Reviews
"Best in Napier, actually possibly best in NZ. We loved the wine the platter and the mains. We eat in the best restaurants in Auckland and many major cities in the world globally. Still we were blown away by the taste the experience and the quality of the dinner we had here."
"Staff were very accomodating. Food was creative and there was a sense of passion in what the chefs create. The only thing i could recommend is more attention to detail in terms of the gin list. It could be more extensive and i don’t remember it being on the menu. When I asked about the gins I don’t think the staff were provided with or coached on the local gins and the difference between dry, botanical, herbaceous and citrus. I also do recommend the use of dehydrated fruits. It could essentially elevate the experience to match the food and wine. Decor was nice and the bathrooms were clean. Food came out at a good pace. Good job to the floor staff and chefs. Just a bit more managerial over-site needed to fully bring the rest of the bar up to the food level which is an A+."
"Delicious and CREATIVE food. This place doesn't serve steak and chips. Everything we ordered was really yumm and served by a friendly team who made us feel comfortable (merci Abraham). Good selection of wines by the bottle and glass."
"Wow! We had a fabulous meal at this fabulous new restaurant last night. Really amazing food and delicious wine and drinks. Loved the attention to detail - the furniture, fit-out, menu, dinnerware, cutlery, and glasses were all cool. The restaurant just has a cool 'vibe'. The 4 of us described our different choices as some of the most delicious food that we had ever eaten. The front of house staff were very knowledgeable and professional, giving us good information and great wine matches too. Also loved the cool art in the bathrooms :) !!"
