Fisherman's Plate Seafood

Fisherman's plate has got its mojo back and the food is better than ever. The laksa and the satay prawn are my favourite dishes - both packed with flavour and very grounding.

We stopped by because this place was well rated and well reviewed. Unfortunately, we ended up getting scammed.My wife and I came here because I was hankering for some fish n chips. Surprisingly, it also offered Vietnamese food, which appealed to my wife. After finishing ordering our food at the register, we went to pay with a credit card. After tapping and paying and getting a recipe, we were then told that they did not accept our American Visa credit card, because the restaurant did not have a deal with the credit card banking company. Apparently, this was an issue with American credit cards--which was news to me. This was not relayed before we ordered nor was there any warning posted at the entrance or cashier. You'd think that if this was a problem, they should have notified us first. Plus, no other restaurant in our entire one and a half weeks in New Zealand had any trouble accepting our credit cards.The cashier seemed to be a young guy who probably hadn't worked there that long, but the owner or manager behind him told us that we could pay by cash. We told the we didn't have any, so she said we could go to an ATM around the corner to withdraw cash and pay. All of this sounded way to much of a hassle and kind of strange, so we decided we didn't want our order after all. We asked them to cancel our charge and refund the amount, but they said that the credit card would not charge, repeating their lack of deal with American credit cards. We asked for a receipt or some proof, but they refused, with the manager being kind of rude about it and not apologetic at all.Lo and behold, when we got back, our credit card was charged for the food that we ended up not receiving. So they lied about the credit card thing and took our money to add insult to injury.This is an absolutely ridiculous business practice, and we're in the process of disputing the charge. But the fact that we had to go through all this inconvenience reflects extremely poorly on this restaurant. We would recommend that people steer clear unless they want to play roulette with bad credit card charges.

Great Vietnamese rice rolls. Tasty on their own, even better with the satay sauce! Reasonable/expectable price. Service was quick even when the place was nearly fully seated. Good range of menu, includes common Vietnamese favourites! Staff are friendly and lovely.

The food speaks for itself. Delicious

Satay tofu and vegetables is superb. Best tofu takeaway dish I can think of in Wellington. The Pad Thai is also great. Haven’t tried the fish and chips but they look good.

One of the most authentic Bun Bo Hue I’ve had in Wellington, satisfied the craving :)

The food was good, but portions were a bit too large. They also only had a few items of their menu available. Apart from that the staff was friendly and the food was good. Would recommend if you want regular fish and chips.

Their fish and chips are awesomeI also enjoyed the Laksa.The inside is pretty narrow

Excellent Vietnamese cuisine. The soup is rich and pho smooth. Spring roll is crispy and roast meat is tender. Reasonably large serving and reasonable prices. S
