SAI Thai is a fantastic modern Thai restaurant with cool decor and great service. We love the Meang Kana starter. And it is so handy to the apartment being across the road from our main entrance.

If you want to go somewhere special for dinner, then Bistronomy is the place. This is what they have to say about their restuarant, " At Bistronomy, we’re firm believers in making everyday eating a little bit extraordinary. We’re one part local, one part global, and one part special sauce, infusing fresh Hawke’s Bay produce with far-flung ideas to create dishes which will often surprise and always delight. Our menu changes with the seasons, inspired by the abundance and variety of edible offerings from soil & sea. We’re less about fine dining and more about fun dining, and like to make food you can share, food you can talk about, food you’ll want more of, and food you’ll come back for".
