Feriza's

In the heart of Auckland's Wynyard Quarter, Feriza's is a Turkish restaurant known for its stunning décor and delicious Mediterranean fare.

Designed to accommodate date nights, family get-togethers and friendly catch-ups, Feriza's is an expansive venue with an inviting atmosphere.

Authentic Turkish dishes are a highlight, and the menu will astound you with the sigara borek—filo pastry rolls filled with feta and potato and served with tzatziki, the crispy battered halloumi chips with an apricot honey drizzle or the grilled octopus served with garlic, herbs, chilli, and olive oil.

For something richer, the slow-cooked lamb with hummus, tomato salsa, roasted almonds, feta crumb and sangak bread will hit the spot. Another highlight is the tagine chicken, braised with spices, garlic, onion, olives and tzatziki and served with aromatic rice. Meanwhile, the baklava sundae is a sweet tooth's dream.

While the food at Feriza's may be reason enough to visit, the restaurant is also proud of its gorgeous interiors. Inspired by Turkish tea gardens, the space has a luxurious feel.
