“There's always like 50 of 'em behind the counter churning out these orders and they always hit the nail on the head. I always stick to a spicy fillet burger with extra mayo. no complains there. Actually if I'm being honest the success rate would be like 9/10. With like 1/10 times u just have to chew it in silence hoping next time it'll be a lot better. And it always is.”

“The perfect curry for on the way home after a big job. I ordered mine hot, I'm sure it was euro-hot which was perfect. Thank the chef for me, yummy.”

“This is one of our favourite place for lunch. It is a small place and usually quite crowded. Be early and you will get your table. Though small but sitting was pretty comfortable. Service was friendly and the food was good. The servings were reasonable and the prices were affordable. If you like some simple Chinese food, this may be the place for you.”

“My first order from this branch (tonight) was delicious with fresh toppings and a perfectly made pizza base and sauces. It was made and delivered in under 20 minutes too. Highly recommend.”

“Friendly staff, house made food, reasonable prices and great atmosphere! I was very happy with my smoke salmon quinoa bowl with generous amount of smoke salmon, and very reasonable price for this!!”

“Great cafe. Lovely food & good coffee GAS FIRE IN WINTER- lovely & warm! 2 x Outside areas Recommended”

“I had the raw beef pho it was absolutely amazing. Huge portion and complimentary spices on the table side to mix things up. The staff had friendly service and I have already started recommending to friends and family. Thank you for running such a great place.”

“It’s once of those hidden gems. No fancy set up/decor, just delicious food, great price point and simple yet friendly service.”

“It's a standard format cafe. I got for one thing, my fave Katsu Chicken on Rice. Always an easy purchase. Place is clean and staff are always willing to help.”

“Second time buying the family tray and it didn’t disappoint. Especially the sweet and sour tasted so good it’s the best sweet and sour I’ve eaten”

“I absolutely love Japanese food, and Daruma Ramen is the best I’ve had so far in Auckland. We’ve been here so many times — it’s become our go-to place for dinner, and it never disappoints. The food is consistently delicious, authentic, and comforting. The service is always excellent, and I especially love the robot food server — such a fun and unique touch! The place itself is modest but very comfortable, which makes it even more welcoming.”

“Absolutely love this place! The burgers are always fresh, juicy, and packed with flavour — definitely one of the best burger spots around takapuna”

“What a great place to escape to sit in the sun or even inside. Coffee was awesome and had chicken panini and $27 big breakfast here which was very nice too. Kids play area to top off.”

“Had the most amazing breakfast here today, it was a special for fathers day, smashed avocado with apricot baked salmon on rosti. Fantastic! Coffee was great too, highly recommend, will be back. Best breakfast I've had at a cafe for a long time. Thanks!!”

“First time dining at Kareem Cafe with my colleagues, and it exceeded our expectations! The food was absolutely fantastic, and the prices were incredibly reasonable compared to other places. Plus, the menu had so many delicious options to choose from. We'll definitely be back – highly recommend!”

“Wonderful experience at Zana, humble polite and helpful staff, very knowledgeable!! Yummy food and great portion. Also, reasonable price. Right opposite to town center with plenty of free parking on street. The staff recommended great dishes and clean tidy place even during busy peak hours. The portion of plate is enough for two if you are not big eaters. Best Thai Halal place in Auckland!!”

“Always get a quick snack from here when in hurry. Crab salad is my favorite, so as sushi of the day. Convenient with ample car parking lot.”

“Good Home Takanini is a fantastic place to dine. The food was delicious, fresh, and full of flavour you can tell the chefs put real care into every plate. The portions were generous and definitely worth the price.”

“I ate here 5 times over the course of a year and the quality is consistent. I have a peasant's taste bud so I can't really judge it by that matric, so it's just good.”

“The Pizzas from Pizza Club are absolutely incredible. From familiar much loved favorites to innovative new variations. Gorgeous presentation, generous toppings, and delicious. Nothing bland. There is nothing standard and boring. Humble staff. The only caveat - prepare to wait beyond the time they allocate for preparation. It has been worth it - every single time.”

“Had an amazing birthday dinner here. Both cocktails I had (Strawberry Kiss & Pink Gin Spritz) were so delicious. Cheesy Garlic Pizza Bread was so yummy, and my sirloin main with truffle parmesan fries, peas, & gravy was one of the best meals I’ve had out in a while. Staff were very friendly too, & food & drinks all came out quickly (was a Monday night though!). Will definitely come back.”

“Best fried chicken around. I got the spicy chicken burger combo and 5 spicy wings. The food is all made to order so give some time for it to be prepped, it’s worth the wait. You can taste when food is reheated, has been sitting around or poorly made - this isn’t the case here. The spicy burger was juicy and succulent with fresh lettuce, onions, mayo and buns. The fried chicken wings were crunchy, juicy and spicy - not overly oily. Best I’ve ever had. Chips had a great seasoning salt on them as well. Portions might be on the smaller side for some, but I would rather spend money on good food instead of being disappointed with the quality. You pay for what you get and this is really good food! Will definitely be back to try the kebabs too!”

“I went here with my boss and coworkers. It’s one of the places my boss recommended. The soup looked really spicy but wasn’t as hot as it seemed, though it still had a nice, tingly heat on the tongue. The handmade noodles varied in thickness and had a chewy, satisfying texture. It was so delicious, I was really impressed! The combination of egg and minced meat was just the right amount. Even though I’m Japanese, I really love these noodles. It’s light on the stomach, so I truly love it! Thank you!”

“Great spot on Waiheke Island. We went for a quick trip and felt hungry. We decided to give the restaurant a try and oh boy - did we made the right decision. Food was absolutely incredible. Super friendly staff and overall great experience.”

“We’re so grateful Melwin—your exceptional service and warm hospitality made the perfect end to our evening. Highly recommend Chicking Takanini! Food was also hot, fresh and filling. I note the chicken pieces have decreased in size however your pricing remains the same so thats understandable. Thanks again!”

“big portion, lots flavour very nice place to go”

“OMG, I haven't been here in years but I pre ordered the 2 person special, chicken fried rice, wontons and sweet & sour pork. It was the tastiest Chinese takeaway we've ever had. There was no grease or fat. There is enough food for tomorrow night as well. I will be back!!!”

“First time visiting. It was so nice to meet the previous owner who is Ara-Tai Cafe in Half Moon Bay. The atmosphere is nice and it's not too far from home, so it seems like a great place to brunch. The food is delicious and I'm planning to bring a friend.”

“I came with my friends for the evening, and one of our orders was shisha, which was really amazing and had an excellent taste. We also ordered the chicken on rice, which was really delicious. We tried Arabic tea for the first time, and it was very wonderful and worth trying. The service was fast, took care of the customer and made them feel comfortable. Really, it's a great place to spend evening .”
