Just returned from having lunch at Live Fish – excellent food with generous servings. We went with a GrabOne voucher just to see what it was like and had a great experience and will definitely return. Service very good and they had no problem accommodating one of our party who cannot eat onion. Very good presentation of food – our only problem was having difficulty finding the restaurant, maybe they could improved their signage

Dined here last week with my boyfriend for the second time. We thought we would give them another try to see if they had improved on the food. Dissapointed to say they hadnt. Menu is very hard to understand and is not clear about what you are getting. The food was very average for the extravagant prices. The service however was excellent, all the waiters were helpful, courteous and jovial. hopefully they can up their standard of food, def not worth the price.

Dined here on a Wednesday night; and my partner and I had a great time. We ordered the fried chicken wings, pork belly on pepper sauce and seafood fried rice. Each dish was spectacular and without having to wait ages to be served. Portion sizes were great and beyond reasonable for the price. More importantly, the staff was amazing. We were greeted with warm smiles from the moment we stepped in until we left. Despite having many customers that night, we had just the right amount of attention from the staff which resulted to a great dining experience. All in all, we will definitely come back to try more from their amazing menu. Well done, Live Fish – that’s another pair of satisfied tummies

We were planning to have oysters for late lunch at the Fish Market, but the kitchen was already closed for the day so we just strolled along the waterfront to look for a place that served oysters. We saw LIVE FISH and thought we could give it a try. Well, all of us (2 children, 4 adults) enjoyed everything that we ordered! Seafood platter, fresh oysters, oysters with vermicelli and garlic sauce, sweet and sour pork, mussels in garlic sauce, fried rice… All delicious. The waitress was also very friendly. We are actually coming back for my birthday this coming weekend! I highly recommend this restaurant. I also admire the fact that they read the reviews, and take action. Those who’ve had negative experiences at Live Fish should give them another chance… You will be impressed

Great atmosphere and good food! =) I have to say Livefish is one of the best seafood restaurants I have tried so far..Fresh seafood and great variety of food in the menu.

Staff are friendly and great customer service! Would def come back for sure.

Deserves A++ for the great food and service.

Went to Live Fish for dinner with our Groupy vouchers last week and I was quite amazed with the food there after reading all the bad reviews! Every dish we ordered came in generous portions in contrary to what I read in other reviews.

The diamond shell was definitely the star dish of the night, and I would highly recommend others to try. Other dishes were also cooked to high standards as expected from a waterfront restaurant.

As for the service/ambience, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the tables were well spaced to provide a relaxed atmosphere.

The relatively high price is expected from a high-end restaurant and I will definitely return to try the huge range of seafood Live Fish has to offer.

Worst Chinese restaurant I have ever been. The atmosphere and view is great, but that is the only positive thing about this restaurant. It’s over priced for the food you get: $18 for a plate of tossed salad with oriental seasoning… The size was very small and that was more like a side I could have had in any cafe restaurant for $8 and the “oriental” seasoning was just a bit of sesame oil. The service was also very poor. we had to ask several time for a jug of water as well as for a glass as there was 1 missing on our table. Then the waitress just grabbed a glass around and as she put it on our table, realized it was a dirty one. Then we asked for a knife and were given a dirty knife. I would not recommend this place.

Me and my boyfriend bought the voucher for Live Fish and we honestly got quite a bit worried about dining there the day before we were gonna go because of the bad reviews about the place.

But you know what, IT’S NOT BAD AT ALL. Maybe the previous reviews were talking about the “old” restaurant. They’ve clearly improved on a lot of things. As we were having our dinner, I was a bit scrutinising the place, the service, food, etc. As everything was waaay waaay better than what was previously commented, I am giving it a 5-star!

The food was delicious! We got the seafood platter, salmon sashimi, mussels in creamy garlic sauce and scallops with vegetables. They were all tasty and me and my boyfriend left the place with our stomach filled and satisfied. The sashimi was so fresh! You can just tell. Actually, everything tasted fresh. In addition to that, I really liked their orange juice. It’s fresh too! It was full of pulp and flavour- not too sweet and not too sour- and it was cheap. We were gonna get paddle crab but unfortunately, they ran out that night.

Service was good too. Not the best but clearly not the worst either. The main waiter, I suppose, did an exceptional job. The others were okay, you can see one waiter per area of the restaurant just kind of standing by and waiting for orders, etc. So it’s good.

We’ll definitely go back there to try their other food.

This restaurant is worth giving a try.

Yum, went here tonight and had the clams in black bean sauce and the fried whole gernad with Thai chili sauce, wanted to try a restaurant on wynyard quarter and was glad I found this one, cheaply priced but good food

24 September – worst dining experience of my life. Food order took over an hour to arrive – when it did after constant nagging – poorly prepared plus my daughter’s mussels had been left off by mistake. Rice was like plastic and chicken portions small. My wife’s sauce had a human hair in it. When they replaced the sauce they did so with tartar sauce not chili sauce. Eventually decided to leave – daughter still no food. Described to manager – no apology or offer to reduce the bill – just ‘Well mussels take longer to cook’. To build a great restaurant takes a lot mor than this. Avoid this at all costs!!!!!!!!!!!

We had the most the most awkward experience dining here. We came here 10/9/11 Saturday around 5-5:30pm thinking we didn’t have a reservation so we better come while dinner rush hasn’t started. We came in and they had one table and we were sat on the most awful area which is next to the cashier where everybody is passing. The worst thing is they all standing right in front of our table. They were chatting and we felt like being stared at the whole time. The food was terrible! We ordered beef on pepper sauce which was ok but expensive for what it is. We also ordered chicken lightly fried with salt and pepper and all I could taste is the crumb, salt, pepper and chillies. Chicken was barely there. It was very unpleasant to eat. The most disappointing part is they were all standing right next to our table and didn’t even bother asking us how our food was. We barely touched the chicken (if there was any chicken in it). Everything was so unprofessional in this place. Place was empty and sat us on the worst area of the restaurant, staff were chatting, standing around us like we weren’t there. Manager didn’t bother asking how everything was when my partner came to pay. Such a shame to have a restaurant like this in one of the best area in city. I would never come back here and would never recommend this place to everyone I know.

AWFUL awful awful. Terrible service, too much deep fried food on the menu, unhelpful staff who could hardly speak English, deep fried calamari cold in the middle, drinks delivered to wrong people, took ages to be served. Like an Asian faulty towers but they weren’t rude. Shocking.

great service but misleading expensive menu. Avoid this place if you are hungry. The seafood platter for three at lunchtime would only suit hobbit sized appetites. Very sad example of a restaurant in such a cool part of Auckland.
