We have been regular diners at this vineyard restaurant ever since it first opened. The food was originally shared platters (still available and very good) but now it is mostly more upmarket restaurant food. The food here is very good, as are the wines - and being a winery the wines are very reasonably priced. Over the years it has... More

It is worth taking a drive to this modern restaurant situated among the vines of Villa Maria. Plenty of outdoor dining with large grounds . Staff are always pleasant and helpful. The entrance is through the cellar door, so you can always take home some wine. Close to the airport, this is a good place to visit if you are... More

Sitting on the terrace and having a light meal on a sunny day was nice. Food was a little expensive but the wine pairings were good. It is a large corporate space used for events so a bit sterile, but well maintained. The wait staff was pleasant, but sparse.

Excellent service for lunch, even tho it was quite busy and we hadn't booked, food was great, wine even better.

First class food, on a par with any 5 star London restaurant. For a bit extra you can have a wine selected for you with each course, a good idea if you are a wine virgin....we ddnt o the vineyard tour itself, I am saving that for the next visit, so I have an excuse to visit the restaurant agin

Fabulous location, excellent service from staff. The food and drink was delicious. This was a day to remember. Would recommend this venue unreservedly.

We had time to kill between picking up 2 of our daughters from separate flights so we went to Villa Maria for lunch. It was absolutely delightful. There is a good cellar door at this winery which is surrounded by vines yet it is right by the airport. The lunch was delicious and we shared a top notch sauvignon blanc.It... More

it is such a delight to find this winery and cafe in the most unexpected place - the industrial heart of Auckland Airport. It is a pocket of peace and tranquillity amidst the rather awful surroundings. We have previously attended the winery concerts at Villa Maria and these are great fun! Beautiful sunset overlooking the vineyards with great music. Anyway,... More

Great place to visit if you are between flights or have a spare hour or two. The wine is great, food is above average, but we did find the service slow. (Maybe a one off). We have been before and the service was great.
