Up with the best in food, presentation, wine suggestions, liquor menu, but it is the personal touch that makes it great.
Lovely to find some changes in the menu with the extras added to the dish.
Those prawns on skewer with age beef fillet were superb.
And the wine to go with the dish, spot on!

Ian and Deb are superstars.

(Don’t lose your chef, we advised Deb after the first of regular visits. I won’t…I married him, said Deb!)

There recently when Ian emerged from his tiny kitchen towards the end of the evening…and all the diners spontaneously applauded him. Ses it all!!!

Topsail staff and food, add quality to our lives!

We always enjoy dining at Topsail and have never been disappointed with a meal.
Excellent food, which is consistently good, deliciously tasty and beautifully presented. Very pleasant, friendly service. Stunning location with lovely views over the harbour. Great wine list.
The best dining experience in Whangarei. We highly recommend.

Superb location, food and service. I have been to this restaurant several times now and the welcome, the service and the food never fail to live up to expectations. My only request is that perhaps the menu could be varied a little for regulars like myself.

One of our favourite places – always a treat to dine at Top Sail and we do not hesitate to recommend them to our guests at Arches Retreat. Just the peace of sitting on the water and being waited on would be enough, but add to that superb food, great interaction with the hosts and such a lovely atmosphere – why do we ever eat at home!! Thank you TOP Sail!

Stunning!
The only place in New Zealand that I have been served whitebait as they should be. Lightly tossed in seasoned flour, crisp, tasty and garnished with only a slice of lemon. And the mains were to die for too. Great service, stunning view and an awesome wine list. Thank you so much for a memorable dining experience. I and all of my friends will be back!

Fantastic fresh flavoursome food that was a pleasure to eat. A menu that will suit a variety of tastes and prepared to perfection. Very intimate and relaxed with its’ small table numbers. Great attentive staff that are only too happy to please. If you are in Whangarei this little place is certainly worth visiting.
