Scrumptious food, great atmosphere, and such a great service. Their pasta is to die for! The best I ever had, and I'm obsessed with pasta and order it every time I have a chance. Until finding this gem, I thought I Amano's pastas were the best, but then 'The grounds' really made me change my mind! The kids' menu is huge and delicious, and the avocado on toast wasn't too big, but it was perfect I'm definitely coming back.
I had poached eggs on a bed of Kale with a side salad sour dough toast Very delicious. I had turmeric latte. Really enjoyed that. Could of been hotter. Thank you too the staff, they were fantastic. It was my first time. Would love to try the different varieties of meals. The playground was absolutely full with all the family groups. You had to pay $5 per child to play there. So worth it. Visit it is lovely. I will be back. Kid-friendliness: It is an amazing playground, The children had a ball. There were Birthday parties happening. Lots of family groups enjoying the beautiful day. Parking: Not enough parking, as it was a lovely sunny day. There were lots of family groups. People coming and going.
Very nice aesthetic to the place with quite a few drinks options. I do wish there were a bit more breakfast options as we visited at the time. Value of the meals could also be improved as it was a bit pricey with small portions however tasted great. Few things to do around, mostly for the kids
The food was good but thats where the buck stopped. I will never return, the poor young staff had no co-ordination to what they were doing and what looked like very bad supervision/management. We had to find staff to help us as no one was dedicated to areas. We ordered one round of drinks then waited 50 minutes for meals. No one asked if we wanted another round of drinks... We got out of there and wouldn't go back. Avoid if you want to take more than two people or are hungry! Their staff won't last long, poor young things apologizing and getting bossed around by a lady who looked out of place.
The food was great. Restaurant ia spacious. There is a play area for kids so parents can watch their kids play while eating if you are seated on the outside tables. Service was excellent
Really nice looking restaurant, amazing playground and outdoor space for kids. Loved the food, especially the dumplings, but quite a few items on the menu out of stock. Nice cold lunchtime Asahi completely the meal, thanks Whoa! Vegetarian options: Great, tasty vegetarian options, I had a fancy tomato salad, wish I could make it like that at home, so tasty
It was our first time to go to this place. We were excited to spend some time with friends and enjoy “Happy Hour.” They advertised on their website that they have Happy Hour every Thursday and Friday afternoon from 5-6 pm, and that most of their seasonal wines and house beers were half priced. We were disappointed and dismayed when we were told that they don’t have “Happy Hour”. That’s actually false/misleading advertising. Even worse, the waitress told me they only have expensive wines and I wouldn’t have wanted it, as if telling me that I couldn’t afford it. Nevertheless, we spent more than $400 on food and drinks. The panna cotta was good but the strawberry Tiramisu was weird. We would’ve gone back to this place. I even thought of suggesting to have our corporate party there but because of what happened, I would neither go back nor recommend it to anyone. But at least the kids had fun at the playground. That was the saving grace.
Customer service tonight was Thanks Lee and Hine. The food was pricey but expected for the Group rolling menu. Ambiance was Soo nice to sit down and relax well the kids play on the playground. Will come again
1/ Restaurants in West Auckland are of such a high standard and the Grounds just reinforce this. Surprisingly busy for the holiday period. 2/ Another visit to this exceptional restaurant that we’re lucky to have in West Auckland, it never disappoints.
It was a lovely sunny day so no surprise the place was packed. Luckily our friend had booked a table. There is some confusion around paying to use the playground. We paid the $7 but feel it should be included when dinning at the restaurant. Staff seemed a bit stretched with a long wait to order and for water. The food was delicious, ribs much enjoyed with the sauce, salad and rice. The fish was tasty but overpriced at $37 when it came with 2 mussels, some sundried tomato, olives, capers and grisini sticks. The grisini were a strange accompanyment, a piece of bread would have been nicer to soak up the sauce.
