Baduzzi

Baduzzi offers an unforgettable dining experience. Renowned for its delectable meatballs, crafted from locally sourced ingredients, the restaurant boasts a menu that celebrates the rich flavours of Italy while showcasing the best of New Zealand's culinary offerings.

The sister restaurant of renowned eatery The Grove, Baduzzi displays sophistication and style while steadfastly maintaining that laid-back Kiwi charm. And everyone there, including Head Chef Federico, understands that delicious food tastes best shared.

For pasta aficionados, the Cappellaci alla zucca presents a perfect harmony of sweet and savory, with delicate pumpkin-filled pasta parcels bathed in amaretto-infused sage butter, topped with smoked ricotta and toasted pine nuts for a satisfying crunch.

For those who enjoy for the flavours of the sea, the pan seared line-caught fish brings a refreshing bite to the secondi plate, paired with a rich almond crema and bagna cauda. They say no one does shared dining quite like the Italians, and Baduzzi is no exception.
