I had a lovely lunch here yesterday with my friend. The place is really gorgeous and cosy. The food was absolutely delicious, and super affordable with the $10 lunch specials. We had pizza bread for entree, which was very nice. As a main, I had past with roasted chicken and a creamy white sauce with walnuts – absolutely divine. I was so full by the end of it that I didn’t have room for dessert! But I would love to come back next time to try it out.

After being fed up with those pretentious, arty and pricey fine dining restaurants,we came to DaVinci for a proper meal. This is exactly what we want – a solid and wonderful dining experience with great value. The wine list is an exciting bonus for our meal – extensive selection, resonable price and many by the glass. Friendly & efficient service.
Don’t miss the Tiramisu, the best I have ever tried. Highly recommend this restaurant!

On a visit to Auckland recently we chose this restaurant because it was near our hotel and looked a bit special – and it was, for all the wrong reasons. We received the worst service I’ve ever experienced, almost comical if it wasn’t so rude. Waitress let out a long-suffering sigh when we asked for the extra place that we’d booked, told us to “wait there” in the middle of the restaurant while she fixed it, stuff like that. Other staff seemed ok but it was really awkward whenever our waitress came, to argue with us about our orders or whatever. Waited 50 minutes for our meals which were pretty disappointing, left hungry. In the end we were just really embarrassed to have invited friends to eat there. Definately the worst part of our trip.

Very disappointing!
My wife and I shared an excellent entrée of big, juicy garlic prawns. The sauce was divine. The wine (a bottle of Dog Point Sav-blanc) was lovely and the service was friendly, efficient and prompt.
But we were both VERY disappointed with our mains! My Spaghetti al Vongole was so over-spiced with hot chili that there was no way I could taste the clams. And my wife’s Spaghetti Bolognese was a disgrace. I tried a couple of mouthsful and found it mediocre and lacking in any character. But my wife’s palate is far more developed than mine and her comment says it all, “If I wanted Dolmio I’d buy it at a supermarket.” It was if the chef had dumped some mince in a saucepan full of a pre-prepared, bulk commercial sauce and smothered the pasta with it.
To Da Vinci’s credit, however, the deserts were very good – although I wouldn’t be surprised if they weren’t prepared elsewhere and brought in. At $144.10 I can’t say it was overpriced, but I’d much prefer to pay more for better Italian food. There is no way we’d ever eat there again.

I have to say I have only had their pizza and desert on three visits. The pizza’s are very bare and you need to order extra toppings personally. Good service though and the deserts are very nice.
