The Grill

We had a wonderful dinner there on Wednesday night. The menu offered plenty of great options, complemented by a wide selection of drinks. The ambience was lovely, and we were given a lovely table. Highly recommended and will definitely be back soon!

Had the most amazing steak dinner here. We were here for our anniversary and had the most attentive waitress! Both ordered steak, fries and mac and cheese - all a hit! We opted for some dessert too which was great. Atmosphere was super nice being dimly lit. Would definitely come again!

A great restaurant that has excellence customer service as well as high quality food. We went to The Grill for the very first time, and tried their Truffle menu. Omg, it was so good. I love the customer service there, the waitress are very good observer, she realize my friend didn’t drink much of her drink. She came in to check in and offer to change another drink for her, love her attention to detail. All staff are very professional and creates a very cozy environment for dining. It is spacious with the cozy ambient. The beef Wellington is a must try! Very happy with the whole experience

We went to The Grill for a birthday dinner, and it turned out to be one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a while 🤩 From start to finish, the staff were warm, attentive, and incredibly accommodating, and the ambiance was spot on - stylish yet comfortable. I especially love that we can see the chefs in action and can hear someone say every few minutes “service!” It was like I was part of Masterchef 👩‍🍳 We ordered the Mapari Sirloin steak, The Grill Beef Burger, Mac n’ Cheese, and a Kawakawa mojito. The steak was cooked to medium rare perfection, with the Nelson truffle butter being the perfect pairing. The burger was full of flavour, and the mac n’ cheese with truffle was rich, creamy, and absolutely delicious *chef’s kiss * By the end, we were SO full, so we kept dessert simple with an affogato. The Hummingbird espresso was strong and paired beautifully with the ice cream. They also surprised us with a complimentary dessert for my partner’s birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch. I had a few options in mind for where to celebrate this special day, and I’m so glad I chose The Grill. It made the night feel extra special.. highly recommended and we’ll definitely be back! 🥩🍔🍸

One of the best restaurants to get steak in Auckland! We couldn’t quite decide so we opted for the “Study of Beef” - they served us the First-Light wagyu bavette, Lake Ohau wagyu scotch fillet and Southern Stations wagyu sirloin. We chose the miso hollandaise, truffle butter and peppercorn sauce to go with our steaks. Also paired with a nice bottle of Pinot Noir. The steak and sauces/butter were all ABSOLUTELY DIVINE! Didn’t order it myself but my friend got the beef burger and I had a bite of it. I’m not a big fan of burgers, especially not in New Zealand but to my surprise, it was so juicy (even with the patty requested to be well done) and full of flavour!! The patty was grilled to perfection with some slight crispness around the edges. Would without a doubt return here in heartbeat!

The staff was super attentive, and the service was great. The food was high quality, but a bit salty for us. The place is huge, and the tables are spaced out, so it wasn't cramped or noisy. We had a really nice time here. Thank you.

I went here for dinner yesterday and overall had a decent experience. I started with the seafood chowder, which was probably the highlight of the meal. It had a generous amount of diced seafood, and the soup itself was creamy, rich, and full of flavour. It came with two slices of toasted bread and some flavourful butter—both were great accompaniments. For mains, I ordered the 350g Angus steak and the 300g wagyu rump cap. Both steaks were okay, but the wagyu rump cap was served dripping with red liquid after a few minutes it had been served, which made me think it hadn’t been properly rested. As a result, it wasn’t particularly juicy, but it was still tender and flavourful. I also had the roasted vegetables and mashed potato on the side. Unfortunately, I found the mash too heavy—it tasted like it was made with more butter than potato, which wasn't to my liking. That said, the service was excellent. The staff were warm, friendly, and attentive throughout the evening.

Having stayed at Horizon Hotel from 25/7/2025 to 26/7/2925, my husband and I went to The Grill for breakfast on 26/7/2025. A La Carte breakfast is served with some selections of fresh fruits, bakery and congee. However, if you want any coffee made by the coffee machine, you have to pay for it. Honestly, I have never come across this surcharge on coffee for any breakfast at any hotels around the world. Anyway, we didn’t order any coffee as we prefer to have our coffee somewhere else. Food was okay but not so impressive. We won’t go there again in future.
