4/5 because the “All day menu” is not all day. Breakfast ends at 11:30. Otherwise these were some of the best chips/fries I’ve ever had. Perfectly fried and crunch on the outside. The garlic truffle oil aioli was incredible. Bloody Mary was really great too!
Amazing location with the best views, great food quality, cold beer and great service. Thanks, Rory - Naked Marketing
Butterfish has it all: friendly people, amazingly great food, and a view to die for. I highly recommend it as a great casual restaurant to sit back and enjoy life.nnWe didn’t read reviews on this one—unusual for me—but lucked into a gem. I am not sure I will want to try other places in Russell.
Love this place. Dined there many times. Great food and nice friendly staff.nLove sitting outside on the waterfront
Yummy! Nasi Goreng in the North of New Zealand...nnTravel to one of the utmost North Town in NZ. I went into a typical restaurant and café and was surprised to see a S.E.Asian cuisine. I just have to order that dish. The regular stuff is too common, and to be able to cook up a great Nasi Goreng Rice fried, not only does it have to be delicious, but it must be authentic.nnI placed my order, paid for the meal, and left the restaurant to get my bag. For a moment, I wonder if they would serve the dish and put it on my table even when I am not around.nnWhen I came back, I was glad that the food was only served when I sat down. A huge A star for the restaurant for doing that.nnThe half a dozen oysters are great, and with a little lemon and pickled onion, it was just perfect. I could eat another dozen without hesitation.nnThe Nasi Goreng came to my table, still steaming hot. When I dig my fork into the rice, steam evolves out of the centre of the rice. Perfecto.nnThe presentation of the Nasi Goreng was beautiful. The colour combination makes it appetising and attractive. I especially like the spicy fragrance of satay scent, and the best part of the fried rice is that each grains are smother or wrapped by the spice and sauce. A good chef knows that great fried rice does not spare any grains of rice, and even grain is fried or covered with the oil and spice. No white grain rice allowed.nnChef Scotty definitely has done it well by taking time to ensure each grain of rice is fried. We chat a little over the meal, and one makes him special is his willingness to seek customer's opinions... a huge star for the restaurantnnWell done!nnAll the staff are friendly, smiling most of the time and professional. Butterfish is indeed an icon of Russell.
