadly not much business going on. i would like to suggest trying to hand out vouchers to nearby neighbourhood and put a sign side way on top of the door. when driving pass, couldn't really see this is a pizza place. other than that, i would recommend to others. Thanks”
