Kim is the Best

From the moment we walked in the door we were being looked after, given a good sized table for our group of 7. Service was quick. When we ordered our usual Mussel&Clam dish we were informed it was now cooked in a coconut sauce, which...we were all disappointed with as we just liked the old ‘White wine and garlic’ that they used to be in, but thankfully our fantastic server Kim asked the Chef if he could do this for us, and hey presto it was, and very yummy they were, as was the rest of the food we ordered, Meatfest pizza with no BBQ sauce or aioli, the best! Garlic bread and squid salad. It was a lovely meal and Kim made our evening with her outstanding customer service! We’ll be back 👍More

Hidden gem here. Should be world famous.

The Monday night $15 burgers were fabulous and the meat lovers pizza was just perfect. Service was spot on. Attentive but not obtrusive.

Good home , average home

Came here with my partner on a Monday afternoon. Really terrible customer service, we weren’t even greeted and waiter was dismissive. Apon receiving our snacks the fries were rock hard , barely even cooked properly. The fries also stated on the menu that they are...gluten free , and after consuming them both my partner and I had been glutened, very itchy and ill. My partner ordered an espresso martini which wasn’t even filled to the top , and way overshaken. Disappointing guys , up the game please !!More

Great hosts and awesome dining room for our group function! Cheers!

Kia ora The Good Home! Once again fantastic fun had holding our big group event at your dining room. We were very welcomed and served well by Kim in the dining space and really quick meal arrivals thanks. My lamb tacos were delicious (and healthy)...and staff bent over backwards to meet needs of our group. Thanks for looking after us so well and help our event work well for all - even the owner came to say hi & assist with something helpfully at one point.More
