Welcoming and professional service. Cozy atmosphere decore, lovely chilled wine...many varieties. Had the welly on a plate burger....omg stunning visual and flavour bomb!!! 1st time dinners Loved it.
New restaurant, amazing food, great service. It's no wonder they've done so well in their first Wellington On A Plate competition - some truly inspired dishes in a relaxed atmosphere.
We have been back a few times and every time has been awesome, the staff make you feel so welcome. The food is amazing, a good selection of wines and there is live entertainment so its pretty much the perfect place. It is quite expensive but honestly worth saving up for the food is seriously that good.
Super delicious authentic food. We were served by a very knowledgeable and helpful waiter with great recommendations. They have a large range of vegetarian options and I will definitely be back again to try more dishes!
Very tasty food with a good selection of wine. Giving this a 4 out of 5 stars as we dined using First Table (food was 50%) which was good value for what you get. Without the discount, we felt the food was on the pricier side.
This is a new wine bar with a well thought out theme and menu. Love the focus on NZ wines and the south Asian food theme. I loved the wine that we drank as I was skeptical of finding a red I would enjoy and complemented this with a cheese platter which is abundant. The chicken tikka followed and it just wrapped up the evening beautifully. The service and attention is what really is commendable. They really want to please you and make sure you have the best experience- so thankful for that. It was the perfect experience. A little work on creating a warm ambiance would make this the next happening spot in Wellington.
Perfect place for good food AND wines! Wine tasting with professional guidance and if you want especially in combination with the food. If you have been here you want to visit the vineyard’s of NZ. The people of Jaya’s Wine Bar have reinvented hospitality, so you will have a marvelous time here.
Lovely food, friendly service and great chill vibe. Good selection of NZ wines. Jalapeño poppers were delicious. Butter Chicken and Vada Pav were full of flavours. We will definitely come back again.
Thanks Rugved and Bhushan for your hospitality.
The host was very friendly and down to earth. The food was superb - we had 3 sharing meals and then shared 1 butter chicken. The naan bread is the best I've had anywhere. And a very good selection of wine. There was live music too on the night. The premises are very clean and we'll presented. Highly recommended.
Really lovely restaurant on Bond street. We ordered two appetizers and two mains. The pork dumplings were delicious and the chicken recommended by our host really was a winner.
Our mains were so good as well. I ordered the butter chicken which isnt sweet like other butter chickens but just what i was after and the right amount of spices for me. My partner ordered the beef burger and he enjoyed it as well.
We used our first table deal to try The Jaya and definitely would go back 😊. Lovely vibes and good food.. also the syrah I had was a treat!!
