Restaurant in New Zealand

“Our go to for chinese takeaway. We love their Salt Pepper Pork and Wonton Noodle Soup. The owner and staff are always friendly and welcoming.”

“Friend recommended coming here last Thursday, lucky he did, what a great experience. Sat in front of the kitchen so we could watch our food being prepared. Ordered osyters, tomato salad, fried chicken, korean fried rice, beef shin and a couple of deserts. I must say, the fried chicken was definitely the stand out dish with the fried rice coming in 2nd. Chicken was juicy, tender and super crunchy but not oily at all! Too bad it was a special for the night and not on the main menu. Staff are awesome too, they were willing to chat while preping the food, headchef even came to have a bit of a chat with too. Booked a 2nd night for dinner on the spot, but unfortunately couldn't make it. Will definitely be going back.”

“Great meal at Noble Rot. Scallops were fresh and delicate, the proteins were cooked perfectly, and the sauces were rich and well-balanced. The crispy-skin fish was a standout. Some dishes leaned a bit classic and could use more colour or acidity, and the dessert felt slightly heavy, but overall a very well-executed, enjoyable dinner.”

“What a lovely place. We’re passing through Welly and with our ferry delayed we looked for a spot for brekkie, picked the best place. Service so friendly and they were accommodating to our little Maltese girl. Delicious pastry and food in general.”

“Absolutely lovd Leroys! They've got a spacious outdoors area with a chill but fun vibe inside. The food is incredible, and they have a great tap list with plenty of options. The bar staff are super friendly and always go above and beyond... Shout out to Poppy! There's also a pool table and a nifty upstairs spot which I heard is perfect for events. Best spot in town by far!”

“This place never fails to impress and satisfy me! Well worth the 20-30 min drive it takes to get there from Porirua. This has the best Fish n Chips I have ever had, which has the best cheeseburger I have ever had. Love how fresh the fish and seafood is. So succulent! I have introduced this place to so many friends and family. This has now become a family fave. Service here is super quick and super friendly! It is located across from the beach, quirky bars, restaurants, and cafes. Parking may be a wee bit hard during peak but we managed to find parking at Bunnings across from there. This place is a must for Oka/Raw fish lovers and a must eat for everyone!”

“This hot pot is really delicious. There is a very wide variety of dishes.”

“I had the Wagyu Rib which was superb with Jasmine rice. I also had the ice cream for desert which had ginger and pepper flavor and topped with thin strands of a very light pastry. Both 5 out of 5.”

“We have been going to Polo for the last years with good reason. The coffee and kai are consistently delicious and the service friendly, efficient and comfy. Today we were back for a for brekky, when before the first bite our son started being sick and we quickly had to get out of there. Briar and the team were amazing, they quickly pulled together what we needed, no judgements, and kindly packed up what was left of our order. Thank you team.”

“A superb park, well laid out with great planning. The planting attracts birds of all types including the rowdy Tui. Great water features. Plenty of spacious parking and electric car charging posts. Toilets suffer from vandals but usable”

“The Hyderabadi dum biryani is a must try here. It feels very authentic and feels like from Hyderabad. The mutton haleem is very special here and one of the only places it is available in Wellington. All other Hyderabadi style curries are delicious. My wife liked it a lot as well.”

“Very generous portions, delicious, and top class service. Really nice experience. Plenty of space between tables too and very reasonable pricing.”

“Really good people to talk to and excellent service, the food is perfect everytime I visit, I'm a happy customer”

“Absolutely excellent food at good prices! The inside of the cafe is not super cute but it's worth it.”

“Oddfellows has consistently good coffee, and a delicious selection of cabinet food. Everything I have tried from here has been fantastic, they never disappoint! Having a gluten free scone or similar baked item would be an asset”

“What a great experience. Very cool barman who presented us with hot water bottles upon arrival, helped us choose a table and put the heater on above us. He looked after us so well and because of him we stayed a lot longer than we had intended and spent a lot more than we would have.”

“The sushi rice was perfectly prepared, and the tonkatsu sushi was surprisingly delicious and remained delightfully crunchy despite being on display in the afternoon. Additionally, the discount offered after 3pm is a great deal. If only the wasabi and ginger could be freshly made from scratch, it would elevate the overall dining experience.”

“The pizza here was really good—fresh, tasty, and loaded with toppings. The crust was just right, not too thick or thin. The staff were polite and the service was quick. A nice place to grab a pizza with friends. Would happily visit again!”

“Seoulful tastes, Seoulful vibe! Tried the chicken on rice, gimbap, tteokbokki, and pork cutlet — just like home. Clean flavours, tidy presentation, spotless kitchen, and genuinely kind service. Korean comfort done right in Christchurch.”

“Delicious dinner beautifully presented, Earl has always been our top 5 restaurant choice to dine out in Christchurch! A restaurant that can’t fault their foods would definitely recommend and return to samplings more of their other new dishes in Spring season!”

“If you're craving authentic Indian flavours in Christchurch, Saffron Spice in Hornby is the place I keep coming back to,and for good reason. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with the comforting aroma of spices and a team that treats you like family. The ambience is relaxed yet vibrant, perfect for a casual dinner or a celebratory feast. What sets Saffron Spice apart? Consistency. Their biryani is a personal favourite,fragrant, generous, and packed with flavour. And if you're into heat, the vindaloo delivers a satisfying kick without overpowering the dish. Service is always prompt and friendly, with staff happy to guide you through the menu or tweak spice levels to suit your taste. It’s the kind of place where you feel looked after, not just served. Whether I’m grabbing a quick takeaway or settling in for a slow meal with friends, Saffron Spice never disappoints. It’s my go-to spot in Hornby when I want food that’s bold, comforting, and unmistakably Indian.”

“Amazing food, fast service, friendly staffs. We enjoyed dining at Mama Ree very thoroughly.”

“The food was DELISH! Loved the different little tasters we got in our bento box’s, all so succulent and divine. We always stay at hotel 115 and I’ve never been here before, It’s good to know it’s nice and close and I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Christchurch for work. Such a cute little place and the staff are lovely. The only thing id recommend, is they need The lights to be a little softer while dining, would make it a different vibe again if they were dimmed. But that’s isn’t a deal breaker of course haha!”

“The food here was so delicious I had to come back twice during my stay in Christchurch. I ordered the Grill Beef on Rice, along with a Chicken Teriyaki Bun (50 cents of the sales of the buns goes to the Arts Centre). I left feeling nice and full. Give this place a visit if you're the mood for some good Asian food at a good price.”

“Hot, fresh, delicious, incredibly affordable. Best place in Christchurch, hands down. Staff are so lovely too!”

“We were seated promptly and given food and drink menus. Both of us opted for the beef fillet, one rare and the other medium rare. They were done to perfection, melted in your mouth and were tasty. The accompanying vegetables were also first rate. There was a good wine list , although not all were available by the glass. My glass of Cabernet Sauvignon was a standout. We thought the atmosphere and service were great and would we would return here to eat.”

“I had a great experience at this restaurant the other day. The interior is both elegant and inviting, creating a sophisticated ambiance. We visited for lunch as a group of 8 including locals who are regulars here. Many of us opted for the highly recommended their “Chefs pie”: Beef & Ale Pie, a generous portion of flaky pastry filled with savory beef,buttery cabbage, creamy mashed potatoes, and rich gravy. It was a delicious and satisfying choice. The other dishes ordered by our group were equally well-received. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome. We'll definitely be returning to this wonderful restaurant.”
