Description: Sails Restaurant has an amazing location. Set in the middle of Westhaven Marina, beside the Harbour Bridge, with breathtaking views of the harbour. There are few views in the world that capture the essence of the city than the one from Sails Restaurant. A couple of minutes from the centre of Auckland, yet in a world of its own, with unlimited free parking at the door, Sails Restaurant is not just about its location. Over the last three decades the restaurant has forged its reputation as one of New Zealand’s top restaurants through an uncompromising belief in using only the freshest ingredients, the most talented chefs, and professional waiting staff. The menu at Sails is seafood focused, but also includes New Zealand’s finest beef and lamb. The full menu and all the details can be found on our website.

We always eat at Sails during their Crayfish Month. The meal, service and everything are first class.
On other special occasions we will enjoy from the A La Carte menu.

We went for a special wedding anniversary dinner and the Sails team did us proud - food was delicious, the seared tuna starter was exquisite, best I've ever had. Service was perfect and even had a complimentary plate of sweet petit fous with Happy Anniversary on the plate. Thank you so much for a wonderful evening
