I recently dining at Rosie's Red Hot Cantina, and overall, it was a delightful experience. The first thing that caught my attention was the great-priced menu offering a selection of delicious Mexican-styled food. From tacos to burgers, there was something for everyone. While the service was okay, it's important to note that the place was bustling on a Sunday night. The fact that it was so busy is undoubtedly a positive sign, indicating that Rosie's is a popular spot among locals and visitors alike. Despite the busyness, the staff managed to handle the crowd efficiently and were courteous throughout. One of the standout aspects of Rosie's Red Hot Cantina is the pricing. Compared to other restaurants in the area, Rosie's offers the best value for your money. It's refreshing to find a place that not only serves quality food but also keeps affordability in mind. The reasonable prices make Rosie's a great option for those on a budget or looking for a good deal. In terms of the food itself, I was thoroughly impressed. The Mexican-styled dishes were flavorful, well-prepared, and generously portioned. The menu catered to different tastes and dietary preferences, ensuring there was something to satisfy everyone's cravings. Whether you're a fan of spicy flavors or prefer milder options, Rosie's has got you covered. Based on my experience, I would wholeheartedly recommend Rosie's Red Hot Cantina to anyone in search of delicious Mexican cuisine at an affordable price. The combination of a great-priced menu, decent service, and a bustling atmosphere on a Sunday night makes it a standout option in the area. I left feeling satisfied, and I am already looking forward to my next visit to Rosie's.

The München looks very high-quality from the outside. Our waitress wore a bavarian costume and was very friendly. The atmosphere didn't seem quite comfortable but we could watch German soccer on big TVs and drink water for free which was very nice! There are only a few German dishes and others that aren't very German. Chicken wings, burgers and (German) poutine (which in reality is a national dish of the Canadians). The poutine was unfortunately not very delicious and also the jägerschnitzel didn't match our taste. In other reviews I read that the cook is German and that it is not 100 % possible to prepare the dishes as in Germany because New Zealand ingredients are used. Nevertheless, I believe that even with New Zealand ingredients and another cook a better quality in food would be possible. I would like to see that the München improves the quality of their food and that they add more German dishes to their menu. For 55 NZD it wasn't a cheap experience to try German food out of Germany but it was nice. Thank you guys!

Very cool vibe Munchen hosts that classic Bavarian beer hall style lightened by great interior design to match its seaside setting. Large and spacious Munchen is great for big groups, and has a superb array of German and Kiwi beers to keep all punters happy. The menu is hard on the South German style, so expect some delicious sausages and sauerkraut that’ll cut through the heavy gravy, pickle, and mustard flavours. Specials match beers with a meal for $25, and the beer hall bartenders each have solid knowledge of not only their HB beers but what matches will best precede, compliment, or chase you food. With knowledge and beer-appreciation like this, Munchen feels down to earth and very approachable by the average drinker. Go here for a superb walk through some of Bavaria’s best lagers, weissen, and ales, and enjoy light airy beach surrounds that could keep you seated there for many hours.

Rosie’s will always guarantee a great time, with good music and good food. The atmosphere of the restaurant is one of my favourite aspects, it’s always busy so be sure to book! You have to try their quesadilla pizza and monster nachos, they are huge and each of them can definitely be shared with 2-3 people. Their margs are amazing, plus if your there for the drinks then their starters are great little finger foods to share. Their fried chicken is amazing, always so juicy and tasty. Plus $1 wings Wednesday is always great! Another favourite thing is their hot sauce wall, you can go up and grab any hot sauces to try with your meal and they have such a huge selection. Multiple times have I tasted a hot sauce at Rosie’s and then ave ended up going and buying a bottle for home! I gave it a 4 start over 5 because their tacos are a bit of a let down, not super tasty or anything.

Wow! The hot wings here are an absolute must! Do not leave here without trying then! Hot and spicy without being overbearing they had an amazing ranch sauce to dip into. I'm ended to say that it wouldn't have been a pretty sight watching me eat these! We also tried the pork taco, unfortunately that wasn't great with the pickled onions killing the taste of anything else and the taco was very light content, disappointing for the price tag. We saw a number of people trying the monster nachos, it is massive and definitly for a group of people, we'll try that next time. Location was viby and the service was top notch with the waitress checking in often send keeping us well watered and our drinks flowing. Best place I've been in ages!

Awesome place. The service was great, and it was exceptionally quick, considering there were a lot of people there. They have a lot of outdoor seating, which is great, so you can soak up the outdoor vibe of people. The food? Well we had rad that the monster nachos were pretty good so that's what we ordered, we were asked if there were 4 of us and we did say no only 2....when it arrived we then figured out why they asked that. They aren't kidding when they say they are HUGE!! . Now I'm not a big eater but my other half isn't shy and even he couldn't handle it. We asked for a doggie bag and that covered dinner and was still not finished. So if you love nachos and want a decent feed, order this, you won't be disappointed.
