Wow – blown away by this place! I went there the weekend just been for my 26th and I have absolutely no complaints. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful (especially with one gluten intolerant person in our crew) and the food, my god the food…

Considering I am a complete steak freak I had hugely high hopes for JSH and they delivered on all counts. Started off with the steak tartare (bit of a raw meat evening for me) which was fabulous and a great portion size. Went with the ‘special’ Hawkes Bay Scotch for my main, requested blue, and it was perfect. I decided on the syrah and truffle jus as the sauce which was INCREDIBLE, as were the other sauce choices around the table.

Every side we ordered was executed perfectly – special mentions to the candied kumara (you MUST try this), the creamy spinach, the ginger carrot and the truffle mash.

And as a special treat for my birthday they did up a lovely ‘Happy Birthday’ message in chocolate on a plate, with two truffles. Cute!

I am salivating just writing this review. I would most definitely go back and would recommend to anyone who love steak.

It was my 60th birthday treat from my kids, heard alot about the place.
My daughter and I ordered the signature steak – they had run out?
Ordered alternative – arrived cold!
My son ordered the wine – they had run out of that particular choice as well.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!

Service was outstanding and food was delicious! Relaxing atmosphere and perfectly cooked steak… Couldn’t have asked for more! Best meal we’ve had in a while! Definitely recommended to all!

Wow. Just wow. Subliminal service, fantastic food, aewsome atmosphere. I simply cannot give enough praise.

I have a very uncommon and severe food intolerance to salicylates which severely restricts what I can eat; put it this way – it is faster to list what I can eat, rather than what I can’t. So I called ahead to arrange my menu ahead of time as many things would require a little extra thought and preparation. Chef Cory went above and beyond in order to help me – even surprising me with my own tailored entree AND dessert when it was discovered that I couldn’t eat any of the entree’s or desserts on the menu.

I was absolutely treated like a VIP which is so different to feeling like an absolute hindrance to the nights service. It was as if Chef enjoyed the challenge rather than being put out by it. Not only did the Chef go above and beyond but the wait staff and Maitre’d were polite, welcoming, funny, and knew what how to do their jobs well – without the stuffy bowing and scraping of other establishments.

While not exactly cheap, we paid a lot less than we expected to – my entree and our first drinks were given on the house!

We will most certainly be back!

One of our favourite restaurants. We regularly return. Fantastic starters and perfect steak every time. Also good wine list to choose a yummy red to go along with the steak. Love that you order your own sauces and sides to really customise your main. Love it!

Have always waned to go here as it as always been recommended, but while the steaks are nice (Good size and very well cooked) that is about the only part I can recommend.
The topping I had with my steak Spinach/Blue Cheese tasted like it had only walked passed the blue cheese on its way out of the kitchen but did not contain any.

Service is ok with being asked four times if the meal was ok but with no interest in your response. But they did make sure your glass was always full, this being water or wine.

I suppose I was expecting better/more as far as the restaurant was concerned but it was quite small and in need of some TLC. esp the restrooms.

Awesome winter hideaway with great steak and a great red wine list

Ever since my first experience with jervois prime-rib, I will only order steak at Jervois if I have the choice, others just not the same. Remember to pre-order prime-rib in advance. Service is friendly but can do with more support as recent visit on friday 04mar2011, my party of four with 3 pre-ordered primeribs and a salmon main with 4 sides, then two desserts to share, took almost 3 hours because short waitstaff busy. Note to self, not a place to go on weekend perhaps.

A very special and unique dining experience. We had the special wagyu (a “religious experience”), the sirloin, the rib eye for two, and the best french onion soup I have ever had in my life. Highly recommend and will definitely be back.

The meal was good but I don’t know what the fuss is all about.

The signature prime rib was really good but the other steaks we had i.e. rib eye and angus eye fillets were pretty standard.

Good service.

This place turned me vegetarian, but I have to say the sides are amazing, particularly the creamed spinach, fries and onion rings.

Service usually very good.

Absolutely devine. World class with great service. Totally recommended.

This is my favourite steakhouse in new Zealand and the sauces are divine, My favourite is the 200g Black Angus eye fillet off the bone with a simple syrah sauce served medium.
They have a wide selection of food including new Zealand lamb, Tuna, Salads, Delicious bread and the service is very attentive. For an incredible dining experience I would recommend Jervois steakhouse.
You will not be disappointed.

Simply the best. Great food, atmosphere,staff and service.
Cheers for a fantastic experience

One of my favourite restaurants in Auckland. Meat just shouldn’t taste this good. Fine dining at it’s best. Recommend for anyone looking for a classy looking restaurant with a menu created by one of New Zealand’s top chefs.

The steak was second to none that I’ve ever tasted. Superbly cooked to perfection. The other’s in our party had the fish and they rated it superb as well. Overall, well worth the cost (450g steak ~$50) and will happily go back.
