Very yummy and well cooked food – great flavours. Good wine list and the service is friendly and efficient – especially the guy at the front desk. Bar is cool and the outside area is most condusve to a great night.

food was great, only thing that slightly let it down was our waitress, don’t know if it was a mid week thing, but I felt we were kind of annoying to her.
Loved how we could thank the chefs on the way out. atmosphere was grand.

Had a great night @ Dragonfly – cool cocktail in the rear bar and sampled some interesting dishes recommended by the staff – look forward to next time soon.

Have eaten at Dragonfly before and had fantastic experience, meal delicious staff great. Returned because we had enjoyed it so much and took an out of town guest – sadly however this time felt let down, delayed service, long wait for meal staff not quite so on-to-it

I went to Dragonfly last night for the first time. Wow so enjoyed it. I didn’t dine but sat outside in the area off the bar and the staff were very attentive and constantly asking us if we needed anything. We had some of the starters and they were delicious. The squid and the three cheese wontons were yummy. Will have to go back to try the restaurant. Loved the decor and ambience.

Those of you looking for a new spin on contemporary Asian need to go to Dragonfly. Service was very attentive, the dining room is style plus and the food will keep you coming back for more. We had the fish of the day (salmon), tofu (fabulous!), chicken for the kids. The wine list has single vineyard stuff so you just don’t end up with Roaring Meg.

The bar and lounge out the back look quite cool but we weren’t there to toast all night but looks like you could!

Me and my friends were visiting Wellington for just three days and happen to drop by Dragonfly. We ordered three mains, The Yellow Fin, Tofu, Pork and some desserts. All taste really great! Cooked perfectly. They were well presented and reasonably priced. Staff are very friendly from the start until you leave. Place is very clean and tidy. Nice ambiance. Great place for dinner dates!

My friends and I had dinner here last Tuesday, and all we can say is WE LOVE THIS PLACE – the food were just so amazing- yellow fin, tofu (this is one dish that we would like to have some more, this dish is just perfect!!), prawn and pork (awesome combination!!!), market fish (very clever for including slices of bananas, love it!!)
Thank you for the staff who are accommodating and always smiling
The place is just wonderful.
We will definitely go back.

Dined there early Saturday night. Place was busy and greeting was ok, we were seated without reservation, told we only had an hour, which was fine. Food is average, sauces were very sweet, chicken rib starter looked and tasted like it was from a supermarket freezer. Crab was ok. Chicken breast main was again very sweet but served with fresh salad, which was a relief. My partners eggplant was average.
There is potential there, but it has not been realised as yet.

We were extremely impressed by this restaurant. It looks cool – a lot of thought has gone into the design – and the service was excellent. There is a good range of wines by the glass and a much more impressive list by the bottle. And the food was outstanding – we started with yellow fin tuna and three cheese parcels, followed by snapper and eggplant dishes. The flavours are fresh and each dish was perfectly cooked. The tasting plate we shared for dessert – four different desserts in one – had really interesting flavours and was a perfect finish to the meal. We’ll definitely be going back.

I had the same sort of experience as Crystal. Friends and I were in the bar on a Friday night, from about 4.30 onwards. Staff were not attentive at all, they would pick up your empty glass but not ask if you needed more. I had a tab though so didn’t get asked to pay first which was good. The decor would be great – if they got rid of that dirty green tarp as a shelter! one of the staff had to keep emptying it of water as it pooled in one corner. And the bamboo on the back wall needs to be thicker, seeing the dirty wall behind it just wrecks the whole image.
The place certainly needs some improvement and I can’t say I’m itching to go back there.

Went here for dinner and had a great experience the staff were extremely accommodating and helpful. We had for our first sharing experience the soft crab – this is truely divine a taste delight, along with the yellow fin tuna which was superb, dumplings – magnificant and the spring rolls all of these were simply divine. I opted for the clams for my main which is not a dish I would usually have but would definetly have this again, very nice. The angus curry, yep that was delightful also accompanied by the asian greens which were tasty and succulent.
Now, if you want to have a fabulous experience where the hospitality is spot on look no further not to mention the food is of top quality – only downfall will be that this place will become so popluar you won’t be able to get a table!!

Crab absolutely gorgeous! Son in law eggs -a taste of Asia. Salmon main beautifully cooked and the duck was to die for! Sticky rice was the best we had tasted. A great addition to wellington’s restaurants. Perfect.

One of the worst restaurants I have ever been to.

Went at around 9 on a Saturday night so it was quite busy and the girl sent us down the back to the bar. The decor was nice but we had to find out own table. Had to get back up to get drinks and get our own menus.

Quite possibly the most insulting thing was 15 minutes after making our order the waiter comes over and tells us we have to pay for our food before it would come out… Wtf??

That aside, the crab wasn’t fresh, the carpaccio was sliced so thickly it was chewy in your mouth, the clams were half cooked and the spring rolls were over done. We were given no cutlery or napkins and the food was dumped on our table so fast we had to get up again and ask for some. They forgot water until the end of the meal as well.

When we left nobody said thanks for coming or goodbye either. While the fit out is amazing and beautiful I will definitely not be coming back here. It was really expensive and not worth it.

Fantastic. Service, atmosphere and food were all fantastic.
I had the clams which were delicious and super fresh with subtle flavours that complemented the shellfish. My friends had the pork and prawns, which was also wonderful and then the chick, again – fantastic. I cant wait to go back again

Popped in for an early meal…..very lovely decor, I had the eggplant main. STUNNNNING! will def. go again.

I went there for dinner last week. The interior is beautiful and intimate. I had the yellow fin tuna as an entree. It was fresh and cooked to perfection.
I then had the chicken as a main which was nice but tasted my friends Eggplant salad and that was totally amazing. I have no idea what the flavours were but it reminded me of Asia so much.
I had sticky rice pudding for dessert. Its so good I went back a few nights later just for dessert to have it again.

The bar out the back is a surprise as from the front you have no idea it is there. The garden by the bar seems to be quite sheltered from the Wellington wind. I’ll be going back there again that’s for sure.
