We absolutely love this place! It's our favorite restaurant on the island! The food is fantastic! We went twice to have lunch here. Should have gone more and try everything on the menu! They post specials of the day on the wall inside. Make sure you check the walls if you're sitting outside for the specials. The first time around we had the special of the day, tuna sashimi tapas place, 10 slices of tuna sashimi, 5 slices of seared tuna tataki sashimi, served with pesto sauce and jasmine rice. Tuna was very fresh! The second time around I had the wahoo korma, great wahoo curry served with rice and coconut breaded banana. Again I love the curry! Very tasty and yummy. My wife had the salt and pepper squid, great big pieces of deep fried salt pepper squid with fries and salad.

If you need to check your email or surf the net, bring your laptop or net book or what not. They have Internet access, NZ$5 for 10 minutes, NZ$10 for 30 minutes, or NZ$15 for an hour. If you don't have a laptop but still would like to surf the net, they have a netbook available for you to use there.

You can also grab picnic lunches from here. Kayak out to one of the islands and have your picnic lunch there! We didn't get a chance to do that. Maybe next time.

Favorite Dish: Everything was delicious! Tuna, wahoo, and squid were the only 3 that we've tried there. Next time we're definitely coming back for more!
