Review of Nectar

85 The Strand, Tauranga 3110, New Zealand

Overall Rating

Review


Excellent food and service (the coffee was pretty ho-hum..). When I told the waiter I was coeliac, he took it very seriously and confirmed with the chef that my meal would be prepared accordingly.

The only glitch was a GF dessert (a stunningly good espresso panacotta) came with a new addition; a sort of tuille. When I questioned it, the waiter's face dropped and he quickly advised (apologising profusely) that it did indeed contain wheat flour. The dish was removed and replaced with another.

Overall, I was extremely pleased with the staff knowledge and the food; it just goes to show that you need to be on your guard, though.
