Monzu

First of all THANK YOU to the owner and the staff at Monzu. My friends threw a surprise birthday dinner for me, Monzu are not open on a Tuesday but they opened especially for our dinner party and i am very grateful. I felt very special and spoilt. The 5 course degustation was to die for. Every dish was so tasty and delicious. I was the only vegetarian (pescaterian on the night) out of the 13 and they happily accommodated my dietary requirements. Italian is my favorite so the traditional Napoli dishes with a fancy twist was a delight. The wine, the music, the service 5 STARS!

Auckland's Best Italian Dining by a long shot My partner and myself had heard good things about Monzu. Both being Italian food fans, the owner Gaetano and his chef Flavia blew us away with their magnificent 4 course innovative degustation menu and selection matching wines complimented with Gaetano's personal service. To say we were mightily impressed is an understatement. Make the effort and you will be amply rewarded.

On the top of the food goodness that distinguishes Monzù, I think that a great strength of this place is the possibility to dine in a fancy location, with superbly dished up meals, with the same budget you would need in a more "mainstream" location. I think it's very good value for money and a good example of how small things can make a big difference.

One of the best restaurants in Auckland, hands down. I’m Italian, been here for 20 years and my family and I are always looking for authentic Italian restaurants which are extremely hard to find (unfortunately). Gaetano is such a character, very professional staff, and the food is truly authentic. Recommend 10000%!!
