Back to one of our favourite Wellington places. This time tried the beef Wellington that people have been mentioning and it really was excellent. Hubby had the lamb shank also very good. This is a consistently reliable place for a good meal, good atmosphere and really friendly service. Don’t hesitate to eat here… especially the beef Wellington!

I had a mission: to try a Beef Wellington in Wellington and wow, this place absolutely delivered. The gravy was rich and flavorful, the pastry perfectly golden and crisp, and the steak inside was tender. The potatoes were like little clouds of heaven. 🌥️ Honestly, I’d come back here in a heartbeat. My husband ordered the steak with mushrooms, and the woodfired flavor was phenomenal. The cocktails were also spot on, well balanced and beautifully made. Overall, an incredible experience that we’d 100% return for. 🥂

Popped in for lunch today and was pleasantly surprised by both the food and service! Staff were lovely and really helpful. Suggestions for the food, continuously cleaning up and bringing us drinks when they needed to be refilled. Food itself was really good. The squid wasn’t the greatest, but tacos and chips were awesome! Honestly a strong recommend from me!!!

We had an amazing time here! The food was incredible - decent prices, generous portions and beautiful well balanced flavours. The staff are really lovely and attentive, the atmosphere is welcoming and casual despite the high quality food. I couldn’t believe I’d actually ordered a salad and it was large, delicious, inventive and perfectly dressed. So many places give you a tiny bowl of leaves from a bag with some dry cabbage or carrot smothered in cheap oil - this was properly lovely, lush and fresh. The squid rings were delicious - though the sauce was a bit sweet for me. In general I would have loved some mayonnaise - this whole country insists on aioli… I’m not into garlic and love a proper, creamy fresh mayo, especially with chips. But in general this is the best meal I’ve had in Wellington. The lamb shank has a beautiful warmth to it - spiced with layers of fragrant flavours. We just had a fantastic time - so grateful to have discovered this spot and will definitely be back.
