Ordered the lamb blackstrap along with the chocolate desert. That blackstrap was amazing the layer of fat added a great texture, the 🍆 was a good addition and what was a nice surprise was the sour cream! 100% recommend this dish. The chocolate desert I wanted to get as it’s not something I would have normally gotten cause I’m expecting an element to be dark chocolate which I hate! But even though it was there it wasn’t over powering, the sorbet kind of cut the richness and sweetness

Great breakfast buffet selection. loved how the baked beans were homemade and not from a can! Even the sausages and hashbrowns tasted homemade too! Service probably needs to be worked on though. Great decor and extremely clean and comfortable.
We visited tonight to celebrate our recent engagement. After dining twice before, and enjoying the size of the meals we returned today to find a new menu which was well thought through, and means we must return to try the other options!
Beautiful and very tasty food. Lovely service, appreciated being asked if we had any dietary requirements prior to seeing the menu.
Complements to the chefs!
Just had the most absolutely amazing food experience here! Love the plate concept, sized between entree and main.. so hubbie and I had 2 plates and desserts each, the perfect amount. I thoroughly enjoyed my choice of Whitebait and Venison, faultless and the Pannacota was to die for! Loved it all.. food & service.. highly recommended... we’ll definitely be back!
I visited chameleon a couple months ago. I loved it. Still the best restaurant in town. Very lovely staff and delicious food.
Recommend it to everybody. Juan the restaurant manager has the best cocktails.
When I'll be in Wellington I will visit chameleon for sure. Regards to the management from berlin. You deserve to be #1.
Highly recommended - excellent food and top notch service. Their Mon-Fri business lunch is great value for money ($29 for dish of the day + any side + coffee/tea). I had it on two occasions - one was a fish dish and the other was steak, both were very delicious. Their truffle fries are really good too!
I have long been a fan of Chameleon Restaurant in Wellington, in fact, my Uncle took me here for lunch to celebrate my 16th birthday, oh so many years ago. Rather fitting then that I was joining the very same Uncle for breakfast all these years later. Chameleon (along with the Intercontinental Hotel it sits inside) has recently undergone a massive facelift. The interior looks much more modern and has some awesome touches added, like the hand wall.
Delicious food impeccably served. Great service as well. The special dessert nibbles for our birthday guests was amazing! We're looking forward to returning soon. The yellowfin tuna was to die for!
Booked a table for the wifes birthday, and took our two girls as well. Everyone was greeted on arrival which was nice and they had a wee range of kids entertainment items (pictures, colour pencils etc) ready to go. We ordered the fillet steak for the kids, easy option, was well cooked and an ample amount of food for the littlies. We ordered the soft shell crabs, crayfish, venison, duck and chowder, plenty of food for two people. Kids also had the watermelon ice blocks and wifey got a wee dessert platter as a freebie for her birthday! Now for the food, kids food, awesome, steak was cooked perfect and chips were hot fresh and crisp. Soft shell crabs were ok, flavours were mild and Im guessing that was to let the crab be the star of the plate. Crayfish was a very 'fresh' plate, more like a salad than a traditional way we would have crayfish which was really nice. I thought the venison was superb. I enjoyed every bit of the whole dish, duck was good too, both these last two dishes were full of flavour and 'heavy' rich dishes which I really enjoyed. We found that wifey enjoyed the lighter fresh ones and I like the heavier rich ones. The chowder was probably the star of the show, great deep rich flavours, not a heavy dish, full of various shellfish and rivals and chowder we have had anywhere before. Service was good and very professional. The dessert was very average for the kids, our kids love a good iceblock, and watermelon (who doesn't?!) but this tasted like it was mixed with straight sugar syrup which made them unpalatable for both kids and adults - the other dessert was absolutely amazing though, wonderful chocolate ganache type pops and bits of all sorts in there with a few pop rocks for good measure! We will likely be back for the chowder and or the change of season menu!
I ordered a vegan 6 course meal which was delicious and had 3 thoughtful dishes to choose from for the main. It was an impressive menu with helpful and attentive staff.
Wow, best restaurant in Wellington. Tasty food. Great customer service. Friendly staff.
Amazing food and fantastic service. Great deals for dbl or triple courses.
This place is a must for people who liked the exquisite dining. The vegan dishes are stunning
Food was great. But we were sitting under the air con and we all had jackets on but were not asked if we wanted to move. A bit disappointing.
Spectacular food and cocktails to match (Cake tin was the best cocktail I have had in New Zealand). Nice and relaxing ambience and very good service😊
Very happy with our dinner from here. It was very innovative and delicious. Meat came out a little red to our liking so we asked for it to be well done and the fixed the issue quickly.
Delicious food and great location, underrated as one of the top restaurants in Wellington.
Would recommend.
Business lunch is very tasty.
Nice quality and good mood.
I recommended this spot.
Great food and absolutely outstanding service. Elegant décor and a great location in Wellington's CBD.
Had an amazing lunch here, i had the duck and my friend had the snapper. Can not fault the food. Also amazing cocktails. As a couple we really enjoyed their 3 course Valentine's dinner with amuse bouche and palate cleanser added in. My aged beef tenderloin was so soft and tasty and the duck breast cooked to perfection. A lovely ambience too with friendly and fun wait service.
