The Paradise - Rotorua Lakes District

Have just had an amazing dinner. Shared beautiful tapas smoked fish croquettes and mushroom and cheese arancini chicken nibbles and then pork ribs. Desserts were great fried bread finger licking good. My brother and sister in law tried several of the gin flavours and enjoyed all of their choices favourite bring the grapefruit gin.

Exceptional dining experience tonight with my partner! All meals we had were delicious, but their pan fried fish sliders took the prize tonight and that’s even from a partner that doesn’t normally like fish (sorry forgot a photo as was that tasty)!! Hats off to the ladies here for a great experience and tasty meals!! Would highly recommend and also re visit.

Walked in without knowing what to expect, but loved the aranchini and caramel cheesecake giving 4 because the garlic bread was okayish

Can't believe we didn't know about this place, haven't had a kai like that for a long time, everything was absolutely amazing cooked to perfection, great kiwi flavours, creamed paua ravioli was to die for, Shellfish meal very nice, I don't usually eat shellfish but tried some last night and wow! Cocktails great too. Good music, staff and atmosphere.we will definitely be telling everyone to come there, and will be back for sure.

One of the best meals I've ever had, and I eat out a lot. From the minute we arrived, service went the extra mile. We ordered paua and panchetta ravioli, eggplant bao buns garlic bread with pecorino, and two cocktails. The food was fantastic, and showed great thought, value, and attention to detail. For example, the bao buns came with three house-made pickles that were great in combination, and the garnishes on the garlic bread were like delicious mini-sides. The cocktails were very nice, better than most I've had in Rotorua. The people were friendly, charming, and very helpful. They obviously love their workplace. We had a memorable time, and can't wait to return.
