    I was a bit suspicious because of the name. Federal? I eventually realized that is the name of the…read morestreet they are located on. It was open at the time I was in the area and it did look inviting. I perused the menu and decided to give it a try. Walking in I saw the old-fashioned furnishings, metal chairs, display cases, wall shelves, big bar in the middle all in a long and narrow room. Yessss, this looks lie something out of the 50s and I like it. After a long hard look at the menu I opted for the Salami platter... Strangely enough there wasn't salami, but more like a smoked ham, prosciutto like meat. It tasted great, so what's in a name. Delicious heirloom tomatoes, capers, salami impersonator, cream cheese, capers, pickles and your choice of bread. I had chosen crumpets and regretted that . Not because they weren't delicious, because they were so yummy, but they were also so buttery that I couldn't get the cream cheese to stick and everything I tried to put on the crumpet just slid right off them. I got the bottomless cup of coffee and I must say, this is really good coffee and the refills kept coming also. I love the atmosphere in here and there are so many great choices on the menu. If I ever come back tot Auckland, I will definitely stop by this place again.

It's a popular place and they were crowded but we didn't have to wait for a table. There was plenty of food for each order. My wife had a street dog and fries and I had a Ruben. They were pretty decent. I wasn't as happy with the fries. They were like the bottom of a pile and mostly little pieces with very few full length slices. Prices were extremely reasonable. I would definitely eat there again.

    This used to be my lunch spot for years when I was working in the area. Today I thought is the time…read moreto review it. I could safely say that I have tried everything on the menu, but if I am to pick favourites, I would say their satay chicken, chicken cashew and laksa are my favourites. A quick tip, their little satay is meant to be smaller and cheaper than the regular one but it honestly isn't. The difference is very minor your stomach won't notice it. Every now and then I got tempted to try their starters but I was never a big fan. Their takoyaki, however is good if you like them crispy. What I love about otto woo is how it's a food genre on its own. A great option for asian fusion food. It is fresh, delicious and satisfying without making you want to roll over and sleep immediately or suffer through an hours long heartburn. They have lots of gluten free options too which I think is great (they have them listed next to the wall menu). If in doubt ask the staff, they are really sweet. Check out otto woo nuffield if you would like a good meal on the go. Their mission bay branch and ponsonby branches are more lively if you would like to sit down and eat.

    There's a reason this place is award winning. It's probably the best noodle bar in the city. In…read morethis branch in particular, on the lovely Nuffield Street in Newmarket, the staff are always really friendly and knowledgeable about the food, offering helpful recommendations and warm greetings. It's only a really small place, so it can be annoying trying to get a table during busy periods but their handy takeaway boxes are perfect for taking into the park on a sunny afternoon. I'm obsessed with Laksa and the one here is really good, just the right amount of coconut and full of fresh, seasonal vegetables. It's $14.50, so about average for Asian food in the city, but totally worth it. Their entrees are cheap, around $6.50 so if you don't want anything too heavy, a couple of these make a great lunchtime treat.

    I love Little Bird's philosophy - raw, organic, health-giving meals - and think that Megan May is a…read moregenius but their prices for takeaway salads in Britomart are preeeeetty steep. $14.50 for cold courgette pasta w rocket & parmesan? $18 for a bird bowl salad? I don't know many people who could justify those prices for a takeaway salad! Prices aside, the food is delicious. The Britomart Store also stocks both the Little Bird products (try the macaroons - hard to believe they are healthy) and other products that fit in line with their ethos. Definitely worth checking out and if not picking up a salad, then trying one of their sweet treats.

    In a world where so many people have dietary restrictions this place is a god send …read more I agree it is on the pricey side but you're going to be paying a bit more to have a piece of mind that you can eat without feeling any side effects . I went for a passion fruit cheesecake it was nice, but after sitting down at the rather small table . Notwithstanding this place is more of a eat on the run type , I wished I had gone for a chocolaty type of slice or cake . They also sell takeaway salads which seem to be a substantial amount , but I've seen the same for less at other cafes . And you can buy bottled nut milks or tonics and if you return bottle you can get a small refund/ discount on your next bottled drink . That being said this idea of cuisine is new and original and as more people feel the need to be healthier for whatever reasons they will continue to exsist .
