“Fantastic dinner with my sister on Friday night! Warm attentive service, but also not interrupted too often which was great as we were catching up. Food was very tasty and cocktails were refreshing! Pork belly and Beef takati were the favorites!!”

“So many options for both meat eaters and vegetarians! We ordered the misodare tofu and potato croquette curry and enjoyed both dishes. Wonderful flavours, good affordable price and decent portion sizes.”

“Delicious lunch at Biskit Cafe & Kitchen today. Service was good, food was served promptly, and staff were very friendly. Seems to be a favourite as the store was packed even on a weekday. As for the food, everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Portions were great. We had the Thai chicken salad, Seoul beef burger, and fettuccine. Overall, it was a delightful experience. Would definitely be coming back in the future. Would recommend if you're in the area.”

“Breakfast was delicious! And we love the outdoor Cafe dining experience. I had the SEB bagel breakfast and my companion had the brioche French toast.”

“Had lunch here over the weekend with our two little boys, the staff are so friendly, went out of their way to help us move when it started raining and super friendly to us and our boys. The food is amazing too! The Korean chicken was our fave. Highly recommend this place has the perks of being in the city without the hustle and bustle of pedestrians walking past.”

“5 stars all round, wonderful (fast!) service, beautifully presented food, affordable prices! Highly recommend!”

“Amazing customer service for our small group today & the food was fresh, plenty of & super delicious. We were so pleased to find a lovely airy cafe in this heat, where we could talk and have plenty of space to enjoy it all. We will be back.”

“A must go. This is now our second time and loved every bite of food. I had the pork katsu curry with rice and it was just simply delicious. If you’re having dinner in my Eden, please have it here.”

“For the price, outstanding. Huge plate of lamb rump and two skewers. Nicely done fresh veg. If you're unfortunate enough to start at the nearby Novotel, ignore their wretched restaurant and take a 15 minute walk to Green Lane Gastro Pub. Well worth it. My meal was lovely and every other plate I saw going out looked great.”

“I love this place! I was in Auckland for a 3 week time period and visited this restaurant on three different occasions. The staff is nice and the food comes to the table in a timely manner. The yogurt soju cocktail is a great option to share with friends. The King's Katsu menu item was my personal favorite and is great with either sauce option. It is also in a very good location in the CBD of Auckland and offers a place to eat during a day of exploring the city. Highly recommend it.”

“Very impressive food, fresh and great tasting, good size portions.. Really nice owners that take care of you No complaints”

“High streets best kept secret! Visit on a sunny day for a beautiful outdoor escape or a rainy one for a cozy coffee (the heaters / cover work wonders). Coffee and service is always 10/10, and the Bacon Benedict is always hits the spot. Love that they also support local businesses as well. Definitely visit if you’re looking for a cheap and cheerful brunch spot in the CBD.”

“I had a wonderful experience at this cafe! The interior and overall atmosphere were lovely, creating a warm and inviting environment. We tried the lamb pappardelle, market fish, and asparagus, and everything was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. For dessert, we had the crème brûlée and tiramisu. They were both great! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious meal in a beautiful setting.”

“Picked up a Cashew Chicken Noodle, a Sweet and Sour chicken with rice, a yellow curry with rice and some Spring Rolls for my family up from Dunedin today at WoknNoodle Mt Eden. They absolutely loved it. It fed 5 of us for lunch! Thanks Lee, your food always hits the spot!”

“Our first time dining at this restaurant and we were absolutely impressed with the food and service. Every dish we ordered was mind blowing, absolutely delish. The service was prompt and the staff were wonderful. Thank you we will definately be back!”

“The restaurant has a warm, cozy atmosphere that reminds me of Vietnam - simple, welcoming, and full of charm. It feels like a little piece of home. The service is excellent; the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, which really enhances the overall experience. The food is decent, with authentic touches, but there's still room for improvement. With a bit more refinement in flavor, the dishes could really shine. Anyways, i’m gonna come back to try more food options here!! Overall, it's a lovely spot worth visiting, especially if you're looking for a Vietnamese vibe and genuinely kind service.”

“Great food, service and atmosphere early Friday evening. Happy hour drinks are great value. Not been here for some time but will definitely be going again”

“We drove all the way from Orewa to Stonefield's for lunch here. Separate fryer for gluten free chips and chicken bites. Burgers were great. Only problem is we ate too much because it was all so good! Thank you from the Coeliac community!”

“This is our second timing dining at The Oyster Inn... and it once again did not disappoint! Our meals were amazing around the table... I was recommended the crudo and it was absolutely beautiful... followed by the Crayfish Linguine which was also fab! Around the table our group was super happy with all our meals and the drinks were pretty good too! But deserving of special mention, and I feel terrible for not catching his name, was our lovely Italian waiter. He honestly made it feel like we were dining with a friend as he was so helpful, fun and attentive! What an asset he is... thank you so much for a great evening!”

“The food was fantastic when we had our dinner here tonight! Great quality and quantity! And the staff were all very friendly! Thank you for a wonderful meal!! Would definitely recommend this restaurant. And it is family friendly :)”

“GREAT stop for amazing beers and good food. We like Stouts and IPAs and they didn’t disappoint!! Staff was super friendly. Absolutely would go again.”

“We come here almost every week. The staff are always very friendly and accommodating, the food is delicious and there are lots of options (both menu and cabinet items). There is a nice peaceful atmosphere with good seating options inside and outside. Can't recommend enough :)”

“A good place for beers after work, good selection of beers thar are regularly updated. Expect it to be busy if its straight after work, with it being quieter a couple of hours after. Don't forget to sample the beers if you aren't sure whether you like it, staff are helpful and knowledgeable”

“Been on my bucket list like forever, finally got to try it for the first time!! And oh my lord I should've come here earlier.... Food was great, staff awesome, coffee good. Had the scrambled tofu and it's so flavorful! Will definitely be coming back!”

“What a cool little bar. Locate the sign on the street and walk up the stairs. The entrance has no real sign, there is just a closed door and when opened reveals a funky bar. Cool atmosphere, would be great in winter on a cosy winter night but we enjoyed it on a hot summers night. Just stopped for one drink but wish we could have stayed longer.”

“Skinny sexy fries, iced choc, big fat sunday brekkie 10/10”

“Shout out to the crew who were working the lunch service 1/11/25. Good food, outstanding service. Conversational engaged staff, and even managed to sell a couple of us another drink without being in our faces about it. We'll be back, and I'll tell friends.”

“Crumpet is such a nice place for having a drink and small talks or deep conversations. The vibe of this place is so good and relaxing, especially with the candle on the table. However, when the shop is full of people, it is getting a little busy and noisy, but it still provides good vibes. For the crew at Crumpet, they are very knowledgeable in making the drink. We ordered a drink based on our own taste, and they made it so good! Overall, Crumpet is recommended!”

“The coffee and matcha are lovely, and I had a salmon toast that was perfect, with store made grains and nuts bread! The croissants were large and fluffy, we had the plain and the almond. The English muffin breakfast sandwich was delicious. The service was friendly and fast, while they were quite busy. Our large group sat at the only large table, but there is planty of seating inside. They havebread, milk, a few wines, and pottery for sale. Highly recommend!”

“I loved our food and experience at Origami in Wellington. We found this Japanese restaurant on TripAdvisor and I am so happy that we went to have dinner there! I highly recommend this place because everything was perfect. The atmosphere is nice, cosy, and modern with cute looking decorations and wall painting. The Japanese staff member was very cute and helpful at recommending dishes and teaching us about Japanese ways of drinking sake. And the food was very delicious! We had Tom Yum and Miso ramens and a dragon roll.”
