Food establishment in New Zealand

“The food is delicious and tastes just like in Thailand. The staff are also very friendly and provide great service!! Highly recommend!!!”

“Little and cozy place so feel like home. Food is tasty and served quick. The green curry is almost $30 but it's a super big portion, good for two people. Wish they have the entree size suiting solo traveler like me.”

“I read the reviews before we went out to dinner, and they weren't wrong. Do not be distracted by the look of the restaurant inside or the ice cream ( which by the way is so good). But this Thai has amazing authentic Thai dishes that taste so good. Fantastic value.”

“Over in New Zealand for a vacation, and I would come back from Australia just to have the Braised Beef Cheeks again. Just beautiful!”

“Best cooked steak I ever had in my life and iv eaten steaks all over the world and the location is pretty good as well”

“My third time here and I’m always surprised in a good way! The food is very tasty and well made, and they even give you a starter with soup and tea. I really recommend it! The service is always great too.”

“Really special place we’ve been going to for years. The owners are lovely. One of them is the chef and they make sure everything is fresh and the oil is changed regularly and the front desk lady is welcoming and always remembers your name”

“The best Japanese/ Latin American food I’ve ever had. Everything was perfect from the service to drinks and food. Chefs Eiko and Komo cook to perfection. I loved that they came to the table to explain the dish. I don’t eat coriander, they also asked if I was allergic, just to make sure the food was ok for me to eat. I can’t recommend this place enough.”

“I recently visited Ramen Ria and had a great experience. The wontons were perfectly cooked and full of flavor, the pork ramen was rich and comforting with a deep, savory broth, and the chicken karaage was crispy on the outside and juicy inside. Everything felt well prepared and satisfying. Definitely a spot I’d be happy to visit again.”

“Really enjoyed our dinner at Tony’s Teppan Yaki, generous portion, fresh ingredients and great atmosphere. Everything was delicious and we felt pampered by the warmness from the entire team serving us tonight Highly recommended and will definitely choose to return! Thank you Chef Nick for the delicious dinner, Fiorella for the wonderful service and Chef TJ as well. Appreciate the heater around us to keep us warm during the meal!”

“I have been to Muy Muy multiple times now and every time they do it so well. The food, banging so delicious, absolutely mouth watering making you want more, not because you’re hungry but because it was so incredible. The atmosphere was amazing I went to the Swiftie Club night and it was the best time, dancing singing, they knew how to through a dance night that’s for sure! And the service! Every time I come here the staff are so kind and lovely to everyone. Such a great experience and I would definitely recommend coming to this restaurant over and over again. PS order the off the menu burrito bowl special it’s actually insane”

“Not being from Christchurch we wanted some Chinese and found this place which we decided to try. A little on the pricey side but we really enjoyed our dishes, honey bbq pork is delicious, great sweet and sour pork, satay chicken, combination fried rice and singpore noodles. Would come back so highly recommend.”

“Each dish was amazing! Came for yum cha from Melbourne Australia so my expectations are quite high and I have to say this little gem has hit the notes! Wonderful flavours, proportions and price. This is also the most clean restaurant ive been to”

“Came here for the 3rd time in about 2 months for a dine in meal. The service is always excellent and the food top notch. Never had a bad time, the owner is always smiling and enjoying giving his customers the best experience. Plus he makes these awesome artworks out of vegetables.”

“Best view of the beach, eggs Bennie arrived with hard boiled poached eggs however waitress was quick to sort & replace with runny ones. Friendly service.”

“Highly recommend redwood souvlaki shop Fantastic customer service from a young man I think his name is Rishav Fantastic service and smile great food and all around a perfect and pleasant experience”

“Very clean and tidy and the bluff oysters were to die for also the fish. Non greasy and batter not too heavy.”

“Great venue, delicious food. Service not the best as it was too busy and wait staff don’t look up when walking around to see if they could help anyone. Took us ages to place an order so eventually I went and asked if I could place an order. 55 minutes later the food arrived. We were offered 2 drinks as an apology without requesting anything. We did make a booking and recommend you book as restaurant was full for Sunday lunch. We were not in a rush so all was good.”

“Me and my husband had our lunch first time here at Zaffron. There are so many to choose from! We ordered green curry(chicken), roasted pork with noodles, spicy ribs and crispy spuid. Everything were tasty and flavorful. We definitely come back again soon!”

“I have tried pizzas everywhere from north island to south island but you guys have got perfect taste and flavours in every bite. Glad to say I have found my pizza place:)”

“Good sangria, Estrella on tap and they offer beer tasting for $25. We ordered picanha and it was good, comes out in a casting skillet so take notice on how you order it.”

“My Mum, Sister and I were looking for a local to check out for a nice meal and fun atmosphere. This place did not disappoint. From when we walked in, we were warmly greeted by VIP who was a very great Bar Manager and Host. My sister said her steak, eggs, salad and chips was one the best that she has had in awhile, Mum had fish and chips which she thoroughly enjoyed and my delicious crispy chicken burger was huge along with the tasty chips, compliments to the chef. Definitely recommend to all and look forward to the upcoming changes they will be doing.”

“My partner and I came here for the Wednesday night 2 for 1 Stone Grill and we were blown away! Delicious $12 cocktails since it was before 8pm! We both got a 200g Eye Fillet, our sides and the cut of meat was SO good! Great service considering how busy the place was! We stayed until midnight as we were there to watch State of Origin too! Great atmosphere and still amazing service even while the game was on!! Will absolutely be back! Great value for money!”

“Celebrated my daughter's graduation tonight. Beautiful meals , generous size and fantastic service from the lovely German waitress. We'll be back thank you!”

“The food was exceptional, with each dish showcasing outstanding presentation and well-balanced flavors. My friends and I shared the Tiger Prawns, Mushroom Arancini, and Sticky Chilli Fried Chicken as entrées, all of which were incredible. The Mushroom Arancini, with its crispy, golden-brown exterior and rich, cheesy center, was a standout favorite. For the main course, I had the Canterbury Eye Fillet cooked medium rare. It was perfectly prepared, tender, and bursting with flavor. From start to finish, the dining experience was outstanding. I highly recommend this beautiful restaurant.”

“Great place, nice cozy atmosphere, can get noise during mid toate afternoons but still a good place to get a great meal”
