Food establishment in Wellington

“Ordered two beef salads and two Pad Thai’s - best Pad Thai in Wellington- this is honestly the best takeaway place in Johnsonville- love all their meals!”

“Honestly, this is hands down the best sweet and sour pork I’ve ever eaten! And The staff is also very friendly.”

“The food was exceptionally prepared and presented. It was full of flavour and melted in your mouth. Loved the extra details and the friendly service. We had the set menu and it is well balanced and just exquisite. This restaurant never disappoints.”

“Always excellent customer service being provided by staff especially the woman celebrating her birthday today.”

“Mushroom quesadilla on a Sunday afternoon - glorious. We ordered then waited on the balcony of Goldings bar with a drink. Whilst it took a bit longer than expected it was well worth the wait! Highly recommend if you're after a Mexi-fix.”

“Dined at Oikos for the first time this evening, and we will definitely be back. We ordered a variety of dishes to share – the lamb shoulder was super tender, the chicken skewers were delicious, and the honey feta was lovely. The portion sizes aren’t massive, but this is the sort of restaurant you’d visit for the experience and the quality of flavours, rather than to leave feeling absolutely full. My only suggestions would be to provide salt and pepper on the tables and to consider offering some non-alcoholic wine options. Warm service and a lovely atmosphere – many thanks!”

“Wow wow wow. A truly transcendent dining experience, Ortega Fish Shack is a shining exemplar of culinary excellence, rivaling our beloved Chef's Table. Every aspect of our visit was nothing short of extraordinary. The service was impeccable, the food sublime. The oysters were a revelation, the steak cooked to perfection. Honestly, it's a testament to the power of exceptional cuisine to uplift and inspire.”

“We had a lovely time dining at Rita. The service was very friendly, professional, and attentive. The restaurant is set in a cute narrow building and they make good use of the space. The design is minimalist. We enjoyed all our dishes. Portion sizes are on the smaller side, but you’re not coming here for quantity. It’s about the quality and pairing of the ingredients. You’ll still leave feeling full. Would easily recommend to anyone looking for something new and different. Note the menu changes regularly, I think even daily. Whatever is on the menu that day is what you’ll get. Great if you struggle to make decisions!”

“It's a take out place. The food was amazing. They are not kidding on the level of Sichuan”

“Dining at Polemo the other night was an absolute treat. Nestled right on the waterfront, the restaurant offers not just stunning views but also exceptional food and service. The beef short ribs were a standout—so tender and flavorful they quite literally melted in your mouth. The pork belly roll was equally impressive, perfectly seasoned to bring out its rich flavours. A special shoutout to Kevin for his excellent menu recommendations, and to Kelly who is a dessert queen that panna cotta was phenomenal!”

“Great selection of GF and V food along with regular food. The sausage roll removed pastry so I could savor it! Have visited a few times in the last month. They change up the food offerings and always delights. Coffee is fabulous as expected.”

“Great place with great coffee options. Staff is extremely friendly.”

“Another local favourite, with plenty of great ways to enjoy your fresh coffee - Steampunk and Nitro among the 'must try' options - and a knowledgeable staff happy to help find your favourites!”

“Popped in for a coffee just before closing and left with free muffins. Super friendly service and a very kind gesture. Thanks!”

“Absolutely fantastic! Coffee is great. Atmosphere really easy and rustic (just as I love it. Something that I really loved is that they promote the use of your own cup instead of paper goblets (go green!) They also make their own pizzas. So far, the cheapest café I had in New Zealand”

“Bought a dog coat for my dog Dolly. She'd had a rather severe groom and was freezing. So nice to be able to take Dolly into the shop and try them on. Really nice service and good quality goods.”

“What an incredible business . Today I put through a very late order for my partner for tomorrow. And Vanessa emailed back straight away to say she could deliver tomorrow. So fast , kind , efficient highly recommend . Thank you so so much KC x ps Photo doesn't show how absolutely stunning this crate of beers , nibbles and deliciousness is . Partner is blown away thank you . Highly highly recommend Best of the Bunch Florist .”

“The owners are so so lovely. The flowers they have are always fresh and well priced. Highly recommend”

“From all the times I've come here, the staff have been wonderful and extremely helpful! Would definitely recommend t leaf T!! Customer service is great. As a bonus, they even gift wrap for free with a range of different coloured/patterend bands and have taste testings for a couple of tea flavours at a time.”

“Ordered a Cajun lamb and Chilli lamb souvlaki. Both super delicious. Service was excellent. Souvlakis were made in 10 mins. Happy customer.”

“The meals are delicious and the lasagna name is the best I've had ! Trust me, I'm a foodie. Gotta say, love the customer service and everything about the guys who run this place! "Wellingtons best kept secret"”

“A simple hole in the wall bake shop. Must try their hamburgers with homemade buns & pattie. They also make awesome curries. You can have an excellent lunch with drinks for $10-15.”

“Absolutely love this place!! The staff are so lovely, coffee is a 10/10 and the food is delicious! Karen and Tegan are always super hospitable and you can really tell they care about their customers. Will definitely be back!”

“I am working on the same building and this is not only a very convenient place to go, but best stop for cheese scone and coffee! Yummy Prestigios and delish Empañadas. We went to try the WOP burger and it is a success! Rodrigo is lovely, always have a nice word! Well done”

“We stopped in for a late lunch on Saturday and the place had a steady stream of customers either eating in or taking away. My boyfriend and I both ordered the dosa and agreed it was some of the best we’d had. The service was super attentive (given the chef / owner was the only one working that shift), the food was delicious, and the restaurant and toilets were nice and clean. We’ve both happily agreed to make this a new regular.”

“Cute little neighbourhood Argentinian run cafe on Oriental Bay. With a seaside view this place offers a simple modern interior decor, funky contemporary music that serves coffee and Argentinian treats and pastry. The empanadas are delicious but my favourites are the egg and bacon pastry/tart and they serve the best cheese scones I’ve ever had- I taste test cheese scones wherever I go! The egg and bacon pastry/tart is served with this special Argentinian sauce that’s unique and delicious that I highly recommend trying- Chimichurra sauce. Service is courteous, polite and friendly.”

“This cafe deserves all the positive reviews it gets. The coffee was the best one I’d had on this visit to Wellington - great flavour, and nice and hot. The toasted cheese scone was amazing and we’ll definitely go back for another on our next visit. The staff were respectful and friendly too.”

“There’s a good reason you’re likely to see queues out the door for Goods. They’re consistently baking the BEST pastries, serving it with great coffee and the friendliest service. In my partner’s words: “this place makes me glad I live in Wellington.” Unbeatably cosy vibes.”

“We have been a few times now and still the best on quality and taste. One of the best indian food places in wellington which gives you authentic taste of India. Also, Ganga is great at customer service and knows how to treat customers.”

“On a cold Wellington morning, we ducked into this cafe for a couple of coffees. Warm, friendly service and tasty coffee. Cute little courtyard out the back sheltered from the wind.”
