Comment: Have been here a few times for both lunch and dinner.
Most of the staff here are very friendly and courteous.
Prices are reasonable to slightly high given the location and quality of food. In terms of quantity though, could definitely be more.
Overall, good atmosphere and well presented.

Comment: The two glasses of wine stood on the bar counter for a while. The waitress came to take food order and we asked for our wine first. She had clearly forgotten. The food was ordered the main dishes arrived. The shared started dish never arrived.
The flounder was excellent the octopus pieces were only a couple. The starter dish was brought after the main dish and was complimentary. The wine was excellent.

Comment: The only thing that you receive in this restaurant is the vibe and being classy. The menu is very simple and limited. There is no art and effort in the food. Very very basic and overpriced. If you want to have a proper meal here you need to order multiple dishes. One dish is only a big chunk of mozzarella. Another one is a plate of green beans. The other one a piece of boiled tasteless chicken. You need to get all these to maybe have a meal which looks like proper food. The service is good. The location is great. The vibe is nice. Good for drinks but not food.

Comment: Without a doubt, Amano is my favourite restaurant in New Zealand.
Being open for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner I know that I can always rely on the team at Amano to exceed my expectations, every time.
The chefs do a great job at selecting in season produce which is presented impeccably. It is great to see Amano put emphasis on the provenance of their food - staff will be able to tell you the origins of where the ingredients come from.
The cocktails are a big highlight which change with the seasons. I am always confident that no matter what I try, I will love what the bar serves me. If there is something particular that isn't on the menu, they will usually be able to make it for you.
Atmosphere and Service - this is where Amano really comes to life. Being a big restaurant I am always impressed with the personal service that comes with every meal. From the moment you walk in and are greeted, to ordering food and then paying at the end, the service cant be beaten. Staff are not overwhelmed and really take the time to make sure your experience is up to their high standards.
Overall, I feel privileged to be able to able to dine at Amano. It is a non-pretentious all day restaurant that has, in my opinion, the best service in Auckland.

Comment: I had heard lots of great reviews about Amano and I can confirm expectations were met. Our group were passing and decided to try a coffee and a dessert. The trifle was spectacular as was the delicious coffee brought to us by a delightful server. I will be back but next time for more than just dessert.

Comment: A beautiful large restaurant downtown with wonderful decorative dried flower ceiling hangings. Exquisite food and impeccable service. Great music at a nice volume so it doesn't drown the conversation. It only lost a star because of the many stairs to the toilets! There is a disabled toilet on the ground floor though.

Comment: Beautiful food and friendly staff. It's very large but filled with people on a rainy Monday evening. There's a nice buzzing sound with good music, but never too loud for an intimate conversation between guests. Can't fault anything. Highly recommended. Will definitely be back.

Comment: As we often eat here and it's always great we don't think about leaving a review. But after another great meal I think its important to offer to feedback re service. It was great. Everything you want in a waitress. Well done for your continued effort to keep the bar high. Makes a dining experience that much more enjoyable.
Great daily menu and good wine list.

Comment: Love this place every time we go. Whether it's for a takeaway coffee and pastry or sit down meal, Amano never fails to impress! When dining in, the service is attentive and friendly, the food is delicious and fresh, and atmosphere is great. Worth the wait if you don't manage to secure a reservation (they only book 50% of tables in advance)

Comment: Love everything about this place. Service is superb. Atmosphere is spectacular and the food is delicious.
It would get a 5 star rating on the scampi linguini alone. This meal is incredible. A perfect mix of flavors that works really well with the bread they serve to scoop up all the sauce
