Dux Dine

We dined using the first table deal, and it was great! Our table was in a cozy spot near the fire, the service was great, and the portion sizes were larger than we expected- both of us had to take some home!

A friendly greeting, quick attention, happy hour drinks & a great menu began a pleasant evening. First Table dinner. The bread platter simply delicious & both mains very good to complete a good evening. . Want to return to try more!

Had an excellent meal at Dux Dine.
Starters of cauliflower bites, oysters and calamari and oysters were divine as was the main of pea and haloumi fritters, mushroom Wellington and seafood chowder. The service was excellent and the happy hour was also a bonus. Will definitely be returning

Had a great and relaxing lunch at dux dine. Food is good. Service was excellent and staff very friendly. Will definitely recommend dux dine to my friends.

Great surroundings, yummy food and friendly helpful staff!! We will be back

Seafood is always so fresh here and decent sized portions. Staff are friendly and have good menu knowledge.

We loved the food, great service!

Amazing as always :)

Great food and atmosphere. Lovely evening with friends. Would recommend with out hesitation

This is a really nice restaurant with such a cozy ambience. The main courses we ordered are all very delicious. Service is very nice as well. We were all very happy for having dinner here. Will be back again.

Definitely worth it. A very nice looking young man showed us to our table and ensured we were comfortable. The food was outstanding. A great dining experience.

One of my top restaurants in Christchurch, never disappoints. Went for a birthday lunch with a friend and we both enjoyed the food and ambience and our child free time ;-) will be back

Best Caesar salad in town. Great service overall and easy parking at the door. Can’t beat Dux Dine

Warm and quiet, which is just what we needed on a cold night. The food and service were excellent!! Definitely return!!

Wonderful atmosphere perfect for an intimate dinner, delicious food and very attentive staff made for a cosy evening.

Always impressed me as usual, service is very warm and humble.

Really great staff and good location. Very popular spot

Absolutely lovely lunch, with a huge selection as the breakfast, brunch and lunch menu were all available. We all enjoyed our meals, which were substantial and using high-quality ingredients. The décor is cool - quirky, yet elegant. It was a very nice touch to get a complimentary glass of bubbles for the birthday girl. Would highly recommend Dux Dine, and I want to go back again!

Very nice food and great service

Highly recommend

Food was absolutely delicious, size of the meals were uncommonly big and the sauce paired with the yellow tuna steak crowned the dish superbly. Definitely bang for your bucks! Our waiter was very assiduous, communicative and charismatic. Lovely warm environment with speedy service and brisk delivery. Will certainly be back with friends and family!

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and tasty food.

Warm welcome, spacious seating, prompt friendly service with great personality, delicious teas followed by the BEST salmon Benedict in Christchurch!! We've tried many! Real slab of salmon on fresh bread, bottom popping portion sizes, but you crave every bite! Fantastic first experience! And I say first, as we will be back!

Superb meal and service. Wonderfully warm on a cold night. Will return again and again.

Always delicious and amazing value for money!! Also very gluten free friendly

Always a great place for those who are Vegetarian as many of the dishes are vegetarian (with fish dishes as well).
My friends and I enjoyed dining here at Dux Dine and will definitely come again. Good food and good service!

We were lucky enough to have oysters on an additional menu. Not a fan of slimey chewy sea water I do love a fried oyster and these were on the menu. I would say that they were nice and I found the batter to be crispy but also oil soaked especially underneath. My husband loved his chowder which was crammed full of fish and seafood and tasted great. Mains were good, maybe a bit too much salt with the lentils under my fish. The waiter never came to ask if we wished to order anything of the drinks menu, which was actually fine as we weren't going that night anyway. All up we couldn't fit in dessert and would dine here again despite criticisms :-).

Beautiful atmosphere, subtlety lit, decor and cosy gas fires.
I ordered groper and was glad I wasn’t paying full price - I found the lentils bland and under cooked but I didn’t raise it with the restaurant so have no reason to be raising it now. My friends loved their food - salmon pizza, quinoa/haloumi salad and kids pizza. Arancini balls yum but not strong on pumpkin or kumara flavours. I sent my chocolate sticky pudding back as it was dry and disappointingly like a plain chocolate sponge with warm sauce. They agreed and removed it from the bill. The others loved the lime tart and cheesecake. Wait staff were friendly, professional and helpful. Will be heading there again via First Table to try some of the other delicious sounding items.

Awesome food, great experience. Lovely atmosphere and great service.

Seafood chowder has a lovely consistency and balance of ingredients in it.
Loved the smoked salmon pizza and salmon main dish.
Sago dessert would taste better had the pearls been rinsed under cold running tap water and served with coconut milk and palm sugar separately.
Superb friendly and helpful staff.

First class service, excellent food, lovely ambience. Plus, we didn't feel hurried out, or given less attention than full paying customers. Great concept; will definitely do it again.

Beautiful place..great service...never had a bad meal there ever

Menu was extensive and everything sounded so good. Our meals were delicious, very generous serving sizes, waiter was lovely and the restaurant its self was so nice to be in. Really beautiful restored villa. Will definitely be coming back!!

Excellent service by all their team, great food too!
We will be back (again)

After 3 full on days of training the warm and welcoming atmosphere of Dux Dine was just what we needed. Soaking in the warmth of the fire it was a hard choice between so many delicious menu options - even with various dietary needs between us. The staff were so welcoming and friendly, made us feel right at home. Only wish I'd had some room left for some dessert as it looked divine! Will definitely be back!

Great food

While everyone enjoyed their entrees the same cannot be said for the mains. The fish was very strong smelling but was tasteless. Not up to Dux Dines usual standard at all.

Great atmosphere & food in lovely surroundings

Very busy place but there wasn't too much of a wait for food, which impressed me. My dessert was delicious.

Great food, fresh and tasty. Service is pretty average.

Enjoyed the lovely warm room on a chilly day. Food very nice (beer battered fish & pumpkin and feta balls). Found the soup bland as if they put left over veggies in it. Was leek, kumara, parsnip. No, wouldn't recommend. Otherwise, a lovely outing at Dux Dine

A wonderful experience with great food and service. Lovely place to be with it's gas fires and cosy warmth on a cold night
.

Very nice meal and good service. Friendly staff.

As a family of four we enjoyed a lovely meal with excellent surroundings and very helpful staff

Really yummy food. Mains and desserts were a good size. For entree we got the breads and dip... only recommendation would be to have more bread as there was a lot more dip to bread ratio :) Would definitely dine here again

Congratulations Dux Dine on a first class meal. From the very friendly staff who were most helpful explaining fully about the various options on the menu to the food itself, it was the best ever. I had the salmon and the presentation was exceedingly attractive and absolutely delicious. The others in the group were equally impressed and we vowed to return.

Fabulous as always and great to see the increased parking at the back.

It was good food and service

Excellent food and service.

Always great at the Dux and first table is a great idea. We'll be back for sure.
