Food establishment in New Zealand

“One of the best Japanese restaurants in Auckland! It has such a cozy atmosphere, and the staff are incredibly lovely and friendly. Everything on the menu is delicious, but I highly recommend the sushi rolls and bento boxes:)”

“Sal’s Pizza in Mt Eden delivers a truly authentic New York-style pizza experience. From the moment you step in, you're greeted by the comforting aroma of freshly baked dough, sizzling pepperoni, and melted mozzarella. It’s the kind of smell that makes your stomach rumble and your expectations rise — and thankfully, Sal’s lives up to the hype. I ordered two classic slices: pepperoni and cheese. Both were exceptional. The pepperoni slice was perfectly crisp on the edges, with generous layers of spicy pepperoni that curled up slightly as they cooked, just like a real New York slice should. The cheese slice had a rich, gooey stretch and the tomato sauce underneath balanced it out with a slightly tangy bite. The crust was spot on — thin and foldable in the center with a nice chew, but still strong enough to hold the toppings without going soggy. The base had that beautiful light char underneath, giving it that authentic pizza oven flavor. What really blew me away though was the pepperoni wheel. It’s not just a gimmick — it’s a masterpiece. The dough is rolled around layers of pepperoni and cheese, then baked to golden perfection. Every bite gives you the perfect combination of soft, cheesy interior and a slightly crunchy outer layer. It's compact, flavorful, and ideal if you're after something handheld and satisfying.”

“Great little sushi shop i stopped in for lunch the sushi was super fresh and tasty I had the salmon and avo the lady at the counter was super friendly definitely recommend visiting if ur a sushi fan”

“We celebrated our daughter’s birthday party at Raja’s India Restaurant, and it was such a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious, full of authentic Indian flavour, and the service was excellent — friendly, attentive, and professional. All our guests really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. The team made everything smooth and stress-free, which made the celebration even more special. Highly recommend Raja’s India Restaurant for family gatherings, parties, or anyone who loves great Indian food!”

“Glad we acted on the recommended suggestion to try out the truly authentic flavours, friendly service and traditional setting and welcoming ambience that this hidden gem has on offer, neatly tucked off the road from plain sight and true to their name. Experience the discovery of the delightful, delicate lighting, traditional displays and decor, as your arrival meanders through an outdoor / indoor maze-like garden-path through the restaurant into various pockets of dinning location options; either completely under the open sky or under the “rustic” roofing. All the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, service is prompt, courteous and on point. The auroras that drift through the open air will tantalise and explode on your senses, but, guaranteed each mouthful will excite your tastebuds as you enjoy each spoonful, till the very end. We were not disappointed and will most definitely be making a return on our next trip to Ōtāhuhu.”

“Had a very pleasant experience, very welcoming staff. The only nitpick is that butter chicken was too sweet. Chicken tikka masala was great. Really wish they made it less sweet. The kids liked it but I wouldn't have been able to eat it myself”

“Best sushi I have ever tasted. The freshest you will find anywhere. Lovely staff too. Very friendly and kind.”

“Hands down the best Malaysian food I have had in Nz. The roti was amazing!”

“Love the service and the food is even better! Always a positive experience visiting this location. Will continue to support this business for the foreseeable future!”

“Lovely place, I have a coffee ☕️ here most Sunday afternoon..I think every other Sunday they also have live music, which starts at 3pm.”

“Incredible food! Restaurant quality with reasonable price from a local takeaway. Tom yum noodle soup came with fresh seafood, mussels, prawns, fish balls. And the fried rice and sweet sour slow cooked pork were delicious too. Highly recommend!”

“THE classic burger joint. Grabbed some chicken burgers for lunch, the staff were quick and friendly as expected, and the burgers hit hard as always. Reliable and tasty every time.”

“Just had the best Roast pork meal I've ever had , It was rolled pork and the cracking was Devine! Just the care the man took placing the meal was also entertaining! This is a destination A+”

“Located in a basement, with a few large long tables. Lovely Thai food. Music is a little loud, but able to have conversations. Recommend Papaya salad, tom yum soup.”

