Food and service here is amazing. We always look forward to the Pizzas
Pretty venue with a modern vibe.
Polite staff & very attentive. The food was served quick so we didn’t have to wait long. Ordered the chicken fettucine & steak with garlic pizza bread. It was delicious! Although the menu had changed from the last time I was there, the food was still great!
Great place to catchup with friends over drinks too!
We had fillet steak and fish and chips and two cocktails. The food was pretty good and i really liked strawberry cocktail and also house cocktail was pretty good(coconut and pineapple one)
Close to cinema entrance at Sylvia Park, good vibe of the deco and seatings. It was Thursday lunch time, not too many customers inside the store, service was pretty efficient. The manager even offered warm water to us. We ordered chicken fettucine, Madonna pizza and roasted beetroot from $15 lunch special menu. Nothing really special but fresh, tasty. Zomato Gold can be used for lunch specials. Would come back again with friends.
Reasonable price and good food
I love this little restaurant the food is absolutely delicious and the staff here are so friendly and very polite. I’ll be back keep up the good work fabulous people
Good food, great ambience and music. Location is very convenient as well. We tried pizza and pasta both were excellent. Customer service was superb.
It has great ambiance which makes it a nice place to spend Friday evenings. Staff was accommodating and their service was prompt. Loved the pasta and lamb rump we ordered. Pizza was okay.
With a modern industrial look, the place is wide and spacious with plenty seating. Lovely service and staff were friendly and accomodating. Kid-friendly, it's a nice place to take a break from the shopping! However, our food took a while with only two staff in the kitchen. Baked cannenoli was my favourite but then I'm always a sucker for baked dishes 😋 super yum and served sizzling - it had some nuts in it too which was a nice touch. Also had the marinara pizza, lamb rump and scogch fillet steak. Nothing stands out as amazing but it was a satisfying meal. Worth it with zomato gold as it is not cheap at normal price.
They also have a $15 Lunch special on weekdays 11-3pm but not available with zomato gold

I visited here on a Friday night for an early dinner. We were greeted promptly and shown to our table. Service was friendly and attentive.
We ordered a Parma Pizza, fries and the lamb. The menu has a good variety, without being too lengthy.
The food didn’t take too long to arrive. My pizza was lovely - the crust was light, thin and crispy at edges. A light scatter of toppings and flavours were balanced. My friend enjoyed the lamb, presented well and cooked perfect pink.
All in all a great experience. I’ve visited here on a few separate occasions previously and they have been consistent. Also no hassles with using Zomato Gold - amazing value. Will definitely be back!
We came here on a weekday afternoon , place was quite quiet, we ordered a few plates to share (rocket salad, bolognese, meatball and fish and chips), everything was tasty, environment is great for big group gatherings and kids friendly.
Very enjoyable delicious food. Lamb and steak both very tasty and delicious. Can’t wait to go back. Great with Zgold.

Absolutely love the decor of Little District. The place has easily the best ambiance of the restaurants in Sylvia Park. I ordered the madonna pizza - super tasty, fresh and perfect amount of toppings. Can't wait to come back!
Top quality and extremely helpful service. Delicious pizza. Awesome vibe to the place. Would most definitely come again. Highly Recommended.

Food was really good. The service and vibe of the place were awsome. I had the garlic and cheese pizza bread, chicken fettuccine with a side of fries and really enjoyed my meal.
loved it! great for dinner with friends , great staff so nice and best service. Food was amazing!! I had the lamb rump and the lamb was delicious. Friends had the chicken fettuccine that was nice. The pizzas were great! Overall was a 10. Defs coming back here again :)
To start with, service was a bit slow but food came reasonably fast. Pepperoni pizza was really good and the spaghetti was average. Nice decoration. They are all $15 lunch which are good values.
The food here is quite good, ordered 1 pizza and their fish and chips. The beer batter on their Fish n Chips was quite nice, their chips and the batter on the fish had a nice crunch to it. Pizza was relatively decent, I personally loved the pizza and wouldn't mind coming back again to try their other pizza. Restaurant's ambiance was really nice, loved the inside along with really good staff. P.S if there was a 4.5 rating I would give it a 4.5 rating rather than a 4.
We've been regulars here ever since they opened and it's safe to say that every visit is consistently good, both with the food and service.
Their coffees and wood-fire pizzas are our usual go-tos. We've also tried other stuff like their pasta and sides which are all pretty good.
I love that there are always plenty of sitting options to choose from: high chairs, low chairs and sofa seats. Although they can get quite easy on weekend nights.
Possibly the best dining option in Sylvia Park (we've tried other places at the mall and concur).
