This pub was comfortable and they had a fire going, which was nice on a winter day. Good beer selection and basic snacks.

Zaika Moroccan Grill & Bar - Wedges ($5.00 NZD)

Zaika Moroccan Grill & Bar

4.3(3 reviews)

After a long drive from Nelson, we arrived into sleepy Greymouth and immediately looked for a place…read moreto grab dinner. Not going to lie, there's not much choice. We settled on Zaika, a Moroccan restaurant. We dropped in on a Saturday evening (around 7:30pm) to a packed house. The inside has a strange layout; they don't make full use of their space very well. Service is friendly enough but they were running around and seemed to forget about us. Pay at the counter when you're done. The menu is split into starters, Zaika bowls, Zaika wraps, pita pocket, Zaika salad, kid's meals and a royal platter. The platter ($49.90 NZD) sounded tasty and a good way to share. - Wedges ($5.00 NZD) - this was actually a good portion size. Decent seasoning and most of the wedges were crispy. The sauce/aioli was neutral but tasteless. - Grilled fish Zaika bowl ($17.50 NZD) - we decided to share a bowl and asked for half Arabic rice and half couscous. For the salads, we picked corn salsa, grilled vege and carrots & beet. Sauce was hummus but it was different than what we expected. They mixed it in with the rest of the ingredients. We also got our bowl medium spicy but it was only in the tiniest manner. Fish was perfectly grilled but it was soooooo salty. Sad because it ruined the flavours. Everything else was tasty and nutritious. Try the lamb instead (our second choice).

Very tasty, affordable food and friendly staff. Looked at their website and got the impression this…read morewas a very upscale (and probably expensive) place. It was not. Quite casual and quite comfortable. They have ample seating and I believe do a good bit of take-out business. Several beers on tap and a pretty good wine selection. Just passing through town, but if I lived here I'd be a regular!
