If you're searching for the perfect spot to savour a delightful meal, look no further than this outstanding restaurant! Our family of five, including children under the age of five, experienced exceptional service that truly stood out. The vibrant atmosphere combined with the friendly and welcoming staff created a warm and inviting environment. The food was absolutely delicious, earning a solid 5+ star rating from us. The family rooms are a fantastic feature, offering a comfortable space where our 6-month-old and other little ones could relax and enjoy themselves. This thoughtful setup provided a stress-free dining experience for the entire family, making it a place we’d happily return to. ~ Anna
We went for all you can eat tonight and the food was yummy! The lil chicken sliders, ribs, sesame noodles and brownie was our faves! Also guac was seasoned to perfection! Also dunno how the falafel was cooked but it was so yum and crispy!!! The portions are kinda on the small side so definitely recommend taking advantage of the fact it’s all you can eat, and go when your super hungry to get your moneys worth! But also it’s good with the small portions because you don’t get filled up on one thing and get to try everything!! We all left feeling full and satisfied!! Our waitress was lovely aswell!! We wanted to try somewhere new in Rotorua so glad we found this cute little place, will definitely they be back for their ribs and brownies so fricken yummm!!! Thanks guys!! ~ Dallas A
We came in on a Thursday night. Excellent atmosphere and friendly manager. He seated us in the back bar and we got some drinks. The mocktail he made for my friend was excellent. We ordered mussels for a starter and then I got the lamb shank and she had the pork ribs. Lamb shank did not come with the advertised cranberry but instead had Morrocan spices and was in a kind of curry sauce. Although this was delicious I was surprised by the unexpected taste. Ahkil was an excellent host and has a talent for mixology. Dessert was okay and I think the highlight was the conversation and atmosphere. Would definitely come back and try something else next time. ~ Pounamu J
