The Curve Restaurant and Bar

Housed in the Scenic Hotel Te Pania in Napier and serving fresh NZ cuisine alongside stunning panoramic views, this restaurant has always been ahead of the curve.

A juicy spritz of summer all year round, The Curve Restaurant and Bar is keeping things upbeat and optimistic, even throughout the colder months. They’re gracing the central courtyard with zesty green and orange furniture, promising shade and sunshine under the tropical palm trees. Inside, it’s bright and modern with glass walls, minimal adornments and a lively bistro that is reminiscent of contemporary Europe.

The food is equally as uplifting and showcases delicacies from Hawkes Bay. Up first is regional lamb short loin with root vegetables and mushroom arancini, market fish alongside steak fries and salad, and pork fillet from Freedom Farm.

Put simply, there’s plenty of deliciousness from NZ to sink your teeth into. And if that wasn’t enough, a slice of Hawkes Bay apple cake or a coconut and mango panna cotta should see that curve come full circle.
