Came here for a friend's birthday party. Although the dinner menu was a special catering menu, it was good food. Portions were good and the service was amazing, complimented the party well. The lighting was a little dim for a large group catering but there is enough space for large groups which is good. (We had a group of around 20, which they had a private room around the back behind the bar).
7/10
Quick prompt service, great selection of yummy food. Been going here for years, they have never disappointed me
Overall - nice place in good location. Great food
Food: Good selection of cabinet and menu food. I dug into poached eggs on toast, a relatively sedate meal but nice.
Service: We were told it would take a while as they were short staffed but it was a bit excessive. One of our group had to wait about 30 minutes for his coffee - he was desperately seeking a coffee to attempt to cure the previous nights affairs....
Ambience: Nice place, not noisy despite being busy
Group of friends down here for Wellington on a Plate. Ambience filled restaurant bar for everyone. Kids area, outdoor garden area, seating in corner nooks, booths etc. Eclectic trendy environment with great happy staff, good tucker and beverages. Would come back here when in town.
Always fun coming here. The giant Jenga is always a good party game! Also the pork belly dish is excellent. Great place to hang with friends and relax after a long week
What a nice place! The staffs were excellent and very helpful. The food was great, the eggs were cooked to perfection. Would go here again for dinner next time!

Very nice stonegrill for its value!
They have often have 1 plus 1 offers.
Good atmosphere, good service, good quality
What a fantastic way to end our amazing weekend in Wellington! The place is absolutely gorgeous, awesomely decorated and laid out and so comfortable, I could hang there all day and not tire of being there I’m sure. It’s gorgeous and has so many different areas that are equally as beautiful as the rest.
The staff are so wonderful! The girl that served us was a pure delight!! We all absolutely loved her.
I got the vegan portobello benedict with cashew hollandaise with added hash browns, which I didn’t need cause I was so full!!! But, hash browns, I couldn’t not right? The meal was so very delicious, like give a mouthgasm type delicious. And the hot sauce they have is amazing, I wish I’d taken a photo of the hot sauce because it made my hot sauce loving taste buds dance. It was pure perfection with my breakfast that’s one thing I know for certain.
My daughter made up a breakfast from the sides of giant beans (which she said were the best beans in the entire universe - I tasted them and said I think she’s right), hash browns and avocado with sourdough toast. She was so happy with her breakfast that she said she wanted to rewind and go there for breakfast yesterday too.
We were going to go there for dinner on Saturday night as well but had decided not to for some ridiculous reason. Boy did we regret that decision when we were there for breakfast.
I will be going back, every time I’m in Wellington.
Popped in for a family dinner, 4 adults and two kids. Great relaxed atmosphere, plenty of seats, inside and out, heaters outside too and so welcoming for kids. Brilliant so far. Ordered eye fillet, two buddha bowls garlic breads, cheerios, stonegrill surf and turf, mini hotdogs, gluten free beers, nz whisky, lemoney lemonade and a couple of spiders.... phew! Cant fault the food, great checking with allergies and adapting if needed, eye fillet was perfect and the stone grill is a real novelty! Thoroughly enjoyed it, service was great too. Would revisit and reckon you should try it if you are looking for a family spot.
Have been a couple times and love this restaurant. Cool vibes, love the movie nights. Really good menu variety and well priced, love that it caters to dietary requirements too. Recommend the stone grills, have had the marinated tofu and mushroom option, very good!
Delicious food, lovely and friendly staff . We had the stone grilled eye fillet . It was so juicy and perfectly cooked as requested .The atmosphere was so chilled and warm ,we really did enjoy our 13th anniversary at Southern Cross garden Bar restaurant.
A great lunch experience. Great menu with enough to choose from. Reasonable vegetarian options. Wide variety of drinks and well stocked bar. Great atmosphere. Inside and outside area. Well located.
Came here for dinner tonight. Awesome service! Amazing food. We got the buttermilk chicken burger. It was so yum and had heaps of flavour. The chips had a nice seasoning. Everything that came out for other people looked good. Currently not drinking so got an iced chocolate. Milkshakes aren't available after 5pm. The iced Chocolate was so yum! We got the cakes out of the cabinet. I think it was Passionfruit, white chocolate and oreo cheese cake and the other one was Chocolate and Raspberry slice. Really yum! Will be back.
Went to Southern cross at the weekend and forgetting it was Father’s Day so it was (very) busy. Did have to wait a bit for food but it’s understandable when just about every single table was taken. Lovely outdoors area, cold drinks and good buzz and music. Special mention to Jack who was smashing it. Literally seen the boy do everything - pouring drinks, taking orders, serving food and every thing in between and still looking calm and giving great customer service!! Well done team should be proud of yourselves!!
Had a great dinner here. Service was really good, great cocktails and yummy food. First time dining at Southern Cross, very enjoyable experience.
Absolutely perfect place to hang out friends or family. It is very spacious with in and outdoor space to choose. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
I love most of the food we ordered, but not really a fan of matcha tiramisu.
We booked for 4 persons with First Table.
We ordered their well known smashed burger bun with fries. And we ordered fish and chips. As desert we had their petition fours. All was excellent. Only thing I found the music played nice, but bit loud.
We celebrated my granddaughters birthday 🎂 and university degree results Last Saturday night 18 March 2023 here! I can't fault the venue, staff or food. The room allocated to us was perfect for the size of our party, gave us privacy but with every facility at hand . The staff were friendly, and nothing was a bother. The food and the drinks of course were divine! It was a wonderful night and everyone loved it!
Great place to visit and have a good meal.
There are many options in the menu and a lot of space inside even it has a garden with tables..
It was so amazing experience for me, feel so happy celebrate my birthday with you guys, food was so good.
Only one things for the service if you can do taking order straight away on the table for the guest that’s will be more great.
We don’t need go to the counter order that’s little bit westing the time and look so crowded specially for the group👌👌
