Before I begin, allow me to give you some back ground on this place.. when this place came to town…read morethere was much talk about this, both in the positive sense and the negative sense & I really wanted to go check this out for my self to see if the talk really did live up or was it simply a case of opening jitters. I was told we did not need a booking to come here and to just turn up, at 6pm that's exactly what I did and when we arrive the place was near full & it looked liked the waitress was going to have to turn us away when she asked had we made a booking. Thankfully enough with a smile on her face, come with me i'll find a place for you and right she did. I have previously been to LoneStar before in the city so sort knew what to expect, that the ribs are huge & the steak is about the same. Looking at the menu I was not sure if I was hungry enough to eat through the ribs or should I try something completely off left field and go with the fish. My guests all went with the Ribs & Steak and dared me to try something different like the fish. The fish of the day was a sea run Salmon with a potato hashcake and a salsa topping. But first we ordered the Garlic Bread and when it first came out we were all amazed, only to be surpassed by the smell & the taste. The experience of cutting your own hot baked bread and spreading garlic whipped butter was definitely the highlight of the night. The only thing I can say against this was that, we could have used with more butter. Sometime after forty minutes our mains came out, I guess with a very busy restaurant forty minutes isn't so bad, in waiting. What was puzzling tho was our mains didn't all come out at once and were staggered, so we didn't get to eat at the same time which was a little bit disappointing. The salmon was the last to come out and to be honest I was pretty underwhelmed when I saw it, for the highest price on the menu it was the lowest in value. Why didn't I stick to ordering the ribs or the steak!! Lesson learned. The service was good and attentive, the place had a good vibe going along with it. Since there are two cowboy themed places to dine, I think LoneStar is a bit more spread out where as the other place has a riding bull to watch while you drink. Both places both serve their purpose well. Will I come back here again? Yes - what will I get? - The Ribs! or a Steak! - stay away from the Fish It will leave you feeling ripped off and cheated... I know because that's how i felt!. I am happy to rate them as follows; Food 3.5 / 5 - Avoid the Fish.. Stick with the Steak or Ribs Service 4 / 5 - Warm, Friendly & Accommodating Price $32.00 - Fish Overpriced for what you get, $29 Steak - Decent offering Atmosphere 4/ 5 - A good vibe going on here. Overall - 4 /5 - Lived up to my expectations on what I have heard

Nineteen Eighty One is a great local restaurant in Manukau, right opposite the Westfield Shopping…read moreCentre. It's a fairly new establishment in the area, but it's become a regular hangout for a few beers and very good food. You definitely feel the '80's vibe when you're there, and its always nice to see a little appreciation for that era. Their pizzas are delicious, particularly 'Rangi's Hangi' and 'Larry the Lamb'. They do a very nice caesar salad and my favourite main has to be the crispy chicken burger with aioli and melted brie- one of the best restaurant burgers I've had. They've got a good range of ciders and do a few cocktails to quench your thirst. They also serve most of their drinks in 600mL milk bottles, which is a really cool touch. I'd have to say that Nineteen Eighty One is best known for their fortnightly Wednesday quiz nights. The place gets packed and its always a good laugh- there's even a prize for the team that comes second to last.

The service was attentive but not necessarily friendly. I ordered a kombucha and the grain bowl, my boyfriend ordered a burger. I was happy to find a place that catered to both of us, as I'm vegan and my boyfriend will eat anything. It's rare to find a place where we can both get something we want. The food and drinks came out quickly and everything was really good. The grain bowl was hearty and filling, and my boyfriend ate his burger in like 2 minutes. The restaurant is really cute, I loved the casual beach vibes. It's very Raglan :) We paid inside before we left and I bought a raw caramel slice for the road. It didn't make it too far down the road, I ended up eating it only 5 minutes after we got in the car. It was rich as, super caramelly and chocolatey. Absolutely 1000% amazing and exactly what I needed to finish off a great meal. My boyfriend and I split the bar, which was a great idea as I couldn't down something that intense after a huge grain bowl. We were both full for like 7 hours after our meal here, it was so good and that raw bar really hit the spot. I think the food was fab, but we didn't get the excellent service that it seems others got here :( Still, I'd go back if I was in Raglan!
