Best Asian Restaurants
- 126Renkon Express - PonsonbyPonsonbyAwesome cheap & consistent Japanese meals. Good quality & loads of options for a quick meal.
- 28Empress Garden RestaurantHerne BayA hidden gem of Chinese Restaurants. Been in Herne Bay for over 20 years and delivers a great range of Chinese dishes - fantastic duck banquets. A must for big groups.
- 364Canton CafeKingslandGreat vibe, and variety of quality Cantonese style dishes.
- 45This is my favourite yum cha in Auckland! Great variety of food but I particularly love their amazing dumplings. If you're heading there you must try Prawn & Coriander or Prawn & Watercress. I recommend booking too as this place is always busy!
- 520The Mercury Plaza Food CourtAuckland CentralA great mix of Asian options here, but the Chinese is fab. Highly recommend the BBQ pork wonton soup here. Good quality and delicious broth.
