Excellent location in the seaside suburb of Onerahi.

Excellent food, presentation, and seating.
This is one of the few restaurants we have been to where you are not crammed in and have to shift your seat every time someone moves or want's to get up!!

Great ambiance and I rate this restaurant very highly and recommended.

We booked Topsail online as we were heading north for a holiday. Low key elegance, gorgeous food, great service, would definitely visit again. Those of you from Wellington who remember Le Petit Lyon - this is his restaurant.

Husband and wife run, great food and great service. We had Mushroom plate, fiordland game and beef filets . Flavors pop in your mouth . Fig appetizer was incredible. Reservations a must due to size of restaurant

Second time we've been and again the food and service was A+. The restaurant faces the beautiful sunsets over the Whangarei harbour.

For starters I had the Steak Tartare, it was absolutely lovely and I will go back to order it again. I must say the chef understands pickles! I need to pop down again just to buy a jar! The two other dinners ordered the pork bellies and were happy with their starters.

The mains serving sizes are generous, especially with the extra bowls of food such as dinner rolls, roasted potatoes to complement. I had the Beef Fillet Steak and was very happy again. The other dinners had the Duck, towards the end of their plates they were getting very full indeed.
We ordered two Deserts, the mousse and the malt loaf. Both were lovely, however I really enjoyed the mouse.

I would certainly take advantage of the hospitality, by this I mean, pair your wines to the meals :-) Try to get a table earlier in the evening so that you can appreciate the stunning sunset over the Whangarei harbour while having beautifully crafted food paired with great alcoholic beverages, served by lovely hosts... Trust me, you'll not regret celebrating life here in this way! :-)

Needless to say well be back again

Top Sail is located above the sailing club rooms with great views across the harbor to historic Limestone Island. The welcome is always warm friendly and genuine.
The food is always fresh and frequently sourced locally. New flavours, interesting combinations - it has been consistently good for as long as we have been dining here.
