This place rocks! Exceptional food, with an emphasis on seafood, great service and buzzy atmosphere. You can't book, so just turn up put your name down at the desk and go enjoy a pre-dinner drink at a nearby by (recommend Bellota just across the road). It's not a cheap night out, but it's one of my favourites in town.

Right at the doorstep is a great little walk to the top of Mount Albert - easy walk with a short but steady incline and a road around the top of the hill from which you can get a good view and perspective of Auckland. Takes 30 mins round trip walking from my place to get there and back at a reasonable pace.