“This place is our usual go-to restaurant. The food is always delicious and well-presented. Their signature dish, Samsun Jjamppong, is a must-try. It’s not too spicy and is full of flavor. The staff is friendly and kind.”

“They have the best vegetarian sushi with many different tasty options. You can choose from the wide variety in the cabinet (which they are happy to make fresh if run out) or buy from an even wider variety of delicious hot food made to order; bento boxes, donburi, tempura etc. Can sit in or takeaway. They always have miso soup to order too. Best service, very welcoming and lovely. Highly recommend! My favourite sushi shop.”

“The best Malaysian-style fish fillet curry laksa I have ever had. My friend dines here often and he highly recommended I try their food, it was my first time. Our conversation was cut short once the food arrived, there was no time to talk but eat and enjoy every mouthful as my taste buds were having a party! Inside the cafe it's rather small and intimate, I counted 20 seats available inside, they have tables outside but it's too cold to be dining outdoors in autumn and winter is just around the corner. It wouldn't be ideal if you were after a space to have private and confidential conversations because nearby tables and customers can hear you. The staff are friendly, polite and helpful and I will be back for more curry laksa. Thank you for a delicious, mouth-watering experience.”

“I eat here often. You’ve got to try the lollipop chicken starter. It’s crispy and delicious. I love the beef mussaman curry. any stir fry’s and pad Thai noodles are fresh and yum. Real value for money.”

“The beef and cheese burger is simple yet absolutely class, the chicken nibbles seem pricey but they’re pretty huge. Overall such good food. Only complaint would be the fries to sauce ratio - the aioli is actually amazing but just slightly not enough. Customer service is excellent - friendly people”

“The best little spot. Our favourite spot for the freshest fish, best selection and best value for money on sashimi. We always get a deluxe set each - and it’s consistently great each time. Kind workers and free miso soup too. Not a single complaint.”

“Very kind and friendly staff. The place is nice and clean. The food is absolutely delicious – the samosa chaat is my favourite! Prices are very affordable too. Highly recommend this spot.”

“went in today to grab some lunch with my parents, their food was absolutely delicious. We ordered dahi puri, potato vada, gujrati thali and pav bhaji. Every single dish we ordered was made with such care and the taste was impeccable, I would highly recommend getting the pav bhaji as it was definitely a highlight. Every dish arrived on our table within 10 minutes and it was all hot and straight from the kitchen. The atmosphere of the restaurant truly felt like home. The service provided by the staff was excellent. Will definitely be going again sometime soon !”

“The service was impressively swift, getting us our meal in record time. As usual, the food was absolutely delicious and satisfying, making us very happy. The upbeat music playing in the background created a fun and lively atmosphere. We always enjoy our time when we come here, it's a great experience!”

“Had the yummiest Vegan burger. It was/is a taste sensation. Fresh as! Partner had 2 Little Huia Burgers. He said they were scrumptious. Once again fresh as!”

“Very tasty sushi whit lots of meat”

“Friendly staff and good amount of sitting space. The South African owner is the chef. We enjoyed the ribs and chicken. Good portion too. Found this restaurant on zomato, otherwise wouldn't have known about it.”

“Customer service is really good. For a small restaurant, their service quality is superb! Food... it is beyond expectations! Amazingly authentic and tastes so so good. Gives an original Indian Indian taste. Good food and great value for money! This place should be recognized as one of the best Indian food places in Auckland. Loved it! Thank you Falaq, simply amazing!”

“We used good George’s function room for a baby shower, and it was a phenomenal experience! The team were absolutely amazing, so accommodating, we ordered the food from the venue and it was delicious! Highly recommend their venue for any event and will definitely rebook for another event”

“Called in here today for 2 piece's of sushi $4.40 & a miso $3. Thursday 9 October 2025.”

“We were served by Sarit, he was friendly and generous. The food came quickly and tasted good. My 4 year old loved the cheese pizza and watching football on the TV.”
