Exquisite food and great service

My husband and I visited on the 1st of August 2020 and had THE most amazing lunch we have had in a while. I had the yellow curry with pumpkin and he had the sweet pork. Both dishes were generously sized and delicious! Staff are...very friendly. We are looking forward to our next visit to Christchurch so we can enjoy another beautiful meal at DUO.More

Our social club enjoyed a wonderful evening at Duo last Saturday. Service was exemplary and the food so so tasty. Many of our group have said they would return. We can't thank DUO enough.

Just ok....

I came here for dinner with friends to celebrate my birthday and to be honest the food & service is pretty average. It felt like the venue was apart of the University Campus & not really like a restaurant. This place is ok for lunch...or casual dinner, but I wouldn't really recommend it for a special occasion.More

Thank you for your feedback. However, as we are not located near any university campus, we think your review maybe for another restaurant - To assist us to review, please send more information to info@duochch.co.nz. We have catered for numerous birthday celebrations with great feedback...More

Superb food and service

Just loved this place. The staff were extraordinarily friendly and helpful, the menu had a really good but limited choice of dishes so it was easy to make decisions, and the food was of the very highest quality.
