jjs 64 Report post Posted May 23, 2009 Can anyone recommend a good BYO restaurant? End up going to Thai restaurants in Ponsonby every Saturday night... Need to find something different. In either the CBD, Parnell, Mt Eden, Kingsland or Ponsonby. Cheers for your help! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2078 Report post Posted May 23, 2009 Been to Chow on the corner of Parkenham and Sturdee in town? Its mint. Not 100% on the BYO though. http://www.chow.co.nz/ Or if you like Indian there is Raviz in Mission Bay. Plenty in Mission Bay though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tsamb 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2009 (edited) How about Bodrum in Newmarket? Just off the bottom of Khyber Pass on Osborne Street. Nice relaxed atmosphere and good food. <EDIT> (Oh, and it's pretty easy to find a free street park in the evenings around there, too!)

Apex 693 Report post Posted May 23, 2009 My favorite BYO close to town is Da Sette Soldi, they have an awesome atmosphere not quite as good Gina’s but IMO the food is better, there Veil Masala is f**king awesome. There menu is also fussy people and child friendly, so you can BYO quality bottle of wine and eat good food whilst your fussy unimaginative friends order a Hawaiian Pizza and drink Heineken. http://yellow.co.nz/companies/Restaurants/...98542_1403.html Might head there now for a Pizza Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shaneg 0 Report post Posted May 26, 2009 Kingsland.... Neighbourhood Bar, friends of mine own it, and i consulted on the menu Ponsonby.... Rocco, dont know if its byo, but used to be good as i worked there for a bit Parnell... St Tropez is good if you like French food and i worked here also, or Non Solo Pizza is also good CBD... Rice, Sale Street, Northern Steamship, i wrote their menu and helped build it. and of course Tanukis Cave. There are a few more but if you visit either menumania.co.nz the majority of restaurants are on there.. I used to stick to places i worked at or other restaurants owned by the same owners, or my friends worked at, as i always got "looked after" perks of the hospo trade i guess..
