Deco Eatery

It is obvious that staff are well trained and focused on giving customers a pleasant experience. We were served by various staff and all gave us excellent service. Food arrived in good time and was not only well presented, delicious as well. Will definitely return to sample the rest of the menu. Well done to the management team and staff

Lovely cozy cafe for brunch. The atmosphere was warm and relaxing, the chicken and waffles were delicious, and the hot chocolate was really good too. Definitely a place I’d come back to!

Had dinner here last night. The food was fantastic. Great presentation and packed with flavor. Tried a few of their signature cocktails and they were terrific. Atmosphere was great with good lighting, great music in the background, and the staff was welcoming and accommodating. Highly recommend Deco and would most definitely come back!

A great menu of Middle Eastern and Kiwi classics. The kid's menu is great value with a BIG cheeseburger, large serving of delicious fries and choice of drinks plus activity pack. I got the eggs bene with salmon. Excellent hollandaise and a fab flat white. The USP for this place is the enclosed terrace overlooking native bush with beautiful natural light in which to read, sketch, peruse the newspaper or just chat with friends.

I have a bit of a crush on this spot. I’ll get to the food in a moment but the first thing you notice is the stunning location. Deco has put serious consideration into the decor. It’s stunningly executed and gives off such a cozy, comfy vibe while also transporting you to the medi. The presentation of meals and drinks takes the experience to another level. I’ve eaten here twice and both times the flavour, texture and execution hit the mark. The menu has a large range of options mostly leading in the Turkish, Mediterranean vibes however there’s also some cafe classics to suit every need. Love this spot and need to find more excuses to pop in.

I've visited many times, and it is always my first choice for catching up with friends. Whether for a simple coffee or a full breakfast, Deco Eatery never disappoints. The staff are welcoming and the food is consistently delicious!

We came in just 5 minutes before the kitchen closed and even placed the order through the phone call as we were arriving super late but the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming — they didn’t rush us at all and provided excellent service. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and full of flavour. Highly recommend this place for great hospitality and tasty food!

Grabbed breakfast here on New Year’s Day! 🥂 The Eggs Benedict and sides were absolutely delicious. Despite the holiday surcharge, the food was genuinely worth it. Lovely ambience, warm atmosphere, and great service throughout. Would definitely recommend checking it out!

Cute place, friendly people. And very fast! Rustic Benedict was amazing! I highly recommend! Parking can be a challenge but worth hunting for.

Deco Eatery is Titirangi's new addition. It's in the historic Lopdell House right on the edge of the township. The interior has been designed beautifully - light and airy with lots of pale wooden furniture and beautiful patterned tiles (see picture and you'll see what I mean). Sadly though, it's let down by the details. Plastic wrapping remains on pot plants and the menus are cheap paper numbers - mine had a big coffee stain in the middle. I reckon if you going to put that much effort into creating a beautiful (and no doubt expensive) space the least you can do is design menus to match. However, none of this would have bothered me had the food been amazing, but alas my menemen lacked flavour and substance. The Turkish scrambled eggs arrived in a cast-iron dish but were underwhelming. There was hardly any egg involved and the tomato sauce was thin and dull. Even the Turkish bread served to mop up the sauce was dry (and sans butter). The service is also still finding it feet. We asked a staff member what tomino was and she went off to ask a colleague. "Cheese made w cows milk" she explained when she came back. "And how is it served?" we asked wanting to know if it was fried like haloumi, crumbled in a salad etc. Off she went again. "As a wedge on the plate." Totally understand that menus can be difficult to learn but when there's only one ingredient that might stump a few people, you should probably find out what it is and how it's served. Still, it's early days at Deco and I am happy to put our lackluster experience down to teething problems. They've really done such an incredible job with the space and I'd happily head back in a couple of months to try their dinner menu.