I have heard a lot about this place and wanted to check it out. The ambiance and atmosphere is great, I love all the decor. But about the food. I found it difficult to choose cause a lot of it sounded so delicious. I ordered the vege pizza and loved it. My friend got the chicken pasta and loved it. The meals are quite big too, too much to finish
Great atmosphere!! Music and the overall vibe of the place is awesome. We would give the staffs service a 10 out of 10, they were all so welcoming and nice! We got a seat straight away and our food came out very quick! Food is incredible. We had the fettuccine and the Hawaiian pizza! Both were amazing and delicious and a great sized portion. Would definitely recommend and we will be back
Situated at the edge of Sylvia Park Shopping Complex most bustling Foodies District you cannot help be drawn in by “Little Districts” bright lights, trendy colourful greenery and interior... definitely a stunning Venue with a casual comfy feel... my kinda place.
The Staff on arrival are great big smiles attentiveness to get you seated immediately.
The seating tables are smart really cute with a outdoor feel with colourful tropical fabric reminded me of being in a Whams music video ‘Club Tropicana’ hehehe
Menu is an easy read spoiling the vegan vegetarian with delicious wood burning pizzas and burgers... also for the meat lovers chorizo sausage pizzas as well as chicken beef burgers, salads, side platter options also...
Beverages are plentiful too with some cool refreshing in house cocktails.
Well priced between the 3 of us we spent $40 on a meal consisting 2 pizzas, beer battered fish salad chips, 2 burger meals,
3 beverages not bad.
The meals were huge and yummo...
Did the deed for our belly’s lol
Great atmosphere lots of room to move around easily so clean tidy... really nice venue for friends and family to dine in!
Would we go again most definitely
Very nice marinara pizza, the best I've ever had here in AKL, salmon and shrimp portions are very generous, went here last night for dinner and was very pleased. Highly recommended!!
The decor is very cool and I really enjoyed the vibe of the place. The staff were attentive, service was good.
We got a couple of pizzas - they were good. I recommend the Margarita pizza.
Visited here today for lunch around 1pm, when we arrived it wasn't that busy so we were seated fairly quickly. Drink service and ordering of the food was quick however the food did take a while to arrive. My open steak sandwich was great, the bread was nice and the steak was melt in your mouth delicious! Other half had the chicken parmigiana, he loved it. The chicken was very moist. The aioli that came with the dishes was amazing! Would definitely visit again to try out the pizzas that everybody seemed to be ordering.
Came to Sylvia Park for dinner and decided to come here after looking at all the other options.
Once we entered we were led to the back of the restaurant which looked like an outdoor garden area, tables in between plenty of greenery. Once seated we were given sufficient time to pick out food to share. The pizza was quite nice as was the fried cauliflower. I thought that the pasta for the lamb pappardelle was overcooked so it was really soft. the sauce was nice though. The biggest disappointment was the Alfredo crepes which was really bland and just had the texture of mashed potatos. Overall the meal was alright and better than some of the others I've had in the area.
I loved the cauliflower bites so much, and the cocktail I got was so nice! The Parma pizza was also nice! Really great vibes and friendly people.
This place has really picked up their game with regards to food and service. Love the fried squid and garlic pizza bread. Great drinks choice too. The staff here are friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend.
I forgot to take a picture of the rest of the food, but here's a pic of the starter! The one on the right is the caramelised onion and blue cheese wood fired bread. That one was really good and pretty filling to start off the meal! It's also pretty decent at $11. The only downside of this place is that prices are a bit steep compared to the portions served. Other than that , it was a wonderful meal and the decor inside was so fresh and original. Might come back and try the pumpkin salad soon !
Don’t judge a restaurant entirely on its reviews.
A friend of mine & I visited The Little District for dinner recently. Having read the reviews, we were reluctant to give it a try, but decided that we should make our own opinions on the place.
We were seen to & seated promptly. Our waitress was friendly & attentive without being overbearing. The decor is gorgeous - super cute! And the tables are laid out in a way that makes you feel like you have your own space & aren’t seated on top of the tables next to you.
The food was all good - we shared a pizza & some fries as we weren’t overly hungry. Being a bit of a pizza & fries snob, I had had better, but had also certainly had worse.
It’s a nice place - convenient if you work/ live in the Mount Wellington area. The Little District has heaps of potential - the vibe is great, they pour a really good sized glass of wine! The food is the only thing that lets the place down slightly. But it’s not as bad as some people are making it out to be. Definitely give it a go - form your own opinion.
UPDATE:
We went back recently and struck the new manager, Aidan, who was just wonderful. He gives the place a whole new feel.
I had lunch special ( pizza n the drink =15 dollars ) n added cocktail . Was not bad. And i saw big pizza was served to just next table. Next time i would like to try that one.
I went there with a friend the food is great, great atmosphere specially the waiters and waitress are so nice and friendly specially one person named Jordan.
Had dinner recently for pizza and pasta. Great taste and flavour. Ambience and staff are friendly. Will come back again for sure. They serve vegetarian options too!
