Restaurant in New Zealand

“Bunny chow order for a group lunch. Eight orders was easy to order and pick up on the day. Fresh soft loaf of white bread toasted with a generous filling of the curry. Happy team. Would do it again.”

“Baduzzi is so yum! Was greeted by a very friendly host and the service was very quick. The shift manager and our waitress were very helpful when it came to understanding the menu so we ordered all the tastiest items! We had the stracciatella for the appetizer with the venison meatballs, the garganelli lamb neck ragu and the maltagliati for the main. Amazing experience and would come back!”

““Located right on East coast Road, Royal Indian Cuisine is a gem! Their goat chicken is absolutely fabulous, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The staff members are very friendly and have a great nature, making the experience even better. A must-try for anyone who loves authentic Indian food!””

“Have lived just down the road for 2 years, so thought it was time to try out the local Italian joint. Grabbed a takeaway lasagne (made in less than 10 minutes), walked home (less than 5 minutes), and chowed down. Super moist, super yum! Will def go back and get Cabonara for my wife, plus will try out their canelloni :))”

“I bought this bathure chole today at lunchtime, and I’m absolutely loving it! It’s super soft, cozy, and comfortable—perfect taste . Love it So Yum Best in north shore. I have tried everything but no comparison at all. So yummy and completely Indain style what I was looking for.”

“Ordered a pizza and barata on Uber. Was blown away by the taste and then discovered a nice long black hair in the pizza. Aside from their terrible food hygiene, I couldn't fault the taste.”

“Great pad thai at Ruang Thong probably my favourite in Auckland”

“This is a nice and delicious Thai restaurant. I tried the slow cook beef cheeks and it was fantastic. A bit spicy but nothing I could handle (I’m Mexican). The side of Jazmin rice was very good and helped with the spiciness. They have Tuatara and Tiger beer on tap.”

“very nice dishes very tasty and big portions. I would go back if you need a meal in the way because its also fast. Also very nutritious has good veggies and even uses real ginger. Loved it. The atmosphere is simple nothing special, but you get nice and good portions.”

“We had a delightful dinner at Siamese Doll recently. The flavours were amazing, portions were generous, the service was attentive without being overbearing. We had 2 entrees, 4 mains and a round of drinks for $60 a head, which I thought was great value. Great to see a busy restaurant on a Wednesday night! They also dealt with my daughter’s nut allergy seriously and respectfully. We’ll definitely be back again soon!”

“It's been a while since I have been to this restaurant although I have had some good takeaways from it. The meal last night was of an excellent quality , with good friendly service. I continue to rate this as one of the best Japanese restaurants around. I will be back.”

“Wow, just Wow! Food was absolutely amazing. The ambiance and service was amazing too. We celebrated my daughter’s birthday and they even turned down the lights to sing happy birthday. We will definitely be back to try some of the other dishes. Thank you for a beautiful night out. Highly recommend.”

“From the moment we stepped through the doors we were warmly welcomed! The customer service is exceptional. Food was excellent. Overall an amazing experience and would definitely return!!!”

“I love this place! Really good food and service. Prices are reasonable, too. There's not really a downside, but if you're seated in the separate booths in the hallway, you lose some of the atmosphere, but if you're looking for some privacy, that's the spot. 5 stars!!”

“Nice, simple but delicious food. Possibly the best value Japanese meal in Auckland. The service was excellent, and the owner was friendly and welcoming. This will be our regular Japanese restaurant. The food was so good I forgot to take pics of the rest of the meal.”

“Have had the lunch deal a couple of times and find it unbeatable for value”

“Authentic Yakitori bar in Auckland, you must try the prawn with pork, it was juicy and delicious!”

“My wife and I dined here for our wedding anniversary. We opted for the late lunch and went with the 9 course Winter Feast menu. I can only say that the food was fantastic and would be hard pressed to pick which was my favourite. I am not really a desert fan, but the chocolate mousse and the souffle were next level. Staff were exceptional and gave a good briefing on each course. I will definitely be visiting here again.”

“W organised our Wedding party private function at Rosanna's on the 24th of September and we had a blast. The space is great, with a nice leafy outdoor/indoor flow. The team was fantastic, lovely and very professional, and let us do pretty much anything we wanted in terms of layout, decoration and food. And the food was delicious. We really recommend this place for anyone looking to host an event, the location is central, easy to park around and excellent value for pricing. And the fact they are dog friendly is such a plus. Thank you so much!”

“Owner of the restaurant is very friendly and customer service oriented. We had a booking on Sat night, restaurant somehow messed up our booking. Instead of turning us away, the owner apologies and worked out a plan to have us seated at the back. Even gone to a step further and shouted dinner for our birthday boy. Very much enjoyed our experience here, and will be back. Thank you.”

“One of the best restaurants in Auckland for Mediterranean cuisine. Made fresh, the meat dishes actually taste fresh. Don’t expect some fancy interior or fine dine but defenitely some of the best tasting meal you can have. It’s best to go as a group as the serving portions are very generous. Also the best naan (bread) is done here. Been there twice (lunch and dinner) and will surely revisit again”

“The food is great and the service is so quick and friendly. Love the lamb here. Lunch specials are a great value for money. It’s highly consistent and the portion size is decent. It can get very busy during peak lunch hours so best to make a booking especially for a larger group. Highly recommended !”

“We had the Rumi special. It came with chicken, lamb mince and beef kebabs. The meats were super tender and flavourful. Would come again!”

“Okay just get two dishes. Samsun jjajjangmyun (seafood version of the black bean noodle) and chapsal tangsooyook (fried pork with sweet and sour source but the chapsal (sticky rice) version . We got the smaller size this day. These are our go to. We have tried some of the other dishes but these two are worth it!”

“Great service and relaxing atmosphere. The drinks were delicious and nicely presented. The food is very well executed with tonnes of flavour. The standout was the pork belly with a wonderfully crispy skin and a sweet/savoury jus. The bombe alaska was also another great dish, with a well balanced berry compote, ice cream and a smokey meringue. The owners and staff really put in an effort in the restaurant experience and it shows! We’ll be back for sure.”

“A group of 4 of us had a wonderful long lunch with Natalia and Karl and the Engine Room team. I think we shared just about everything on the menu and it was all superb, as was the service and wines”

“Super nice steak if you want to treat yourself. I found the service was a bit slow but the food was top notch. They show you the cuts before you order which is really handy as if you are not an officialdo then it is not clear what you are going to get. Order you mains, sauce and then side. You are talking about $100-$150 per person by the time you include drinks and sides. The meat was super tender and glad we came. We went on a Thursday and it was busy, with people sitting outside. Well worth a visit and the food quality of food is excellent.”

“Delightful! Memorable, and worth going back again and again! The staff here are so nice, so humane, friendly and caring. Food is absolutely remarkable; their sauces are so unique and really mouth-watering. My go-to is the wings & chips with the nice & spicy sauce (it plays so nicely with the blue cheese dip that comes with it). Top hidden jewel in NZ.”

“I had no idea that Sals now does Hawaiian pizza! Had to go and try at my local Sals store in Wynyard Quarter and it was awesome! Lovely thin pizza bases and the toppings are top notch. Highly recommend any Sals Pizza store to everyone. James Ashwin Kakapo Business Sales”

“Great authentic tasting Thai food. Spicier than your usual neighborhood restaurant, closer to what we've had when we visited Thailand. A bit cramped for larger groups, but for 4 or less a great spot.”