Though I am a local, this was the first chance at trying Deco Eatery, the first real, 'fine dining' restaurant in the village. Though I had heard mixed reviews of the place I was excited to try this Turkish inspired eatery that has been established below the iconic Lopdell House. First impression, the place was LOUD. It was busy and full of people and the acoustics did not do the restaurant any favors. We were at a large table, but it was difficult to even have a conversation with the person opposite us. Secondly, I have to agree with previous reviewers that commented on the cheap looking menus. Certainly did not fit with the decor or the very well presented and rather pricey food. However with the bad comes the good. Our server was friendly and helpful, the Turkish accents on water jugs, tea pots and cushions were tasteful and ecclectic (in a good way) and most importantly, the food was delicious. My party selected from a number of mains on the menu with the lamb salad and salmon were stand out favourites. I had the stuffed capsicum with lamb, and though I wasn't sure about the rather strong cinnamon flavor as part of the seasoning, it grew me and I enjoyed it overall. They also had a very good wine list and cocktail list to chose from, another bonus. All in all, I can see why this latest Titirangi restaurant is always so busy during the weekend, and it is certainly somewhere I would consider coming back to. The noise was a bit of a problem, and so likely would not return with a large party again, but am interested to try more of the dishes on their menu, including the lamb rack and the beef cheeks. Defiantly a must try.

My family and I ate at Deco after my graduation on Monday. It was my first time eating at Deco, even though I'm a local, and I was pleasantly surprised. We were a big group and ordered a big table in the back of the beautifully decorated restaurant. Even though it was a Monday night in Titirangi, the restaurant was full and loud. We had to raise our voices to be heard which was OK as we were a jovial bunch, but I could see how this could become tiresome. The service was brilliant from the start. The staff were attentive (placing my bouquet into a pitcher of water for me), friendly and seemed genuinely interested in my graduation, which was such a special touch. For starters we ordered the scallops (divine), dips with bread to share (again, sublime) and mushrooms, which we devoured hungrily. We took more time with our mains and weren't disappointed. The portions were large, the food delicious and pretty much faultless. I had the fish of the day which was cooked to perfection and so very tender. The prices were a bit dear, but they only added to the luxury of Deco. My family and I had a lovely celebration and we'll definitely be back!

Beautiful views from the top of the hill at Titirangi; good food and THE best scones I have ever eaten. Seriously. Porcini mushroom scones. THE best. And I'm British, my people live on scones ("sk'owns") and cups of tea.

Love it - go often - great coffee- yummy food- nice service - the actual building is superb - a treat to sit in !

Had a coffee here in the afternoon... They make great coffee. Wonderful atmosphere and very clever renovation. Had the falafel and humus.. This was not ordinarily in any way and beautifully presented very fresh and the tomato salsa was a great touch .... Wonderful mint flavours Would recommend

We have just left, having been seated then ignored for ten minutes. We're down the road, have just purchased four meals and are enjoying the warm reception and great service at stripe. Would not return to Deco. The one star is only as we were obliged to enter a rating before posting.

Yum food and coffee, amazing decor, reserve for big groups as it is busy. Food is served fast. We go regularly.

always love going to this place! great authentic food and a great wine list. I only have one complaint which is when i went there last with a group of friends they had taken off the mezze platter which was a great dish to share with friends over a few wines! when i asked the waitress about this , she said they only served the platter in the morning, huh? wouldnt it make more sense to have a sharing platter on summer afternoons when everyone is relaxing with a wine... was just a bit annoying as we all had lunch before and were just looking for something to pick at.

We live locally and have been a few times. The quality is very good , but we have noticed the portion sizes have reduced considerably in the last few months. They started off generous and are now a bit smallish in my opinion. I still recommend it, but you need to order a couple of sides to make it a meal. The calamari starter is superb.

I'm a local and this is up the road from me! It has great views of the Manukau harbour, I've eaten there a few times and the menu is really nice for breakfast brunch and dinner, they have friendly staff working their and their coffee's are really good, it's a good place for meeting people. It's very popular during the week and in the evenings and it gets busy in the weekends it's also a good spot before going or coming back from the west coast beaches.

