Kai Waka — Restaurant in Kaikōura

The owner is an awesome young lady with an amazing personality. The Kai was amazing . I ordered the Creamed Pãua, Ika Mata, Kaimoana Chowder ,which all came with a side of Paraoa Parai (fried bread) or Rewana Mãori (🍞). My favourite was of course the Creamed Pãua with the Rewana . The prices were good (standard prices for Kaikoura/ a tourist town). I'm yet to try the scollap and mussels dishes , which we will next time when we're in Kaikoura next.

KIA ORA RAWA ATU, KAI WAKA KAIKOURA. TILL WE EAT AGAIN MAA TE WAA...

Yummy fish burger and AMAZING Ika Mata 😮‍💨 toured the South island and in terms of value, uniqueness and deliciousness, this tops everything else we tried in NZ! Would defo try to return to try the other items...

If you're after seafood that's a bit more exciting —and affordable— than crayfish tail, this is it! Delicious new flavours, we loved the tarakihi fish burger and the Ika Mata...
