Hands down the BEST gnocchi I’ve ever ever had!!
We had a wonderful family meal and we all thoroughly enjoyed our food, service and all round atmosphere, we highly recommend to all!
Saw the menu on Facebook, yes is time to have a night out dining ( we do not do this often). The service was great ladies, the food was amazing with one little oops (small green caterpillar on my pawn toast lettuce leaf), this did not dampen my night out nor did I make a fuss or complain but the waitress when I showed her and said just a heads up check the lettuce leaves ( yes I know they grow their own produce), quickly told me to stop eating and whisked it away to be replaced, neither asked for or expected this - so thank you for second entree. Our meals were fantastic, black & blue tuna entree, small warm veg salad, 2 pawn toast entrees plus one extra, 2 steaks cooked perfectly, fish of the day - salmon so good, braised lamb, pig out pizza, baked cheese cake, jelly panna cotta and lots of drinks, so thank you everyone.
We had a wonderful meal at The Quay last night. The Chicken parfait was divine and my Scotch fillet was huge and cooked to perfection. The staff were excellent. We had 2 to 3 staff waiting on our table and their service was friendly and attentive. We are looking forward to going back.
We were passing through and stopped in for lunch. Awesome food and amazing staff. Service was really quick and they even put a candle in the dessert for my wife's birthday
An awesome atmosphere... great food & Kevin was the best waiter/customer service provider I've experienced in a long time, so refreshing, enjoy your time in Whangarei
We had the best view, staff were very attentive, friendly, well mannered. Food was amazing! Thank you for a wonderful time 😀
Food was really really good. Beautiful, varied menu with new things on it since our last visit. Staff were quick, friendly and efficient. We asked to be seated in the sun and then about 45 minutes later I told my husband he looked a bit hot. A waiter appeared with an umbrella two seconds later. The coffee was beautiful, the martini was lovely, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and got what we paid for. This is the perfect place to bring visitors, family or a date ❤️
Great restaurant with fantastic food and friendly staff.
We (3) first went for dinner where we had the lamb rump and the beef fillet with kumara sides and eggplant starter to share, all were delicious, the beef in particular was the best I'd had in a long time, cooked to perfection 🥰
We were so happy we returned for brunch the day after as the truffle pig called to us! Again delicious😋

Great place at that the Small marina - nice tables outside on the waterfront with attentive service and really good food. They have a wide selection of classics - but also great pizza with surprisingly different flavors and varieties. Enjoy cocktails and drinks with them too and spend some quality time there.
I was treated to a meal at The Quay by somebody who eats there fairly frequently. I think myself very lucky! The initial impression was good, the service was very good (and respectful of two friends who were catching up after 2 years of not seeing each other), and the food plentiful and tasty.
Main courses ranged from about $38-$44 and I felt were of value.
The merlot, Rivers Retreat, was a nice wine.
Busy.......and I can understand why. The team worked well together and made the evening very pleasant.
Delicious food, great service and a lovely atmosphere. It was really busy for a moody Tuesday night too so it must good consistently, I must confess this was my first visit. The cocktails looked amazing and I definitely would have had one if I hadn't been driving.
Over from Australia visiting Family and Friends. this is THE BEST Whangarei can offer. Had Lunch on Thursday with a Friend; went back that night for Dinner with other Friends. Food is delicious and the service and staff are awesome.
Wonderful setting right on the waterfront. Delicious French house red, so that's always a winner 😄 Very busy on weekends so bookings a must. Friendly wait staff and the food was scrumptious. We all ate something different and all 4 of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Recommend for sure
We ate here on Wednesday evening. The atmosphere inside is lovely and quaint. The service is absolutely exceptional and the service staff are knowledgeable about their menu and are able to make excellent suggestions and wine pairings. The food, is magnificent. I had the wagyu rump steak, cooked perfectly to medium rare and served alongside some fresh root vegetables, and a nice jus. Absolutely stunning, couldn't recommend the quay highly enough as whangarei's top restaurant.

Beautiful view and atmosphere! Great service, friendly and helpful staff. We enjoyed our breakfast and coffee!
Great setting, but having reserved a table and waited half an hour because the kitchen clearly was under pressure, it was disappointing when we waited a further 40 minutes for the food to arrive. The food looked great, but the fish had been waiting under a heat lamp for too long and was not as hot as it should have been. Taste and presentation were lovely, though. Clearly, it was just an off day.
We dined at The Quay on a busy Saturday afternoon.
Despite the crowd, the service as prompt and friendly. The restaurant was warm, clean and very cosy.
We ordered the Smoked Brisket ($27); the Vegan Beetroot Falafel pita ($27); the Pig Out pizza ($29); and the Tasting Plate ($39).
There is not much to fault on the food. Everything was fresh and tasty, and the portion sizes were reasonable.
I do think it was unreasonable that we were charged $2.50pp for bringing a cake considering our group spent $240 with them.
The restaurant has a good atmosphere and is in a great location, with views over the waterfront if sitting outside. I had the bread and dips with the chicken liver parfait starter and the pig out pizza, both were excellent. I highly recommend coming here to anyone, whether visiting or resident
We were gifted a voucher from our Agent Minda from Ray White as a thank you... My Husband and I really enjoyed our evening. We sat on the deck and enjoyed a wonderful meal, and delicious dessert.
Our waitress was attentive but did not hover. Overall it was a wonderful night out.
Great in every respect. Slick service and gorgeous food so well presented. We are not locals but would be back if we were.
Black pepper squid, seafood chowder and beetroot falafels...
