Professor McFussy and I found a table al fresco in the sunshine. Nice spot to pass the time of day. We had perused the menu outside the establishment and our orders were taken almost immediately upon seating. I have no idea of the time taken between order and delivery but the wait was not arduous. The meals were delicious and very tasty. I particularly like the flame grill flavour of the bacon. McFussy commented that the sausage was pale (not enough cramelisation) but tasty with interesting flavours. They were busy, coffee followed the food. We were warned that the barista was coping with an influx so our expectations were only heightened. The Professor loved her McFussy coffee but my long black" lost one point because the crema had all but disappeared when served. It hit the spot otherwise. Hopefully an outlier event. The staff were busy but attentive to their customers. An excellent dining experience."

Second time we have been - with friends and children - and they have looked after us beautifully! Cocktails tonight were fabulous - loved the fish and risotto - great night all round!

This may be the best steak I have ever eaten. So yum! Really good service too. Friendly, down to earth and the food came out nice and quick.

So, so good. Their new summer menu was outstanding. Everything we ordered was cooked beautifully. Delicious. Excellent service, divine cocktails, and superb wines. Highly recommend.

Friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Food took an incredibly long time to arrive and when it did, we were definitely disappointed to see the two thin pieces of duck breast placed nicely on the plate that we paid $40 for. Food tasted good however the wait and the portion left us a bit hangry.

Where do I start? Such a fantastic local eatery. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough! Very talented Chefs, lovely service, and beautiful location right on the Ōrewa beach front. Don't miss this local gem!

Excellent service considering only one waitress and they were very busy. She was so helpful and a great sense of humour. The meals were so good, everyone at our table raved about them. Went back on the weekend (twice) for the recommended scones that are beautiful.

My wife and I had possibly our best ever dining experience at Kawau Bay Kitchen a few weeks back. You may not get the portion size you expect, but the symphony of flavours in the food easily resolves any concern. The service was impeccable from every one of the team, and they even managed to work out a veeery tasty non-alcoholic Cosmo for us. My wife's also a big fan of sticky date pudding and the Kawau sticky date is the best I've ever had, hands down. Thanks so much! Hope to be back again soon.

I was just walking along looking at someplace for a Sunday Breakfast and Coffee.. was not disappointed, I was greeted with smiles, served a wonderful Oat Mocha, and had a really yummy Bacon eggs Benedict. The poached eggs were perfect.. I would definitely recommend supporting this little cafe restaurant.. I'll be back..

It was... OK. I was very pleased to see that there was a vegan lunch-onwards menu and would have loved to have seen more than one vegan option on the breakfast menu, but I got over it, got the spicy tofu scramble and loved it.Service was alright. While I was fairly well looked after, I noticed folk that weren't being served and had to keep asking for things (water, cutlery, menus).I also took another star away because of the toilet situation. Guys... what is going on there!? While the front of house is clean and modern looking, the unisex, shared toilets with Tasca whereby you have to walk through and view the back of the Tasca kitchen and through a dirty alcove is just not pleasant, at all.The floor was all wet and zero love was given to this area of the business. Some air freshener or nice soap even, would have helped soften the grossness of that area.
