Date night and I had been wanting to take my wife to 88 for several years but we had just not gotten round to it.. just as well we booked. Parking nearby and walking past three empty restaurants then opening the door to 88 and finding it packed to the rafters with happy sounding punters, was a very good start. They were really busy for a cold Thursday night. We settled down to the menu and selected entrees and mains. Mailyn got her Mango crusher and declared it wonderful whilst I had a Garage project Fugazi, a tasty lower alcohol beer. There selections of wines look great too.The entrees, duck and fish cakes and prawn were stunning and the the main meal with the fish wrapped in banana leaves and my rice crepe filled with prwans were divine.The service was lovely, the waiting staff really helpful and not over bearing at all and we used our Entertainment Book Card and got a decent discount as well.As we left we felt like booking in again tomorrow, the whole experience was really that good. We will be back, with bells on. 5 starsHi, thank you for taking your wife to our restaurant, we are happy that you stopped by. We are excited that you enjoyed our food and service. We hope to see you again soon and try something else,as our menu changes often now with Luke (the original head chef) back in the kitchen doing what he's enjoy. Thanks again.

Dragonfly

Reviewed By John491

Dragonfly has a menu that spoils you for choice. The second you step into this restaurant you are enveloped in the romantic atmosphere, a phase I would rarely use!The food is delicious. Start with the Miso soup, hot and full of flavour. Next the Korean crispy chicken, 5 wings, a touch of spice, excellent. For main, twice cooked pork belly with mushrooms,onions and broccoli with a lovely gravy- delicious. We also had an egg based fried rice. Dessert, the plum tart with Tamorillo and ice cream, excellent. For such a busy place the service was excellent. If we lived in Wellington this place would be a regular eatery. You must try this place, highly recommended.

Dropped in here with some friends for a catch up and bite to eat. We’d thought ahead and booked, which is almost essential as this place is popular. And with good reason.A diverse range of authentic South East Asian flavours are on offer, with something to please all tastes.The squid was tender, with a delicious spicy mayo, duck salad with orange was refreshing and bright, pork belly meltingly tender and I’d challenge anyone who says they don’t like the chicken wings.It’s all served up with a freshness of service that’s unpretentious.Recommended

Great delicious authentic Vietnamese food. Great place in town. The restaurant is decorated really well, nice tables, the staff are really friendly.Lots of great Vietnamese food like curries. soup the pancake.I order the Vietnamese pancake with pork and prawn. The pancake looked amazing, it was big, This was my second time eating a Vietnamese pancake and this one was the best.It had pork mince with carrots, spring onions, prawns and more. The sauce was a diping the pancake with the lettuce leaf was a bite of Vietnam. Another family member order the chicken curry and she said that it was delicious and the best curry ever.The service was good and quick.The prices are ok, some food are a little expensive for what they are.I would give it 5 stars, but there are still a little tweaking to do with this restaurant.Overall I recommend this restaurant for a taste of Vietnam.Dear sofiaryan7,Thank you so much for your kind review and support! There are always room for improvement, and hopefully we will do better by your next visit.We look forward to seeing you, your family and friends again soon.Kind Regards,Rockyard Team.

Great restaurant found walking round for somewhere to dine. Was busy with most tables full but was accommodated near bar area in fact looking over streetfront. Service was quick and choice of menu and drinks was not to overwhelming. Food was very tasty, well presented and great pricing. Definitely will be going back next time when in Wellington
