Read on Google ↗Really enjoyed the food here! The quality and portion sizes were absolutely worth the price. Everything was great, and I would definitely recommend this place. Just make sure to book a table in advance, as it gets really crowded. Definitely worth a visit! 😊
Read on Google ↗As a Gen-Z new to the culinary dinning experience and visiting Te Whanganui-a-Tara from the provinces on my own on a quiet day, this was a great entry level experience for mid-range dining. The staff are friendly and approachable. The range of food and drinks large. Most importantly...the vibes are immaculate! I was drawn in by the sound of City Pop, and ate while listening to Boom-Bap classics and watching Jellyfish swim over the bar like I was in a Blade Runner 2049. Made my day. I reccomend the Lychee NO-jito, the Tofu, Spinich & Bean Sprouts (the sauce was wonderfully savoury), and the Original-Recipe Beef Dumplings.
