Pravda Café and Grill

We love the food at Pravda so we knew we were going to enjoy our meal but what made this time different was the service we received from the super lovely person who served us that night. It was probably the best service we’ve ever had.

Fabulous experience! The staff were very accomodating. The atmosphere lovely and the food amazing. Definitely will be going back here!

The food was all wonderful and served in very short time. The lovely young lady who served us was extremely attentive and was very knowledgeable about the food and menu, describing the dishes in great detail without once referring to notes - very impressive. She was also able to recommend a wine match which was perfect. We'll certainly return to Pravda!

Delicious as always! And the service was fantastic, very friendly wait staff.

Excellent food and cocktails, great service. Would definitely come back.

Fab Food - Lovely décor and atmosphere. Wait staff very attentive and knowledgeable. Enjoyed the experience and Pravda is up there with places to go

Best first table experience so far. Great well balanced meals. Staff were knowledgeable on wine pairings and made great recommendations. I had the fresh oysters which were delightful. The soup entree which was a mushroom and bacon soup. This was the best mushroom soup i have ever had, followed by the lamb. Lamb was cooked to perfectly and all the flavors complemented each other harmoniously. Overall a faultless evening.

Great experience! Highly recommended!

Both food and service was amazing as always - was pleasantly surprised at the size of the dessert - my partner and I shared the berry creme brulee and it was enormous! Amazing experience all around, cant wait to go back!

Fantstic experience! Beautiful food and the staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely coming back for the pork belly!

Nice evening. Food and service were good.

Fantastic food and service, what more can you say. We had an enjoyable evening.

The food was superb! I had the lamb which was cooked to perfection as was my partner’s pork. Both highly recommended but a word of warning about the desserts- the raspberry creme brûlée is huge! Definitely one to share. Thanks for a fabulous experience First Table and Pravda.

Loved it. Service was great. Food was fantastic

Yummy food, good service. I thought desserts were big portions!

Food was good, staff were excellent!

Good food with lots to choose from and even better service. Our waiter was attentive and knew his stuff. Ambience was nice too.

Food was delicious, fish, pork and steaks were cooked really nicely. Our servers were very friendly. Would come back again.

Beautiful food, fantastic service, the First Table conditions were explained clearly, we had a lovely time.

We had a great dining experience at Pravda last Saturday night. Staff members were friendly, and the food was really nice. Thanks

First time using first table. It was easy and food was awesome ;)

Was my first visit to Pravda and would definitely go back (and spread the word/love to friends and family)

We had a great time at Pravda, dinner was lovely and desert was even better. I would suggest sharing the Sunday desert as it is hug. The lamb is absolutely tasty, the chicken is nice also :-)

Excellent!

Had a great pre-show dinner at Pravda. The staff were friendly and knowledgable and provided great service. The food was delicious with very generous portions served. Sadly, we ran out of time for dessert! The restaurant has a great atmosphere, but we were a little bemused by the 1980's music soundtrack that accompanied our meals. Would happily dine there again!

As we had first table it was lovely for an early meal before attending an event, the food was yummy and service great, very friendly and attentive staff.
Thank you

Pravda put on a really nice evening for us. The food was beautiful and I'd especially like to call out the tremendous service. The staff were impressively knowledgeable on the menu items, and checked in at the perfect times. What a fab evening!

Had a lovely dinner last night at Pravda. The bruschetta was divine, and the Risotto was light and delicate. My mate had the fish of the day which definitely won dish of the night.

Highly recommend the raspberry brulee to follow.

Definitely will be returning again!

We had a really lovely evening at Pravda. The food and service were great, we had enough attention and advice but not intrusive.
I would recommend you go!

What an amazing restaurant! My wife and I had a feast to say the least. Portion sizes are generous, food was exceptional and service was great also. Risotto was outstanding, tempura oysters spot on and the seared tuna was delicious just to name a few. Big ups to first table again for having such a great deal to make it possible for anybody to enjoy these dining experiences!

We had great service and a delicious meal, delivered very efficiently so that we could get on our way to a show at 6:30pm.

Excellent meal and service we thoroughly recommend Pravda. It's about 3 years since we were there great to see they are still of such a high standard.

Incredible service. Tasty food. We rolled out very happy and content. Will come again for sure.

When arriving to the restaurant I was greeted immediately and seated. I was 20mins early for my booking and this was not an issue. I was asked if I wanted my jacket taken and hung up, which I thought was a lovely touch. I was then greeted by a waitress and was given still water as requested. I was then greeted by a waiter who took my drink order as I waited for my partner to arrive. The cocktails looked great and were very tasty. Once my partner arrived, the same waiter asked if we were ready order. At this point, I was little let down. He did not introduce himself, I had to ask him what the Market catch was, which he then clicked his pen to every word. Which was rather annoying as it took my concentration off what he was saying and then he told us the special. The food did not take long to come out and tasted great. My partner has the crispy pork belly, which he said tasted like it had been smoked. Which it doesn’t say on the menu. But still tasted good and was a good size. I had the vegetarian fettuccini, which was a large size and had lots of flavour. We were checked on half way through our meals and once finished we were asked if we wanted desserts. My partner and I shared the chocolate tart, which was delicious. I would recommend it to share as it is quite rich. Overall the experience was good, and I would go back again.

I had been meaning to go to Pravda for a while now, and now that I've been, I won't be meaning to go again... I'll just be going. The great service reminded me how much of an impact it can have on your meal, and the food itself was even better. See you soon!

Place was great! The waitstaff were very friendly and the food was delicious!

great meal, lovely waitress and pravda has a lovely warm atmosphere

Food was great and the service was excellent i will be back

Great food and atmosphere

First visit to Pravda and on a very busy night in Wellington with the All Blacks v France test match on. Usually when we dine using first table the restaurants are empty but not tonight! The place was already busting at the seams which was a good sign! Attentive waiters & the food arrived promptly despite the number of people dining. Very happy with the food, beautiful eye fillet steak at half price is always a good thing. Partner had the seafood risotto which was delicious. Would definitely go back and will look out for this one again. No room for a dessert unfortunately which sounded yum. Fed and watered happily in plenty of time to head off to the big game

Great service, atmosphere, menu and awesome food

We had limited time. Food was prompt and service was great

The service was fantastic, drinks were great. The steak was pretty average (Wakanui Scotch), was expecting more from it and didn’t satisfy my need for a good steak. Definitely worth a shot

Excellent service and delicious food. Waiter gave perfect recommendations. Great dining experience!

Great food. Amazing Lamb rump. Was super tender.
Chicken was nice too

Excellent food and service. Would definitely come back again.

Enjoyable food, great service.

Had a great experience at Pravda! Would definitely return. Food is delicious and service was excellent!

I must say last night was one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. The staff at Pravda noticed on my booking that I worked for Beef + Lamb and brought out each cut and carefully explained its origin, the marbling and the ideal way to have it depending on the taste. We were amazed at the level of customer service we received and to top it all off, the food was incredible! Will definitely be going back there ASAP. Thanks Pravda and the First Table Team

Absolutely loved our whole dining experience - ambience, service , drinks and food. I liked how all the staff pitched in to ensure a prompt service for customers - our assigned waiter was excellent, attentive in a non-intrusive way helpful with information about the menu and kept us updated on how far away our main meal was. We ordered a shared appetizer (squid), market fish and taupo eye fillet. Each dish was beautifully presented, extremely tasty and my steak (medium well) was cooked to perfection. We'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to others.
