Entertainment business in Christchurch

“My wife and I are visiting New Zealand from the States on our honeymoon and chose this place for dinner following recommendations we found on Reddit. We ordered the “Trust the Chef” prix fixe option with some mocktails and were absolutely floored by how good it was. We ended up with eight courses: prawn toast, pork wonton, mouthwatering chicken, a xiaolongbao and shumai each, crispy roasted duck in curry, stir fried oyster mushrooms, green beans in XO sauce and tiramisu for dessert. Every course was absolutely delicious, and I particularly loved the prawn toast and the roast duck. The portion sizes were also massive- we ended up with two takeaway boxes and could probably have saved more if we paced ourselves properly. Midnight Shanghai showed us a spectacular meal and I hope to visit them again someday!”

“Exquisite surrounding coupled with impeccable hosting and excellent menu promises this is an ideal amazing place for your coming dine or event”

“What an awesome facility and super friendly staff.”

“From reception to check-out, this hotel delivered a great experience. The room was clean and comfortable, with a slightly unusual layout (external sink) but a fantastic view and a very comfortable bed. Casting was also built into the TV and seamless. Both dinner and breakfast at the restaurant were excellent—great food and attentive service. The staff’s hospitality stood out throughout the stay, making it feel warm and personal. The location is ideal, right in Cathedral Square and close to the bus interchange, making it easy to explore the city. A 4-star hotel with a 5-star experience—highly recommended for anyone visiting Christchurch.”

“We had a fantastic experience here. The food was fantastic but the staff were the real winners on the day, so helpful and bubbly. Koru always makes traveling an enjoyable experience.”

“Went on a Saturday evening about 7pm, was somewhat quiet. Staff were friendly and table cleared of empty plates fairly quickly. Food was delicious, and the coffee/hot chocolate drinks were very flavoursome and at a decent temperature.”

“The service was amazing. The popcorn was very good and came in generous portions, and the same goes for the drinks. They also have a great selection of movies.”

“As the old man lay on his death bed, he told tales of his achievements to his gathered loved ones. As he neared the end, he did mention one regret. "I wish I had spent more time at the Opawa Bowl and Jack". His family nodded approvingly, for this was true.”

“Best place in New Zealand for Australians to eat and drink. Great friendly staff, owners are friendly and very helpful. $25 parmi or ribs with a beer, wine, spirit or soft drink! We ate here every night and even went for the $12 bacon and eggs with free coffee one morning. Could not recommend enough! Large servings and unbelievable quality!!”

“Great place to have fun weekend with live music, food & drinks.”

“As a promoter, was a pleasure to work with the staff who were friendly and looked after our attendees. Security were relaxed and understood the nuances of a rave crowd. Sound and lighting production are the absolute best in Christchurch.”

“PK served us, He was amazing he accommodated all our needs, We played some Pool and drink some beers”

“Had to go to Christchurch a day early than planned. And booked here last minute. The service and communication was amazing. The rooms is fantastic. The bathroom and shower great. Beds are so comfortable and a great night sleep. Would definitely recommend booking here”

“Me and my work boys have hired this venue out two years in a row now for our Xmas party and the place is fantastic. Has everything you need and the owner Giwon is such a great guy. Very accommodating and very trusting. Highly recommended for a function”

“We are very happy with the custom sized trellis we ordered, the friendly staff had it made, stained and delivered in good time. It looks great, thanks again.”

“Wonderful art classes for kids, our son has been going and loves it.”

“Funky exhibition show casing Andrea du Chatenier was on. Beautiful gallery space and Caroline was super friendly and welcoming. A variety of works was on show from various artists in the smaller room and plenty to see if you're into jewelry, check out in the drawers, it's like a scavenger hunt.”

“Fantastic people and music. Can't wait to come back.”
