We used this Restaurant for our wedding breakfast about 5 weeks ago. It was superb. Many of the guests were “foodies” just like us and all agreed the food was to die for. The service was first class in a friendly relaxed but very professional manner.
So , when visiting Hamilton again just last week for 4 days we decided to go back to the Novotel Tainui again for a meal for 2. We were not at all disappointed. In fact we “oohed and aahed” our way through the menu. Service was great. Young, nice looking, clean cut , well dressed , men and women.
Would highly recommend it to anyone with a discerning palate.

what to say… it all looks very classy and the staff professional. We had booked for four people and as two were arriving a bit late, two of us were shown to our table; after the other two members of our group arrived after about five minutes, it took about ten minutes before the waitress arrived with the menu’s apologizing profusely for the delay;
we ordered some drinks, which also took ages to arrive; the juices for the ladies, containing more ice then juice; we ordered s variety of breads and our meals; after what seemed ages (and was in fact 45 minutes !) our meals arrived with more apologies for the time it took… when we asked what happened with our breads, it was more oops and apologies; the meals were rather mediocre and certainly not what you would expect from a classy looking place like this and not presented with great flair or anything like that;
it was not busy at all, and we hate to see how this place would perform on a busy night; it wasn’t quite faulty towers, but certainly had a few touches of it; We dine out a lot, and find that restaurant on alma all though having good looks, view and atmosphere , that it fell short in delivery of service and food quality.
we certainly wont go back there.

Large group @ the bar so a little noisy in the restaurant until the crowd left!
Service VERY professional,friendly & quick!
The pork & salmon dishes were cooked to perfection!
Intimate setting & a little bit posh with candles & lights on dim & tables facing out to the river!
Next time the brunch would be worth trying on the balcony in warmer weather!
