Review The Oak Barrel - Mission Bay

Nice restaurant with a good food and the service was very good. The wine selection are massive. You can order wine of from display or by glass. The food is good for sharing. Nice Italian cuisine.

We ordered pizza for take away and had to wait quite long (~20 mins). As I’m from Europe the pizza was better than most other pizzas in Auckland but could not compete with Italian pizza. The place looks really nice and the wine assortment is quite impressive. The staff could have been more friendly.

Very cool spot on Mission Bay, kinda small though, but the red snapper fish and chips was delicious! So was the salad, chips were fine. House chardonnay from France was refreshing and very nice. Happy this place was open cause bad weather was looming but they braved the storm to offer excellent food and beverage. The wine selection was excellent, but it should be for the oak barrel! The beach and bay view were cool!

I’m not sure if I was just starving but the food was so bloody good!! I’m not a huge fish fan but due to recommendation, I ordered the market fish and I’m so glad I did. The fish was succulent and went surprisingly well with the risotto base and guac-like topping. Service was also lovely 😊

We are locals and always love having a Sunday Pizza night. The meat lovers and vegetarian are our go-to pizza! The staff are lovely, wine selection is great. Definitely one of the nicer, romantic casual restaurants in Mission Bay.

Had a wonderful experience here last week. I had the most delicious pork belly on a bed of bok choy and mashed kumara and I will 100% be back again. My friends mostly had delicious food with the only downside was how much of the seafood starter was deep fried but not disclosed on the menu (we were the first to order so didn't not see what it looked like until it was too late).

Friendly staff. Food was good but not great. Excellent wine selection at reasonable prices but be aware they see you a bottle and then charge $10 corkage.

Outstanding little woodfire pizza and wine restaurant. Pretty much the pictures tell you the wine list is extensive and the pizzas are exquisite. Whether you eat in or take away, it is a delightful experience savouring those mouthwatering pizzas. The location along the bay really makes it works as the views complement the meals. Top notch

I love this place!! Wood fire pizza, other meals are fantastic and seafood is so fresh. Staff is also friendly! I highly recommend this place💛

Been here multiple times and the food is always divine. The pork belly is particularly good, best in Auckland! 10/10

Wonderful atmosphere. Buki really looks after you. His wine knowledge is second to none. Enjoyable selection of Pinot noirs and other nz wines. Oysters were amazing. Cheese selection international! I’ll be back soon!

Great little pizza place and an awesome assortment of wines. Little bit different from your typical restaurant but it works so well. Amazing service. Went with my partner and will be going back again soon with friends.

Amazing food, great personal service and the idea of selecting your own wine from the wine rack is genius. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Mission Bay.

Love it. A great little find - this gem of a wine bar has great wood fired pizzas and some amazing mains. As well I dont live in this area or it would become home away from home! Wine by the bottle or glass. Amazing selection. Love it! ♡♡♡

Pizza was just delicious. Crumbed scallops were delicious. Service was good. World definitely go there again to try some of the other menu items.

A gem of a find on our trip to Auckland. Delicious wine and steak. Great service. We’ll be back!

Our favorite place on mission bay! Incredible wine, Buki is so nice and helpful and the food is great! The snapper ceviche and pizza is awesome. Could not recommend more highly! Have been back multiple times and will not stop :)

Lovely place to have interesting wines and a tasty bite. Excellent pizza!
