Too good to pass up! A friend of mine booked a table for us but for some reason the reservation didn’t go through. I was expected to have to go somewhere else but they gave us a table anyway!!! So sweet of them and very unexpected. The drinks were amazing and came very quickly. And the set course was phenomenal. This is a must visit if you are in Christchurch. The decor is understated and elegant. Not to fussy with very intimate seating. Everything you could want. And the chef was actually interested if we enjoyed our food. Top notch full stop.

Their menu change everyday. They provide a 3 course menu; with options of meat or vege for entree and main. We tried both vege and meat dishes. They are Okay, on the day we go, all dishes are a little sour. I think I will go back again when we go to Christchurch again.

We loved Story. The chef's choice menu takes away the need to choose, which was no problem because everything sounded delicious and included a great vegetatian option. It also was delicious! We were tea-total for the night so didn't sample the wines but the zero beers were lovely. Will definitely return, and definitely recommend

My husband and I had an excellent experience at Story last night for our wedding anniversary. The waitress was lovely, each dish was mouth watering and interesting, and we didn't have to make a single decision with it being a set menu. Such a great way to dine. Oh and vegetarian options were included in the set menu...Thank you. x

Epic restaurant! The food hère is exceptional, exciting and unexpected. The Chef Shafeeque is friendly and when we ordered the same dish again (because it was so good), he whipped up for us a variant of the same dish which was better than the original.Amazing food and service.

Story is a most excellent restaurant. They have a 3-course set menu they change every week. This week we started with an excellent salmon and juniper dish. This is a classic west-coast USA salmon combination executed perfectly, and the chardonnay pairing was just wonderful! The second course was a duck a l'orange to die for. I have always loved this dish, and made it several times myself - they executed it perfectly. But for me, the best dish was the dessert. It was a magnificent combination of lemon curds, tiny dollops of cream, pear puree, two types of biscuits, and two types of meringue. Each part of the dessert was delicious, but put together it was truly sublime. It was so good that while I sipped the dessert wine - which as excellent - I quickly decided to have sips of water to separate the wine and the dessert as there is no wine that could possibly match the quality of the gestalt experience of eating that dessert. My wife and I will be back, and I recommend anyone go visit - repeatedly!

Such a nice meal! We were walking on the street when we saw this little restaurant with some fancy cookbooks on the front window and we decided to give it a try.3 course set menu only, my kind of offering where I don't need to stress over what to chose out of an extensive menu.Starter was a miso glazed eggplant with a pickled onion, cashew and mint salad. Delightful.Main was lamb rump with courgette, potato and pesto. So tasty!Dessert was a slightly savoury chocolate mousse, rhubarb granite and cardamon cream. Very playful.Will definitely be back on my next trip to Christchurch.
