There was a good selection of restaurants there, and definitely lots of happy hour choices, but nothing intrigued us. My Mom was after veggies, so I Yelped for Chinese food. There was only a few selections (only a handful of people use Yelp here). The one we chose was closed for a month for family holiday. Luckily, while I was driving to check out another spot, I came across an entire street of Chinese restaurants (Amohau St, Rotorua). There was 3 to be exact and we wandered into each one to have a peek at their menu. We chose to eat at Golden BBQ Seafood Restaurant and I'm super gad we did! The restaurant was well lit and spacious. The staff were friendly and helpful. The dishes were a good sized proportion. We ordered 2 dishes with a bowl of rice and were super stuffed after. 1. Four Season Green Beans w/ Beef & Mushrooms 2. House Special Deep Fried Tofu w/ Green Onions Everything was DELICIOUS!! Being Cantonese myself, I must say, they had their flavors on point! Bravo. It's rare to find good traditional Chinese food when on vacation. Overall, we were very happy with it dinner experience here :).

This little spot, smack in the middle of Eat Street serves up some VERY AUTHENTIC ITALIAN food,…read morejust about on par with the food we've eaten on our numerous trips to Italy. While the menu isn't huge, it was still quite difficult to choose among the tantalizing options but to make things even harder, they were also offering several nightly specials with even more great dishes. In the end we sTarted with the mixed Italian salad that was so wonderful - every bite bursting with the fresh taste of vegetables with a wonderful light dressing. One of the best salads I've had in a long time and chock full of artichokes, onion, fresh and sun-dried tomatoes and more fresh local organic vegetables. As all of their pastas are house made so we both opted for a tagliatelle-mine with the rich wild boar bolognese and my wife with traditional carbonara. Both were excellent but the wild boar just melted in the mouth. Very very good. We ordered a bottle of Chianti and were surprised to get one of those touristic bottles with the straw coating(come on Leonardo, you know better!)-my only complaint (although the wine was good). For dessert we got the Italian donuts with ice cream and raspberry sauce-not too sweet and a nice finish. Even though we weren't able to make a reservation (no one answered the phone), since we arrived early for dinner they were able to fit us in. A wonderful place to savor the true taste of Italy while in Rotorua. Recommended
