The confit duck was delicious paired with duck fat potatoes. The soup of the day was very enjoyable. Service was very attentive. Will be returning!

We had a very delicious and enjoyable dinner. Nice, calm atmosphere with good classical music. Very clean. Loved the white cloth and fabric napkin detail. Everything we had (snails, soup, bread, lamb, red cabbage, potato gratin, steak, dessert) was amazing! Thank you for also making our baby happy. He loved the gratin and bread. We will be back 🤗

Excellence in fine cuisine. Table of four for dinner. Nice atmosphere, fabulous, slightly French style cuisine, esp the confit de canard.

Food so amazing, I didn't have time to take photos of the incredible scotch fillet i ordered. So delicious and cooked to perfection. My friend had the duck confit, which she said was just amazing. Tasty sides to go with the mains. Great, helpful staff, with good knowledge of what was available that evening. Loved joining in with the family that were celebrating their daughter's birthday, as we sang happy birthday. Definitely a restaurant that I will have on my list when I come back to Wellington.

Had a lovely anniversary meal at Aubergine in January. Service was attentive but not obtrusive, food was delicious. Would definitely go back.

My wife and I were visiting Wellington and out for a walk when we noticed this restaurant. We decided to give it a try and were very impressed with the food, service and ambiance. The crispy duck confit with duck fat baked potatoes was amazing as was the herb roasted lamb rump. Give this place a try and you will not be disappointed.

Cute little restaurant with upscale yet cozy atmosphere. The food was delicious and service was prompt and attentive. I had the scotch fillet, my MIL had lamb, and my husband had pasta aubergine and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The goat cheese toast appetizer was A-plus, as was the sticky date pudding. If we ever visit Wellington again, will be back!

My partner and I live nearby and have had many wonderful meals at Aubergine. The food is always good and the service is excellent. We recently had a family Christmas lunch at Aubergine and were very impressed at how organised things were given that the restaurant was very full. There were ten of us but all our meals arrived in good time and everything was as delicious as when it is just the two of us eating there. I particularly enjoyed my starter of goats cheese and tomato crostin, and my duck main course is an old favourite that I never tire of. Having lunch prepared for us made our Christmas relaxed and easy and we plan to do the same thing next year. Also, $75 for a 3-course meal of such good quality is hard to beat

My wife and I visited Aubergine for Sunday lunch, our first visit for a number of years. We were very pleased to find that the food was still superb, very tasty and beautifully presented. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. We'll be back!
We've just been back, this time with our entire family to celebrate a 150th birthday (Grandfather 80, Daughter 50 and granddaughter 20). We were able to book the entire cafe for the evening and were not disappointed. Owner, Kate, was most accomodating to our wishes and once again the food and service were top class.