Have had several breakfasts and lunches here and have never ever had a reason to complain until now. It's not even food related but a coffee one...as we were finishing our lunch I ordered two coffees to go...one flat white and the other a trim flat white. I watched the barista pour milk from a blue top into the jug and proceeded to heat it. I was expecting him to get the trim milk out but he didn't! He then proceeded to make both coffees from the one jug and then had the cheek to look me in the eye and say trim and normal...I looked him in the eye and he didn't even blink! I didn't want to cause a fuss and took the coffee but will not be returning to this establishment. Disappointed. For the food 4 stars...for the coffee 4...for the barista...0

Deco was on my list of places to visit. It was nothing less than spectacular but what's more it has actually surprised me! The foundations of Deco's food are based on Mediterranean ingredients and cooking and that's my favourite! We are talking hummus, tzajiki, babaganush, olives, warm Turkish bread and pure olive oil! Pardon spelling. The wine was extremely aromatic and tasty. The mezzo dish was divine and served on the biggest wooden board I have ever seen in the restaurant, to the point we moved tables because of the size of my dish haha!!! Prices are like at any good restaurant nowadays whilst meals are slightly bigger than average tiny portions you get served in town. Seating spaces are nicely spread out, lovely private tables by the windows are just gorgeous!!! Serving personnel is friendly and not in your face. Kitchen set up is something I couldn't take my eyes off. Tried Tiramisu, fluffy scrumptious coffee based pudding served in a beautiful old fashioned jar was a delight and big enough to share! Deco is the place I can't wait to go back, I am desperate to try calamari as I have heard those are exceptional!

We recently moved and have been hunting for a good local, somewhere to kick back and enjoy some good food and a few beers after a hard week at work - sadly I don't think we have found it at Deco. Physically the place delivers. Coffee is roasted on site, real thought has been put into the layout of the facilities and the fit-out has been finished to a high standard. It is a restaurant/cafe/bar and manages to pull off the difficult task of being able to serve as all three at once. The drinks menu is varied and extensive, the atmosphere is buzzing and the bar staff attentively serve proper pints of delicious beer. So far so good. Food-wise we dabbled in the Mezze selection - not in the mood to dine but hankering after something to snack on while sinking a few cold hard-earned beers. We ordered bruschetta and calamari. The food arrived promptly and was passable. The bruschetta was served with a slice of delightfully tangy halloumi but there was no way to save the dish from the overwhelming sourness of the tomatoes. The salsa contained large chunks of carelessly chopped raw onion and there was too much of it on the bread. The calamari was cooked in a pan and came with a knockout aioli - wipe the plate good - but sadly the calamari tasted bitter. The oil it was cooked in either caught fire or was burnt somehow leaving a claggy taste in the mouth. Later we were approached by a staff member who stood over us and told us we had to 'finish your drinks in 30 seconds and leave'. The staff member then stood and waited as we hurriedly tried to drink up and leave. Other than being told upon service that our final beer was last drinks (by the incredibly efficient and charming bar man) we were not given any prompts that the bar was closing. I have worked in many bars and understand that people want the punters to go home when time is called. I have no problem with drinking up and going home, but giving a customer a few minutes to gather themselves is standard customer service. Standing over people demanding they leave with no real prior warning that the bar is closing is going too far. And assuming your customers are drunk and you can treat them any way you like just because they are in your bar at closing time is also a mistake. The search for the local continues

Was very busy, but the staff were fantastic along with the food. Would highly recommend going there and I cannot wait to go again.

I've had several meals at Deco. It's arguably the most attractive venue in Titirangi. While the food is of an acceptable standard, the service is inevitably poor. Without fail, we've had something go wrong with our order, usually items forgotten. My biggest gripe is that the wait staff seem poorly trained and have little or no discretion when it comes to putting things right. Management seems to hide away to avoid complaints and there is just no sense of pride on anything they do. There are better places to eat on the West.
