Ima Cuisine

Had the mezze platter along with most of my table, we were brought endless plates of absolutely delicious pickles, breads, falafel, olives, dips, and salads. The vegan kofte was awesome as well. Polished off with a yemenite tea, halva and Turkish delight, all sublime. Yes it's a little more expensive than other places around but for the quality, flavour and freshness is worth every penny

We visited this place for lunch with work mates. The ambience is nice and cosy. The food options are nice, but only a few for vegetarians. The salads are nice and well prepared. I ordered a salad and didn't realise that it would be served cold, which made it a bit unappetising. The staff are nice and helpful. The location is easily accessible by walking and is quite popular in the lunch time on weekdays. Prior bookings are recommended.

Came in for lunch during work after walking past many times before. The restuarant has a nice ambience, and the staff were able to accommodate 9 of us at short notice (although it can get busy, so might pay to book for large groups). The food came out exactly as described on the menu, but the portions were bigger than expected. A great place to stop by for lunch.

I had an absolutely lovely experience at Ima Cuisine, surpassing all my expectations. The restaurant’s ambiance perfectly complements the incredible food they serve. With a delightful mix of cabinet food and an extensive dine-in menu featuring TONS of options for all food preferences, there's something for everyone. We ordered the Middle Eastern platter for two, which could easily serve three people, and we had plenty of leftovers. The food was fresh, delicious, and their hummus was hands down the best I've ever had here in Auckland. Additionally, their menu offers a wide range of beverages, from Arabic coffee to cocktails, both of which were extremely delicious. Despite the restaurant filling up quickly as we visited close to lunchtime, the service was still remarkably swift. I am already looking forward to returning.

Food was sensational! Was our first time here and we went with no expectation to be left blown away by the food, how quick the food came out, the house made sodas and the absolutely lovely/helpful/friendly service we had from our main waiter and a few others also. We’ll be back for sure! Great for vegan too.

Had the most beautiful meal here with parents and grandparents. Comfy seating, lovely and friendly space, attentive staff, and the food was incredible! It felt very homely and welcoming to be there. Definitely recommend for groups. Convenient for a meal before a show, as we just wandered down to Spark for a 7.30 kick off.

OMG what a hidden gem in the Auckland dining experience.. Food is par excellence.. Host was courteous and helpful and interiors has been designed to give you a real middle Easters experience.. kebabs on skewers were a must try and kunafa was so yummy.. If I could I would repeat it 100 times.. must go.. highly recommended.. owner sells a cook book with their generational recipes.. it's a real foodies book..
