duo

Beautiful restaurant with exceptional gourmet dishes! We were so impressed by everything — the atmosphere, the flavours, the stunning presentation, and the warm, friendly staff. Highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting or living in Auckland . We’re a bit gutted we couldn’t try their duck dish this time — but that just gives us another reason to come back !

Has got to be my favourite Cafe in Auckland. Do not miss their raw fish or wagyu beef tartare on toast, and round it all off with the bruleed custard brioche. Bye-bye diet. Oh and seriously good coffee.

RAW FISH ON TOAST - Must have dish here!nnThe most unique dish at a cafe that I have ever had and wow it was amazing. The fish was fresh, complimented well with capers and tangy lemon flavour. Topped onto a deliciously toasted sour dough bread. YUM!nnIt was very busy on a weekend and barely managed to get a table, which is a good sign!nnAtmosphere was a cosy environment, nestled in a beautiful neighbourhood of well maintained villas.nnWill be back again!

Beautiful flavours. Tried burrata in aubergine fennel sauce, raw fish and duck. All were delicious. Will definetely come back again.

I live around the neighbourhood and do love their brunch and coffee. Came in today and ordered the Cloudy Bay Mafaldine. Unfortunately, I had to send it back as the pasta was undercooked I could still taste the raw flour. That said, the sauce was actually good.nWhen the dish came back out, the pasta was cooked, but this time it was completely drenched, more like soup than sauce. The way the bowl was dropped on the table I'm guessing she is the manager, based on the attitude didn’t feel great either. Finished the pasta, purely because I was hungry, not that I enjoyed it.nOn the bright side, the barista was lovely, she kindly returned the dish for me and checked in to make sure everything was okay. I’ve worked in hospo myself, so I really try to be understanding, but honestly, the whole experience was disappointing today.nGiving two stars for service purely because of the barista’s great service.
