Food establishment in Porirua

“Had a really great coffee from here at the weekend. Nice and hot, just the right strength and really good flavour. Go check it out!”

“I must say Nandos Porirua has made the food so good, it felt like the original taste. Chicken was so moist and succulent, it just melted in mouth. Chips were addictive. Looking to try coleslaw next time to see if it has redeemed the same original taste. Thanks Margo for a great service. Although it longer than normal but it worth the wait.”

“Coming to this location for many years, frequently. Coffee is consistent in quality and easy to make customisations. Staff are always friendly and super quick. My go to order is the Iced Caramel Macchiato with Sweet Cream Cold Foam!!”

“Thanks Hell Porirua. The Pizza was Delicious and service was Great.”

“Compliments to the island lady that’s always on the mic at the drive thru. She was on today at 9pm and ALWAYS Provides the loveliest service. Not once have I seen her without a big smile and I’m here a lot. Love and blessings to her ❤️❤️❤️”

“This branch is a spacious haven with an abundance of tables and chairs, including high chairs, catering to various needs. Unlike other locations, it offers ample chairs and tables to comfortably savor your favorite pizza while dining in. The ambiance is inviting, making it an ideal spot for a relaxed and enjoyable meal.”

“Another day another cracking juice! There's a tall lad and a friendly younger girl that always make the best juice around. Need to try a smoothie but man the juice is too good. Always really clean even though they are busy busy. Better than the Lambton Quay one that one sttttinks”

“Always yummy - everything! The iced mocha was really good. The cheese (n bacon!) scone is delicious.”

“Always a great experience at Pizza Hut! The pizzas are hot, fresh, and packed with flavor every single time. I especially love the stuffed crust—cheesy, soft, and totally satisfying. The menu has plenty of options for everyone, from classic favorites to new creations, and the sides (like the garlic bread and wings) are just as good as the main dishes. Customer service is friendly and efficient, and orders are ready quickly, whether you're dining in, picking up, or getting delivery. Definitely recommend Pizza Hut if you're looking for a tasty, reliable meal that hits the spot. Great value and consistently delicious!”

“Polite service, good burger. Clean bathrooms even though it was lunch time in school holidays and quite busy. Always plenty of parking here.”

“This place gets a 5 star from us because of Koro. Koro’s customer service is amazing. During busy periods he still manages to make each customer feel valued. He runs a tight ship!”

“We’ve always enjoyed the high-quality, convenient daytime meals at Sushil’s Musclechef, but our first evening dining experience was something genuinely special. The evening service offers a more intimate and refined atmosphere, paired with a thoughtful menu that highlights Sushil’s unique culinary identity—blending cultural heritage and modern flavour in a way that feels deeply personal and original. We started with the pumpkin soup with coconut, rich and comforting, and the smoked chicken Caesar salad, fresh, vibrant, and beautifully presented. The mains were outstanding: the braised lamb shank was melt-in-your-mouth tender, infused with bold, soulful flavour, while the market fish was perfectly cooked and delicately seasoned. Dessert was a highlight—the chocolate fondant, with its warm molten centre and vanilla bean ice cream, was pure indulgence. We ended the night with extra hot oat flat whites, smooth and perfectly made. While the daytime menu brings quality and convenience, the evening experience feels crafted, personal, and elevated—a reflection of Sushil’s passion for food and hospitality. His presence and care make all the difference. A special experience worth repeating. We’ll definitely be back. A true local gem. Lalo Fiso”

“I had the pleasure of dining at this wonderful restaurant, and I must say, it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The restaurant boasts a tantalizing array of authentic Arabic kababs and a diverse selection of other mouthwatering dishes that truly transport your taste buds to the heart of the Middle East. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the kababs; they were perfectly seasoned and the meat was grilled to perfection, offering a blend of flavors and tenderness that was simply exceptional. Each bite was a journey through the rich culinary traditions of the region, leaving me craving more. What truly sets this restaurant apart, however, is not just the delectable food but also the impeccable service and the warm, friendly atmosphere. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and eager to make your dining experience memorable. They are more than willing to offer recommendations and provide insights into the menu, making even newcomers feel right at home.”

