We were greeted by the waiter. However, dinner was not served until 5.30pm. So, we decided wait and ordered a bottled of red. After waited 30mins a waiter told us the special of the day. We both ordered two mains. They were fish of the day and venison . Fish dish had less salt, but still tasty. However, venison were medium rare but burnt from the outside. It was quite disappointed night for us.
Had dinner there – food is amazing and the service us just as good. Expect to pay Auckland prices though. for a great night out highly recommended! Go do it!
Lovely spot for a drink but the meals were appalling. For the price you’re paying, you expect a superior cut of meat, not lamb loin that is very fatty and full of gristle. Very good service and wine selection.
An expensive place to grab an afternoon drink, but a great spot to relax with friends or a loved one. There is indoor, covered and outdoor seating with a TV under the covered patio. There is a spot for a bar under the covered patio, but I’ve never been there when anyone was running it. The bar space inside is small, but there is a formal dining area that takes up most of the room. It’s a very dark space. Be prepared to drop some gold coins for food and drinks here. Mini burgers off the bar menu were $15 and a plate of olives were $8. They have a reasonable amount of beers on tap and a full bar as well, so you can quench whatever tastebuds you’d like. They occasionally have live music, but so does everywhere else in Merivale, so don’t feel obligated to pay their high prices just to hear a band. If money is no object, check this place out because the menu does look appetizing.
we were trying to get into jdv in merivale just to hang out with some friends and i was with a friend who just had an acl surgery couple of days ago. he couldnt wear a pair of long pants because he couldnt get his leg into it. but the bouncer wouldnt let him in with shorts and telling us they have a dress code.
We arrived and JDV was very busy but staff were very accommodating, we wanted a special meal and we got it. Matt was our waiter/manager for the night and his service could not be faulted. The food was fantastic from the fresh dukha to the pork belly to the dessert complete with moon rocks lol. Extensive wine list with a wide selection available by the glass. We enjoyed dessert wines and Matt even let us sample some others. Evening finished with staff ordering a cab for us and wishing us a good nite. Top Knot ch guys
The service was really awful, the food mediocre at best. We were even spoken to rudely by a woman who we later found out was the manager! We couldnt believe it. Its a place I know I wont be going to again and I can speak for the others in our group in saying that they wont be either. We ended the night next door at aikmans which was a much more positive environment.
