The Vineyard Bistro Okurukuru

What a place, very visually appealing and the view over the ocean was great. The service was good friendly but didn't know the menu well, couldn't answer some basic questions on dishes. The food was delicious however the price compared to the size, not good. 2 pieces of smoked salmon in the poke bowl and $45 for a basic gurnard, disappointed.

We came.here for a staff due and sooo amazing. The view is absolutely breathtaking, the smoke area is nice and spacious and the restaurant is beautiful. There is a large lawn area aswell as a playground so it is definately suitable for children and also functions. The food was just delicious. I was full off my pork belly and desert WOW! I think the price is alot for a standard family but definitely worth it if you went in as a couple xxx

We had such a nice night. The fire was going and it was really nice and warm, perfect temp. We got the paua ravioli entree, this came out super fast and was delicious. Then We had the lamb rump and the pork belly. Everything was perfection. The view out to the ocean was relaxing and just such a nice chilled atmosphere. We ended the night with the chocolate brownie. The service was great.

Incredible venue with food that both satisfies any cravings and exceeds any expectations. Best food we've had in NZ, hands down. The preparation, presentation and balance of flavors in every dish we had was impeccable. This is a must stop if you can!

Stopped in for a wonderful evening meal. Breathtaking views, staff were friendly and the service was great. I had the king prawns to start followed by the confit of duck and the crème brûlée. Each course was delicious and wonderfully presented. Highly recommend and will be heading back to try other courses
