Food establishment in New Zealand

“Update: its been a couple of yesrs since I first reviewed here. It feels like it maybe has new ownership. The cooked menu is offering all options now. Staff are still friendly, service, cabinet and coffee are good. Under new management since last time I was here. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Staple bakery items are still available but quite a few cooked menu items are no longer available. The coffee is now by Allpress, but the coffee training needs some work as my coffee was poorly extracted, the texture light and watery and the milk texture had too much air.”

“From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere made us feel right at home. The food was absolutely exceptional, with each dish bursting with fresh flavors and beautifully presented. The service was attentive and friendly, making our evening truly memorable also all staff nature is awesome. Thanks for brilliant services.”

What was a quick stop on the way somewhere turned into a memorable visit, great service, and a treat for my friends!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Experience at Area 51 - Auckland Adventure Park Our recent visit to Area 51 at Auckland Adventure Park was nothing short of fantastic! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Check-in was seamless, and the staff efficiently sorted out our wristbands. We appreciated that each type of pass was color-coded, making it easy to differentiate between different activities—such a thoughtful and organized system! The food at the reception was surprisingly good and well-priced. There was a great selection for both adults and kids. We especially loved the kids’ meal options, which came with drinks—perfect for families looking to grab a quick bite before heading off for more adventure. It wasn’t just about convenience; the food was delicious too! From the reception, you can either head down to the lower part of the park, where there’s a fun kids’ playground, or make your way up to the bus stop for the ride up the hill. The Mitsubishi Rosa bus ride was comfortable, offering a scenic route to the upper part of the park. Up there, the real adventure begins—luge rides, the exhilarating zip line, and the thrilling Shooting Star! One thing that stood out to us was the atmosphere. Right outside the reception, there’s a luge car on display along with a price list for each of the activities, which really adds to the excitement and anticipation. Plus, there’s a huge screen showcasing all the activities the park offers. It’s a clever way to get everyone hyped up and makes it easy to plan your day. The park is well-organized, clean, and full of fun activities for everyone. Whether you’re with family or friends, there’s something for every age group. We’ll definitely be returning, and we highly recommend Area 51 at Auckland Adventure Park to anyone looking for a thrilling adventure!”

“This restaurant serves tasty food that both my husband and I enjoyed. Hunan food is very spicy but they happily toned it back for my husband, who can't handle too much chilli. The menu is very porky but I don't like pork so we tried various other options instead. The smelly tofu entree was suitably pungent and came topped with hot chilli. It was too hot for my husband but just right for me so I hoovered it all up. We also had hot and sour pickled radish, dong 'an chicken and stir fried chicken. All were lovely. The owner was friendly and interested to know what we thought of the food given we were the only non Asian patrons. The only negative - and it's not a big deal - is that the owner was busy in the kitchen when we arrived and it took quite a while before she noticed us standing at the counter. But we didn't mind too much and would happily eat there again.”

“Love the milk tea. The pearls were sweet, soft, and chewy. Wonderful shop. The drinks are made with love, definitely will come back to support bubble tea shops that make drinks with love.”

“First time visiting this store. Much larger than I expected. Lots of spices, variety of sauces and pickles, many interesting things to try. Friendly staff. Prices well marked and everything I looked at had over 6 months before the expiry date.”

“I had an amazing experience at this Super Spicy & Grocery shop! They offer an incredible selection of authentic Sri Lankan and Indian spices, snacks, and grocery items. The store is well-organized, making it easy to find what you're looking for. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and always happy to offer recommendations. Whether you're looking for a specific ingredient or wanting to try something new, this place is a treasure trove for anyone who loves rich, bold flavors. Highly recommend for anyone who enjoys Sri Lankan and Indian cuisine!”

“Grade A!! Nice little water front spot and prices have increased from the last time we were there few months ago. Enjoyed our meal and coffee was delicious. Parking: you’ll be lucky to get one close by, took a while to find one and nearly gave up but found one just as we were about to drive off. Ordered Salmon Eggs Benedict $28.50 Bacon Eggs Benedict $27 Ice Coffee Frappe $8 Ice Chocolate Frappe $8 Mochaccino in a bowl $7.50 And soft drinks for $3”

“Owners are always friendly and welcoming. Can pretty much buy anything that you would at a supermarket.”

“Great friendly staff, good pricing compared to other stores in area.”

“Probably the best karaoke bar in Auckland! Awesome modern air conditioned rooms, clean tidy toilets. Nice friendly service and food was delicious. Only issue is we werent offered happy hour rates and only found out about it on google reviews and a random poster outside the women’s toilets. Also would be perfect if they paid $39.99 for YouTube premium as the ads were annoying and wasting our hour.”

“Nice mocha! Staff are very friendly. Home made bakery are amazing! Will definitely come back.”

“Visited by chance while visiting another store and pleasantly surprised with this hidden gem. Absolutely jammed packed with massive variety of India foods. Service was top notch and not too pushy. Well worth the visit.”

“Nav has provides the most exceptional customer service, always super friendly and unfailingly helpful. Prices are very reasonable”

“They have everything you need, from milk to lollies to pies! Great location if you’re passing by and extremely convenient!”

“The place is just a replica of BBQ nation outlet in India. First they serve you all the BBQ dishes (Unlimited) like Chicken, fish, prawn, pineapple and Kumara. They also serve fried fish and potato with sause. You can then go ahead and enjoy the buffet food which has Indian and continental dish (just one). Overall the experience was very amazing and great service. The food was delicious and restaurant beautiful ambient set up gives a very relaxed atmosphere while enjoy the soft music in background. But expensive but worth a try. Good for family and big groups. Try for Groupon voucher to get a good deal and save some bucks.”

“Good place to buy chicken in bulk or not, they also have other assorted meats available,good prices, nice couple owners.”

“Helpful staff! You mostly get everything you need. Plenty of car park. They have some cool tunes playing inside. Friendly check out people. I recommend this place for good products and good customer service”
