It's either Greek food is simply average Arabic food or I'm not a fan of Greek food…read more We ordered all of our dishes from Souvlaki Platters section: we went with the falafel, chicken and lamb. All of these plates come with Greek salad, pita bread, four different sauces and your choice of side dish (rice, potatoes, or French fries) The falafel was way below average. In the description they highlight it as crisp from the outside and moist from the inside, it was moist on both layers. Also felt very oily, should decrease the oil to get it to be crispy from the outside. The chicken was good but then again I like this dish so it's hard not to satisfy me. The taste is very similar to "sheesh taowe" from a Lebanese restaurant. I would recommend ordering the chicken dish. The lamb was just ok and again felt like "tikka" from a Lebanese restaurant so nothing special there. Finally we got the baklava for dessert. The portion was big (we ordered the big size they also do have a mini if you want to taste) and it was good. Again I tasted mush better in Turkish restaurants. Overall good restaurant if you want a middle eastern food in Christchurch.

This place was very busy on a Saturday, but we managed to get a table in the bar by at 6.15pm…read more Not being hugely hungry so early in the evening, we opted for 3 small plates - courgette hummus, salmon ceviche and house falafel. All delicious. I particularly like the seeded biscuits that came with the hummus. We washed that down with a nice Sauvignon, leaving just enough room for a passion fruit mousse {vegan, GF, DF}. A lovely meal, only marred by the ever-increasing volume from neighbouring groups, which by 7.15 had reached the shouting stage, to the point that any music being played was totally redundant! So yes, l lovely food, but try to get a table in the restaurant, not the bar!

Fiddlesticks is serious! I did not realize how long they've been around until I saw food pics here…read morethat are 10 yrs old. From the pics, it looks like they've really upped their game! We got in here on a Friday night without a rezy and so glad we did since most people have one. First time I've had an alcoholic ginger beer, with a twist of lime, so divine! Our server gave us the low down on what were the serious kitchen movers, which was spot on! We started with the fried chicken thighs appetizer, just brilliant presentation and tasty with homemade "ranch-like" drizzle, pickled onions, and micro greens. Our mains were the lamb and the grilled salmon. The attention to detail was impressive. The server explained that the potato's used for the lamb are roasted with wagyu fat, which have gave them a smoked, perhaps beefy flavor. The tastiest roasted potatoes I have ever tasted. The salmon was perfectly seared at medium rare, but I think my American palate has become use to medium texture, but still divine! My only suggestion would be to use French green beans as they are more tender than the typical green bean and would better compliment the presentation of the salmon, but that's just getting into the Minutia, perhaps the name for Fiddlesticks next location!
