They do the best Karaage Chicken I have ever had (and I'm a big Karaage fan). They also do a stir fried broccoli dish which absolutely knocks my socks off.

The food is really good. Its not just gyoza here. The gyoza is amazing but we also ordered a variety of other food. The spicy chicken is yummy. The bao burger is good and fluffy. The agedashi tofu can be crisper. But overall very good

Wow! What a lovely little gem! We felt like we were in Tokyo again. Service was outstanding and the gyoza were the perfect mix of crispy pastry and moist tender filling. We had the beef and pork, plus cheese gyoza.. deeeeelicious! We also had beef tataki, katsu prawns, takoyaki and chicken karaage. Everything was fabulous 🥰

Lovely.
We were craving some drinks and casual Japanese on a warm Auckland evening, and The Gyoza Bar did not disappoint.

The karaage chicken pieces were tender and crisp at the same time, the takoyaki beautifully presented and on par with the any offerings from Kyoto food stalls (this is intended purely as a compliment to casual Japanese food), and the gyoza...
We started with the beef and pork, and went for the cheese gyoza for seconds. The pastry was fried to perfection, but not so to overpower the filling. The filling juicy and tender. The cheese gyoza were incredibly smooth and rich. It's safe to sum up that we left very satisfied.

The highlight of the evening was the customer service, attentive and very friendly, if a little slow (though in their defence only two members of staff were on, on a busy evening).
Drinks-wise we went for the plum wine and sake tasting flights, curated by the bar manager. Highly recommend the unfiltered sake and the citrus plum wine.

Did not stay for dessert, but we can definitely see ourselves returning to The Gyoza Bar for more.

Best gyoza in Auckland, super crispy and flavourful. Do not confused with Chinese dumplings as I feel other (poor) reviewers may have. They are 2 totally different cuisine!
Prawn katsu and tempura was not soggy and oily at all.
Very generous serving of the plum wine tasting set.
Would definitely come again.

Amazing staff and genuinely the best dumplings I’ve ever had! The takoyaki was absolutely suburb - and you can’t leave without tasting the cheese gyoza! Would 10/10 recommend.

Really nice atmosphere, warm welcome and good quality Japanese food. Worth a try . Good selection that is vegetarian friendly and I am quite fond of Japanese whiskey.

We came for one of their special events and had a blast! Such a cute space with lovely staff. The food and drinks were delicious! Our menu was special because of the event but given we ate a sampling of everything on that menu, I have no doubts their standard menu is equally as tasty! We will be back!

The food was delicious! It is also affordable. It was my first time coming at this restaurant; it looks simple yet fancy at the same time. Must try is their Ginza Combo. My friends and I thought that the combo will not be enough but they prepare enough servings so no need to order for more - unless if you're really keen to try their other food. I also recommend their fried eggplant with sweet sauce. I will definitely go back to this restaurant. Great place to eat and hangout on a Friday night.

Service was top class! Food was delicious. A must try! The wagyu beef is highly recommended along with the gyoza and kimchi! A staff named Mayuka's service made us feel at home! Went there 2 nights straight!

Bustling Ponsonby gyoza eatery 🥟 Traditionally inspired decor, menu and layout. Kind staff and good service - beer on tap and some delicious Nippon tapas 🎌 Lovely spot to share some plates, saki and chats 🍶🍤🍻 There is a bit of a fly problem in summer - bothersome to the extreme - and the service can be intermittent at times due to pace (food coming when ready but without warning of this). All round I thoroughly recommend a visit. Those dumpling oh mhy GHOD 🫠

Exceptionally friendly staff, beautifully decorated (even the bathroom looks good) and the food is excellent; at least the dumplings are. I tried pan fried, steamed, boiled and even some in a thick soup - all of them were delicious. Bonus: prices are very reasonable for both food and drinks.

Great food, loved the beef tataki and the dumplings comes with sauces that are different to the ones that normally served with gyoza. Big list of Japanese whisky too, so if that's your thing you are in luck!!

Everything about this restaurant is perfect- the atmosphere is great for any occasion, the service was top tier, and every dish was bursting with fresh flavour. It was date night so we opted for the Ginza for 2, added a jug of Asahi and were set for the entire evening. Each plate was perfectly portioned and exploding with a variety of tastes as we worked our way through the tapas selection. We experienced a dozen different items including delicious salmon, perfectly prepared wagyu beef and traditional teriyaki chicken. The meal was finished with two whiskeys (included in the Ginza package) which was ideal to relax and unwind before wrapping up the night. Will be returning regularly.
