We were visiting Christchurch and staying in Sumner Beach area. Went into the small town for dinner at this amazing restaurant. Great service and amazing food. We especially enjoyed the character of this restaurant being a locally owned family restaurant. Friendly service was great and enhanced our overall experience. Everything we ate tasted fresh and full of flavor. Highly recommend this restaurant.
Sony Alexander, 8 months agoThis place is an absolute gem! The pizza was spot-on—crispy crust, rich sauce, and just the right amount of cheese. The blue cheese salad was surprisingly addictive (even for me who is not a fan usually), and the calamari was light, crispy, and gone in seconds. Washed it all down with a great drink, and honestly, I couldn’t have been happier. Cozy vibes, friendly service—just one of those places I’m glad to have found, and keep coming back!
thiri naing, a year agoIt was absolutely lovely lunch! Food portion was pretty good, we were full until dinner time. We had Fried chicken, croquettes, Duck fat potato, market fish of the day and Steak sando. Everything was amazing, nothing to complain really. Although it was Saturday lunchtime, pretty quiet so we could enjoy our time there:) We'll come back for dinner one day!
