About

This bar and Pania of the Reef Statue can be both really attractive for tourists. Carpe diem – French and New Zealand cuisines wait for you. Tasting nicely cooked lamb, steaks and bacon is what most visitors advise. It's nice to taste good wine. Many people note that the staff is courteous at Exchange Brasserie. Fast service is something clients like here. Based on the guests' feedback on Google, this place deserved 4.

Had a beautiful meal here,food was really well presented and cooked to perfection. I dine out a lot and this was up there with the best. The service was great got lots of attention to get and orders and check to see if the meals were ok. And when we were leaving the matre dee asked us again if our meals were ok and said he would go and pass our comments onto the chef. Very impressed Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–60 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We were looking forward to eating there. The online comments on TripAdvisor and Google motivated us. Seeing the pictures we really wanted to come and taste the food (especially the fish). When we arrived we had what seemed like a reduced menu (not the one we saw on the Internet) with only a couple of items to choose from. Not too far from what you can get in some hotels with the room service when the kitchen is closed. We had a piece of meat ordered rare which came closer to well done, and a chicken curry which was bland, the sauce was no better than what you find in a supermarket without any cooks work and reheated. The prices and experience were not at all aligned. I would expect to have this quality of food when going to an establishment that doesn't show any claim and certainly not for this price. The waiters were friendly and knew how to smile, this was a positive point, even though they seemed a bit lost and overwhelmed with only a few tables, they weren't proactive. I hope this helps as constructive criticism. Service Dine in Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3

Surprisingly, I enjoyed my meal here. The Fish was cooked to perfection, as was the rib eye steak. My side of Mash was exquisite, I’m aiming to make all these myself. The best part was the desserts, my partner, who normally doesn’t eat desserts, raved about his Lemon Tart and loved my Tropical Verrine. The only disappointment was our waiter, he was lovely, but I think he forgot about us after entrees came out. What was nice to see was the chef coming out with any late dishes, apologising and getting back to his kitchen. We came back on our last day for Breakfast, although 5 minutes away from finishing serving breakfast, the staff seated us and the kitchen baked us cinnamon rolls, danishes and croissants- just amazing! I would definitely recommend eating here.

Exceptional evening had at Curve the food delicious & beautifully presented and staff a true “Team” ; there to truly look after you. The Sous Chef even came out to thank us n chat over our compliments which was really lovely. We mingled with three other tables & they too were very impressed. Thku Daniel for the stunning Martini! So enlightening to see hospitality at its best! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner

Between us we had 4 different meals and 2 desserts and everything was excellent. The chef really knows how to produce perfectly cooked and served food and the waiting staff were friendly, efficient and we all had a fantastic time. Thank you.

What a fantastic meal, enjoyed a few drinks on my own. Nice and quiet, both staff working Wed night (22 Jun 22) were fantastic and made the experience all the better. Try the strawberry cheesecake, it's to die for.

We’ve been struggling to find a good place to eat breakfast the past week, with terrible places around the area - seriously, you’d think a fancy place like Mister D would know how to fry an egg... but see my other review for them. This one will be on our saved list. Normally we’d avoid hotel restaurants as they’d be overpriced etc but this one definitely has the best scrambled eggs in Napier. Prices are the same if not slightly cheaper than the cafes nearby! Scrambled eggs perfectly cooked! Not oily, not runny, not overcooked. 2 stars extra just for that. Staff very friendly and accommodate dietary needs - instead of bacon we managed to get sausages. Coffee - make sure to ask for extra hot. Short black is very good, not bitter. Flat white - needs to be hotter. Unfortunately no pictures as we were too hungry and enjoyed the food too much :)

Food was very average. The battered fish was tasteless, very disappointed - should've been a kids meal. Desserts tasted pre-made, again avereage. Wouldn't recommend for fine dining.
