Best meat on chips I've had in New Zealand. Had mixed meat and both were moist and plentiful, salads fresh and tasty too. Wife had chicken on rice and same results for her and my 2 year old. Spotless restaurant. Friendly lady who made our dinner. You will not be disappointed

Absolutely delicious meal and very generous portion sizes! The man serving was also very nice, and it’s pretty sweet that you get to pick 3 sauces. I’d recommend the mixed meat because the lamb and chicken were both amazing!