Second visit: Chicken pizza - ended up vomiting. I am not sure if it's because of the pizza or what. I was feeling fine till I went to the bathroom! Despite the situation - I still think this place is quite nice!
Pizzas are large - and is easily shareable between 2-4 people!
Their cocktails are nice and delicious!
Variety of nibble food which is great to share amongst friends.
Went last week for dinner on a Thursday night, lovely place, really nicely decorated. The food was okay.. ordered the chicken burger and it was huge but not amazing. Service was good and the lady that served us was lovely.
I've been here 3 times now and it has always been fantastic. The pizzas are awesome with a wonderful smokiness from the woodfire. The chips are moreish, as are the chicken bites. The fitout is superb with a really cool, relaxed vibe :).
I had tried to go a fourth time (without booking) but they were very busy and the kitchen was stretched as there was a big function next door (kitchen is shared).Staff were very good and let us know that there was a long wait time upfront, so we changed our plans and still had a good night.
Decoration + customer service + food + drinks are perfect!!! Good vibes as well. Definitely I will come back !! Keep it up guys well done 👍🏼
I came to this restaurant to celebrate my birthday with my family and overall had a relatively good experience.
The first thing I ordered was the Frosé, which was amazing! To eat, 3 of us ordered pizzas and 1 ordered 2 "bar snacks" - 1 of which was unavailable (which we were not told until we had been waiting a while for the food). All of the food was very good!
The only let down of the night was the service - very poor and slow, in fact it actually stopped after we received our food. Not even a top up of water! Service was so slow that instead of looking at a dessert menu and ordering desserts, which some of us wanted to do, we got up and paid the bill.
I was disappointed with this level of service, as it was my birthday (which was stated in the email) and would've expected something higher.
Cannot fault Little District! The service was so efficient and the lady serving us was more professional and polite than any other restaurants I've been to.
The food I would give 9/10. I ordered the fish and chips which was a huge serving and the fish was perfect. It was served with salad which I enjoyed as well. The only thing was that the chips weren't cooked as long as I would of liked- they weren't too golden or crunchy. My friend ordered one of the pizzas which looked delicious too. We both ordered the Froze's to drink which were delicious and perfect on a hot summers day!
I love the decor here, it's so modern and such a nice/spacious restaurant to sit in. Prices are good considering the portions are very generous. Definitely think this will become a regular 😊👍
*EDIT: Came here again on Monday, and staff were so unfriendly! Compared to the awesome professional service we got on our first time, this was super below average and the restaurant wasn't even busy. My rating was previously a 5 but it's now a 4. A little disappointed.
I’ve heard mixed reviews about this place, so I was hesitant to try it out. However, since it’s new and looked super cute in photos, I’ve decided to visit and form my own opinions :)
This place was absolutely GORGEOUS in person, with lots of greenery and a relaxed vibe. The photos do not do it justice!
I also loved the concept having a cafe, a bar, and a restaurant all in one. Very convenient and accommodates to everyone’s needs :)
Food came really quickly, and the staffs were most friendly and attentive.
The prices of mains were what you would expect to pay at most Italian restaurants, however, the serving sizes were huge that we had to ask to take away. The pizzas were decent, with lots of toppings. They were the thin and crispy type, so perfect if you were a lover of wood-fire pizzas. The chicken pasta was also cheesy and flavourful. However, the standout dishes were the sides: the fried boneless chicken had s nice kick to it and went really well with the creamy dipping sauce. The ‘blue bread’ was everyone’s favorite, with plenty of blue cheese and caramelised onions. It was the same size as the pizzas, and at just half of the price, it was definitely the most value for the money.
For desserts, at only $12 each the portion sizes were generous, and the presentation was lovely. However, what impressed me most was the flavours. The chocolate delice was incredibly smooth and creamy, with a nice bitter chocolate flavour, which was perfectly complimented by the tartness of the berry purée and the sweetness of the custard. My friend found the sticky date pudding slightly too sweet, but in my humble opinion it was sweet and the most pleasant way, with a deep richness from the toffee sauce.
All in all, from my two visits, I have nothing but good things to say about this place :)
Great little spot in the new area of Sylvia Park. Lots of seating options. Varied menu from breakfast until late including cabinet food & menu items.
Service was friendly & efficient. Coffee well made
Had the most tastiest woodfired pizza here, and also ordered some naked fries served with a yummy aioli sauce :). The prices I believe are very fair and the dining vibe was chilled and cool with lovely staff. Will definitely be heading back!
A couple of us decided to have dinner here last minute and we thank them for taking us in as it was late and they were closing the kitchen. The Angus Fillet was cooked to absolute perfection. We all enjoyed our meal now we have a great steak place to take our out of town friends too. The portions are great value but also the quality it was definitely well priced. Its been a long time since I have eaten at a restaurant where I felt I got great value for my money. The chef that cooked for us last Saturday you are the best.
