Kisa

Hands down, the food at Kisa is delicious. Every dish hit the spot—flavorful, fresh, and perfectly executed. I’m not usually a bread person, but wow, the bread here was next level—tasty, warm, and honestly, I’d go back just for that. The service was super quick, which is always a win, and the prices were fair for the quality. Highly recommend if you're in Wellington!

The food is really great. Great flavour and texture. Had the lamb and its so delicious. The pita and spread is also amazing. The brussel sprout is crispy and flavourful. The tahr is juicy and tasty. Overall great food. Also had a wine and its pretty good. Place a little bit cramped though.

Had a fantastic time at Kisa the other night! Really impressed by how kind & professional all the staff were. Highlights were the goat mince flat bread and the lemon tart. The dishes came out in appropriate order, and we waited no time at all for the first course. Wish the date pudding came with caramel sauce as it was a bit dry but overall an amazing experience.

The atmosphere was lovely and the drinks, both wine and cocktails, were excellent. We got dips and pita bread to start with, and then proceeded to share a few of their Mezze. All the food was new and unique, you can’t find another menu like this in Wellington. I would strongly recommend to share all the food you get (as is their concept), especially because some of the dishes can be a bit one-note so it’s nice to have a few different flavour to cleanse your palate. Would come back!

We visited Kisa on a busy Saturday night, without a booking. The service was fantastic, as was the food. Everything was full of flavour, and reasonably priced. The Brussel sprouts and lamb shoulder were cooked perfectly. In fact eveything was delicious. 100% recommend!!

An excellent dining experience. Every savoury dish was perfectly cooked and bursting with flavour. The pita was warm and fluffy, pairing perfectly with the hummus and chickpea dip. The mozzarella boreks were excellent; lightly crispy with the right amount of bite. The tahr kebabs had a unique gamey flavour. The highlight of the meal was the fried Brussels sprouts, which were deliciously caramelised and seasoned. The chocolate labneh cheesecake was the only dish that I could have done without. The olive oil flavour was overpowering, and the texture was too dense. Service was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere is modern and relaxed. All in all, an excellent meal.

Oh, what a beauty!😍This was my first time trying a middle eastern inspired cuisine and just cannot explain how quickly we devoured on it!❤️🤤 A fine dine place with beautiful ambiance, delicious food and great ambience, all in one place if you would want to try a different cuisine from the regular ones!💯We went in a group of 4 and went a little overboard with ordering 🤣

One of the best restaurants in Wellington. We had Taramasalata for starters and it was 10/10. Wapiti kebabs were amazing. Cocktails and mocktails were great too. Service was great. Highly recommended

Best meal I've had in New Zealand! Every dish we had was so delicious!! This place is cozy and really cute. The staff was really nice. We started out with the muhammara, which is a bit spicy, but really good. The pita bread was yummy. We split the lamb shoulder, which was superb! For dessert, we split the pumpkin ice cream sandwich. Man, was that the best! I can't rave about this place enough - one of the best restaurants in the world!!

WOW! I found this on a "top places to dine in Wellington" article and it did not lead us astray. We were worried about getting a seat here since it seemed so popular for dinner, but we went early and snagged a bar spot at the chef's table - right in front of the kitchen glass. Honestly, this is the best spot in the house! The menu had us drooling from the start - we ended up asking our waitress for some recommendations, and she didn't lead us astray. For dips and spreads, we got the lor cheese and the hummus - both incredible. I LOVE that they have gluten free flatbread available! And it was to die for. For mezze, we shared the lamb kebab and smacked cucumber. The kebab was a small portion but so well seasoned and the best lamb we had on our trip. The cucumber had a delicious punch and was the perfect pairing. Everything we ate here was unreal - and our waitress' service really helped us navigate the menu.

Had a great dinner on Friday night with a group. We had made a reservations and were seated immediately. Our server was quite attentive and took our food and drink orders in a timely fashion. He was also really helpful in recommending the right volume of food to order for our group, as well as drink pairings. For five adults, we ordered three dips (with pita), 3 small plates, and two large plates. It felt like the right amount, we might've been able to order one fewer small plate. The dips were all super tasty and the pita was really hot and fresh. The small plates were also great, the fried brussels sprouts were a true stand out. the Large Plates (market fish and the falafel) were both delicious, but our meal was a little bit marred by the fact that one of our small plates (the charred cabbage) and one large (the falafel) came out probably 20 minutes after the other things. Since half of our group was vegetarian and half were not, this meant that the fish eating folks were done with their meal like 20 minutes before everyone else. We left those folks to pick on a dessert while the vegetarians finished up. For dessert, we tried the lemon tart and the chocolate labneh cheesecake. The lemon tart was..properly tart - would order again. That cheesecake was definitely unique, but had kind of an unexpected sour taste that I'm not sure I would recommend. Overall, the food and service were great and I'd be happy to eat here again, but it might be better in a smaller group with fewer items ordered so everything could come out in closer proximity.
