Lovely little place at the end of the harbour, great view across to the Islands whilst you ate your food or just had a drink. I booked online after settling into my accommodation & glad that I did as after 7.30pm it got really busy. There was a guy singing so made the atmosphere vibe going. We were put by a nice table of the view, friendly staff very attentive. Good range of choice on menu. We decided to have the pork bao buns as a starter followed by red snapper & green risotto my other half had the steak. All beautifully cooked then we shared a dessert. The expresso martini which apparently is a special there was great.

Wow. Great menu, superb location and best service in any restaurant in our whole 4 weeks in New Zealand.

Kennedy made our two visits amazing. What an asset to the restaurant.. superb friendly professional service and went above and beyond to ensure we were looked after.

First time we went was with a group of 4 and it was so good we went back to night after with a group of 8.

Cannot recommend this place highly enough

We ordered the lamb ribs. Unfortunately, they were so salty we couldn't taste them. They had almost no meat, only fat and bones.

Nice menu - both food and drinks. We opted for a bao bun starter of pork belly which was excellent, followed by mains of gnocchi and fish of the day (snapper) risotto - also very good. The service was efficient and friendly, so all in all a very nice dining experience.
