I just died and went to heaven
I have never left a review before at a restaurant. I don't have Facebook so I am writing this from my wife's account.
Let me set the scene.............
We have been traveling today from Rotorua having walked all day from tourist attraction to tourist attraction. we then arrive in Auckland at our Hotel at about 7:30 PM. We then walked another km up Symonds Street to Gina's, into a 20 knot headwind with the rain. We were seated immediately and offered the menu, just by chance I asked if there was a special tonight and was informed that there was a pork belly special with the mushroom sauce potatoes and salad.
I ordered the pork belly and then from the time it hit the table I was completely oblivious to anything else that happened until I'd finished the plate.
I advised the waitress to let the chef know that all I wanted to do was lick the plate.
And 52 years old I have cooked many pork roasts, slow cooked pork bellies and consider myself somewhat of an expert, but this poor belly that I ate this evening was to die for.
Thanks very much, Sean
Bought a grabone for four - took my elderly mum and celebrated last night in NZ with visiting relative from Chile. Was a great night out. Loved the buzzy atmosphere, the briefly wild Italian moments, such as when the lights went out and the kitchen burst in flames 🔥 The food was yummy too. We all had different dishes three from the grabone menu and one had pork belly for an extra $10. Recommend the arancini for entre & the tiramisu for dessert. Watch out for expensive wine though!!!
Amazing dinner tonight thanks. Took the extended family out for Miss 11's birthday because she wanted "the best spaghetti and meatballs" � for her bday treat. Not only did Gina's deliver on this front, but all 10 other meals (pizza, pasta and veal) were met with rave reviews. The staff were fantastic and the birthday song at the end really capped off a great night. Thanks team, we had a blast and will be back soon
