We knew this would be good when we had to wait an hour for a table. As it happens, we got in within 30 minutes.

And we are glad we waited. The food was excellent. As was the service. Try the Hapuka sliders. "Posh fingers" in my book. They will change your life. The skirt steak was excellent, and the potato skins were good too.

Wine on tap? Don't mind if we do.

Best oyster joint in town, the consistency over the years never fails to amaze me. Also make sure you get a slice of you sugar pie, it's absolute bliss.

The most entertaining Auckland restaurant to present New Zealand oysters. The variety of local oysters is without parallel. Served with mixed vinegars in an informal and friendly way. Depot is tge epitome of Brown's famed easy style and truly unfussy service. An emblem of Auckland's current food style. You'll always feel uber welcomed. You'll also adore this exceptional venue's cozy informality. I always go early. You will adore Depot. It's a beaut!

Lovely and lively restaurant next to the sky city. The oysters are astonishing and the seafood squid spaghetti is with strong taste.

Second visit this year, and just as good as the first time. Great, creative menu, great service, great drinks. Not sure how one could do any better.

Cool dining room. Great tasting food. The bone marrow was very controversial. Love it or hate it. I just wanted more toast. It's not romantic, but a good place for a night out without the kids. Not recommend for kids, or if you don't like stools.

You can't best this place. There are a lot of restaurants in Auckland that are fantastic so it's hard to justify coming back to even really good ones but I am a semi regular here. The skirt steak, sashimi, lamb ribs are all amazing and not to be missed

Their oysters were definitely fresh, although a bit pricey.

Waited for around an hour for our group to be seated. Reservation is recommended especially during lunch and dinner time.

Incredible staff and superb food. Beer and wine selection is brilliant. Not cheap but great atmosphere and very popular

Poor breakfast experience
Slow service.
Only 3 options for breakfast? Not full breakfast menu. Only found this out after ordering our coffees after sitting there for 15 mins.
So many other options in this area.

Food is overall a good quality, but some dishes seemed unreasonably priced for the size of the actual serving.

A frequest visitor of this places, food here is great. Sad thing is some staffs are friendly some staffs are not.the queueing system sometimes can be chaotic, I had experienced at least two times of having people jumped the queue and the staff had made mistakes of who were in the queue first.

AMAZING food here! Michelin star like, seriously! We had a meat board (head over heels), duck confit (big plate to share) and asparagus (small plate). We both were hungry and it was more than enough food. We are coming back tomorrow. Definitely a highlight of Auckland for me

Been multiple times and always good food. Have to recommend the oysters and the bone marrow. Arrive ahead of time as you can't book and waits can be up to 45 minutes but well worth it

A good restaurant with friendly service. The roast beef, lamb, fish belly, and oyster are all delicious.

The nicest eatery in Auckland. Not a huge sea food fan but the menu was significant enough to allow us to have several courses without seafood.

Best food I’ve eaten in NZ. World class - on par with London, San Fran or Toronto.

You’ve got to have the sliders!
