Fish Face

Always the first name that comes to mind when searching for fresh seafood in the Mount, Fish Face has got everyone swimming upstream for the good stuff.

Taking pride and place on Maunganui Road, Fish Face is the Mount's go-to when it comes to exquisite seafood, craft beers and boutique wines. And when it comes to their appearance, they're keeping it fresh and minimal with a whitewashed dining room complete with informal dining options, some pretty awesome views over the bay and some rather hilarious fish-themed illustrations. What's more, their outside deck is the perfect spot to while away a summer afternoon. Informal, cool and not without a cheeky sense of fun, Fish Face is an absolute catch!

Leave it to the ocean to define the menu. Dive in at the deep end right at the beginning with some snapper ceviche, seared tuna, and battered snapper sliders, all of which form the perfect introduction to your seafood adventure. There are also arancini balls and spiced jackfruit if you don't want to dive in right away.

So, onto mains where you'll find the most comforting of comforting dishes like seafood pie, seafood chowder and Mediterranean grilled tuna with roast tomatoes and polenta fries. And for a supper that really goes all out, you couldn't do better than the surf & turf which combines the best of sea and land for the most lavish treat. Fish Face is also very proud of its mussels. With garlic, herb and Spanish-style mussels on offer, these ocean jewels are worth the potential mess! You can hardly be blamed for leaving this establishment with a fish face...
