I figured that New Zealand would have amazing seafood because of its location. But, I was not expecting it to be this good. They basically have some of the best fish and chips I've ever had in my life. It's fresh, perfectly seasoned and absolutely delicious. And it's located near one of the prettiest parks I've ever seen. I highly recommend taking your order there to enjoy an incredible meal, Kiwi style.

The local Parnellites know all about it though and it packs out on Friday/Saturday night. It's simply of the best fish and chip shops in Auckland - the fish and chips are quite dry and not the greasy shit you get in some takeaways. I always go for the snapper and the fish is good quality as is the batter. I often think the secret of good fish and chips is the batter and they get it bang on in this place. They also sell takeaway shellfish and you can get a little pot of fresh mussels to go with your fish and chips. I think the fish in chips in New Zealand is far better than you get in the UK and this is one of the best places to find it.

Only minor disappointment is that the spicy basil duck wasn't very spicy. Specify extra heat if you like It. But the kids loved the stir fry dishes. The pad Thai was excellent, and the chicken satay were also liked. The beef in black bean was a bit tough according to one child, but the flavours great. We will certainly be ordering again from Wok Express!

I ordered the Miso chicken katsu donburi - super tasty and delicious! Normally I stay away the "miso" sauces because I am always afraid it will be too salty - but this one was a great balance. Another favorite dish is the Renkon chips. I have had this dish at other places before, so I was expecting really finely chopped renkon pieces and deep fried to crisp. However Renkon's renkon chips (haha..) are like steak chips in the chip world. nice and soft on the inside, crispy on the outside... must order if you go here.

The place is bright and colorful, simple menu and what looked like good sandwiches. They also had drinks to go and fountain sodas. Unlike most restaurants in NZ, there wasn't water on the counter so I bought a bottle; they didn't tell me you could get it for free behind the counter. I ordered what sounded like a simple burger and some fries. I loved the packaging; cardboard wrapper that opened to hold it together. The beef quality was just okay; there was way too much sauce and mayo. The fries were too salty so I couldn't finish them. I had much better burgers later on my trip, this one isn't really worth the visit.

Stumbled upon this gem in a row of cute shops and restaurants on the way to the train station after…read morea long morning (and afternoon) of hiking up Mount Eden and shopping in Newmarket. Coming to New Zealand, I didn't anticipate on having a burger at all, but I was so hungry and didn't know my way around Newmarket, I think coming here was actually fate. I cannot tell you how fantastic the Lamb Burger was--the meat was so tender, the burger literally melted in my mouth. I'm not much of a beetroot eater (and I'm told this is a common topping in Australian and New Zealand burgers), but it was different in a good way. The bun was also really good, so no complains about the burger at all. We also got the Potato Skins with Truffle Aioli--amaaazing! They were hot and fresh when it came to our table and the chunky portions were more than generous. It's such a shame I'm almost 9,000 miles away because I'm craving a meal from this place at this very moment. The staff were a fun bunch, especially our waiter, Liam, who was full of laughs. Great place away to eat from the shopping madness on Broadway--Osborne Lane is a super cute and nice place to hang out.

There was only one beer available (a hazy IPA which was *mwah* so good!) the fries were more of a Dutch cut than shoestring, but they were also very very good! The pickle chips were sweet pickles; also tasty. It's a small place, with three tables and a long counter. There is an interior connection to the tavern next door. Service was great.
