We had a lovely meal here. Crab cakes were outstanding. Only surpassed by the attendance of the wait staff. They décor was lovely as was the views over the bay. More

Great Thai food, nice clean flavours and well priced, though entrees a little on the small side for the price. Cocktails are not their forte though so stick to the standard drinks More

What a stunning setting a lovely clean alfresco Thai restaurant. We had a set $15 lunch which was really good and well worth the money. The Beer & wine was a bit pricey but they offer BYO. The only thing that wasn,t as good was the service which was efficient but not overly friendly. A good choice for lunch though. More

We are a family of five that were on a day trip to Waiheke. The Red Crab was recommended by the driver. For a family that eats Thai regularly the fare was average from a quality of food perspective. The service was timely but not where one look at the waiters gets their attention. They have a private wireless network... More

We dined here 3 times on our 5 night trip, it was so good. Food was delicious and staff happily and obligingly accomodated us with changing certain elements of the meals (specifically making the meals spicier and making different sauces). The sizzling beef plate (with extra chillies) was great every time, and the chicken in a spicy tamarind sauce was... More
