1. Hippopotamus Restaurant & Cocktail Bar

No.2 of Restaurants for Views & Experiences in Wellington

没有蜡ollingFresca pizza and buffalo mozzarella tart, authentic Italian pizza. You can see the making and baking of the ingredients. The boss is very talkative, especially when it comes to gourmet ingredients. I like people like this and treat myself well. The ingredients used to make the food are the best. The new store opened in Baoguang, and the owner was very happy to show us the design drawings. He is as talented as the owner of the house. Small dry roasted sweet potatoes Newly opened, buy one get one free, 16.8 per pound, probably only available for events. Sweet potatoes are very sweet and big. Autumn and winter are the seasons for eating sweet potatoes! I really like red bean and chestnut pancakes. The chestnuts inside are super sweet and go well with red beans. It feels like a surprise when you take a bite.

M25***40We had two wonderful dinners. Edwin was a fantastic waiter - very knowledgeable about the food and wine and helped us strike the perfect balance between attentiveness and discretion! The fish dish was delicious. We missed out on the oysters as the weather reduced the usual supply - if you know you want some you can ring the bell ahead of time to save you some!

5. Charley Noble

M25***40The atmosphere was lively as soon as we sat down. Creative dishes, friendly and helpful staff with great recommendations. The cauliflower steaks were delicious and beautifully presented. My photos don't do it justice. Other dishes from nearby tables looked great too.

没有蜡ollingI have passed by this place many times before. No matter how late it is at night, it is always brightly lit and crowded with people. Yesterday, I finally resisted the thought of "I can't eat high calories" and had a feast with my friends in this store. It is really very delicious. The tough thin pizza with a completely Italian style. We randomly selected four combinations, and each one can bring surprises. I like the one in the lower left corner with ham slices and buffalo cheese the most. When rolled together, the spice flavor is just right, which is simply heavenly. But then again, compared to the deliciousness from the calories of cheese, I appreciate the crust itself more. Only the perfect symphony of the chef and the oven can create such a delicious pizza. The signature homemade pasta (I forgot the specific name, but it was the first one anyway) is also delicious. It's a little salty, but the rich tomato flavor plus various seafood and extremely tough noodles, when paired together, it feels amazing. Whose mother's recipe can make such a warm taste? Under everyone's gaze, I silently stretched out my fork and rolled it again and again... Then the service of this store is very good, warm and humane. Every waiter is super cute. For example, the brother who took our order was really patient in explaining to us how to make a pizza four-piece. The brother who collected the plates was sweating and kept saying wait a minute, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, and the most interesting thing was the lady who collected the money. She said, do you want to tip? It doesn't matter if you don't, but I have to ask because if I don't ask, the boss will kill me. Just refuse directly. Okay. Another important point is that the price is also very good! Three people ate until they were full and packed up, and the total cost was $85. [Cute] In short, it is a store I would like to eat again, and it is also a store I want to recommend to my friends.

7. Olive

M25***40I think this is the best risotto I have ever tried. The beef and mashed potatoes were classic but still impressive and topped with sunflower seeds which I will definitely try to imitate next time. It completed our experience perfectly. We fell in love with this place and we will definitely come back next time we are back in the city.

9. Crab Shack

M25***40There was a promotion for mussels which were very good. Delicately prepared in a creamy white wine sauce. Beautiful! The steak was disappointing though. One portion was medium rare and some were dry and chewy. Nice atmosphere.
