Description: The Taste of Our Place - Kia Ora, Kai, Kaitiaki. At Logan Brown, you'll experience a welcoming, inspiring and genuine taste of our place, our people and the produce that makes you proud to be a New Zealander. We opened in December Friday the 13th in 1996 and decades later it is way different but still the same! We have evolved with dining trends, service styles, taken opportunities with new product and techie innovations and of course will continue to do so. What has never changed is the sharing with our guests our true passion for our craft, our community and our country. We want everyone to be as proud as we are about New Zealand’s environment, the land and seas bounty, and the amazing people who harvest or produce from it. Working closely with these passionate producers inspires and excites the team who are proud to share their stories, and we always welcome new seasons and new to the market produce from suppliers and give it a go.

Our experience of Logan Brown's exceeded our high expectations! It was a special occasion as it was my wife's birthday. Being new to Wellington we hadn't managed to visit LB's for dinner but had heard great things about the food. The "Meadow Vesper" cocktail I started with was a delicious martini variation. The food was as good as our favourite Auckland restaurant Clooney's and as good as the food we had at our wedding lunch in a 1 Michelin starred restaurant in London! Every mouthful of every dish was worth savouring especially the Stout Braised Beef Cheeks, Rare Beef, Local Lentils, Butternut, Lime & Chipotle. The French waiter was delightful and attentive.

There is no better value in Wellington than the Bistro menu at Logan Brown. The three course meal we had on Saturday was exquisite. All three courses were first class. The service, as always, was friendly and to a standard you would expect from the best restaurant in a capital city. Highly recommended for lunch and dinner.

A table of three on a Saturday night having the seven course degustation menu.

Service was great, waiter was new so did not yet have a handle on what he was serving us, but that added to the fun.

Six of the dishes were to die for, the cheese and crackers did not really fit, but possibly gave the chef(s) a bit of a breather (unfortunately I really do not like cheese).

Will be going back.

When we booked from OZ we where told the lunch menu was a feature to celebrate the All Black v Wales rugby game, so it was a themed lunch menu. During the meal we then found out the standard menu was available but was not offered this as an option when we arrived. The service was good, but not outstanding as we had read rave reviews that this was one of the top restaurants in Wellington. The themed menu was OK, one dish was the 'shepards pie' this was a deconstructed version with lamb as the feature, the other serve was a steak. Overall a pleasant meal , maybe the dinner service has more atmosphere as it was lacking at lunchtime. Will try this next time.

Thanks OZ53 Traveller for the review. We are sorry about the mix-up with the menus, it was not our normal menu on offer it was just our Bistro Menu for people who are part of our Database as it was a special deal. Hopefully next time you join us in the restaurant you will be able to experience our normal menu!
