Family dining in Christchurch

“Best place in town for corn chips and dip! The queso dip is insane. I had to order some to take home with me after our meal. Frozen margaritas are my favourite also. Will be back regularly for sure!”

“We are visiting Chch and had the crispy pork pad Thai and it was the best we’ve ever had. Also the peanut satay chicken and that also was so delicious as was the BBQ pork fried rice, moneybags and the spring rolls were yummy. Highly recommend. We can’t wait to try it again soon. Thank you .”

“Food that worth waiting for. Reasonable price. Good food. Great chef.”

“Ten out of ten for this restaurant, making it great value for money. I ordered Somtam, Tom Saep Beef and Tom Yum Wonton the meal showcased the essence of authentic Southeast Asian cuisine. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for bold flavors and variety in their meals!”

“So good, nicest Thai food I've had in a while! Lovely service too. As a vegetarian, they specially made my pad thai for me to have tofu instead of meat which was a really nice gesture. :)”

“The food was little bit too sweat but not too salty. Amount was huge! All foods were tasty and super fast to go. I will definitely visit here again when I will visit Hornby!”

“Excellent service, food was ready fast, good price, great vegetable selection in the black bean beef and meat very tender, sweet and sour pork tender and so yummy, will definitely go back.”

“As a local we are spoilt for choice, awesome bakery, Indian ,chinese and the best rice balls period. But once a week or so i get my regular large mixed meat on salad with Aioli and sweet chilli sauce, pita bread on the side. Perfect, i phone in and its ready when they said , especially love the salad strangely, they ask, but i say all salads. I recommend”

“Great service great food. For $13 my tray was full. Have also tried the blue cod with chips and recommend this place for your standard fish n chip stop.”

“The food is amazing spices are there it’s flavourful and my favourite Indian place in Christ church the food is at your table in under 30 mins and tastes amazing every time there’s also a buy 1 get one free deal on Wednesdays”

“It was a fantastic experience, food was amazing. Had lamb with two types of couscous and Arab rice. My partner had also lamb with other sides, I must say the Greek salad was on top there as well. Updated the menu too, the one from 4years ago might not be relevant anymore...”

“Went to Bunco’s for brunch and it was delicious, the atmosphere was nice and cosy however the hot drinks we ordered were nice enough but only lukewarm. The eggs were perfectly cooked as was the entire meal for both.”

“Absolutely great service, quick and tasty food. Even scored 2 free cans of drink as it was hot weather. Highly recommend!!”

The kitchen at Arbie Restaurant takes a simple, bistro‑style path and lets the food speak. Value feels fair for the quality. Portions are generous yet well judged. The team keeps things friendly and organised.

“Great place. Owners are 3 brothers. Food is fabulous.”

“This is one of my favorite Thai places in canterbury. If you live outside of lincoln, it is worth the drive in to try this place. I have had the pad Thai twice and the crispy fish which comes highly recommended. Don't be afraid of the spiciness, get the medium! Beef cheek curry is to die for.”

“This lil chinese boy served me and he was a friendly fella asked me about my day and had great customer service!!!! good kumara chips, good fish, good hot dog, good jam rap, good onion rings, good nuggets, good deep fried mussels, good blue cod!!! fed a familty of 25. my baby boy enjoyed the choc donut very much had to go back twice in one week.

“I love sushi ya they are soo underrated I love the rice balls they r soo good,100% recommend”

“I was once hungry and came home from work and was craving sushi. Came across this amazing place and what a steal. Low prices fresh Sushi! I can’t stop DoorDashing it (oops…) it’s just so addicting lovely and fresh. Might have to go in-store one-day! :D”

“First time had lunch with my wife today. Many interesting dishes on the lunch menu. My wife ordered the Fuji special dumpling set menu $22. It cames with small plates of pickle, bokchoi, fruit, vinegar and chili sauce. The dumplings were reasonable size full of meat and tasty. I ordered the HK style soya chicken leg$15.99 also cames with little plates of pickles, bokchoi, fruit and a small bowl of seaweed soup and rice. I have to asked the friendly waitress to have the chicken leg chopped up as it cames out whole. We enjoyed our meals and the friendly services of the waitress. Will come back to try their dinner as there are lots interesting dishes on the dinner menu.”

“Oh my goodness! This hidden gem of a Japanese eatery is an ideal spot for a lunchtime visit. They craft various delightful Dons that are not only visually stunning but also bursting with delicious flavors. Each dish is freshly prepared and elegantly presented in distinctive bowls, providing a rich cultural and culinary experience.”

“Great place to eat with excellent food, very friendly staff and cool athmosphere.”

“The restaurant itself is not that spectacular to dit in, but luckily the beach is just some meters away. Getting takeaway at eat at the beach is the best choice to make. We only gad to wait 20 minutes for two dishes, which were really tasty! The butter Naan was also good. This restaurant has a wide variety of non-vegetarian and vegetarian dishes which all have a good price.”

“Awesome huge servings of great tasting food. 1 order was easily enough for 2 people. During winter the wait is very cold.”

“had an amazing kids-birthday party there. Delicious finger bites, time and space in a stress free environment after lots of jumping action prior. just what we needed! Reservation process and food choice flexibility was smooth and simple. I rang up, shared my vision, we arranged time, date and space requirements and common-sense rules few days ahead. On the day staff supported us just the right amount, there when we needed them but no gathering otherwise. VERY HAPPY to support a LOCAL BUSSINES and help them thrive as they do offer some outstanding flavors that people are simply to 'chicken' to try chicken in a different flavor.... but all our guests were amazed too. see you again 100%”

“Amazing service and communication. Really clean establishment. Got my pizza fast with a smile.”