This was my 3rd consecutive year coming to The Little District! 3 completely different events, set up, audience and requirements but the team here just nailed it every single time!
A huge shout out to the entire team that was present Wednesday afternoon 4pm onwards for making our event an epic, special thanks to Michael, he’s an absolute star!
Looking for a prime location spot that ticks all the boxes such as food, service, ambience, staff and value for money, look no further!! 110% recommended, they know what they are doing 🥂

At Sylvia Park's culinary precinct The Little District is a great value for money restaurant. Angus steaks times 3. Southern Fried Chicken times 2. And a Beef, bacon and cheeseburger ordered by the Fast Food Friday Foodie Bumz crew. Sides... fries, portobello mushrooms and Wedges with sour cream and sweet Chilli sauce. No need to season the steaks. Just perfect. Chicken with Chipotle sauce was crispy yet moist on the inside with a nice kick. Huge sides of fries, mushrooms and wedges. So hard to finish 😁. Burger with a huge patty tasty cheese and tangy bacon. Only one dessert tonight a chocolate fondant. Went down a treat as judged by T 🤣🤣. Lovely venue with a cruisy atmosphere. 9/10 coconuts on the island scale for sure. Give it a go.
Great for friends and family. Drinks are tasty and delivered to you quick. Food is brilliant. Staff are friendly and don’t mess around. My favourite place to socialise after a long day of work or on a day off. Def would recommend.
First time there. Very nice place. The food was tasty and delicious. My wife loved her beetroot salad. The service was top notch. Waited 10mins then all the food came out at the same time. Thank you LD.
Came here for a birthday dinner with family. Might be because we came really early when no one else was in the restaurant yet but the food came really fast! We ordered a lamb shank, beef and bacon burger, a salad (don’t remember name) and deep fried calamari. They were all quite good.
Perfect for a group - 22 of us on a rainy blustery Thursday for a work dinner. The team at Little District were brilliant. Great service both at the bar and for the food. Any time we looked like we needed someone one of the team would be there immediately. Good coordination & communication between the wait staff and the bar too.
Great cocktails - coconut crumble was my favourite. They don't have a mocktail menu but the virgin mojito they created was perfect.
The food was good too. The eggplant bites to share were a lovely surprise and the lamb shank nicely tender. Surf n Turf portion is huge with the steak perfectly done. The chocolate dessert was fabulous. Only disappointment was the cheesecake - rather too dense.
Special mention to the kitchen - we all ordered individually when there so was bracing myself for a huge wait time. But the food came out surprisingly fast.
Will definitely keep this on the list for groups dinners
Really good food, throughly enjoyed my Chicken Burger. ..
Lemon & Lime Cheesecake was Fabulous...
Helpful freindly staff...
Was a Monday when we went, was not busy, so was a quiet and relaxed atmosphere...
Went there for a team lunch and pre-ordered the menu. Everything came exactly on time as we reached there. Staff were attentive and friendly. I ordered the market fish, while the fish (salmon but depends on the day) tasted amazing, the salad part of it was bit of a let down especially the potatoes were undercooked. Dressing could have been better but overall nice vibe to the place and food looked good. While there was a variety of cocktails, they didn't have mocktails so I went for the lemonade which was okay but again felt a bit left out. Would be great if there can be some nonalcoholic options from the cocktail menu. Washrooms are upstairs so keep in mind that you arent leaving things to last minute. All in all, a good experience.
Came for a work lunch at midday on Friday. Ordered from the $20 menu which was decent value. There was a wait of over an hour for the food, which wasn’t communicated to us until an hour into it. There seemed to be one manager, one kitchen staff, and two very busy waitstaff. Definitely could have done with another person in the kitchen at least. The medium rare steak we ordered came out medium well, but was definitely not bad for the price. The cheeseburger comes without any sides and probably wouldn’t be enough as a stand-alone meal for a hungry person. Lovely atmosphere with plants and windows, but the music was slightly too loud for comfortable conversation across a table for 6.
Entree was yummy! My cocktail was delicious ( it was something sour), dinner was fricken YUMMMMY. We had lamb shank and also a steak meal. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Ample’s space, comfortable seating, easy access to car park and the mall.

Even the hot drinks are good ☕️ ☕️
Recommend 💯

Nice place for a decent meal. Staff members are friendly and welcoming. Fun overall vibe to hang out with mates etc. The only area of improvement could be the wait time otherwise definitely worth your time and money. Prices are good for the quality and standards offered.
I really enjoyed the ceasar salad, it had all the right ingredients - I usually have to add some lemon and salt as most places use a sweet dressing, but not this time it was perfect. The portion sizes were great and we all left feeling comfortably full.
