Wow what an incredible experience!! Delicious food, the younger staff could be a little more eloquent.. rough around the edges and could have more of a softer touch but food was great !
Thank you Zoe! From the Lai family, MELBOURNE 😎
What an amazing experience!
We have been "foodie-ing" around Aukland and this is the best restaurant of this trip.
We opt'd for the extra seafood option, duck option and a whole bottle of wine and ONLY spent $600 for 4.5 people.
Pricing is CHEAP for
The dining experience at Culprit is like no other. The care and thoughtfulness from the staff was felt throughout the entire evening, the atmosphere was phenomenal, and the food was out of this world - both in terms of flavour and texture. 10/10 would recommend!
Highly Recommend if you’re looking for a tasting-style menu highlighting local fare. I recommend you get the duck for 2, well worth waiting for!! The add-on you can get is great for seafood lovers. As a table of 4, we got it for 2 people as not all of us were that hungry.
Set menu was delicious! Some that really jumped out as something different was the Shitake Milk Bun with Mushroom Butter and the Salt & Vinegar Brussel Sprouts which was served with small pieces of Salt and Vinegar chips. The dessert was also delicious and well sized in relation to the set menu
Would have to be one of the best restaurants I've been to in a very long time.
Service was fantastic, they explained everything to you.
The food was wonderful, full of flavor and texture.
You go to this place knowing that your in for a new food experience and you definitely walking out happy.
Amazing NYE dinner! Service was 10/10, catered to coeliac with the best tasting GF bread I’ve had in a while. We sat at the kitchen bar which a fantastic experience watching the chefs in action. Our favorite were the wild paua and pork sausages and the heirloom tomatoes with the tarragon leaves.
Loved this place. Enjoyed the tasting menu and the bar seat experience was excellent with the fast-moving kitchen giving plenty to see. Food was also plentiful as we ended up taking some of the duck away to eat later.
Fusion-style restaurant. It's inspired by Asian cuisine especially Japanese and Indian.
Recommended for pre booking course menu. You can enjoy a different variety of dishes, taste smell, chewy and umami.
They have stolen my heart, let us be followers for Culprit's way.
Culprit are one of those OG suggestions that everyone was telling us to go. We live withing the area so we didn't really rushed on a weekday we suddenly thought of going out and having an impromptu date night. We were lucky to actually get a table within the day. The service was great we had the set
Culprit had been on my list for a while. So when we started looking for restaurants that could host lunch for a large family reunion I reached out. Rebecca the Manager was AMAZING. She was quick to respond, detailed, and even offered to open the restaurant for us on Sunday! First the space is beauti
We really enjoyed the NYE menu at Culprit, would definitely recommend!
The restaurant has a really nice atmosphere and vibe to it, you can watch the chefs as they prepare everything, really fun experience!
Really enjoyable food. Couldn't believe how nice the Cauliflower soup was. Service was great. I'd be back here again. Love that there is essentially a set menu.
Cozy spot off the main Street but look for an address as there are no visible signs from the outside. Food here is just amazing. Full of flavor and you can tell made from scratch right there. Service is a bit slow but on professional level. We waited 1.5 for our main course. It's an unusual setting
We had a set dinner, chef’s selection. The ambiance was nice, but they started to play hip-hop/rap style music which I found awkward for the location. I had the brisket which was tender and delicious. I tried bone marrow as an extra. It was not as interesting as I thought it would be. All in all it
Best foodie experience in Tāmaki Makaurau/ Auckland to date. Thank you Culprit x
Have been to culprit three times now and would describe the experiences as great, average and good - in that order. The atmosphere is a trendy vibe (one of my favourite in Auckland), service is quick and friendly (third time they replaced a dish on the set menu I had already tried no questions asked
Wow wow wow this place is a must. The reviews speak for themselves! Incredible food, fantastic staff and mastermind chef. 11/10 would recommend to everyone! Thank you Chef for a great meal!
