“Down for graduation, so busy time of year for Dunedin. Food was delishous, pork belly cooked to perfection. Wait staff quietly/politely checked in throughout dinning which was nice. Good evening meal.”

“Heard so much about the place and finally booked a table for a 40th Bday dinner. The night manager Holly was on the ball, friendly,attentive and knew her stuff. The food was brilliant! Had the dry age steak and worth every cent. Had the fries and beetroot salad to share and easily could've added a 3rd person to devour it. Overall it was a great night-walked out very pleased and super full! Will be back!”

“Went without a reservation as it is our first time in a while, Waris helped us secure the closest reservation.

Waris accommodated to our dietary guidelines (halal) and helped taking our photos at the restaurant. Overall, we had a great time!”

“We're spending a few days bouncing around south South Island, New Zealand, and as a North American who now lives in this wonderful, I am VERY AWARE of how kiwis love to slip beets into everything. So I am wary. Watchful. Borderline suspicious. However, we had a fantastic dinner at Vault 21 and very little of that was due to the delightful lack of beets. Allyson was our server and a total joy. She helped us navigate some shared dishes while also ensuring my dinner partner and I got a bit of the stuff we liked (but the other might not). Pierogies were great, fried not boiled, and just melted across your tongue. Lamb was very tender. The sliders awesome and thankfully not those messy types that turn you into a BBQ-slathered freak where you end up with bits of napkin confetti all over your face, waving brown-papered hands as you beg your server for wet wipes or damp bath towels. And a huge order of fries! Very tasty and the bowl was as big as your head. Awesome. Had all sorts of dinners and lunches this past week, but so far, Vault 21 tops them all. Highly recommended.”

“I've tried a lot of roasts in Dunedin and hands down this is the best. The lunch special with desert is really good value and the staff are really lovely. This is a gem, would highly recommend the meals and atmosphere. They have a chef who knows what they are doing.”

“I had a great dine-in experience here. The atmosphere was very good and the servers were very polite and helpful. Unfortunately I ordered a main gnocchi dish and got a spaghetti starter instead but i was hungry enough to not care or say anything. Regardless the pasta was delicious and the restaurant was also able to provide complimentary parmesan to accompany my meal. The portion size of the hot chips for a starter was big and great value. Thanks for the great hospitality!”

“My five stars that I've given are all for our server who was Harshit. Harshit was very helpful, friendly, prompt and made the dining experience very positive. I have to add how good the ambience was beautiful surroundings. My husband and I appreciated watching the birds as we looked out the window while dining. (Not all seagulls)”
