Took visiting family to Waiheke and knew from previous visits that the Oyster Inn was the place to take them for lunch. The food and service was amazing with perfect recommendation of wines to match. The Local Oysters are definitely worth it and all of our mains were truly stunning. A great spot to visit for a nice lunch or dinner overlooking the amazing scenery.
Fantastic food in a casual atmosphere with beautiful ocean views from the terrace. Have not stayed in the hotel so can only review the restaurant!
Went for a birthday dinner, luckily they managed to fit us in as we hadn't booked. The food was delicious. The best oysters I've had with mignonette. Service was great and made us feel so welcome. Liked the more 'foodie' dishes over the standard ones (fish and chips) however it was good fish and chips by any standards.
Great day. Superb food and wine and lovely attentive staff. All good, so make sure you go there........run!
The staff were great and so was the food. We were fortunate to have had a spot on the deck on a beautiful day.
I particularly recommend the crudo, although we enjoyed a number of the seafood dishes - but I really want to go back and try the slow roasted shoulder of lamb too....
The Oyster is lovely. The vibe is great and the waiter was so sweet, patient and helpful and also quite fun. The decor and locale are excellent. Wine selection good. Only thing that let our experience down was the main course. 2 of 3 of our party had the pork. It was not as tasty as expected plus we both commented that the expectation was that the pork would be a bit crispy on the outside. Salad was great. Potatoes excellent.
Absolutely fabulous winemakers dinner! Poppies wines were lovely and matched with amazing dishes. 3 plus Michelin stars if they went that high!!
Wonderful Sunday lunch with the family! Great fish tacos, the wee oyster rolls, so tasty!! Eggplant was lovely, but on the smallish side for a main for both of the ladies at our table. Our men folk ordered the mussel pasta and loved it but likewise thought the portions were on the smaller side. The only generous portion dish was the steak, but why come to Oyster Inn for the steak? Anyway, our service was excellent and the views divine. Our only criticism would be on the portion sizes of the mains. We'll be back!
Only had dinner, the service was great staff was very friendly, we had a great time celebrating my birthday.
This review is referring to the restaurant. It was one of the best meals I've ever eaten! The service was amazing and the staff is so friendly. I wanted to go back to Waiheke Island the next day just to eat there again. Everything ingredient was super fresh. Craft cocktails are fabulous as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
