Restaurant in New Zealand

“My spicy seafood noodles was very tasty with large juicy prawns, squid & scallops. Priced a bit higher than street food/takeaway joints, it’s to be enjoyed seated dining inside the cosy traditional thai decor… Reminds me of how Thai restaurants used to feel… nowadays trendy canteen vibe is more common! Service is always casual & warm family style.”

“A favourite restaurant we like to return to. Lovely service and delicious food. The steak melted in the mouth, highly recommend. Wagyu tataki is a must. They also had yummy Halloween themed cocktails.”

“The Hunting Lodge is such a beautiful wedding venue. As a wedding photographer, I always love shooting here. The grounds are stunning year-round, and the sunsets over the vineyards are next level. There are several ceremony options, including right at the edge of the vines or beside the iconic Barn. I also love the vintage caravan bar, it adds such a fun, relaxed energy and looks amazing in photos! With their in-house wine, relaxed vibe, and versatile indoor-outdoor flow, The Hunting Lodge is one of the best winery venues in Auckland :)”

“Great little Irish Pub tucked away down a side alley in Newmarket. It was the perfect stop for a restful lunch and drink after shopping up a storm at the Newmarket mall. Great, friendly service. Meals were fantastic and reasonably priced. We enjoyed steak and the special of the day Beef Thai Salad. Will definitely stop in again!”

“I had an amazing dining experience at Asahi. The food was authentic and beautifully presented, with every bite bursting with flavor. The sushi was incredibly fresh, and the variety of dishes on the menu was impressive. The staff were attentive and friendly, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. If you’re looking for a true taste of Japan, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!”

“I recently hosted a function in the restaurant and was very impressed with the service as well as the quality. Nothing was too much to ask. The food was simply delicious! Thank you Jessica and Vincent for your hospitality.”

“Learned about this hidden gem from family and friends, and dropped by for lunch after picking up groceries. The chicken and squid karaage had the perfect balance of crunch and tenderness, while the egg and potato salad was a particularly inspired compliment. Loved the calm, cosy vibes of the premises, too - mix of indoor, shaded and outdoor seating available.”

“Great Japanese-style food with authentic flavors! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive. A fantastic dining experience overall!”

“We had a great time at Poco Loco. Great food and staff were very helpful. The croquettes are a must try! Must visit if you’re after authentic Spanish tapas.”

“Wow !! What a wonderful surprise today when we randomly selected Vino Vino for lunch on our day trip to Waiheke. Our random choice was due to the incredible views. From the start to the end the service, meal and attention was first class. We have been fortunate enough to eat at some incredible restaurants throughout the World and would have to rate this establishment right up there. The food was faultless with a perfect combination of ingredients.Connie and staff…congratulations.”

“I had a pleasant experience at this restaurant today. The beef and sushi was excellent, very flavourful and pleasant to the mouth. The service by Sophia and Lucas was excellent and commendable as they were extremely friendly. If you’re in the area i would highly recommend.”

“First waiter was a little clueless, but food was delicious and Caitlin Smith worth the wait.”

“Excellent restaurant and friendly staff. I don't bother leaving reviews but their chicken dish, Pollo Capri is out of this world. A flavour explosion. I am very impressed!”

“Ok i firstly need to admit, I'm not easy to please these days, as i find many places just lack in quality service and overall taste and flavour. I'm happy to report this place is really nice. Wonderful friendly service and excellent quality food. We had the twice braised beef, lamb ribs, pan seared beans, chips, money bags and beef dumplings. All dishes were just as they should be. The lamb didn't look that nice but the first bite changed all that with a lovely flame grilled flavor. We'll definitely be back for more.”

“Always good here. Friendly and good service. Can cater to big groups. Reasonably priced as well.”

“I've had two great meals here with friends over the last year (which is also how often I've been to Auckland over the last year lol), the Mussels are delicious! This time they had a new dessert on the menu, a Banoffee Pie, and it was stand out good!! 100% will order again if I'm back in Auckland. The staff are fantastic, really attentive and good at what they do, they make you feel like family. And they are so careful with dietary restrictions, we have a few coeliacs in our group and with everything on the menu being available as gluten free, they really enjoyed themselves, and the staff double check about the dietary restrictions to ensure no issues.”

“We celebrated our daughter’s birthday party at Raja’s India Restaurant, and it was such a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious, full of authentic Indian flavour, and the service was excellent — friendly, attentive, and professional. All our guests really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. The team made everything smooth and stress-free, which made the celebration even more special. Highly recommend Raja’s India Restaurant for family gatherings, parties, or anyone who loves great Indian food!”

“Hands down the best Malaysian food I have had in Nz. The roti was amazing!”

“Favorite vietnamese food! Spring rolls are delicious! Nice tender meat and cooked to perfection! Stewed beef rice is my absolute fave sooo yummy! pork on rice 10/10!”

“We had the Grilled Paneer Tikka, Goat curry, Tandoori Chicken, Dal Tadka and garlic naan . They were all very delicious and the service was excellent . I always come back here for Indian food.”

“Enjoyed a breakfast here on a Monday morning in an outdoor seating overlooking Oneroa township. Monday is a relatively quiet day on Waiheke without the weekend xrowds. The menu for breakfast and brunch was reasonably comprehensive and well priced. The restaurant was busy and frequented by locals which was a good sign”

“my go to for Vietnamese food!! beef pho is always tasty and flavourful! tried their chicken broth and its equally tasty!”

“Amazing food and service. Every dish we ordered was delicious and the service was impeccable. Thanks for an incredible evening and memorable food. Look forward to coming again ☺️”

On the plate at Ki Māha Restaurant Waiheke Island, the idea is classic fish‑and‑chips and well judged. Views add a quiet lift to the visit. Fish lands crisp with light batter and chips stay tidy. Music and pace keep a casual tone.

“This was the first time i have been here. I had the green curry and pad thai, it was absolutely delicious , both full of flavour and lots of chicken. The lady serving im guessing the owner was very friendly and definitely had me leaving thinking you now have a new customer I can't speak more highly of this place, highly recommend”

“Got take aways for six people. Yummy food with a great range of spice levels. Was ready on time and a great temperature. Will definitely be getting taken away again!”

“Just had dinner here and it was an amazing experience! The blonde hostess/waitress that served me was very bubbly friendly and patient!! The food was also brilliant, plated beautifully and came out quickly, I'll definitely be coming back here soon as it was one of the best eating experiences I've had!”

“My partner recently discovered this amazing place and, to our delight, we found out that the chef who owns it used to work at Higher Taste India down at Lambton Quay before it closed down. We were big fans of that place and felt saddened by its closure. We've been on the lookout for another delicious and reasonably priced Vegan Indian restaurant. Finally, we decided to give this place a try, and for lunch, I ordered the Vegetarian Manchurian with Basmati rice. The portion was more than generous, and the flavors were exquisitely balanced and exceptional. The experience was so delightful that we are already planning to make this restaurant a regular dining spot for us.”

“Absolutely love this place! Hands down the most authentic Japanese feed you’ll find in Wellington. I’m down in Welly every couple of months and Miyabi’s always a must-do for me, never disappoints. The food’s top-notch, and the service is just as good. Olivia’s been awesome every time — absolute legend. Cheers team, keep it up!”

“Great Pad Thai and Chicken Na Kai. Really good flavour in the Pad Thai. Excellent service when answering the phone and picking up the food”
