The Engine Room - Auckland New Zealand

Hadn't been for years, so 3 of us decided to make the big trek across the bridge to try them again.  Hadn't been since the refurbishment so was good to see the bigger space.  Having said that, they need to do something about the heating, as our table was near the door and the restaurant was cold my friend and I kept our coats on the whole time.  All of this was made better by the excellent food goats cheese soufflé is still a wonder to behold, and I can never go past the Steak Frites.  Our service was a bit patchy to start with, until Natalia took over and then things were much better!  Shame it's so far away.

I went this place with my gf.<br/ Well... such a great wine selections.<br/ I had ordered duck and my gf ordered beef cheek.<br/ AMAZING. The portion was too small but worth it.<br/ Little surprised waitress knows how to attend customers and kindly support to find out what I want to eat and drinks. She definitely knows the very good knowledges of the foods and wines as well.<br/ Everything was great but gave 4 because of too small portion for this price.<br/ <br/ But definitely visit this place again.<br/

Went here with my Fiance for 5 year anniversary after this restaurant was recommended to us as one of the best in Auckland<br/  Excellent friendly service from staff<br/ Nice setting (But not that special This would be the only downside in my view trying to read menu from the wall) But I'm not going to deduct any points for this. <br/ <br/ Food I had the best steak I have ever had in my life from this restaurant. The desert was also amazing. We shared the coconut desert.<br/ <br/ Cocktails were good, lots of character<br/ <br/ We had such a great experience that we are going back again soon. We were planning to go last Sunday but sad to see they are closed on Sundays.

The best food in the world.....just a bit expensive but you have to treat your self now and then. Every part of my steak perfect and desert to die for.

We went here to try the steak since it was listed at @urbanlist as one of the best steak. We were not disappointed though. Tried the pork schnitzel since they recommended it as best seller and it tasted great as well. I just hoped the vegetable side dish can be improved. Friendly staff.
