About the Business
Welcome to Gina's Italian Kitchen, a hidden gem in the heart of Mount Eden Village in Auckland, New Zealand. Located at 448 Mount Eden Road, our cozy establishment offers a unique dining experience where you can indulge in delicious Italian cuisine.
If you're planning to dine with us, we highly recommend reserving a table in advance, as we can get quite busy. Please note that on busier days, we operate a two sitting policy, with each table allocated a 2-hour dining window. While there may be a short wait upon your arrival, rest assured that our attentive staff will take care of you during this time.
For larger groups of 15 or more, please make a booking with us and confirm it with a deposit. Additionally, please be aware that we have a 15% surcharge on public holidays to cover our costs.

Founded in 1973 by Gina Maio, a passionate Italian from Calabria, and her German husband Bodo Luckfiel, our restaurant has been a beloved part of the community for over five decades. We have moved locations over the years, from Mount Eden to Victoria St and Symonds St, but now we are back to our roots in Mount Eden.
Continuing Gina's legacy, we take pride in serving warm, hearty Italian food with generosity and love. Our dishes are prepared using the freshest ingredients, bursting with flavors that will transport you to the heart of Italy.
Thank you for choosing Gina's Italian Kitchen. We hope you enjoy your meal as much as we enjoy serving you.

Reviews
"Enjoyed a yummy meal of pizza and polenta chips. The chips were a good size, plenty of them and the dip was a perfect accompaniment. Toscana pizza was delicious and all washed down with a beautiful red. A table nearby had Tirumisu for desert, we were too full but plan to come back and leave room as it looked amazing."
"I ordered the pizza caprese with chilli flakes and my friend ordered a garlic bread! The pizza caprese is essentially a Margherita pizza with fresh mozerella, basil leaves and olive oil! I’ve had Margherita’s at a lot of places but Gina’s has to be the best I’ve had! It’s incredible how much flavour was packed into such a simple pizza (I think the chilli flakes also played its part). Definitely rate 10/10! On other hand, the garlic bread was so unique, I have never had anything like it before. The garlic bread was essentially wood fired bread with dried herbs and garlic. It was exceptional, it was not oily or saucy as you would expect your average garlic bread to be. It was crunchy and had just the right amount of oil to not leave the bread so dry in your mouth. But… the best part is when you take a bite and the flavours explode in your mouth. 10/10! Will definitely be ordering again! Super cheap compared to other shops but is also generally reasonably priced!"
"Food was incredible and came out very quickly! Service was amazing and very welcoming. Definitely will be going back! My partner and I loved the braised lamb penne pasta and mozzarella bread 10/10 recommend!!"
