Solid as per usual. Courgette flowers as a special were very good. Crispy and packed with mozzarella and ricotta. Pizza with the white anchovies was great yet again. Love the pizza dough they use. Thin and has just the right amount of colour on it to add to the flavour.
One of the best Italian restaurant we've ever been! We are a south American couple (Argentina & Brazil), we went to Farina to celebrate my husband's birthday and we had a perfect night! The restaurant is in one of the best neighborhoods to go out on a Saturday night (Ponsonby), the atmosphere of the place is great! We highly recommend eating by the kitchen so you'll get to see how they're able to deliver the best service! The respect and perfection from the chef is so good to see and we want to stand out the organization and cleanliness of Mario! Our night was also pretty funny thanks to Ash! Quality food 10/10! Thanks Farina for this unforgettable dinner, we'll be back!
One of the best places for Italian in Auckland. Classic rustic Italian food, beautiful flavours, great Italian wine selection. There's so many things to enjoy about Farina's - the attentive staff, delicious food and comfortable atmosphere.
Ongoing reviews from different things we have eaten when dining at Farina:
We loved the flounder, clam linguine and crab ravioli.
The fish stew was superb. So much flavour and copious ammounts of snapper, octopus, prawns and tuatua (clams).
Hapuka wings and clams - delicious flavours and beautiful fish. Get some extra bread to mop up the sauce with.
My friend had the Beef Lasagna which he loved.
The Chianti is a great Italian red. Goes with pretty much everything on the menu. Totally worth getting at least one bottle for the table.
Finished with the delicious classic Italian dessert Tiramisu.
Another night of exceptional food and service.
