I first came to this restaurant as it was listed in entertainment book.We loved the cozy environment. My partner and I tried the seafood platter and it was a real treat! I especially like the tempura mussel stuffed with smoked salmon yum!!

We went here on a Sunday night as a goodbye meal to our overseas visitor, and we were very glad we chose thebay.
The atmosphere was great, easy on the eye gentle background music, nicely spaced tables so we had privacy. The waitress was attentive without being overbearing and the food was terrific, entre’ was good and helped us to start our wine, the steak was fantastic- just perfect, meals the right size leaving the desserts which we all loved and I even had a delicious Lemon Merangue Martini- superb!
Our guest was definately impressed and so were we, we will definately go again.

The atmosphere and music – great! The wine – lovely (good selection)! The service – very friendly and accommodating!
The food…….WOW!! Awesome!!
The best steak I’ve had in a restaurant in NZ so far in the two years I’ve lived here. It was cooked exactly the way I asked for it. The seafood platter was huge! (Father in law and husband tucked into that!) and the Creme Brulee…? Well that was absolutely scrummy! I’ve reviewed quite a few restaurants on here and I always think I’m fair, therefore I’d highly recommend theBay. I’ll definitely be going again, can’t believe I didn’t go before now. A lovely little pearl in the Bays!

The best in the neighbourhood! My husband and I go there at least once a week! Friendly atmosphere and excellent food and services.

I have been to The Bay twice now. I really enjoy the food that they offer and it is cooked incredibly well. The dessert was simple, yet delicious. The only criticism is the time it takes to be served and have the plates cleared. Half an hour for a drink, an hour for the main and then a further 20 minutes to have the plate cleared, 15 minutes later we were offered the dessert menu. If not for the slow service they would have definitely received a higher rating as I enjoyed the ambience.

excellent food ,generous portions , cant fault it apart from the fact the drinks service was a tad on the low side , will be back
