Food establishment in New Zealand

“We tried this place for the first time today. Walking in I have to admit my first impression wasn't great. The restaurant definitely needs some attention. But the guy serving us was great and I found the food to be amazing. Once of the best Goan fish curries I have ever had. And my wife absolutely loved the Mango chicken. Awesome mixed platter with just the right amount of food for a starter for 2. And delicious as well! We will definitely be back to try some of your other dishes!”

“So peak. Get the 70 cent potatoes for a great deal”

“The salmon avocado sushi roll and smoked salmon nigiri fried tofu rice was my favourite. The salmon is really fresh and the service is extremely friendly”

“It had been far too long since our last visit! The food remains exceptional, and the service is still top-notch. The entire menu is delicious, but the eggs benedict section is bloody good.”

“The best sushi!! So sad they’re closing”

“The interior design and layout is so nice. It made me feel like I was in China. A variety of different things to put in your soup. I love the soup, it was so delicious. The lamb and beef skewers were nice. I love the chilli oil you guys have, it tasted absolutely amazing. The ice cream was good too, wish there was other choices though. The staff were friendly and always willing to check up on you and give you a hand. I want to come back again, but it is a bit expensive though. However, I think the quality of food here is really good so hopefully one day I will come back. Highly recommend this place for good quality foods and perfect for winter. Thank you!”

“This restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience. The diverse menu, coupled with top-notch service, made for an unforgettable meal. The dishes were not only visually stunning but also rich in flavor. I was impressed by the thoughtful presentation and the depth of taste in each dish. Moreover, the ambiance was warm and inviting. I would highly recommend this place to any food lover. Can't wait for my next visit! The new owner is a very nice person.”

“This place has left the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, presented appropriately. I would recommend this to everyone! They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience. Won’t regret.”

“Have gone to this place for many years. Offers great noodles and rice noodles, clean environment, good service”

“Came here after being lured by reel of ig food influencer. Did not disappoint. The seafood platter was scrumptious and salivating. Was confused by the meat inside the fried croquettes, turns out it's crab in white sauce. Everything was beautifully cooked and presented, I suggest if you are a seafood fiend, it's worth the drive out to Karaka to experience it yourself. The restaurant itself is comfortable and new(ish) since the hotel only opened in 2022. Very glad I braved the rain and traffic to taste such an exquisite dinner!”

“I was craving something like this and ended up here for my first time. Usually I'm a picky eater but the flavours are amazing, the service was great and super quick. Very polite and friendly also! I would recommend coming back here. Thank you so much ☺️”

“The hotpot at this place is super tasty. A bit pricy but otherwise everything there tastes amazing.”

“Delicious authentic food. We enjoyed three amazing, generous dishes and were amazed to see the amount of food coming out to the busy tables. Everything was beyond delicious and the service was great. Can’t wait to go back”

“I visited the Thursday market here and what a nice atmosphere it was. GOOD vibes all around, nice music, Happy store owners laughing with others. Highly recommend if u have a free Thursday morning to check this place our.”

“Jason and the team at the Captains Bar are world class! A big thank you to them for making our evening so special. Amazing cocktails, stunning view, great atmosphere, delicious food. The rum flight is fantastic experience. Recommend to anyone visiting.”

“Everytime I've been here, service is 5 star anyway but this branch and staff is exceptional. I came in with a big order and brought my own container with for them to pack it in and they were more than happy to cater to this. Admittedly feel like St Pierre's is long overdue for an upgrade in terms of their plastic packaging, but there is a work around and they cater. 10/5 stars for service! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

Leonard's Gourmet runs with a classic fish‑and‑chips menu and a relaxed pace. Fish lands crisp with light batter and chips stay tidy. Dumplings and bowls carry clear, direct flavours. The team keeps things friendly and organised.

“Recommend this place. Lil humble bakery and Cafe that serves yummy food and have awesome customer service. This is my go to place for a instant feed”

“Cosy cafe in the heart of Lambton quay. Tried a rice noodle chicken dish and it was amazing. Would highly recommend.”

“First visit to New Zealand 2024 fell in love with this bar...will be back early May 2025 can't wait!!!!”

“I got a beef nasi goreng. Beef was cooked good. Rice was amazing. A lot of veggies like celery and broccoli. Overall an outstanding dish. Definitely would get it again”

“Absolutely outstanding all round! Highly recommend this place! The service was amazing, it's a beautiful restaurant and the food was to die for! We both had burgers as part of the burger night deal and they were so delcious. We also had the arichini as a starter and couldn't fault it. Thanks for a lovely night team! We will be back soon for sure!”

“I think they might actually have every Asian spice/ingredient you could ever need.”

“Both chips and fish were fried to perfection. This shop uses only vegetable oil for frying in effect which gives it the good crunch. It was quite a surprise to find them open on Boxing Day too, and its proximity to Titahi Bay Beach is an equation that one can't simply miss.”

“Best kept secret in Porirua. The fish is good. The chips are fresh. The Mussels are Amazing!... I have eaten my fair share of Wellingtons fish and chips... I would rate this place as the best.”

“5 stars purely for the new york brownie alone bc it’s so damn delicious and addictive. it does get a bit loud and the coffee isn’t the best on campus, but it’s the one cafe i always go back to for the cheap toasties and ofc the brownie.”

“They have the regular bubble/iced teas on the menu, but they have a good selection of loose leaf tea for sale as well. I picked up a box of gaba oolong which I've only ever seen on taiwan-based online stores (usually very expensive), very reasonably priced as well.”

“Jimmy and Jane are THE BEST. They have everything, if they dont they will walk over HOT COALS NAKED to get it. Best prices too, highly recommend”

“Great local liquor store! Thirst Liquor Islington always has a solid range of drinks at fair, consistent prices. The prices are firm, but you know you’re getting good value. The staff are friendly, helpful, and know their stuff — they make every visit quick and easy. Definitely my go-to spot in the area!”
