Bidrage med feedbackJust amazing. Everything on the menu seems to be sensational....briefly considered staying in Christchurch for a fortnight to cover the menu. Now just thinking of flying over from Brisbane fairly regularly. Truly the best food I've had all year, in this funny tiny upstairs restaurant. Ask for their recommendation on craft beer. Eat as much as you can. Revel in the expert, foodloving staff. Best ever.
This was our first visit to Twenty Seven Steps. We went for dinner on a week day. All in all, it was a wonderful experience. We started with a drink ‘Downstairs’ (that’s the name of the place! before heading up. The restaurant was absolutely full, which shows its popularity. Between three of us, we shared two starters and two mains. Everything was delicious and well presented. The flavours were quite different to the ordinary. We loved all the dishes. We finished our evening with one dessert shared between three. Highly recommended. I will be happy to dine here again.
The pork belly thing was wild!!!! Terrific fusion plate! The food and service are great. No wonder why always full house!
I went to Twenty Seven Steps for dinner on a Saturday night and arrived with already high expectations, but my expectations were well and truly surpassed! The restaurant has a fantastic location in the heart of New Regent Street, with huge windows looking out over the beautifully illuminated Spanish Mission buildings and all the action on the street below. Complimentary house bread was quickly served and I started with the 'Miss World ' cocktail, which expertly paired the bitterness of the gin with sweetness from the Campari, vermouth and pinot noir. For a starter I chose the tempura harissa cauliflower. Whilst all the dishes were spectacular this would have to be the standout, it was just so surprising! The cauliflower was super crispy and paired well with the peanut chilli oil and almond and garlic aioli. For my main course it wouldn 't be a trip to Aotearoa without venison, so I went with the Tai Tapu venison tenderloin. Served blue, rare or medium rare, I went with medium rare and it was still super tender and flavourful. It paired well with the confit potato and seasonal vegetables. The recommended wine pairing, a Mount Edward Pinot Noir from Central Otago was an inspired suggestion. For dessert I had the sticky date pudding and a glass of Mazuran 's Special Reserve Port, a sweet finish to a perfect meal. Service was excellent, the staff are all really friendly and welcoming and know the menu well. Didn 't feel at all pretentious as some establishments do; it was still casual and welcoming, which was something I noticed when they were describing the specials and went into detail on what some of the lesser known items actually were. Timing on each course was perfect as well, didn 't feel rushed at all. All things considered I think the prices were very reasonable. Would recommend Twenty Seven Steps for visitors and locals alike!
Came here from Melbourne specifically because we loved their Akaroa restaurant Little bistro, these guys have it right. Beautifully executed food and service, cute little restaurant in New Regent st.. suits what you had before and your progression to where you are now. Being a chef of 16yrs myself, I couldn't fault anything.. wine list is amazing, beer list is extremely on point, menu is excellent and pthe specials compliment everything perfectly. The service is second to none. Exactly what we experienced in Akaroa too. So glad you guys are rocking it and keeping what you know works without the need for change. We love it. Don't change. X
