Restaurant in Wellington

“I ordered the spicy fried noodles with chicken from the Cuba Street Aroy Thai, and they were epic! They tasted delicious. And came out really quickly too. If you’re craving wet noodles you can’t go wrong. Will definitely be back!”

“Amazing food and service. Love the ambiance there too; very chill. The menu has more choices than the current Google map photos show.”

“Best wonton soup ever! I get it without prawns or coriander, which they are always super accommodating about and if you go around 2pm or later, is usually pretty quiet which is nice.”

“some of the best food in Wellington hands down, love this place”

“I have ordered food from this place, have never visited. But I love their food. I tried their fish curry last time and it took me back to the backwaters of Kerala. I decided to try some other dishes, ordered Mutton Sukka and boy, I was amazed! If you are craving authentic spicy, flavoursome curries, definitely give this a try.”

“Really great place, totally adored the vide and the hostess was amazing and super friendly. Food was really quick, large portions and really really delicious. Everyone in our group loved their meals!!”

“Everything was splendid. Well cooked. The staff were all great. The steamed fish was so fresh and taste was great. Didn't have small change for tip when paying :( hope this compensates”

“Love this restaurant. Friendly staff and yum food. We love the duck pancakes and crispy eggplant!”

“The happiest, most welcoming, and excited people I have ever met. My entire family left with a warm, happy feeling, like spending time with extended family. To top it off, the food is great, and the portions plenty, just like eating with family.”

“Fell in love from the outside already. Finally had the chance to come here with my partner and it was absolutely beautiful.the food was delicious. The service super nice and attentative. Even their drinks tasted unique and amazing at the same time. Will definitely be back! Thanks Team!”

“It's close by so we eat here a lot... I can say it is consistently really good!! Fresh, tasty food, love the Asian meals but the classic fish n chips is delicious too. These guys are nailing it for a take away spot! Great prices, always fast, always tasty with big servings. Can't resist getting one of their amazing home made spring rolls every single time!!!”

“Great spot, the refit has been done well, one of the better places to perch up in Central wellington. Anna the bar tender was great and some hilarious banter! Recommended”

“We had such a wonderful evening at Dillingers. The WOAP burger was delicious, nice cold beer and excellent quiz! A wonderful Tuesday out.”

“Love coco's - it is one of my regulars. Coco the owner is a fabulous hostess - she always remembers your order and is super friendly. Their menu is a hidden gem with something for everyone.”

“Had dinner there with my sons Not only Sunday kid free meal The food is very tasty too. Will definitely come back again.”

“This has been our go to place for many years and food has always been consistent as the owners have not changed. Our favourites are the deep fried chicken wings, hainanese chicken rice, hokkien char and combination fried noodle. Owners are friendly and are always greeted with a smile. The decor is pretty simple but tidy and clean. Parking is ample however does get busy during the weekends.”

“I try vegan ramen everywhere I go, and The Ramen Shop in Wellington goes above and beyond! From two vegan ramen broth options (mushroom shoyu or spicy miso), to vegan Kimchi, tofu bao, and a Mapo Tofu rice bowl, everything from the clean food to the ambiance and excellent service, keep coming back!”

“The dumplings were very good, what stood out was the chilly oil. Very polite staff, patiently took our order of multiple things .. Small place, mostly seems to be a take away oriented place but there is still some place to sit and eat.”

“Spent at least an hour walking the quiet streets of Wellington during labour weekend to look for Sunday lunch. Stumbled on this gem of a place that’s to the strong winds. Thank you Natalie for the service and thanks chef for the outstanding delicious seafood curry and roti. Blown away by the fresh mussels and the presentation too. Thank you so much”

“We’ve just moved into Ngaio and thought we’d try a takeaway from Tandoori Nights. The staff were polite the service prompt. Our curries were excellent including the samosas and onion bhajis. We’ll certainly be frequent visitors.”

“Our favourite burgers! Love that they cater for allergies and gluten free. Yummiest kumara fries too! So worth the drive across Wellington for these - best Burger Wisconsin in Wellington!”

“Satay Village has been a favourite dine in and take away for my large family and friends for many years! The food and atmosphere is great and the owners Don, Lisa and Wai Man are very friendly, lovely and always welcoming. We will sadly miss coming and seeing you and we wish you all the very best for the future! Thank you from all the BRYAN CLAN Danielle, Kevin and Family and friends!! Caroline & Damian Kells (Singapore) Max and Sam Kells (Singapore) Desiree Stewart and Family Bree and Luke & Family Brigitta Bryan and whole Bryan Family”

“This place never fails. Great food, service, drinks, coffee, parking, public transport- everything! The menu is fab,. But people come for the daily specials. This is shown in a light board. You can check that out as you drive past,as well as check on how busy ( buzzy) it is. They do gluten free with no fuss, kids, no problem ( the 25 yo hipster next me ordered children's menu chicken!). Try it. Think diner/cafe/neighbourhood bistro and you'll get it. Really, have an open mind and enjoy it.”

“Been coming here for years. Brothers are friendly and they treat you well. Good local shop for your local Friday night fish and chips.”

“Fish and chips is very good. Chips are crisp outside and fluffy inside, just the way they should be, and more consistently excellent than some hotels and cafes can manage. The Asian meals are ok, although fried rice was outstanding, generous portions and enough "wok breath" (where the rice has been exposed to sufficient heat in a hot wok long enough so it tastes like fried rice, not just rice warmed in a wok). Service is fine for a takeaway, efficient and polite, can't fairly expect anything more. Make sure your order is repeated back to you to avoid mistakes, especially over the phone, as it's a noisy environment.”

“Very nice food I’m really enjoys”

“Amazing fish & chips for a super low price. Definitely recommend. The fish was full of meat and texture and the batter didn't detach from the fish. One chips portion is good for 2 people and the chips are amazing too. Definitely recommend”

“Best curly fries around. Easy to have a conversation and be heard, the coffee is constantly good and recently become almost too pretty to drink.”

“Great food, loved the Tacos especially the prawn and pulled pork options. Great selection of Gins from NDC as well.”

“We had our wedding at The Waterfront in March 2025 and couldn't be happier with our choice. Zara was involved from the start, bringing a calm, professional approach that made the planning process easy and stress-free. Her communication was excellent, and she used her experience to ensure everything went smoothly. She even took on extra tasks like printing and setup, allowing us to focus on other aspects. The staff were outstanding—proactive and attentive. Our guests raved about the food and overall atmosphere. We highly recommend The Waterfront for any event. They've set a new standard for hospitality on the coast, comparable to the best in Auckland or Melbourne. Keep it up & thank you for everything!!”
