Food establishment in New Zealand

“The restaurant isn’t big, but it has a lot of charm. The food really surprised me — so delicious for the price! The owner is super nice and makes you feel very comfortable.”

“Always a great experience. My favourite is the steak with bone marrow crumble, it's a must try if you love steak. The plates are best shared and no matter what you order each dish will be an experience in itself. Being asian I care less about the decor when the food is this good, but the decor is inviting and relaxed.”

“This is the best Japanese restaurant on the north shore and that I have ever been to. The food is exceptionally good. The service is consistently wonderful and they always make sure you feel welcomed and happy. The staff are all amazing and the store is consistently clean and tidy. I love this store and the lovely staff who make my day every time I walk in. TLDR: Great food, Great cleanliness, Amazing service. 10/10, would give more stars if possible.”

“Juan’s a g! Go get a coffee from him. Such a rad new space. Solid kai, solid coffee and solid vibes”

“This place fulfilled my raging cravings for sushi and also do an impressive variety of hot dishes such as chicken katsu curry. The venue is super cute, tucked into Mahara Place and it warmed my heart to see they also sell mochi and bubble tea. Next time I will visit earlier in the day to capture all the varieties of sushi they have on offer, as I was quite late and a lot of things were understandably sold out. This place deserves 5 stars and regular business.”

“Absolutely one of the best hot pot experiences I’ve had! The food was incredibly fresh, with a great variety to choose from, and the prices were unbelievable. I went with my family of six, and we were all able to eat our fill for under $200—a fantastic deal! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the sauce station was clean and well-stocked. Overall, this place exceeded my expectations, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality hot pot meal.”

“the pani puri was absolutely amazing! Super fresh and full of flavour, definitely one of the best I've had in the area. The customer service was ok.”

“I ordered through Uber Eats and tried the takoyaki (octopus balls) and the gluten-free teriyaki chicken donburi. I was pleasantly surprised — everything arrived at the perfect temperature and tasted super fresh, from the tender meat to the crisp vegetables. The portions were generous, and the quality for the price is excellent. I was also really happy to see they offer several gluten-free options, which is a big plus. Definitely a great spot if you’re looking for fresh, flavorful food at a reasonable price.”

“Like the simple decor & peaceful ambience, staff are genuinely friendly, all 5 items we had were delicious, big portion and they all get served very fast almost at the same time as well. Vegan friendly.”

“Love this place, they had a great deal on 6 x Bottles French wine for $75 and there was a descent selection.”

kenko sushi favours a pan‑Asian comfort mix with clear flavours. Service stays present without fuss. Noodles arrive glossy and well seasoned. Plates offer plenty without weighing things down. A sensib...

“Delicious Pick Your Own Raspberries and Boysenberries ($4 entry + $18 per kilo)! They also sell real fruit icecream for $7.5 and a range of other products. Staff are very friendly (as is the cute dog). Now is a fantastic time to visit, though the blackberry season has finished. So much quality berries available! Highly recommend the experience if you're in the area.”

“Clean, tidy, well priced and tasty sushi. Was visiting from out of town and we went to a couple of other places that didn't look as nice so didn't stay, this one smelt and looked great as soon as we stepped in the shop. Will def visit again next time we are in town.”

“literally the cutest cafe i have ever been to in my LIFE the shaved ice is like unbelievably delicious and everything else looks so good too the staff are kind, friendly and welcoming i 100% recommend you come here !”

“Love this place. Best selection of everyday goods, staff are so friendly and helpful. No better dairy around”

“Wonderful local Whangaparaoa shop. The selection of cheese, licorice and now chocolate is very impressive. We love visiting this shop often to buy our cheese and chat with friendly stuff.”

“We came here from the Google reviews and we were not disappointed! Great value tasty breakfast and lovely service in a modern clean cafe.”

“Wandered in after browsing around the market today. Never been here before, but will definitely be going back again next time we’re out this way. The food was fabulous. Loved our meals; cheese omelette, mushroom croque and beef dish. Coffee was full-bodied. Big pot of tea for my mother in law (made her very happy) and the banana milkshake was fresh and yummy. Service was faultless. The couple on the table next to us were “complimentary regulars”. Perfect experience, thank you. 10/10 :-)”

“Presentation good cleanliness good price good. Fruits and verges are only a small portion of this store, it actually specialises in Asian grocery. Worth checking out”

“Sam and the team are fabulous. Great service, great coffee (this is the mug I bring most days for coffee). Highly recommend the cheese scones and pastries.”

“Popular place to get your coffee fix. Wouldn't hesitate to come back as coffees were great.”

“This restaurant is a hidden gem in Auckland if you want authentic Indian food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. The Chitali and Nikunj were great, and the setting had a very ethnic feel to it. The highlight and best part were the Australian Eggs Fried and Pani Puri. would like to go back. strongly advised.”

“Hong Kong cuisine with Vermicelli, Baked Rice, Sizzling Plate and Entrées. They also have Desserts and Drinks. Big portions and good value for money. The Baked Rice meals are good for sharing, as there are many choices and differentflavour sauce. Plenty of parking right outside and clean facilities.”

“Aladdin's cave of goodies tucked away behind a rather unassuming exterior. For a relatively small shop the range of spirits in particular puts many larger and better known shops to shame. Small but nice range of quality ports as well. Pricing is competitive. Definitely worth a visit.”

“I had such a lovely experience! The atmosphere was fantastic, and the food was absolutely delicious. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. I ordered some coffee and breakfast, and everything was cooked to perfection. Definitely worth a visit!”

“Best service from Shirley, hub for bus drivers, characters and old people sharing war stories. Food doesn’t mess around - large delicious portions and yummy cakes and sweets. Classic old school New Zealand spot.”

“This is by far the best sushi on the Kapiti Coast . Fresh, clean, well priced, and so so flavoursome. It was such a rare delight to find this sushi place with such a high standard of quality best of all it’s locally owned and operated.”

“Quaint wee place, lovely staff, coffee superb! Will definitely be back ☕”

“I totally endorse the positive comments. Sarah (or SJ as I now know her) may well be the best barista I have chanced upon. She simply makes the best coffee without question. Extremely efficient. Knows my name, knows my car, knows my coffee of choice. She knows where I am in the line. I don't have to order, I simply sit down, converse with her and it's all done. It's like being Norm on Cheers (for those of that dynasty). Absolutely brilliant. I travel from Lincoln just for the friendly face, fantastic service and good banter. I am now waiting for the batch of coffee and walnut muffins to greet me as I frequent the establishment once again ..”

“This is an excellent place to buy your natural health products from. The two ladies are helpful and professional in their attitude. Of course they stock a comprehensive range of product. Which they know well. I have consistently been here. Also My daughter visited the homeopath who is well experienced educated in his profession and was very helpful.”