“We go there almost every week for lunch. Could these be the best burgers in Wellington region? The souvlaki wraps are amazing too.”

“#burgerporirua Mucho Crunch Birria WOAP So good. Hubby & I came to an agreement on 8.25/10. The Smashed Burger pattie was Very generous. Yum beefy consume. Bens Buns were really lovely. Great customer service. Serviettes needed! Thx. Highly recommend! Very generous here I felt having 4 heaters on. I loved the feel of the place”

“Not one to google reviews often, but I highly recommend this place! Great beer, chilled out atmosphere and the staff were super friendly. The food was great and had a great time. So a well deserved 5 star review which don't come often from me. Oh and it’s dog friendly! Huge bonus points!”

“Always a good cuppa from Aloha. We usually like getting either a cappucino or hot choccy or both. This place consistently does a beautiful hot choccy - the best I’ve had in Porirua. Also recommend trying the salted caramel donut in their cabinet - its divine! They also allow you to byo cups and have their own mugs for you to use to help with waste. To top it off, the cafe doubles as a small gallery that sells beautiful jewellery snd homeware.”

“As other's have said, they're is a great friendly feel in this cafe. We had never been before and chose to go for a Saturday bringing and chat. We both had The pancakes, I went for the net pancakes and my friend had the banana and bacon. These were easily the best pancakes I've had in the Wellington region and really left me happy.”

“Amazing experience for our Valentine's Day date! The set menu was excellent value and a stunning range of flavours. Good service and cozy atmosphere. Our only minor constructive feedback is we weren't aware of the set menu until we arrived. It wasn't an issue for us, however being proactively informed beforehand would have been appreciated :-). Thanks for an excellent meal - we'll be back!”

“A genuine gem of a restaurant, serving some of the nicest Vietnamese food. Seats tend to be readily available, but very busy for takeaway. Service was super friendly and engaging. Highly recommended.”

“The staff are always so friendly and welcoming. Their coffee is seriously good, some of the best I've had. I go pretty regularly, and they already know my order which is awesome. I haven't tried the food yet, but it always looks so tempting. Definitely recommend checking this place out!”

“Ordered a seafood meal and pineapple fritter. Cooked perfectly. Coleslaw was fresh and thin sliced and had lettuce and a slice of tomato a nice little addition. Yum mayo.”

“The food is outstanding, felt grateful to finally have been able to get to this spot, hidden gem for primo Island food! 100 out of 10!!! This is a takeaway ONLY spot.”

“Always got a good range, nicely presented, good quality & good price & they have watercress! Lovely shop, clean, tidy, nice staff...”

“my first time here. love my scrambled eggs and bacon. best coffee ive had since Maccas McCafe lol. thank you for a great first experience.”

“Probably the friendliest staff of any cafe in the country. They're always bubbly and ready for a good yarn. The monthly changing scones and overnight oats are , 11 times out of 12, excellent , the olive lover(s) might say 12 out of 12. Good banter, excellent coffee and not a bad location either.”

“I ordered Special #6. And on another day, Special #7. Friendly staff and I didn't have to wait long for my order. There are options for large families, although I hadn't ordered these options. Spacious, free parking outside the shop. The fish'n chips is delicious”

“I absolutely adore this place! Every time I come here, I’m greeted with warm service and a welcoming atmosphere that instantly makes me feel at home. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented—truly a treat for the senses. From the first bite to the last, every dish is full of love and care. Whether it’s a casual meal or a special night out, this place never disappoints. It always leaves my belly happy and a smile on my face. Highly recommend to anyone who loves amazing food and a cozy, friendly vibe!”

“Consistently good food, very friendly staff.”
