Lovely restaurant in the Novotel Tainui Hotel. Fabulous Eye Fillet Steak which you cut with a butter knifes. And the meat in the Venison Pie, melted in your mouth. As for the Chocolate Pannacotta, yum. Thanks to Mereana and Myana for looking after us on the night.

Went here for my birthday and we ordered the skirt steak and mascarpone filled bread rolls entree, pork belly with thai slaw and the steak on mash with mushroom rare. For desert shared the ginger and pear cake.
The skirt steak was beautiful and cooked to perfection with kimchi and sugar brittle and pork crackling a real pleasure to eat. The rolls while full of flavour were disappointing as they were not warm.
Mains were stunning, steak was rare and well rested not cold in the middle. And the pork belly was tender and sweet both a delicious choice.
The desert came on a plate with happy birthday written on it, put a smile on my face. The ginger flavour was strong and the ice cream side was well frozen and didn't melt quickly.
Service was fast and the staff very friendly. Will go again.

Nice place to have a relaxing atmosphere. It’s cosy with attentive staff. The location is convenient as there are plenty parking available on site. The food is nice but there is some room to improve.

Friendly, attentive wait staff with food served in a timely manner. Very well thought out dishes that were bursting with flavour. Great dining atmosphere with views of the Waikato river.

Food was great, service was friendly, and the ambience had an air of sophistication. The meal was a bit pricey ($127 for two mains, glass of pinot, side veges, and a dessert). The staff knew the specials and were easygoing yet professional.

Great selection of food for buffet breakfast. Children under 12 is free and $32 for adult at the time of writing. Clean environment.

Amazing experience once again at this fabulous restaurant. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted by their friendly staff. Attending on us was Dom, friendly, approachable & made us comfortable.
Their scotch fillet & beef tartare were divine. Tender, juicy and oozing with deliciousness. Tasty & warm enough to our palate. Steamed veg crunchy & yet not too hard. Simply awesome meal. To top it all was the mouth watering dessert of French macaroons, brownie w/ vanilla icecream. A happy anniversary for is indeed. Thanks Chef & Dom. You guys rocked!!!

We ate here for dinner as we were staying at the Novotel, and we were really impressed by the food. We had the seafood chowder, 700g rib eye to share, and the apple tarte tatin and sticky date pudding. The dishes were well presented and the flavours balanced. We booked the restaurant deal through the hotel which was amazing value, but would have been very satisfied even at full price.

Great quality food with friendly service.
However, there can be bit of delay in service which is understandable but would improved.
Had Garlic bread as starter Venison for main and Tiramisu for dessert.
Not 100% sure if entree and dessert is freshly made from kitchen but Venison was outstanding.

We've had dinner here many times and its consistently good! Even bar snacks and a drink after work are a real treat!! Great professional service and nice quiet atmosphere.
There is sometimes a wait for dinner but its worth it

I had an amazing Valentine's day dinner here. The server called Tayla treated us so nicely. Also while paying, my husband's phone had a problem with internet so could not use digital coupon, another server eased our panic and helped us out. I definitely visit here again.
