The food and service was impeccable. Good atmosphere. Staff were prompt and friendly with service.
Absolutely beautiful meal here tonight with my little family. We ordered the full rack of ribs, chicken burger and a kids ribs and chips. The photos don’t do the meal justice and the portion sizes are huge. I was really impressed with the quality of the meals and the size of the kids meal especially for the price, my one year old never finishes a meal and absolutely smashed this back! Will definitely be back!
Love this place the staff are friendly and the food is amazing
My friend and I love sitting at the bar having a good catch-up and watching this guy make the drinks....I need to take better photos next time lol but it's a 10/10 from us👌
Jessica,
You are amazing. The service and food was impeccable
Overall, great experience. Service was great, food was awesome. I had ribs and prawns that were a little over cooked but I will still be back to get that platter again! Good value for your money. The photos really don't show how big it is. Keep up the great work 👍
Food is great, just a little pricey. But the taste and atmosphere was fantastic!
Totally recommend it! The service, greeting, the look of the plated food, taste and temp, all spot on and delicious! It was for my husband's 30th birthday dinner and I'm glad we had it there. Definitely going back soon! We preordered the grazing platters and it came out not long after we arrived and it was just so YUM!
I cleaned my salmon plate for my main, the others had surf n turf n pork belly. EVERYTHING WAS GOOD!
THANK YOU BLACKSMITH😋😋

My all-time favourite place to eat out in Auckland!
Facilities are top notch and maintained to the highest standards: offering a warm, comfortable environment for all occasions; from exciting sports events to intimate family dinners, The Blacksmith does it all.
Food & drink is consistently on-the-mark: super fresh, tasty, and served by awesome staff with excellent attention-to-detail.
The wait times are also quite short, even during busy periods.
My 'Go-to' is the Blasksmith BBQ ribs (half or full-rack), the Barnyard 'Meatlovers' Pizza, the BBQ Chicken wings w/blue cheese aioli dipping sauce, and a side of loaded bacon & cheese wedges.
My only critique is the lack of a 'customer loyalty' service as I am confident I'd meet the criteria with my regular visits!
Whether your looking for an exciting contemporary Bar to enjoy a big game, an intimate scenery to take a date, or just reliable Restaurant with delicious food for all the family, The Blacksmith Takanini is the complete package.
Cheers,
Mo
I have been to The Blacksmith Takanini many times previously, but this time was on the 23rd December, 2022 for our Company Christmas lunch. Food was so delicious and plenty for what we booked for, friendly awesome staff the whole time we were there and even boxed the extra food for us to take home. Everyone from work still talks about how great their dining experience was at The Blacksmith Takanini, thanks again and Happy 2023!
Food was good.
Would have liked mork pork crackle.
The table was wobbly.
