Restaurant in New Zealand

“Unreal brunch spot, chicken cheese melt reminds me of prime Fortnite days, simply perfection. Never been more of a brunch man than I am right now. Top stuff”

“We went here only once, during our quest to try all 100% vegan spots in Christchurch, but definitely not because of the food or coffee quality. In fact, the breakfast we had, (Pancakes and Big Brekky) was absolutely delicious. The coffee was flawless, too! I wish we would have had more time to try the asian dishes, as well. Next time!:)”

“We’ve had the BEST pizza in NZ here so far! It's a lovely restaurant with a unique history and good food. It's a must-visit when in Lincoln. Be aware that they’re not open every night.”

“Really cool place & the bar had a great atmosphere. The people running the venue were lovely and very helpful. It is by a main road but great value for what you get and conveniently close to the airport.”

“Great coffee and scones. They have an interesting history. Friendly.”

“A very unique café with an internal garden that creates a small indoor sanctuary. There’s also a designer clothing store right next to it, adding to the charm. You’ll need to book in advance if you want a good spot, as it can get quite busy on weekends. I’ll try to come early next time to fully enjoy the atmosphere. The coffee was decent.”

“We went out to a recommended restaurant for dinner, and the experience was wonderful. The waitress was exceptionally warm, gentle, and welcoming. The dishes take some time to be served since everything is prepared fresh, but it is absolutely worth the wait. For starters, we ordered: – Smoked Burrata with strawberries – beautifully presented and incredibly tasty. – Wild Mushroom Gyoza, served with sesame sauce, chili oil, and an Asian-style salad. An excellent dish, with perfectly steamed dumplings. For the main courses, which are the restaurant’s signature dishes: 1. Fish of the day – salmon, served tender, delicate, and absolutely delicious. 2. Braised Beef Cheek – slow-cooked with miso and sweet potato purée. The dishes were outstanding, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. There is both visual elegance and exceptional taste in every plate. Of course, we couldn’t leave without dessert. We ordered the pudding, which is their signature dessert, and it was excellent as well. We enjoyed the meal so much that we will definitely return to enjoy this wonderful food again, clearly prepared with great care and passion by the chef.”

“Such a gorgeous place ! Such lovely people. Drinks were great, food was great, service was great. Love the decor. Cosy relaxed vibe such a sunny garden at the back loads of plants 100% make this your morning coffee spot. Came here everyday while we were staying. Lots of vegan / vegetarian options and substitutes too.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely outstanding! Purple Weka Café is hands-down one of the best spots in Christchurch. The coffee is consistently excellent, smooth and perfectly made every time. The food is generous, fresh, and full of flavour – real Kiwi-style portions with that homemade feel. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with staff who go above and beyond to make you feel at home. Whether it’s a quick coffee, a hearty breakfast, or a relaxed lunch, this place delivers every single time. A true local gem – can’t recommend it highly enough!”

“Love this place. The food is freshly made the coffee is very well made and the staff are very friendly. The chef Ryo know what he is doing. The food is tasty beautiful and down to earth. It is not expensive especially for the size of the portions. The coffee was smooth and very nice. Definitely worth a visit even if it means a detour.”

“The food was lovely, we went specifically to hear the live music and have a few nibbles with our drinks. I am very critical when it comes to squid and what arrived on my plate was cooked to perfection. I loved the live music supplied by the Jinx Duo, the atmosphere they created was fun and good easy listening.”

“I love a good pan pizza but don't like the quality of the big fast food brands. I'm so glad we have Bee Pizza in our new neighborhood as they are delicious! Packed with flavor, good toppings, and value for money.”

“Sushi is yummy! Service is great, nice place to have a nice and quick meal!”

“Amazing team, great food delicious, and well-proportioned, sauces were on point definitely recommended to family and friends”

“The pizza was absolutely delicious and was a delight on my tongue, the people who work here are delightful and so lovely!”

“Great food, and very welcoming staff. We had the best butter chicken and their naan tasted super authentic. Overall amazing experience. Highly recommend.”

