Chinese restaurant in New Zealand

“We enjoyed the food and environment while we were there. Big menu selection, food was very good and the plating was nice. We loved the plum juice in a jug. They were short staff and gave us a plate of dessert while we were waiting- a nice gesture. Some dishes required booking in advance. Overall, worth it especially with First Table booking.”

“Very busy and delicious food. Good portions The lady was very friendly.”

“The food here is absolutely amazing, every dish exploded with flavors in your mouth. The duck omg the best ever.. Awesome service. Had our Christmas work lunch here.”

“Chicken wing special is delicious! And also the dishes are full of flavor”

“Very expensive for a takeaway shop - but the food lives up to the price. The portions are reasonably sized. We had Singapore noodle with prawns, and a Thai Green Curry. Both were simply delicious. Though I tried not to, I devoured that curry in a single night. The meat was tender. The vegetables well balanced. And the broth. Oh the broth. It was watery, but so jam packed with flavour that my eyebrows nearly sizzled off. If you have more than a dollar or two to spare, go here. It's the store on Great South Road that kinda looks like it sells either vacuum cleaners or PC parts with it's odd, green aesthetic.”

“The must have Bucket fish was very good. Freshly cooked at your table and the fish was very fresh. All the other dishes were great as well.”

“Really tasty! I always order the Nasi Goreng, and it’s consistently full of flavor. The smoky aroma from the wok gives it that authentic Asian taste I love. There were only 2 or 3 times when the flavor was a bit off — maybe due to a different chef — but overall, it’s one of my go-to dishes here. Highly recommend!”

“Best dumplings I have ever had - amazing texture, Cooked perfectly, explosion of flavors”

“The staff/owners are so friendly and the food is consistently so good, fresh and tasty! My brother and I have been coming here for years now. The best Noodle Canteen out there in our opinion. Great value for money too!”

Wokin runs with a simple, bistro‑style menu and a relaxed pace. Easy carry‑out for a simple night in. A sensible spend for the spread. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Portions are gener...

“Great lunch spot for Bao buns, noodles, poke bowl as well as coffee and sweet bites. It’s an Open kitchen where you can see them making your food made to order. Very friendly staff members. Great music and atmosphere as well. Coffee is nice to finish off your meal.”

“Sweet and sour pork was fantastic! Pork was soft and tender every bite. Cashew chicken was cooked perfectly as well. Good amount of cashews. Would come again”

“Homemade dumplings were very good. We had pork, prawn and chives. Enjoyed the vegetable chow mein too, which had a lot of fresh vegetables and wasn't too saucy. Looking forward to trying other dishes on the menu.”

“Love this place, very clean, yumm kai, loads of options. Mt mamas go to for her burger.”

“Love their quick and friendly service.”

“IG: 2Fish1Chip Order: Blue Cod, Warehou and a scoop of chips. Cost: $33.80 I thought two different fillets would be better for comparison and as a more solid baseline. Firstly, WTAF!?! The size of these fillets were ginormous!!! I had to put a can of coke next to them for scale! Both fillets were equally delicious and cooked to peak performance. The Warehou was fresh and steaky as you would expect. Tasty and filling to the very end. The batter had perfect colouring and crunch. The Blue Cod had the same battered goodness, and flesh was flaky, soft and melted in your mouth. Classic Blue Cod vibes all the way to bank! The only minor piece on both fillets was the batter. The inside was a little underdone probably due to the dense mixture, but it was only a minor blip against the entire experience. The Crickle Cuts, we’re good as well. Nice crunch before reaching the pillowy centre. The portion was twice that of an average serving. ✅ Portion ✅ Cost ✅ Taste - With an asterisk for the batter Definitely value for money from these guys. Not sure if it was a one off, but I’d be keen to go back and do check in come summer. Xiexie”

“The BEST takeaway Option in Wainuiomata. BIG flavours, VERY tasty.”

“We hosted our son's day for dinner for 25 people in our group, and it was beautiful. The service and food were amazing. Fast and very affordable, my whole family enjoyed their time along with the naughty kids. Sorry about the kids running around during dinner. Would highly recommend Taste Amazing for anyone looking to host a birthday party, or wedding simple lunch or dinner or whatever you like these guys are the best.”

“One of the best foods I've ever had here in NZ, I highly recommend it, good and cheap. Joe please, open a Joes here in Auckland please.”

“One of the best local takeaways available. Great value for both large and small groups. Always had very fast service and high quality food.”

“Very friendly owners. I love their chicken fried rice. Big selection of food.”

“healthy and yummy food with decent price, 4 days in town every day came for lunch or dinner, especially kids love it.”

“This is one of the best Chinese takeaways I had. The sweet and sour pork has fully meat and just some pineapple on it, good for meat lovers. Their vegetables are fresh and fried rice and fried noodles are very tasty. BTW, they change the style of the battered fish, now is so thick and juicy, worth to try.”

“Very yummy Chinese food best in the Papanui area by far ,always such nice service even the odd freebie chucked in to highly recommend :)”

Oriental Taste/Crispy Chicken delivers a classic fish‑and‑chips line‑up that’s straight to the point. Portions suit sharing without tipping heavy. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Plates offer plenty without weighing things down.

“LOVE this place. When we were still busy moving in - we had lunch and dinner take outs for 3 days straight and with the huge menu and low prices, it rocked!!”
