Phils Kitchen often brings happy memories of delicately-placed dishes with micro-herbs and velvet seating. If that was considered a fresh take to fine dining, then Phil Clarkes new venture across the road is a fresh take on family dining. We loved the sun streaming in from the wooden French doors and bright white ceilings and tableware. Theres a distinct modern kiwi home vibe to everything with its powder blue accents, white subway tile feature walls and a large grey lounging sofa complete with an overflowing tox box.Everything on the menu was generous in portion and just freaking delicious. The calamari was succulent and in all honesty, a little bit dangerous while the angus sirloin, according to Piripiri, is the best hes ever tasted. And can just we talk about that Beef Cheek burger? The meat was so soft and tender it fell apart (in the best possible way) with a gentle nudge of the fork. Why arent more people talking about this place? For the love of food, just go.Check out our individual food reviews here: husk.co.nz/lunches/kingsland-social-nov-2018
Second time Ive been here and I was disappointed. Their Instagram is very impressive but what we were served today was underwhelming. The creme brle was nice 4/5. The eggs bene with salmon was okay but the amount of salmon was literally a thin shred 2/5 nothing like their instagram pics. The sirloin steak was definitely the most disappointing. The steak was thin and over cooked. The menu mentioned broccolini only to be served two leaves of bok choy. When we asked why we had no broccoli, a chef or maybe an owner (while about four staff stood around conversing in front of the till) shrudded his shoulders with no interest. It would have been nice to be told that they were out of certain produce instead of just replacing it with a disappointing substitute.
New cafe in Kingsland. Lots of space with indoor & outdoor seating as well as couches & a kids area. Great to see the open kitchen.Service was friendly & efficient. Coffee was well made with cute saucers!Food was delicious – a good menu with the standard favourites as well as a few twists. Keen to visit again & try their lunch menu too.
Probably the best deluxe cheese burger in NZ – and possibly the world. And the accompanying duck fat chips and garlic aioli are fab too. You can tell the top notch trained chefs are involved. Oh and great service too.
I really liked the wide openness of this place as soon as we walked in. The owners greeted us with a smile and the service was quick and efficient. I had the avocado and eggs on toast which was visually appealing and tasted delicious!
