Ora Bistro Restaurant 16 Lakewood Court, Manukau City Centre, Auckland 2104

"The food and the people were great. The desert Guava cheese cake was outstanding. The only comment we had was the bisque for the Market fish could have been a bit more. It was relatively less compared to the portion of the plate."

"Started with pizza and shoestring chips, pizza was a bit of a let down due to the budget base, so for $26 I thought I'd of gotten something a bit flasher. Chips were delicious. Prawn linguine was amazing. Market fish was good. Pork belly for $40 with no crackle and it kind of seemed reheated with a layer of hard to chew meat on the bottom and yuk looking fat in it. Roasted potatoes were average. Lovely place, no parking it seems so big walk to find something on the road."

"Great food and service! I tried both breakfast buffet and lunch. They ran out of pancakes but there were a lot of other selections. I tried their oysters and they were fresh, clean and delicious."

"Service was amazingly attentive. Pina colada was delicious. Ordered the Korean skewers for entree. Lovely, however could have added tad more kimchi. For main, we ordered the cauliflower steak and wagyu beef cheeseburger. My best friend thought the cauliflower steak was amazing, personally thought it was average. The wagyu beef cheeseburger was Tasty but surprisingly dry. Dessert was refreshing. quite expensive but great experience. Great ambience also."

"Restaurant in the Sebel Hotel, can't believe I haven't been here before - v close to home. Tables are quite close, its not a large space. We all enjoyed our meals, they were a bit slow in coming which we didn't care about. Lamb rump, mushrooms, Korean chicken, creme brulee & a chocolate mousse type dessert. The only 2 things I'd add is that there wasn't much taste on the mushrooms and the biscotti was soft when it should be hard. But overall a lovely meal & I'll go back."
