Food establishment in New Zealand

“Very nice and polite staff and the owner carefully explained the hotpot. Hotpot was pretty good and the mixture of the sesame paste was great! This store lives up to its name.”

“I'm on a quest to find the best cheese scone in Christchurch. Someone recommended me this cafe, and let me tell you.... this is my sixth scone for review and you are now top of my list! Truly the best cheese scone in Chch. It's really the flavour that makes it so good. I think a lot of places focus more on texture which is not a bad idea, but it's gotta be well rounded. This scone has it all. I'd love to come back and try the gluten free one. Coffee was also amazing. The two ladies, one on till and one on coffee, were both incredible as well and had such lovely vibes. 10/10 experience”

“I had a wonderful time. I enjoyed a hibiscus tea with the Bubble And Squeak for breakfast.”

“Ordered our hot chocolate. We were going to get a cheesescone each, but there was only one left. So decided against it. Got our hot chocolates, just as we were leaving a fresh bat h came out. We should have asked but didnt. Excellent service and hot chocolate was one of the best we have had.”

“Nice pizza, friendly staff and warm atmosphere. We made a reservation at the first table, and only needed 20 per person after the discount.Lasagna is very delicious.”

“Amazing food and excellent service! We ordered naan, rice, and two types of curry — everything was full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The naan was soft and fresh, and the curries were rich and aromatic. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Highly recommended — I’ll definitely come back again!”

“Our new go to local, food always fast, nice substantial. Staff are awesome and attentive to requests and needs.”

“Fantastic food and highly respectful wait staff. I loved the Bombay chicken... It was absolutely out of this world. The best part is that you can get Uber eats from this establishment! For the best curry in Christchurch I would say that Corianders is the place to go. They have a superb range of gluten free options.”

“Beautifully tender lamb korma.. mouth watering. Delicious. Plus Sukh the manager was a legend and the rest of the staff were wonderful. Thanks guys, will recommend!!”

“I dined here with my partner for dinner and from start to finish we had outstanding service. Very friendly and welcoming staff with warm smiles. Our food wasn’t rushed out which we loved including not rushing our our main after entree. The food was amazing! One of the best we have had and so nicely presented. I highly recommend this restaurant!”

“Awesome place for a meal and few beers. Great staff and service. Very homely and lovely food. Enjoyable evening.”

“Who would think an airport hotel would provide one of the finest dining experiences we had in 2 weeks of travelling Southland? Attentive personal service from a gorgeous host. Perfect lamb dukkha and fish. Finished off with dessert. Leaving NZ very satisfied thank you Chef and hostess. If you don’t stay here - drop by for dinner.”

“Had some tasty donburi for dinner here the other day on a stretch of road without many other great options. Good food good value. I had the chicken numban and the wife had aburi salmon. We split an agedashi tofu.”

“Really lovely staff. Although short staffed on the night we were there, they kept us well informed and were very accommodating. Food was yummy.”

“We had roast duck noodle soup for take away. The chef had all ingredients ready waiting for my arrival. He started putting everything into take away box as soon as he knew I was there to pick up. This was to preserve the crisp of the duck skin and limit the noodles drying up the soup. Staff was extra careful in packing to prevent soup leaking. The interior design of this restaurant is simple yet traditional Chinese. The duck noodle soup was tasty and authentic, I'm sure it would be even better if we dined in. Still very good after coming back many times.”

“Very yummy Chinese food best in the Papanui area by far ,always such nice service even the odd freebie chucked in to highly recommend :)”

“Authentic Taiwanese street food, good menu selections, really nice chilly sauce. Taiwanese owner operated. Love all the dishes we ordered, quick table service. Good bubble tea with well cooked bubbles, the largest size is humongous!!. Nice little shop. Moderate pricing. Highly recommend!”

“Gorgeous! Found some absolute gems here. It's a big store so take your time, great quality stuff here!”

“Great pub to have a catch up and have a cold beer”

“Valentines Hornby is our favourite place to eat! We go at least once a month and cannot fault it. The food is fantastic - a great variety, very fresh, always beautifully cooked, and nicely presented. They often experiment with new dishes but you can rely on the favourites to always be there. The food is always hot and constantly replenished, and there is a great salad bar too. The dessert is amazing! Such a variety, including a chocolate fountain and ice cream machine. I love all the small portion mousses, meringues, cheesecake, hot dishes and the sides, like berries, cream and sauces. The lemon roulade is so good! The staff are very friendly and helpful and the service is great too. We cannot praise this place enough - do yourself a favour and check it out! Great value for money too.”

“Repeat customer. Love that there are a handful of vegan options. Service is always so prompt. Requests are not a fuss. The loyalty card is appreciated.”

“Definitely hits the spot. Have ordered a couple of times now through Uber eats and really enjoyed the food both times. Great, customisable rice bowls with hearty portions and delicious ingredients. Would recommend”

“It's a local pub. Saturday is the best to visit around 8 pm. Good live band. All friendly local crowed. Good service.”

“Pool table inside operated by 2$ coins per game. Sitting area outside. Perfect for a beer and a game.”

StockXChange Bar & Grill keeps things simple, bistro‑style and focused on flavour. A family‑friendly feel comes through naturally. Service stays present without fuss. Value feels fair for the quality.

“Extremely satisfied with my order. The team at Cashmere Domino's were very friendly and quick to answer my call. The presentation of the pizza was well spread and the portions were perfect. Highly recommend checking them out. Cheers.”

“Great place for a frugal meal. Nice atmosphere, tasty food, at decent prices, friendly staff”

The kitchen at Shanghai Restaurant takes a burger‑led path and lets the food speak. A sensible spend for the spread. Portions are generous yet well judged. Breakfast plates are tidy and satisfying. Co...

“I took out of town visitors and we were not disappointed. Food was top notch, service excellent. Tables well spaced to allow conversation. A very enjoyable evening. Thank you team.”

“I just really enjoy one piece of fish on nights I can't be bothered cooking. Always cooked to perfection. Great chatting to others while waiting. Nice and clean.”
