Dine in dinner in Christchurch

“Absolutely delicious! The food was incredibly fresh, and every detail was well thought out—even the takeaway came with a clever chip cup to stop any dripping. I had the mix with the shredded beef and it was so tender and full of flavour—absolutely delicious. And the churros were a standout—soft in the middle and just amazing. Highly recommend this place for anyone who loves quality food and great service!”

“Half crispy half teriyaki rice bowl. Well priced and well filled! Thank you”

“Delicious sushi, very friendly and polite staff and cozy atmosphere. I think it's one of the best sushi I tried in NZ. Been here many times and will surely go back again. Highly recommend”

“Had some really delicious Japanese food today! It’s not strictly traditional. It’s more of a Japanese fusion style and everything was super tasty. The atmosphere was great and the service was fantastic.”

“My husband and I come here quite often and we always enjoy it! The service is top notch, lovely friendly and attentive staff. My husband orders the same thing every time (the goat gnocchi) as he loves it so much. I recently had the fish of the day, it was salmon and it was so good!! If you are needing a gift for a friend, a voucher to here would be such a good idea. The portions are great, the staff are amazing and the atmosphere is good.”

“Lovely restaurant with amazing service. Staff were so friendly and they were so nice to let us keep our first table reservation even though we arrived late because of traffic. Our cocktails were so yummy and we loved the lasagna and fettuccine.”

“Best Lamb Dhansak in chch. Great price and quality. Ordered takeaway with colleague for lunch. Chef Shashir is very friendly and helpful. Definitely will be back!”

“Wonderful Sri Lankan restaurant. One of our favourite spots. The dishes are large enough for sharing by two adults. Lump rice is my usual order, but everything we tried so far was very good. Not for those that can't handle spice, though.”

“We loved this place! The food was fantastic. Staff were lovely. Quiet and relaxing vibe. Highly recommend ♡”

“We visited today as a family and ordered the Wagyu lunch set. The salad, kimchi, pickles, rice, and the tender, flavorful beef were absolutely delicious and melted in our mouths!!! The girls had so much fun grilling the meat themselves. We also tried the chicken karaage. it was big, crispy, and really tasty. We were so impressed by the kindness of the staff, especially the kind lady who served our table. Her attentive and friendly service made our meal even more memorable. Thank you!!!”

“11/10 recommend!! This place is the best - no frills, amazing prices, and huge portions! Incredibly quick service!”

“Absolutely amazing place to have dinner. Staff was super friendly and very welcoming. Food was incredible and the serving size is incredible. Will definitely be back. Thank you for such an amazing first impression of Hillary House.”

“It's not the cheapest sushi but the selection is great and the premises is very nice and easy to order from. Lovely high ceiling and nice furniture. Even the wooden chopsticks and soy bottles feel premium compared to other sushi restaurants. I would advise eating in rather than takeway.”

“Absolutely the best Japanese restaurant and a real asset for Kaipoi. First time diners and food was magnificent and cooked with precision ,humor and flavors are to die for. Will definitely be back.”

“Amazing food and great value. We had the red curry paste crispy pork and the crispy salmon and both were excellent. The crispy spring rolls and curry puffs for entrees were very good too. Great service. We really enjoyed dinner here and will definitely return!”

“I recently dined at Chichi Kitchen in New Zealand, and it was truly one of the best meals I've had this year. The culinary experience was exceptional, with each dish meticulously crafted using fresh, high-quality ingredients that showcased an expert balance of flavours. The presentation of the food was stunning, making each plate a visual delight as well as a gastronomic one. From the first bite to the last, every dish was a testament to the chef's skill and creativity. The service was outstanding, with attentive and friendly staff who made the experience even more enjoyable. They were knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations. The atmosphere at Chichi Kitchen is warm and inviting, creating a perfect setting for a memorable dining experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a night out, Chichi Kitchen delivers on all fronts. I can't recommend Chichi Kitchen highly enough—it's a must-visit for anyone seeking exceptional cuisine in New Zealand.”

“Ate here for my birthday and the Lamb Dhansack, Chicken Sagwala and Keema nans were outstanding. Some of the best Curry I have eaten and I have had curries in many countries. Great service too, keep up the good work”

“Great food and even better service! The staff were kind and helpful, and the meals were fresh and delicious. A wonderful place to eat — highly recommend!”

“Absolutely love this restaurant. Love the interior decor, amazing and attentive staffs with great service, and the food is spotless. Highly recommend to dine in and enjoy the vibe. Will visit again!”

“Always a favourite!! Usually the family's go-to for takeout but on special occasions we dine in. The young guy server is fantastic. He's friendly, chatty, and explains the meals in knowledgeable depth. The meals themselves are great, I don't think our family has ever had a meal they didn't like here. I also highly recommend the mango lassi - it's criminal if you don't get one. :)”

“Best sushi balls ever you get sooo much for such a small price crazy steal I pray they never change and continue to have good business. 10/10 and sweetest ladies working there.”

“Randomly craving Karaage, so I went to this place cuz it’s the closest Japanese restaurant I could find. I got Karaage and pork donburi and both are so delicious! Will be back and try the ramen next time!”

“We are here for my father’s birthday, brought a home-made cake. The friendly staff gave us candles and offered to put cake inside the fridge for us, that’s really lovely. Also introduced the food to us. And food is very good and special! Highly recommended”

“Top notch delicious food, fast service and lovely restaurant, Rangiora's best kept secret!”

“Super friendly staff and delicious food! Highly recommended for lunch if you looking for something quick and tasty!”

“I ordered through Uber Eats and tried the takoyaki (octopus balls) and the gluten-free teriyaki chicken donburi. I was pleasantly surprised — everything arrived at the perfect temperature and tasted super fresh, from the tender meat to the crisp vegetables. The portions were generous, and the quality for the price is excellent. I was also really happy to see they offer several gluten-free options, which is a big plus. Definitely a great spot if you’re looking for fresh, flavorful food at a reasonable price.”

“Great little pit stop about a half hour north of Christchurch. Home style food, lovely staff, great BLT, good coffee.”

“Wow. Amazing experience. Our German Chef was spectacular. Thank you for a great family dinner meal. Kids were amazed.”
