Reviews
"Fantastic seafood restaurant. Extensive wine list and range of other drinks. Snapper and octopus both cooked to perfection. Crepes were probably the best I've ever had. Excellent customer service. Initially came here for oysters, but even though they were unavailable tonight we still had a great meal. Loved the suggested drink pairings for the desserts."
"Ortega was a recommendation from an Auckland chef and we were not disappointed. Firstly, the staff were exemplary, friendly, knowledgeable and everyone of them was in attendance. The wine recommendations were appreciated and the menu was a hard to choose. No food envy from anyone though as all the meals were ample and thoroughly delicious. This is a highly recommend!"
"This restaurant was amazing! The service was excellent and the food was up there with the best we have had and we like to eat out a lot :) Highly recommend! There is nothing we would fault."
"Long overdue review of Ortega. This is based on when we visited in January. We are creatures of habit so we came here 2 nights in a row after a fantastic meal of seafood consisting of oyster, ceviche, mussel - definitely try the teeny weeny French toast fish sandwich - and great wine selection. Place was popular with locals since it was packed on both days. Great vibe too. Shoutout to the owner Davey and bartender Frederico for making us feel at home and for introducing us to some special wines!"
"Fantastic food and good service - able to alter dishes to serve gluten free options. For a seafood restaurant the beef was incredible and cooked perfectly to order."
