  It the food was of very poor quality, seems to be made out of frozen foods. Annoying owner who talked too much, but didn't want to listen. A very average experience. Not going back.   (Dianne Wood - November, 2012)

• Sutra Restaurant - Campbells Bay

  Overall 7.8 - Food 8, Ambience 7, Value 8, Service 8

  Good local curry house. The menu is varied and offers good value. The curries we tasted were well-spiced and aromatic. We ordered 2 mediums and one mild and all were on the milder side. New restaurant looking to expand to a cafe by day and also offer a full takeaway menu in the near future. So far so good, deserves to do well.   (November, 2012)

• Ruang Thong Thai 6 - Thai Cuisine Mt Roskill

  - 212 White Swan Rd, Mt Roskill AUCK

  Overall 5 - Food 7, Ambience 5, Value 5, Service 3

  even thou I like the food, but not happy with the service, new chief for past few times, and closing much much sooner than closing time(sometimes even 1hour) when they are quite is not just a good look and definitely doesn’t make costumers happy!!!!! Maybe it would be better to focus on the quality and the service more than just opening a new shop every now and then.   (Mike - October, 2012)

• Orbit Restaurant, Skycity Tower

  - Corner Victoria St & Federal st, Auckland CBD AUCK

  Overall 5 - Food 5, Ambience 5, Value 5, Service 5

  We were booked in for the 8.45pm session. While we were greeted at the reception I requested for a window table if possible. I was told by the staff that he was not there to attend to such request. I certainly do not expect that sort of reply from a front line staff. He is in need of some more PR lessons compared with the other waiting staff .   (October, 2012)

• Bombay Blues Curries & Kebab - St Jones

  Overall 7.8 - Food 8, Ambience 7, Value 8, Service 8

  Went when it first opened and the food was lovely. The staff were very friendly. Ordered takeways so didn't stay and eat as it is more of a takeaway atmosphere   (See my reviews (2) - September, 2012)

• Hansan Vietnamese Restaurant

  - 525 Ellerslie-Panmure highway, Mount Wellington AUCK

  Overall 7 - Food 7, Ambience 2, Value 10, Service 9

  This is a regular local for me. Great value. You know what you're getting because there are pictures on the menu. Food standards are consistent regardless whether it's quiet or busy. Service is great in the sense that someone is always watching out for your next order, however not very personalised. Attendants are fast and effective in what they do.

  This is the type of place you want to go for a quick get together to enjoy some fast vietnamese food. This is NOT the place to go if you're looking to impress a date or work collegue with something special! I liken it to a giant food court with service. However, in saying this I think it's a gem in the rough - definately a fast favourite of mine :)   (Kitty007 - August, 2012)

  Overall 7.8 - Food 8, Ambience 8, Value 6, Service 9

  I find this the best restaurant out west. Concise menu, all good. Stand-outs: Calamari salad (love the tamarind chilli sauce) and Buffalo Wings (original authentic style which isn't done anywhere else here) Great wine list, great staff.   (Takahe 2012 - August, 2012)

• Raviz Indian Cuisine - Hobson Street - Auckland CBD

  - 61A Hobson Street, Auckland CBD AUCK

  Overall 4.3 - Food 7, Ambience 3, Value 6, Service 1

  The food is normally pretty good at Raviz, but the service is terrible. Last night, after re-confirming our order, the meal still came out wrong, the the wait was so long between courses. They didn't clear our plates and they forgot to give us the drinks we ordered.   (Kelly - August, 2012)
