Very good food, everything was amazing! Love the vibe of the place, perfect for date nights! Loved the eye fillet beef carpaccio! It just melts to your melt like heaven! Mushroom pizza with Blue cheese was excellent too! Loved every bite of it!
Highly recommend and will come back to have a date night with my partner.
Four of dined us in the Portico area of the famed SPQR in Ponsonby last evening. Chef Luis visited out table and suggested the Sirloin Steak and asked 2 of us how we would like it cooked. It was cooked to order and to perfection.I like mine ‘blue’ and that is exactly how it came out. Our waiter, a charming Englishman called Yorke (with an E) was engaging, funny and he made our night most enjoyable. The portico area of the eatery allows you be able to see what is going on around you, a quintessential part of the SPQR experience. Such a good places to people watch….Really! Another waiter named Bailey was also charming and entertaining along with the lovely Olivia and the Floor Manager, Maryanne came by and introduced herself to us and provided some good old Kiwi Hospitality. Hard to beat the mozzarella and tomato salad and to finish off with the old staple of the Sticky Date Pudding with freshly made ice-cream. It was divine. SPQR gets a clean bill of health and has more than earned its place on Ponsonby Rd as one of the best.
SPQR has almost immediately become one of my favorite places to visit. The staff are some of the most lovely and considerate people. The food is to a very high standard and always delicious, drinks are unique and beautiful. The atmosphere is gorgeous and a soft dark romantic kind of vibe. Highly reccomend.
