An exquisite fine dining experience, with fresh seafood and impeccable service. Each of my meals came beautifully laid out and felt artistic even. Also, the restaurant was very spacious and comfortable. The impressive display of liquor in glass cabinets further enhances the luxurious ambience too. However, food can take a while to arrive, with the salad being served mid-meal, unlike in most restaurants. Overall, however, I would definitely recommend Harbourside to those seeking a high-quality and high-end seafood feast here in Auckland. Located right in the ferry building, I'm sure it will be easy to find too.
This was an experience we can't fault. My partner couldn't stop praising the scallops and how amazing they were, steak was cooked to perfection, champagne was the perfect beverage to wash done our meals. Phenomenal service from absolutely everyone. We will definitely revisit in the future.
Great food with great views and nice service. To be honest it’s a bit too windy to sit outside even it’s not raining, still feels so cold. The food are more like fusions which is not bad. The 🦪 are really good with a very reasonable price 👍👍👍
Lovely ambience, tomato salad was average main, snapper a little dry, but mistakes happen, no kitchen can do 100% every time so will visit again Pork belly? WOW cinnamon bark was amazing. do not be put off. It is a really worth the experience. Eaten numerous times and always great. Service warranted a tip but at the lower end.
Exceptional food. They were rather busy, so it made it hard to get drinks. It’s very expensive, but that’s reflected in the food.
Wow… 10/10… incredible lunch and I’ll be back… warm welcome and great service thank you Kelly ;-), superb table, out of this world taste experience… well done front of house and the chefs kitchen…see you again!
The seatings are spacious and diners enjoy their tiny privacy. And service was perfect. No waiting time and we got to sit by the balcony watching the ferries jotting in and out. Beautiful view. And the servings were just too good we wished for more space in our tummy. We almost got lost just climbing those stairs and probably needs signage to show the way. We laughed all the way up till we settled down on our seats. Worth a try. For my kitchen was closed that night😂~ it happens
Quite expensive, food was nice, if getting a main, be sure to also order some sides. Scallops from entrée menu - absolutely amazing, did not take photos but beautiful dish, cooked to perfection, but comes with only 4 scallops..
Went here last night for a friend's bday dinner.
Place seemed short staffed so the wait was long.
Food was well worth waiting for. Waiters were very busy but still took great care of us.
I had written in the reservation that it's my friend's bday and would like a bday dessert. Reminded them upon arrival , but when desserts arrived it was still missed out.
It was a great dining experience, Joe was very informative with his broad wine knowledge and Aki has been great all throughout the night. Thank you team, it was a birthday celebration to remember.
Fabulous seafood chowder which was filling but not heavy - perfect for a light meal. Chowder was hearty with mussel, prawn, scallop & lots of fish

Yesterday, my wife and I had the pleasure of visiting a breathtaking place near the ferry station to celebrate her birthday. The experience was made truly remarkable by the impeccable service we received from the staff at Harbourside. I would like to express my deepest appreciation to our waiter, Griffin, for going above and beyond to ensure our every need was met.
Griffin's attentive and thoughtful care truly enhanced our dining experience. From recommending exquisite dishes to promptly addressing any requests we had, his dedication to providing exceptional service was evident throughout the evening. His warm and friendly demeanor made us feel welcome and well taken care of, adding a personal touch to our celebration.
In addition to Griffin, I would also like to extend my gratitude to Kelly and Akki, who played instrumental roles in creating a professional and enjoyable atmosphere. Their attention to detail and commitment to providing an excellent experience contributed greatly to the overall success of our visit. Their expertise and passion for service were evident in every interaction, and we felt genuinely valued as customers.
I wholeheartedly recommend Harbourside to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. The combination of stunning surroundings, attentive staff, and exceptional service makes this place a must-visit destination. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply seeking a delightful culinary adventure, Harbourside delivers an experience that exceeds expectations.
We are already looking forward to our next visit to Harbourside. The care and attention we received during my wife's birthday celebration made it an unforgettable occasion. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire team at Harbourside for creating such a special and memorable experience. Your dedication to excellence is truly commendable.
At the end I would also like to extend a special thanks to the talented dessert chef, June, for her exceptional creativity in designing a beautifully crafted birthday plate.
Once again, thank you, Harbourside, for making my wife's birthday celebration truly extraordinary.
Great service by Jake and Aki, and the food was divine. Make sure you ask for a table with a view. My table overlooked the wharf and the view was awesome 👏
I had an absolutely exquisite New Year's Eve dinner here. The food was second to none, the service was great - the right amount of attentiveness. So much that I decided to tip, which is not really common practice in NZ but the waitress really deserved it. Our total bill ended up being about $470 which is a lot, but for 4 courses, wine, beer, and cocktails it felt worth it for a special occasion.
The staff were all very attentive and the food was amazing. Great presentation on all our meals. Would recommend for awesome service.
Mike & Merryn were wonderful hosts! This was our first visit and as Aucklanders we will definitely be back. This was an anniversary treat for us and it was all up to par with what we would expect for the price we would pay for food & drinks looking at the menu.
We recommend you book a table online and note if you are dining for a special occasion. It was a last minute decision to go out for dinner - so for a same day (3 hours out) booking, we got a lovely table outside with a chefs treat for dessert. Overall a lovely experience, the view was beautiful, staff were professional and doing their best.
Oysters, cutlets, bread, side potatoes were delicious but the prawn mac & cheese was delish!
Thanks team for making our celebration a special one!