“Amazing food and great service at Indian Roots! The flavours were authentic, and the staff were warm and welcoming. Highly recommend for anyone craving quality Indian cuisine.”

“Just had a great meal at Saket, our first time since the refit. They have done a great job feels so much bigger and the seats are so comfortable. Excellent food and now excellent dining experience. Highly recommend.”

“Came in while wondering what to have for dinner Ended up getting the chicken dhaba after the young man working there recommended it i asked for Punjabi style as i know the flavour are so much more intense i was amazed at how amazing it was especially with chipati to dip in it Value for money”

“The Best Indian Dining Experience! I recently visited Roti Chai and had an absolutely phenomenal experience. This is easily a five-star review, primarily because of the incredible food and the truly outstanding service. The Indian cuisine here is nothing short of amazing. I particularly loved the Lamb Biryani—it was aromatic, perfectly spiced, and rich in flavor. The Lamb Korma was equally delicious, featuring tender meat in a wonderfully creamy and complex sauce. What truly elevated the meal was the warm and attentive service. Everything was fast, efficient, and the entire staff was super friendly. The manager, Anil, along with the rest of the team, provided the best service ever. They were genuinely attentive and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. If you're looking for delicious Indian food paired with exceptional hospitality, look no further than Roti Chai. Highly, highly recommended!”

“Went at this lovely South Indian restaurant for dinner last night, we ordered Samosa chat as entree, mysore masala dosa, cheese dosa and plain dosa for mains. All the food is absolutely delicious and the dosa is very crunchy which I love the most also the coconut chutney and red chutney are delicious. Must try dosa from Chanakya one of the best in town highly recommend. There are sitting area in the restaurant but very limited. Don’t forget to book the table cause it’s always busy and hard to get table for dine in.”

“Was recommended this place by a freind, it had been playing in my mind to order here as I had tried their lard about three years ago and it was average as. Nonetheless I ordered. We were told 40 mins. We waited some more. With a 40 minute wait you’d expect to walk in and have mutlple chefs gone but no. There was one. I walked in the store and got the food. After a brief and frisk drive home, the smell of this takeaway wofting into my nostrils had me readily for a goon. I then got home. One sip of the Panang curry, One bite of curry puff, one tear of spare rib. I knew I’d hit a gem! Ken oath legends This Thai place is a keeper!”

“Absolutely great service, quick and tasty food. Even scored 2 free cans of drink as it was hot weather. Highly recommend!!”

“So good, nicest Thai food I've had in a while! Lovely service too. As a vegetarian, they specially made my pad thai for me to have tofu instead of meat which was a really nice gesture. :)”

“This is one of my favorite Thai places in canterbury. If you live outside of lincoln, it is worth the drive in to try this place. I have had the pad Thai twice and the crispy fish which comes highly recommended. Don't be afraid of the spiciness, get the medium! Beef cheek curry is to die for.”

“Tremendous food and excellent service. Only thing was that as an American Diner there should have been filtered coffee, then I found it. Absolutely perfect”

“Very good dining atmosphere. Had The sushi train experience. Wish there could be more sashimi variety that will be amazing.”

“I recently dined in with friends for lunch, and it was an amazing experience! I tried the Hokkaido Miso Tonkotsu Ramen, and I have to say, it’s an absolute must-try. The rich, flavorful broth and perfectly cooked noodles made for an unforgettable dish”

“Oh my goodness! This hidden gem of a Japanese eatery is an ideal spot for a lunchtime visit. They craft various delightful Dons that are not only visually stunning but also bursting with delicious flavors. Each dish is freshly prepared and elegantly presented in distinctive bowls, providing a rich cultural and culinary experience.”

“A generous portion was provided at a reasonable price, and the store was clean and tidy, perhaps because it was opened not long ago. Friendly staff, variety of toppings, and delicious food. I think that generous portion than the other shop. I had a satisfying meal with my family and absolutely recommend it.”
