Went to Grasshopper on a Tuesday evening in August 2010 for a 25th birthday celebration. Wonderful restaurant, gorgeous decor, and the food was absolutely amazing – the most tender and delicious sirloin steak I’ve ever eaten, and the wild rice was lovely. Did not have to wait long for our food, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be going back to Grasshopper!

Nice location and restaurant setting, we went on a Saturday night and it had a good atmosphere – not too busy, not quiet. I had the Bangkok style blue cod which overall had lovely flavours, but I couldn’t help but notice a ‘fishy’ smell and taste which really shouldn’t have been there if the fish was super fresh. Others at my table had green curry which was fantastic, and the crab – at $30 I thought it was overpriced for the few pieces you got (you don’t get a whole crab). The caramel sago dessert with water chestnuts is worth trying and yum. Friendly service and they didn’t have any issues with each person paying separately.

I love Thai and Indian food. This restaurant is one of the biggest and most modern Thai restaurants in Auckland. The food is delicious, the environment is nice, but the price is a bit expensive for me.

We got a very nice welcome from one of the staff members. Once we were sitting at our tables, no one bothered to give us the menu. Finally when we got it after a few minutes, no one come to take our order. Our starters and mains arrived at the SAME TIME leaving absolutely no place on the tiny table even for a glass. By the time we finished out starters, our mains were cold. No one came to ask if everything was ok. We had to keep empty plates on the floor as there was no place on the table for us to put our plates. We had to go get a waiter for extra rice in the middle of the meal as no one seemed to be interested. Food was ok but the whole experience was miserable. I would never go back to that place ever again… even for free

Our friend recommend us to try out their business lunch. It was so great we had lamb shank in mussamun curry. It’s so yummy and such a great value. The next day we went back to try their quick lunch vow!! even better only $15.00 such a bargain with great food. It make me feel like I’m in Bangkok again.

We regularly go to Grasshopper for lunch, with clients or for inpromptu work lunches. The food is consistently good, well priced and FAST!

Having eaten there once before and had a great meal we tried it on New Years Eve. Big mistake – 40 minutes for a cocktail to be made and they arrived after our entree had been delivered (a bottle of wine that was ordered 10 minutes after the cocktails were ordered came before the cocktails!)
There was then a wait of about an hour before anybody came to clear our entree plates and for the main to be served. Beef dish – meat was was tough and very average.

Husband and I went for lunch. Had the express set menu. Quick and easy. Was enough in the serving for lunch.

VERY BAD SERVICE! The waitress spilt an entire glass of wine over my suit & didn’t even give me a free glass of wine because “she didn’t do it intentionally” (really?!) & my friend ordered the $30 set lunch menu that included a free glass of wine. The lady said that came free with the set lunch wasn’t available and to pick one from the wine list. And when we went to pay they said that she had to pay for the other wine as it wasn’t from the set menu! & all they offered me for my suit was to dry clean it IF I walked all the way back there (they refused to accept me sending them the dry cleaning bill) DISGUSTING
