We went there at 5:40 PM, and not a single person acknowledged us while we waited to be seated. After standing around for a few minutes, we had to go up to the bar just to ask if we could get a table for 2. The staff then informed us that they had a booking for 15 people and couldn’t take any orders for 40 minutes! When I asked if we could at least order entrees and drinks during that time, I was told, “We can’t do anything for 40 minutes.” The restaurant was empty apart from the party of 15 they were already serving.nTerrible service and poor management.nWent to another joint that had 2 functions and got served straight away.
Called in to the Portside restaurant at 7pm on a Monday night for a couple's meal - last minute spur of the moment decision after an evening walk we have been once before.nnIt was empty other than us... which is a shame, because the meal was delicious, service friendly and an awesome setting on a summer's evening. Tasty local wine available too - and everything all at reasonable prices. Those that weren't there are missing out!nnSalt and Pepper squid was up there with some of the best.nnWe'll be back soon!
Me and my whānau 4 adults, 3 kids after staying in Awhitu popped in here on our way home for lunch. Spur of the moment because we were starving and ended up being one of the best eats we’ve had. Service was amazing. We were seated immediately, staff were attentive and friendly. All up we ordered the steak, the lamb shank, the seafood platter, burger, fried chicken and garlic bread. Food portions were awesome, we were given extra food, lamb shank and garlic bread. All the food was fantastic, same calibre as lone star and goode brothers. Ordered some cocktails and daiquiri as well, which were pretty cheap and yummy! Really enjoyed our last minute call in here and kids had a nice small area to play outside and stretch the legs. Absolutely loved this place and would definitely come again. Well worth!
Such a cool place. Would highly recommend it. Great bar. Good accomodation. Fantastic service. Quite a bit better than what we were expecting
Come for a bottomless brunch, was told we could only have an alcoholic drink every 15 minutes even though it’s bottomless drinks!? Nothing underlining that so was bad from the start, got to choose 3 dishes and had 3 small pieces of each thing I ordered, 9 small pieces of food,the cocktails they made were weak with no alcohol, mate went through all 6 and felt absolutely fine, we then switched to beer as we knew there would be actually alcohol in there only to be served old dead lifeless beer which made everyone throw up. Shocking experience and hope they don’t do it anymore had mates booked for later that day but told them not to come, $70 for 6 non alcoholic drinks and 9 pieces of food, mean as not
