Orvieto

We used to visit this place years ago and was the best place to get an eggs Benedict, how things have changed, the eggs Benedict was so average, muffins barely toasted, bacon ranging from over cooked to under cooked and our drinks came out after we’d finished our meal. The table was dirty see picture. The coffee tasted more like instant coffee with a bit of foam on top, won’t be rushing back after spending $55, sent coffee back and the mentioned they were having issues with their grinder… as a cafe you think this would be a priority. customer service terrible fruit juice arrived in bottle with no glass.

Finally Found The Bottom Eggs Bene and Service 31mins Eggs Bene for first order to 45mins Pancakes last order which they forgot. For a holiday surcharge this was criminal. Eggs Bene, French Toast and Pancakes were underwhelming at best. Look at the photos and you'll see the portions were kid's size but priced adults. Eggs Bene was not runny and again I would strongly encourage the reader of this post to go a further 500m up Mt Eden Road to Circus Circus and order their Eggs Bene - still my #1. I was reminded why we stopped coming here since 2019. Thought to give O a chance but you reaffirmed my decision so we'll leave it there and call it a day. To the owner: consider another industry that doesn't require timeliness and quality of delivery. Disappointing.

Has been through about 3 owners and current owner has improved it although all the favourites are still there. Coffee is better than ever. Standouts for me are the house made hash browns, nothing like the frozen supermarket ones and in several breakfast dishes. Buttermilk Hotcakes are to die for and beautifully presented, come with honeycomb butter and mascarpone. A side of bacon compliments these. Has always been one of Auckland's top cafes and thankfully survived the past couple of years

*this cafe New owner take over, the food is awful! Will not go back again Used to visit this cafe been regular customer like 3 years, was amazing cafe for food and coffee. So DISAPPOINTED today, I change 3 times the Creamy Mushroom *first time is runny sauce like water *second time not even better a little bit thirst time came out is DRY mushroom where is the Cream and sauce gone? And my husband steak sandwich the steak is tiny like my baby hand and NO taste! All the front staff was really good service and understan, even they know the food is look different!! you can see by my pictures today and before what is different By the way I change to classic bene after that!hope that classic can’t be wrong Post of 2022 The best cafe since I been in NZ we had the creamy mushrooms n steak sandwich today is prefect , the chef is amazing !!!The sauce of the steak sandwich is really tasty, actually last time I ate the creamy mushrooms not really good, but this time is back to normal keep the chef today please!!!!! Another best things is even in the busy weekend meal also come out fast like in 10mins, Good service

Yummy breakfast. French toast with side of hashbrowns and hotcakes. Fast service.

Orvieto is one of my fave cafés for good coffee, food and service Did a coffee run for the team at work, I called up and made my order then went and picked it up.Food: 5/5

Nice coffee, good food. The French toast comes with sourdough, which was a bit of a surprise. It would be good if it was mentioned on the menu I would have chosen something else...Food: 4/5

Coffee was excellent. Food was dreadful. I ordered the creamy mushrooms, which tasted like they'd had an entire salt cellar poured on them. It was just after NY, so maybe the B-team was on.

Yummy and big portions. Got the vegetarian breakfast and it has a good variety of vegetables and was overall really good, fried eggs were a bit overdone but poached seemed perfect.

Visited just after NY as one of the few cafes open. Coffee was terrible. Mince on toast was dry. Wife had a breakfast burrito which was bland eggs overdone, dry to taste. We didn't finish coffees or either of the dishes. Would not recommend.
