Our favourite Russell restaurant has reinvented itself as an Italian. Food was pretty good but not outstanding. Service was friendly if a bit inconsistent. The wine was excellent. Tables are now quite close together.
Such a lovely restaurant! We were here on our last visit a few years ago and it was again excellent. You can either sit outside or inside, I would recommend a table at the window if sitting inside as it has a very beautiful view over the water.
Booked in for a quick lunch with my partner, on arrival we were asked to wait at the bar for a bit while our table was prepared, and for this we were compensated with drinks on the house!
We ordered a selection of small dishes to share and loved all of them. Delicious fresh oysters & cocktails were
We thoroughly enjoyed dinner here. Delicious food-fish stands out, it is fully cooked blue nose, duck and pickled appetizers.
The service is very good, they have a good wine selection, and there are many local wines to choose from.
We were there that night and it was raining, so we had to sit in the
Enjoyed the food , the wine menu they give to dinners does not match the one on the website. Wait staff a bit disorganised, kept delivery wrong food to our table and others. Then they tried to charge for extra drinks we never had in the final bill. The food the atmosphere is great.
Had dinner here last night the waiter is very friendly and welcoming. The fire was going and gave off great warmth. This is the oldest restaurant in New Zealand has been open since the whaling times and is built on whale bones. We ended up sharing three entrees and it was very nice. Just the right a
We shared a bunch of the small plates which were all delicious! The negroni was A++ and a the kaffir lime margie was the perfect dessert. Service was prompt and polite, the servers all knew the menu and were confident about the ingredients. The refurbishment has added a fresh and cosy feel. Well don
Thoroughly enjoyed the meal here. The service is really friendly. If you look for that old fashion kiwi service with big smiles and always seem to have been able to put a chat on between there super busy night, this is the place. The food, well, check out those pictures and they do taste as good.
Dinner at the Gables Osteria & Enoteca on the waterfront in Russell, marked the end of five wonderful days visiting Northland. A lemongrass Margarita each set the tone for a throughly enjoyable, understated five star evening.
Keeping it simple, we shared olives with homemade Focaccia, followed by me
A lovely place for a romantic dinner, highly recommended the food we tried but suggest you order off the menu and don't have the "tasting menu" chef's choice. At $69 per person you get better choice ordering per plate. We would have preferred some of the other options. Service was fabulous.
It's been a number of years since we ate at Gables for a variety of reasons, and we were really delighted with our meal. The steak tatar (italian version) was one of the best we had. It was a lovely evening.
Most standout meal we have had in some time. All facets of the evening were exceptional: the food, the wine, the ambience, service and the view. An evening to be remembered. If you love quality food prepared with skill, then try it out
Food was fantastic. Great to sit outside and right on the water
Even when the power went out for this side of the peninsula they came out with candles and the food kept coming
excellent service, fast, hot and even my kids loved the food.
the only small complaint would be if you order a glass of spar
Love the new fit-out and Italian cuisine offering! A great place to spend some good time with friends and quality food & drinks.
Amazing service. Amazing & well presented food. Terrific location. Allie was friendly & efficient. Seemed a nice vibe amongst the staff. Had grilled fish and salad and highly recommend it. I’ll try the lamb next time though!
The new menu, food, everything absolutely superb. A taste sensation. The platter was magnificent. The carne cruddo belissimo! The gnocchi to die for. The semifreddo to live for.
Don't walk past this place if you fancy a really great meal in a romantic setting. The exterior can lead you into thinking that this is a place that's a bit stuffy - but the food and service here is absolutely excellent. I had the oysters and the fish and chips and my partner had market fish - all w
We had a very enjoyable dinner, the Restaurant was fairly busy but we weren’t left waiting. The staff are very attentive. Thank you
Good food and nice service
