Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I know the place from earlier visit few years ago and had it in good memory. Went yesterday and had Muskels wrapped in bacon as a starter. Mmmh like that combination. The Waitress recommend a nice wine together with it and it matched perfect. As main I choose a steak which not only was very tasty it has Benn done exactly on the point I wanted it. My waitress or let's say both of them has been extremely helpful and always a smile on their face. That is the little extra to make me feel happy on a dinner. Will be back!

Was going through Trip Advisor to find a place that opens Monday realised although we eat here often, probably at least once a month I have never reviewed it and it deserves a good review. We normally go for lunch and order from the Tapas menu, when there is two of us 3 Tapas generally does the job if there is 3 of us we might stretch to 5. Their Tapas menu changes regularly one of my wife's favourites is the Brochette mine the Bacon Wrapped mussels, we both love the ceviche when it is on their menu. The have a good range of drinks including some Good George ales and ciders, prices are reasonable and service is always good. We turn up more often then not without a booking and they have always fitted us in heedless of how busy they are. Recently our Mother has come to live locally and comes out with us, although not in a wheel chair she has mobility problems, they have a lift and cater for this. The place is popular, there is a reason for that.

This restaurant is on a side street upstairs, so slightly hidden, but once discovered well worth visiting. This was my second visit, first time for dinner. Midweek and it\\the main restaurant was still busy, and a bit noisy, but nothing too much. Good service and we shared a delicious pizza (prawn and salmon from memory). We needed a quick dinner and this did the job very well. Very pleasant sitting there in the evening sunshine. Would definitely recommend Fahrenheit.

I have eaten at Fahrenheit before and was very pleased with the experience but this time it was average at best. My pizza had what tasted like a store bought base and was liberally covered with an ordinary sauce, my friends pulled pork sandwich was equally covered by two different sauces that drowned the taste. It is a classy restaurant but this time the food did not match.

Fahrenheit has a great position on main road in town with easy parking nearby. BUT despite a lovely verandah overlooking the street scene, you can't use it unless you enjoy other people's smoke! Really hot day and I was taking my daughter for special lunch. We sat outside and and gradually realised that all the inside folks came out by us when they couldn't resist a fag! It totally spoilt our lunch. If only there was a smoke free day, we would go there (if it was not totally overcrowded on such a day! Folks say it is legal to smoke outside...yes but not everyone enjoys other people's addictions.....legal or not! I cannot remember the date we were there but male server was not very interested and even called from the door asking if we wanted anything else/.......couldn't be bothered to come to table even! Won't be going there again unless smoking in eating areas is stopped. Food was very nice, but that's what I was prepared to pay a good price for.

Certainly enjoyed the meal of pork belly . Tender as , and crispy skin . Very well presented . Staff friendly and attentive . Restaurant slightly busy thus a touch noisy , but the quality food overruled that . Could be a problem for elderly as stairs required to reach Restaurant not being on ground level .

So the town is full for the " Sevens ". Where to go for a square meal. Headiinto the centre of Te awamutu . There is a Restaurant on the main street over a cafe. Entry up stairs around the corner. Lots of parking. A lift for us that need it. It seemed fairly full. Asked receptionest for a non booked table. No problem. Meanwhile the Balcony over the street was full of happy people. A great meal. Good desert.

Very disappointing. Wait time was so long I had to ask if we could order. Place was definitely not busy. Food well presented and enjoyable. Unfortunately, we will not be going back.

A great menu and the food was delightful. The wine menu was also very good. Staff were friendly and helpful. There was also a good gap between courses. Reasonably priced. Would definitely return
