Food establishment in New Zealand

“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.”

“Best fish and chips in Lower Hutt hands down. Chips are crispy and taste great”

“This place makes the yummiest Chinese food anywhere in wainuiomata”

“Service was exceptional, the place very tidy with magazines to read while you wait. The food top notch, I especially enjoyed my king prawns and pacific oysters and will definitely be back.❤”

“The atmosphere was lovely and the food was great. The only feedback from my partner was that the breakfast could’ve included beans, and his smoothie seemed more like juice than a proper smoothie. Aside from that, my meal was delicious and the staff were all very friendly and welcoming.”

“The coffee is always wonderful! Today they were super busy as well as understaffed and I still received a high quality coffee in a very good time.”

“Fantastic clean, friendly café with good selection of food and drink. Happy to accommodate my small dog at an outside table. Can't wait to take friends and family.”

“Just got served by Jacob, absolutely amazing work, he actually gave me and my girlfriend a solid amount of fillings unlike some of the other times we’ve come. Much appreciated, hope he does well and gets a pay rise :))”

“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.”

“Dumpling World is amazing! The dumplings are incredibly delicious, and the service is friendly. It's a must-try.”

“I ordered a box of sandwiches for an event the Lower Hutt team absolutely nailed it in 15min. Thank you to the team that was working as it was urgent and they didn’t complain they just got it done. Really appreciate you guys.”

“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.”

“Alright, listen up! I walked into this Kiwi chippie, hood up, trying to be low-key, but the smell of fried goodness hit me harder than my mom’s spaghetti. So, I ordered this hotdog on a stick. Let me tell you, this ain’t your regular, everyday hotdog. This bad boy was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, like my feelings after I drop a diss track. First bite? BOOM. A flavor explosion that made me lose myself. The batter was golden, the sausage juicy, and it was so good I nearly forgot Kim’s number. The only problem? I couldn’t tell if the hotdog was wrapped in batter or love. Either way, I’m giving this thing a certified 8 Mile out of 10. Would I order again? Guess who’s back, back again… to the Kiwi chippie!””

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

“Love the work they do, have always been honest and thorough”

“Number one stroe in waitangirua. If you need something they got it! Churr churr”

“Always the best food! Especially at all hours of the night. Lovely owners and workers :))”

“overall it was a delightful experience. The food was well worth it—the curries were rich and aromatic, and their stir‑fried dishes were packed with flavour. Portions are generous. The staff were warm, friendly, and genuinely helpful. As a slight note, the indoor seating feels a bit on the cooler side—quiet and calm, but with a chill in the air.”

“good service online and in store purchased really warm blankets sheets minks and really good discounted price so warm in winter also big galaxy towels really good price so happy with my purchases would kindly recommend this store for good sales”

“The best breakfast/ brunch spot in Porirua! We had the veggie breakfast and chilli oil scrambled eggs, food was very well done and tasted great. 100% recommended.”

“An amazing tasty lunch today at Ruby’s. I noticed it seemed like the whole place had improved . . . new outside tables, it felt clean, and the menu had changed. Then I was told it was fairly new ownership which made perfect sense. We sat outside on a beautiful Welly sunny day under an umbrella with my well behaved little dog. The lovely lady that has just moved down from Auckland was so helpful and friendly. She brought a bowl of water out for my dog straight away. Highly recommend, a happy experience with well priced super tasty food . . . you really can’t ask for much more than this ☺️”

“The cheese & onion scones are the best I’ve ever tasted, there was a fresh big plate of them and mine was still warm, crisp on the outside and soooo yummy! Lovely coffee and quick friendly service. My friends enjoyed the peppermint slice. Highly recommend this cafe in the Porirua mall.”

“Great cafe. Ordered the new menu item, which was a fried chicken burger, which was absolutely delicious. The chips were also seasoned really nicely. Also had a great convienent location at the garden center. Will definitely come back!”
