Euro Bar & Restaurant

It was a bitterly cold wintry night in Auckland and as we walked towards the seafront restaurant we both confessed we’d had second thoughts about going out at all!
But the warm greetings on our arrival and the fireside table immediately changed that and we settled in for what was going to be a fabulous evening’s dining experience.
Our kingfish entree and a glass of Pinot Gris were the perfect marriage...
Then we had opted for meaty mains- both great choices.
The lamb rump was perfection with pomegranates and the Taupo eye fillet equally flavoursome and beautifully cooked. We both confessed to lingering over our food to make the experience last longer.
Our only mistake was ordering a side of broccoli to accompany our meals. Its smoky flavour and blue cheese sauce were slightly overpowering with our truffle potato mash and would’ve been better eaten as a small stand alone platter.
All in all a gorgeous dining experience and a great way to beat the mid winter blues. Thanks Euro!

Going to euro at the set time of 6pm was a blessing, I found the setting to be more intimate and private - as I assume it would be very busy later on in the evening. I would highly recommend Euro to anyone after a nice meal, and it was an appropriate price for all after the discount was applied. The food was superb and very enjoyable for all parties.
An overall lovely experience. I will be back!

As always, we ordered too much food. Small things like the bread were exquisite. The lady serving us was lovely and ensured our night was going well. For entrees we had bread and calamari, the mains ordered were clams, steak, pork belly and fish with a side of potato puree and broccoli. We all enjoyed our food - which also meant we did not say no to dessert. Which ended the night perfectly.

Great!

Wow Euro. Just wow. Start to finish you are a heavenly experience. I hadn’t visited you for a while and you are as good as you ever were. Our food and wine was superb, we were entranced with how delicious and considered everything was but what made our experience extra special was our charming skilled waitperson. He was delightful. Oh and the view. It’s just so pleasant gazing out over the sparkling waitemata with a glass of bubbles. Thank you Euro.

Excellent service in a welcoming environment, delicious food, impressive wine list!

Wonderful evening. The food was fantastic - started with the evolving snacks then onto eye fillet and finished off with yummy treacle tart. Delicious.

we had a wonderful lunch on Saturday , My husband was a chef so we don't get a lot of going out to dinner time , he was normally in the kitchen ,so we hadn't been to Euro before. We loved everything about it . We love to get a few different starters and mains to try and today was no different . We had the White bait , Oysters , Tartare and calamari for starters and the mains we had the steak , risotto and my husbands favourite Schnitzel !! Loads of cocktails and I was in a food coma but hubby had the best Choc tart ever - Yummy lazy Saturday in town !!

I personally thought the food was rather too salty. I had the Taupo beef and my partner had the cloudy bay clam linguini. However, we did enjoy our experience and the service was great.

A special place. Sublime food and professional friendly service. Each dish was really well presented, innovative and a challenge and delight to the tastebuds. If you don't like it here, you probably don't know a good thing when you see it.

I would love to see the chefs' creativity channelled to make more vegetarian and plant based dishes, I'm sure they would be delightful.

Absolutely wonderful, delicious food and the best service in town. Very happy diners

Great food, great service. Even gave the birthday boy a special dessert. Nice touch!

The food is nice,especially the desert is nice & decorates beauty!

Our first time at Euro and it definitely exceeded our expectations. The food and service were exceptional and we are looking forward to returning as soon as possible.

Lived up to all expectations! Relaxing atmosphere, delicious food, friendly and efficient service. Definitely recommend the linguine!

Incredible experience at one of Auckland's most amazing restaurants! Made possible with first table.

Great food. Highlight the absolutely fabulous waitress. She appeared to be the only one on duty outside but at no time did we need to get her attention she was attune to when we were ready to place orders for drinks or the next course. Appeared very happy in her role. I hope that she is highly valued by her employer.

Great attentive staff and food was magnificent

Fabulous meal and great service.

Delicious food, wonderful service and impressive wine list. Will be back again.

Thank you. Our food was beautifully cooked and excellent service. Highly recommended and we will visit again.

Lovely food and good service!

Fab restaurant, great food and service.

Our waitress was very good, efficient but not in your face. Food was great!

Euto is a truly first class restaurant

Great anniversary dinner, the lamb and squid was beautiful

Creative delicious dishes. Great service and dining environment. Highly recommend!

This was a lovely interlude on a long weekend. We sat warm as toast in the sun. The food was great, and the service attentive and friendly. We would certainly return.

