We were a table of 3. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and the service was great. We would highly recommend and can't wait to come back

This was a nice place to eat, we had a lovely view and almost forgot we were in the centre of town! The food was good and the service was excellent, the waitresses were super attentive!

We had a really, really lovely meal. Thanks so much for a great experience!

Great time with my family. Good food and excellent service.

Beautiful food in gorgeous surroundings

Creative dishes. Wonderful services.
Highly recommend

Enjoyed the food and the service was really great.

Staff were lovely and friendly. Went out of their way to make my dad's birthday special. They bought out his dessert with extra special 'happy birthday' around the plate We enjoyed the food and the selection of drinks was outstanding. The whole evening was wonderful - thank you iBistro

Pleasantly surprised with our visit to i Bistro.
Meal was very nice and great value. Had to go find our own table and pour own water, so service could be improved, but in saying that, all were friendly and helpful with menu options. Will definitely return.

A lovely place to dine. The steak and the lamb were excellent, perfectly cooked. The staff were very attentive and made sure we were looked after. Will definitely be back!

Service was great , food was very good. Would recommend and will go back.

Very enjoyable evening, we had three courses, all food was served in a timely manner, delicious and an appropriate serving size. Decor was modern and view onto the river and bridge made for a nice setting. The balcony would be a lovely place to sit on a warm evening or summers day. The staff were friendly and attentive but not intrusive. Would dine here again.

Wonderful restaurant with excellent food and service. Thank you for a great evening

The food was great and the service staff were very attentaive and smiling which was great very friendly. Food came quickly no waiting around and very tasty. Can fault anything will go again

Our anniversary dining experience was lovely!! The staff we very friendly and prompt with orders. Entrees were delicious and presentation was fabulous!! Range on mains menu was quite interesting and different to the standard and was very tasty. Will definitively be popping by again!

This was our first booking with First Table and it was was a very enjoyable experience , the food was great and the service was friendly and attentive.
We had entrees of the scallops and prawn dishes , both were good with the scallops winning out , I had the seared steak and my wife had the lamb and they were great . Overall it was a very enjoyable meal , great ambiance and location

Lovely young staff. Nice views. Food pretty good.

We appreciated the creative dishes offered. We had a pea n wisabi rissoto with prawns which was creamy and flavourful at first but then became a little sickly after the first few of tastes. The same for the scollops but the beef was nice just a little over cooked. I really liked the pasta dish with mushrooms and my husband enjoyed his steak. Overall it was tasty.

Had a lovely evening with two other friends two of the meals were beautiful, however one of my friends ordered the pork dish and it tasted horrible-should let the restaurant know that but we didn't

Right from the start it was a great experience. From booking dinner with first table to arriving at the restaurant, and being seated right away and then ordering our meals. We didn't wait for our food long either. The entree was amazing! Chargrilled chicken salad with macadamia nuts. Absolutely melt in your mouth! Our mains were cooked to perfection and desert! The brulee was to die for. Absolutely and utterly delicious. Great food, great service, great family atmosphere and a rather nice location. Will be back in summer. Can't fault anything. Best experience this year. Well done Ibistro!

Really lovely experience dining out with my partner and my eldest son, Dined on the balcony overlooking the river and under the heater, very nice surprise on a winter's evening! Food was great, each had 3 courses and all but 1 dessert hit the mark, and that was because it was far too rich. Waitress Bronwyn was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Definitely we will be back!

This is the second time we have dined at iBistro and the food was good as usual. I had a dessert serving of Duck Island ice-cream which was huge, three scoops! The food is always well presented and tasty and the atmosphere warm and welcoming.

Food was amazing!

Slow and unattentive service, took 50 minutes to receive meal after ordered. Food cold and over cooked. Very disappointed.

Definitely highly recommend ibistro!

Hubby & I wanted a nice quick selection of entrees to start our night out and everything was spot on. The service, the food and the location.

We would return in a heart beat and will be telling all our friends and family too.

Thankyou!

I cant fault this. First time use first table deal was sooo good.
We had a good time that night. 2 couples dinner date. Celebrating friendships. Food...steak cooked to perfection. Scallop as an entree was to die for. Apple fritter for dessert yuuuuum.
Will definitely come back.
Reece our waiter for that night was attentive,, very hospitable.

An interesting menu with well seasoned delicious food nicely presented. A casual and enjoyable dining experience.

Excellent food and wonderful value. We have been back again!

Very lovely restaurant had an amazing time and the food was absolutely amazing!!!

Great food, good service.

Food and service was great. small problem with First Table discount but this was sorted very promptly by onsite manager. Will certainly go back.

The staff were awesome and so lovely. The venue was nice and the food was so good. Thank you so much

Fabulous meal great place to dine.

Friendly staff, we sat out side on balcony overlooking the river and bridge with a heater above us. Great atmosphere! But the food was A M A Z I N G! Pleasantly surprised at the subtleties of flavour in the sauces. Will definitely be returning!

Beautiful food, great service will certainly come again

Wow! Food was absolutely delicious! As well as the desserts! The service was amazing. Our waitress provided prompt service. Gave us approx times of when our food would be ready. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone and no doubt we will be back again.
One happy whanau here

Had a really good meal and were also impressed with the staff. Looking forward to returning and taking friends.

Good food, good setting and good service.

Thanks ‘First Table’! Great opportunity to try a great restaurant. Awesome atmosphere out on veranda table, wonderful service & food was perfect! Will definitely dine there again

As always, excellent service from Rhys and team and delicious food with yummy choices. First Table is well worthwhile and great to have a view of the river.

A lovely place to eat outside by the river (although the occasional train is noisy). It was casual and friendly and the scallops, pork belly and lamb shanks were superb. Fairly small wine list, but some excellent wines on it as well as house wines. A very enjoyable meal.

Dinner out as a family for a birthday. Lamb shanks good, pork belly good, nice portions . Enjoyable evening was had by all.

Was a bizarre experience, atmosphere 2/5, food 5/5. When we walked in it is very obvious it is a hotel restaurant (we didn't realise this until after we booked) the reception is about 2m from the "dining room". It kind of made the restaurant feel cheap and awkward. The atmosphere wasn't good, they were trying to go for fine dining but were playing music from ZM. My partner and I were pretty close to leaving but as we had paid the $10 we didn't want to lose our money. However, we ordered and the food came promptly. The food was pretty darn good, my partner had the pork belly and I had the steak. I would recommend the food. We both felt like the prices werehigh for what it was, we felt it would only be justified if the atmosphere was better and that it is worth closer to $20-25. Bottom line - the atmosphere is average, we couldn't wait to leave but the food is very good

The food and the service were just exceptional. We will definitely dine here again.
