My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at La Marée restaurant in Auckland recently, and it was truly an exceptional experience. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting ambiance set the tone for a delightful evening. What truly stood out for me was the attention to detail and the evident passion that went into every dish. The chef's creativity and skill were in the unique flavour combinations and the impeccable presentation. It was evident that only the freshest and highest quality ingredients were used, resulting in a truly memorable dining experience. We noticed that the restaurant was quite busy that night and the service was a bit slow in clearing our tables and attending to us. However, I would highly recommend La Marée restaurant to anyone looking for an exquisite dining experience in Auckland. The combination of exceptional food, friendly service, and inviting ambiance truly sets La Marée apart. I eagerly anticipate returning to create more cherished memories there. Thank you very much for the wonderful experience!

Went in for dinner and ordered the Little Barrier Island scallops and braised pork belly starters. Both starters tasted great and were very flavourful. For mains we got the braised pork rib and scotch fillet which also tasted great and perfectly cooked. Score would have been a 5, however, the service could have been a tad more attentive. Like we got our food before our drinks as an example. Also, I feel like the rump should of have had minimal embellishments on the plate like salad or potatoes or something small (not just a piece of steak plopped on the plate. That was definitely a first for me seeing this type of presentation if I am to be honest). On a side note. It definitely pays to be an Accor Plus member due to the great dining discounts received at Accor restaurants regardless of if you are staying at the hotel or not.

Good quality food and amazing vibes and service. Most mains come with side so well worth it. Steak was well cooked and perfectly seasoned. All sides were delicious. Good wine selection too. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a quiet dining experience in a comfortable setting. I would definitely come back.

Wonderful lunch. The food is absolutely excellent and our waitress, Bianca, a delight. I really appreciate the free bread (which increasingly restaurants charge top dollar for) and the fact that they offer some wines that are NOT from New Zealand. Highly recommended. We'll be back for dinner soon.

Great dining experience. Went there for the Valentine's menu. Dishes were prepared and arranged pleasant for eye and taste very delicious. However wine serving was a disaster beginning with an out of stock choice without providing alternative and continued with inexperienced service.

Such an incredible dining experience last night! The food, drinks and service were perfect from start to finish. Special thanks to Beth for being the best waitress any of us have had in a long time!

Had a lovely girls night at Lava, enjoying the 5 course degustation with wine match. The food was absolutely beautifully presented and they were able to alter the menu to cater for me (gluten free, vegetarian) with no sacrifices - Often my version of a meal can be a bit lacking, but at Lava, my meal was exceptional, to the point that the other girls were looking at my meals with envy - not because they didn't like what they had, but because my meal was so special! Service was great, decor is interesting and I imagine in the daytime the view over the water is lovely. Am glad Lava took part in restaurant month this year, as before this I had no idea this restaurant existed! Would definitely recommend. Not given 5 stars as the glasses we had the wine match in were really tiny - would rather have a small amount in a normal size glass, than a small glass filled up!

The food here is some to remember. We started with complimentary bread, fresh seaweed butter and beef tartare. We ordered the Roma tomatoes and langoustine, followed by the ribeye steak and mushroom risotto. Everything was cooked to perfection and the service was of a high standard. To note they have changed the menu a couple days after our visit, so will definitely return to try out their new dishes.

I had dinner here with my best friend!! Place is so nice, calm.... seats at the restaurant entrance look a bit like Pariiiis style!! It's soooo calm and cosy, lighting is so good for a good yarn (if you're with the good person :)), waiters were so nice, (I don't drink so my mocktail was good for a mocktail like a real mocktail! Dessert was good (I liked it), my friend had a vegeterian plate (was yum and artistically cute) - my duck plate was okay (it was fine but I had better = I finished my plate). Oh we had bread and smocked flavour butter!!! It was good as a waiting for food starter (I love bread and butter 🤤)..... Overall beautiful experience. 😋

The food is outstanding - Michellin star quality. The portion sizes are quite small, but that's ok because the quality is so good, as is the presentation and flavour. Customer service is faultless - the waiters are very friendly, really know the menu, and respond well to special requests from fussy eaters. The atmosphere is also really nice - no loud music playing, comfy chairs and a beautiful environment to eat in. Went here for my birthday, and will definitely be back in the future.

Can’t fault. Perfect lil position view & space for lunch. It’s low key but high quality. Not surprised, it’s in Sofitel & hardly have negative experiences with them in general.

Had a buffet breakfast here with our dear friends after a Saturday morning mass. It's a relaxing, good quiet place for catch-ups. Don't miss their bircher muesli, it's divine.

My favourite restaurant in Auckland. Sophisticated yet simple flavours. Textures of all the proteins are excellent and spot on. I have nothing to complain about. Ambience is beautiful. I know this restaurant will do well. The team is kind and very friendly. I’ve been twice this week already and going again this Saturday. Will be back many more times after for sure. :) Service: 5/5 Environment: 5/5 Presentation: 5/5 Food Quality: 5/5 Food Quantity: 5/5

Not the best afternoon as we would expect from a 5-star hotel, but it was a real bargain especially when purchased as a package at NZD199 per person including a 1-hour massage accompanied with use of spa facilities. Savories were innovative - Mushroom Quiche, Salmon Paste on Mille Feuille as well as Ham & Cheese Puff Pastry Pie were all very tasty, while the Cheesy Choux was not that good. For the sweets, Puff Pastry Horn with Meringue was just average, but other items were good enough - the "Mocha Opera Gâteau" was not really an opera cake, it was a regular sponge cake layered with coffee cream, though it was the best among all. Dates Scones were well baked, but I would say that condiment was more clotted cream than Chantilly. Options of tea were scarce, but that was well compensated by a good selection of coffee not normally included on an afternoon tea menu. Service was incredibly slow for unknown reasons. There were as many staff members as occupied tables.
