Highwater Eatery

This food was CRAZY good The lamb was probably the most delicious lamb I've ever had, my girlfriend isn't usually a fan of lamb and she loved it too The chicken karaage was packed with flavour, super crispy, but still juicy. My only complaint would be not enough pickled daikon, it went so well with the intense seasoning on the chicken The flounder was so so tender and delicate and YUMMY. Only needed a spoon to gently push it off the bones They even had gluten free bread as an alternative to their homemade dinner roll Almost everything on the menu is gluten free, and they were very confident about making it all coeliac safe We couldn't finish all this, had to take some back to the hotel and have it for breakfast

The food was delicious love the little side of pickled cucumber but one third of the pork chops was fat which I didn’t like so much. The oysters were great super juicy with the bit of lemon juice and the butter was salty though it went perfectly great together. I usually don’t eat raw oysters. But this was an interesting try.

For me this is by far the best restaurant in Wellington. Amazing food, with impecable sourcing of ingredients and cooking, one of the best natural wine selections and friendly, helpful (and handsome) service. My only wish is they'd change up the menu a bit more frequently, as I'm there with friends and clients almost every week!

Modern restaurant with great food. Came early on a Tuesday night and it was almost full by the time we had our mains. Most of us enjoyed the smaller dishes more than the mains, but that is not to say that the mains weren’t great. Highwater Eatery is our first stop at wellington (and nz) and needless to say it has set the bar high! Notified restaurant prior that we’re bringing a one year old, were allocated a good spot with ample space for the pram but no highchair. The little one grizzled here and there but the restaurant was loud enough to cover her cries.
