We had reservations and got a lovely table near those windows. They recommended sharing plates so we had the pappardelle which comes with a lamb ragu, the monk fish, and the cauliflower side. The main courses were excellent. The ragu was a nice comfort food with a rich taste over homemade noodles. The monk fish was light and tropical with a fennel and fruit side. These two dishes were nice compliments of each other. The cauliflower wasn't my fav but it was more of a personal taste so don't keep me from having you try it. I chose a local wine which was delicious. Love trying local wine when possible. We walked from our hotel so no parking worries. Service was excellent.

The entire area is clean, lively and fun . . . and Giraffe is no exception. You smile and feel welcome, just walking into the place. There are also outside seating options, on a patio that is well covered and sheltered. Staff is incredibly cheerful, friendly, full of energy . . . and easy on the eyes, too. The service is exceptionally good. When we arrived, without a reservation, they directed us to the bar, while a table was prepared and the bartender was great, as were the cocktails. A wonderful start. We liked the menu: a mix of locally sourced New Zealand dishes with wonderful flavors. Every plate we had was perfect. I particularly loved the short ribs. And, deserts were yummy too . . . and presented in an "oh . . . Wow!" kind of way. We would have gone back again and again, except that there are so many options in the area, and we wanted to try as many as we could!

Location is excellent- right in the heart of the CBD - and the food is all excellent! We loved it so much we ate here several times on our trip. The space is huge with plenty of small, intimate tables or large family style tables if you're feeling sociable. The building is one of Auckland's historic buildings dating back to 1910 and the space is decorated so nicely. Definitely a great spot to relax and hang out. The seating in the core is totally British pub style with dark wood tables, benches, and dim lighting to add to the ambiance. The seating around the outer rim is lit with skylights above and decorated like the streets of Europe. And all around the walls you'll find some really fun neon Asian street signs - such an interesting mix and makes it really fun. Our fave restaurant is Lepak. They serve up Malaysian deliciousness and our fave dish was the Nasi Lemak - coconut rice, chicken curry, nicely fried egg - fabulous!! We got this several times and it was consistently excellent. We also tried their chicken satay, Malaysian milk tea (hot), and mini curry puffs - all of it was lovely - highly recommend! Our second fave is Bao Baby Bao - their buns are soft and delicious- especially the Angry Bird Bao which is like a mix of bao buns and trendy hot chicken. We also tried the pasta carbonara from De Niro on one visit - it was just ok, a little heavy and a tad bland but otherwise ok. The Asian food genre is definitely the way to go here imo. Prices are pretty reasonable, especially by US standards - and the quality is definitely there. It gets pretty packed but we always found a seat easily. Staff were all welcoming and friendly. They have large, clean bathrooms but I'm not sure about the parking situation since we walked from our hotel in the CBD - it's a very walkable city.

I ordered a lamb curry and some roti and just because I wanted to try it I also got 1 piece of the fried chicken. It was all really good, but honestly the chicken was the best part. Excellent flavor, cooked perfectly and just a little spicy. If I ever go back here I will probably go for the fried chicken meal. I had wanted to try one of the sweet roti options for dessert, but by the time I finished the chicken, roti and most of the curry, I had no room left for more.
