I’ve only been here a couple of times and this review is based mostly on our most recent visit for my Husband’s birthday. It is best to book in advance because they get very busy and remember that there is a time limit for the buffet. Make sure you clarify with your servers what time you begin, and what time you end to avoid any confusion.
Ambiance 3.5/5 – The ambiance is quite average. There was ample seating though and the restaurant was well lit. For some reason I remember it being much bigger than it is now haha. We didn’t find it hard to navigate through the buffet and we appreciate our location in the dining room as we were very close to the food. For a buffet place, it was well presented but I thought the décor could be better.
Food 3.5/5 – We came here with a big appetite because it was a buffet. I really enjoyed the hot drinks on offer. The hot chocolate was suuuuper good that I had it a second time and it was actually the last taste I wanted, so I had it before we left. I didn’t enjoy the salads much that night as the dressings were not as pleasing to me personally. I was so excited about the potato salad, but I felt the radish didn’t belong. I liked the prawns and mussels, but thought it could be fresher I suppose. We really enjoyed the champagne ham. The steak looked really nice, but was very tough to chew ☹ I really liked the garlic bread. There were a lot of hot food on offer, but not everything was enticing to me personally. I wished they served more “familiar” options. I have a similar sentiment with the desserts. Last time I went there were eclairs and a blueberry cheesecake. They had a lot of options still for dessert and everything looked lovely! But the flavours were just too different. In saying that, I did have the strawberry cheesecake (which looked like a mousse) and the fruits for dessert. Hubby really enjoyed the soft serve and toppings. I loved the cheese and crackers and the bread ranhge on offer. I also really loved and enjoyed the taco/burrito/nacho station. In the end, we were still very full and if you were creative, you could mix and match a lot of the food on display to make different things 😊
Staff and Service 5/5 – Everyone there was so lovely and kind. When hubby and I were inquiring about other drinks, the server who assisted us was knowledgeable enough to offer the unlimited soda option for my husband. Staff were always smiling and they were very attentive (Sometimes too attentive as one time they took my un-finished burrito that I was still eating, but that’s no biggie!).
Total: 4/5 - Overall experience was good and we think that we would like to give it another try. Looking forward to our next visit!
I had lunch here and the Desserts was the best. Pork belly also good.
More meats selection at lunch would be great. Also improvement on some of the deserts too, some of the slices were quite bland.
Fortuna is good value for money, make sure you book in your tables before heading there. Great range of food, nice and clean environment and staff is amazing! We come here regualry for family events. Never disappoints.
Celebrated a birthday there and was grateful for the small free birthday plate. Enjoyed the buffet dinner with my family which catered for all types of cuisines. Great range of seafood, European and Asian style meals. Drinks we paid extra and it was a help yourself to refill type of service. Adorable and reasonable priced for the meal. Good views and good service.
Thank You Fortuna, we had an amazing night, for Charlotte's birthday, thanks to your great food and outstanding customer service. Your staff are amazing. Thank You, we will be back
I’ve here for 3 times already. This is the most affordable yet elegant place to dine-in in the city. But you need to book ahead atleast 3days since this place is always fully booked. One time i tried to walk-in but there was no vacant. They have huge variety of foods from Seafood,veggies,meat,soup,asian food,european food,etc. if you are planning to celebrate your birthdays or any important celebrations, try to book this place. The negative side for this buffet restau, is the parking. The parking is so expensive. Almost half of your total expenses goes to the parking fee.
Had dinner with friends. My fav buffet place so far. Many option of foods, all arranged very nicely and looks appetizing. Clean environment, nice ambiance. Will come back, definitely.
My favorite lunch buffet place in Auckland. Come here a number of times. Each time felt satisfied with their food and services. Great value for money. Lots of deserts to choose from. If you have sweet tooth as me, you will enjoy their lunch. Drink price is very reasonable too.
I was to rate this buffet 5 stars due to the variety of food and value for money, however the taste of food was not great (I know it is a personal preference). They charged $77 for two adults and when you pay $5.50, you'll get unlimited drinks and I think it's a really good price. Their service was excellent and the staff was amazing. You get concession parking when you spend >$40. I would definitely go back there.
This is a perfect place to come with family or friends, the atmosphere is very pleasant and the attention at the tables is one of the best I have seen, they are always attentive when you need them and they are extremely careful in every detail
The best buffet in Aotearoa best value of money in fantastic quality and amazing ambiance. The new Fortuna has amazing selection Im not a fan of buffet as I feel I don't get thevalue of my money not until I came back to Fortuna after almost a year. Awesome selection from seafood hot and cold, melt in your freakinouth meats, fresh salad bar, DIY nachos, chicken wings, cheese selection what a delight. Love how spacious the area is it doesn't feel cluttered. Service was fantastic too. Highly recommended. Coming back for more!
Always worth every bite!!! Back to this amazing and lovely restaurant serving buffet dinner after 4 years. Offering variety of food, best desserts and drinks. Signs are visible, clean toilets and surrounding. Well mannered staff and efficient booking system. If you have not been to this place, please pay a visit, worth it 👍
Back again for my son’s birthday.
Great selection of food to choose from,popular dishes go fast,hot food can be a bit dry from the heat sitting there, but sushi and cold items are lovely to easy to over indulge...staff are amazing people.
Came here Saturday night 1/4/2023 for a family birthday dinner,quality of food service was great and the different dessert range was fantastic aswell as the hot dishes around the buffet ,Definitely worth it!
Went to celebrate my sister n laws birthday here this week! The atmosphere was great 👍 Food was amazing 👏 loved the nachos, butter chicken and the dessert was so good!
The caramel slice, toffee custard on pudding was the best!
For a tourist attraction location buffet, the prices are actually quite good! Also, usually buffets kind of have mediocre food, and the drawcard is that you can eat as much as you want of it, but we genuinely enjoyed many of the things on the line-up - especially the butter chicken!! For desserts, the caramel slice and the triffle were my favorites.
We had our 6 months in marriage lunch out in city. Food is so yum and really good. Not too cheap but not too expensive. Price just right and worth it. Dinner has more food options. But haven’t tried it and would like to come on dinner.
Value for money, plenty of choices. $5.50 unlimited soft drink is a great deal. Super friendly and helpful staff. My only issue was the food was not tasty. Desserts were amazing.
