This is a small cozy restaurant, with few tables indoor and a rather generous porch with outside seating. The kitchen is tiny and probably right-sized for the small community in Paihia. A couple of key observations: -bread basket had to be ordered and paid for...evidently bread is not complimentary here! -the garlic butter that came with the bread is the... More

Myself and a group of 8 other girls visited this restaurant for my birthday meal, everybody's meal and drinks came as ordered and we all thought the food and service was fantastic.

we had an ok meal here. i had the lamb shanks. friend had the steak. all average. would be lovely to sit out during daylight with the view. night time was still nice as you could hear the crashing waves. nothing to rave about.

Having been to this restaurant when it was known by another name two years ago we revisited and we were not disappointed. Excellent once again, staff still the same, ver friendly and excellent servive

They had kids menus which were... More