Service was great! Food was relish! They even went out of their way to make sure our wee bubba was comfortable too :)

Food was unbelievable. Highly recommended. Service was excellent and feijoa cheesecake a must try.

Fabulous first experience with this innovative concept .
I surprised my husband with this romantic lunch date upon his return from 5 weeks away.We were welcomed to Euro Bar with a smile which really set the tone.Our food choices were great ..mine was a creamy Risotto with Pork crackling bits and sliced green Jalapenos..a tast innovation. My husband opted for the tender Holstien Schnitzel lightly crumbed and with anchovy and caper sauce ..again a combination neither of have tried before.We enjoyed our meals very much and so appreciated the attentive and professional service.
First table is a revelation..we are so excited to be trying new restaurant experiences ..how lucky are we.

Lovely lunch with a friend. Great service which was not rushed. We even had desert which was amazing

Great and non pretentious service by Jason! Beautiful ambiance. Good food too. Extremely good deal to book through First Table!

Terrific atmosphere and service.

Food was terrific with the exception of the recommended steak which we all thought was quite chewy. However the steaks were very flavoursome.
The fillet steak was perfect.

Very friendly staff and tasty food!

We had the degustation menu and it was fabulous! The servers were fantastic and made it a great experience.

Our second time dining at Euro as an annual event to celebrate my husband's birthday. We were pleasantly surprised that the waiter picked this up and offered us a complimentary dessert plate with birthday wishes. Just the small touches that make this dining experience pretty special!

Excellent service and food. Wine choice excellent. Great night. Thanks

First time experience with first tables, food and service was very good at Euro. The BBQ prawns are a must, lamb cutlets and Taylor beef were both amazing. Dessert couldn't get pass the feijoa cheese cake.

We had the most amazing dinner last night. Trying a mix of flavours we weren’t sure of because we trusted the experts and we weren’t proved wrong! Delicious. The eye fillet was beautiful. Highly recommend the banana parfait!

Food was great

We had a lovely evening! From the moment we arrived (evening though we were 20 mins early), we were greeted warmly by all staff we encountered - right down to the friendly smiles from the chefs in the kitchen as I headed towards the bathroom - talk about being made to feel at home!
At no point throughout our dining experience were we rushed, or ignored. The waiter's food and beverage knowledge was exceptional, and our food was divine. My husband and I have dined at Euro before, but we also took my mother in law for her birthday this time (first time for her). Although it was a cooler evening out, we chose to be seated on the patio area, which was appropriately warmed with heaters from the roof, and a lovely outdoor setting with replica foliage hanging from above.
Definitely recommend this location - the experience was perfect!

Our first time at Euro was incredibly satisfying. Our expectations were high and the food did not disappoint. What I wasn't expecting quite so much was how friendly and courteous the staff were. They made our group feel relaxed and at ease.

Really great food and service.

Yet another fantastic lunch at Euro. Oysters, whitebait, and schnitzels all utterly superb. Topped off by superb good natured service and fantastic sea view. Euro never disappoints.

Amazing, amazing, amazing! The staff are so friendly and informative and go above and beyond with their service. It was my birthday and they brought out a surprise birthday dessert for me! And the food... to die for! Even the bathrooms are classy. Don’t have a single complaint. Will 100% be back!

Highly recommend this place! Booked a lunch reservation for me and 3 friends and I have to say it really deserves its high ranking on First Table! I've been to many other popular first table restaurants and although their atmosphere was great, the food or service speed was disappointing. My experience here had absolutely no issues with food or service here and I found the dishes to be pretty decent serving sizes. Definitely worth a try :)

Great decor and simple food done beautifully! Had a great 3 course meal. Loved the salmon main and the mousse for dessert. Good portion sizes. Service was excellent.

we had a great time

We had a pretty good experience here, with just a few things that let it down from 5 stars. We shared the kingfish entree which was really nice, maybe a bit too sweet on the sauces and lacking a bit of citrus.They didn't provide separate plates and we used our bread plates which they finally changed. My partners chicken breast looked and tasted delicious so top marks on this one.
My scotch fillet was a very thin piece of meat and a bit disappointing for a restaurant of this calibre at about 15mm thick. Maybe it's just me but i like a good thick steak about 25mm thick. We also had to ask for our side of brocolly that came well after our mains were delivered. Still a nice evening .
