Asian fusion, but not as you know it. Dragonfly offers a diverse menu, with tempting mains and share plates. I opted for some small dishes, as I didn't have a large appetite. Potatoes in a coconut sauce was new for me, and surprisingly it worked very well. Excellent cocktails. Professional and prompt service throughout the night.
Saturday night dinner with my partner. We didn’t book but got a nice table. Friendly & attentive service.
Really tasty food - we had a few dishes to share : mushroom bao’s, okonomiyaki, seared tuna, duck spring rolls and jasmine rice. Plus a couple of yummy cocktails followed by a glass of white wine & beer.

First time here today and omg the food is just so
Amazing and delicious, everything is so fresh and wakes up your tastebuds! We were greeted and showed to our table as soon as we walked in and our orders were taken pronto. Love the ambiance and the feel of the place, it’s just so lovely, the drinks we ordered were refreshing and the entree followed not long after that which was just wow..delicious !!!!!!! I absolutely loved the perking mushroom Bao’s, it’s a must try, the buns are so soft and every bite is full of deliciousness! The ginger chicken dumplings are so very delicious And so was the 3 cheese parcels, don’t think I’ve ever had such great dumplings before!!! Our mains were super yummy as well and so was the dessert, the plum and tamarind tart which my boy ordered was so delicious that I regret not ordering one for myself. I have used the word “delicious” so many times because it just is !!!! some of the best food I’ve have had in ages, it’s just mouthwatering. I really can’t wait to go back and try more. It’s a 10/10 for me overall.
Came here for Wellington On A Plate, tried the Bangkok Burger, paired with Garage Project DFA and it was amazing. The various elements of the dish went together so well. To give you an idea I normally NEVER even touch coriander, but with this dish so perfectly balanced, I actually ate the raw coriander along with the Clareville Pandan bun, Thai Green Curry crumbed deep fried free range chicken chicken, shallots, green papaya, coconut and lime relish, pickled green pepper, spiced eggplant. Imo this burger beat the competition by a country mile. Served with shoestring fries sprinkled with Nahm Jim salt. Absolutely delish! Wanna try the other mains now. Very impressed
Went here last night with my partner for dinner, the restaurant was all full so we were told to go down to the bar area which was WAY better than the restaurant anyway with the same menu.
Service was impeccable, we were seated with menus and water straight away. Orders taken and the server kept coming back with water and asking if we needed more drinks etc plus cleared away anything we were done with.
The food was beyond amazing! We had the twice cooked pork belly, edamame beans, Asian greens, fried rice, chicken dumplings and prawn shumai. Everything was delicious!
Every cocktail we had was delicious too! China Girl was my favorite of the evening!
Will definitely be coming back here, I dont give 5 stars often because not many places blow me away but this one sure did!!
Dragonfly is such a nice restaurant to go to with a group of people, you can try lots of different things from the menu. I would recommend the pork and chive dumplings, pork bao, pork and prawns and the Asian greens
Take out after too many martinins. Korean fried chicken is good. Pork bao i wouldnt bother with. Three cheese parcels are insane! Must have if you like sharp cheeses. Dumplings were ok nothing crazy. Egg fried rice also very good. Would probably eat at the venue when i get back to wellington.
Good service, friendly and quick. Nice setting in the courtyard at the back. Food was all good but the Beef short Ribs and and Bao buns were amazing!
Delicious food. Served in a timely manner, no long waits. Atmosphere was great, low lighting and not too loud. Neat art on the walls too! Def recommend this place, and we will be back. $140 for 3 of us, 2 entrees for the table, drinks each and mains. No room for dessert sadly.
Loved this place! Food is delicious and well presented. Service is great too. A bit pricey for the amount you get but definitely worth it. Cocktails are a must-try!
This place is always super busy. This Japanese Asian fusion restaurant is absolutely packed during the weekends. Even though today is Monday, most seats were taken. Their food and service never disappoint us. All the people I know always say good things about this place.
Tonight was no exception. We had their Coconut Squid to start with. Their preparation is unique, and their squid is so tender and delicious. We also shared Sticky Pork Belly, Salmon 2 Ways, and Sesame Noodle Salad from the main course to share. They were absolutely divine! This place offers some unique seasonings and presentations compared to many places that offer similar tastes or food. We shared their
Star Anise Panna Cotta and Korean Twisted Donuts for dessert. They were both really tasty.
We were so full and happy with all the food and friendly service. Thank you for the great food and time! We loved our evening there tonight. We totally recommend this place.
Food and service were great. The beef short ribs were out of this world, as were the potatoes.
It is just on the Courney Place street, but don't believe Google map - it took us the long way around in a rainy day...
What we liked the most are the China flower mocktail, Taiwanese chicken, tofu dumplings, red duck curry and egg fried rice.
Really lovely Welly restaurant in Courtney place. The cocktails were yum, half price for the classics. Service was great we had a two hour slot allocated and food was delicious. The mains are really generous.
Such a successful night for a big group of people! The banquet menu was customised and those with dietary requirements were taken care of very thoughtfully. It was a great way to try a bit of everything on the menu and staff were very attentive to us at the table. Food and drinks were served quickly and it felt private enough but still quite central within the dining area. Thank you so much to the staff for a wonderful and memorable dinner! ❤️❤️
What an amazing experience, who knew that this amazing place with the most beautiful scenery’s and the most relaxing vibe, could be tucked away behind such a busy street. The food was outstanding and customer service was top notch. Look forward to dinning here again.
Great atmosphere and service with really tasty food. Would recommend the popcorn chicken and yellow fin tuna as starters. The duck curry and beef short rib mains were incredible. Went on a Wednesday which was their mystery wine night and got a glass of red for £8.
Awesome Asian fusion cuisine, in an awesome restaurant in central Wellington.
Food was quick to our table of 10, beautifully cooked and presented.
A great array of cocktails, alcoholic and non-alcoholic.
Busy place with amazing food. Even though the place was full on a Friday night, exceptional food and excellent service. Was really impressed, would definitely recommend for an Asian infusion of flavors.
Dragonfly in Wellington is an absolute hidden gem! The seating area is inviting, and the bar exudes tranquility. Their creative cocktail menu is a real treat. While there could be a bit more variety for vegetarians, the options they have are delicious. The ambience is top-notch, and the friendly service enhances the experience.
