Char Grill Wood Oven Takanini — Restaurant in Papakura

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nestled in the heart of Takanini, Char Grill Wood Oven is a hidden gem that promises an unforgettable dining experience. From the moment we stepped inside, we were enveloped by the warm ambiance and the inviting aroma of wood-fired goodness.

We decided to try the Chicken Fettuccine and their renowned pizza, accompanied by a side of Kuma chips. Let me just say, every bite was a revelation!

The Chicken Fettuccine was a masterpiece. The pasta was cooked to perfection, with a delightful al dente texture that held onto the creamy sauce beautifully. The chicken was tender and juicy, infused with flavors that danced on the palate. Fresh herbs and a sprinkle of parmesan elevated the dish, making it a comforting yet sophisticated choice. I found myself savoring each mouthful, reluctant to let it end!

Now, let’s talk about the pizza. Char Grill Wood Oven certainly lives up to its name, as the wood-fired crust was nothing short of perfection. It had that ideal balance of crispy on the outside while remaining soft and chewy on the inside. Topped with fresh ingredients and a generous amount of cheese that melted beautifully, every slice was a delicious burst of flavor. The combination of toppings was thoughtful and inventive, making it a standout pizza that you won't find anywhere else.

And then there were the Kuma chips—oh, the Kuma chips! These weren’t just your average fries; they were crispy, golden, and seasoned to perfection. Each bite was a delightful crunch, making them the perfect accompaniment to our meal.

Beyond the food, the service at Char Grill Wood Oven was exceptional. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the menu. They offered great recommendations and ensured that our dining experience was seamless from start to finish.

In conclusion, Char Grill Wood Oven in Takanini is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates amazing food and outstanding service. Whether you’re in the mood for comforting pasta, mouth-watering pizza, or simply a cozy atmosphere, this place has it all. I can’t wait to return and explore more of their tantalizing menu!

HORRIBLE. AVOID. TRUST ME. We thought we would just try this place as we normally head to BlackSmith. Glad we did because we will never go back. We phoned an order for 1x Shish Kebab, 1x Jujeh Kebab & 1x Chicken Cranberry Pizza and was told 30min wait which was fine. We get to the this place 30mins later, we paid almost $50 total and the woman behind the till added another 10mins to our order. We thought ok, let patiences set in. Almost an hour later for our food! WTFrick! &What a waste of money!! The Shish Kebab & Jujeh was suppose to have saffron rice - it was white rice smeared with minimal saffron water. The minced lamb (Jujeh) was like eating a long dry patty from the freezer. NOTHING was authentic. We actually feel sorry for this place koz it won't last long. Drastic changes need to happen for this place to survive. And the female behind the counter needs to worry more on customer service than lip syncing the music she selects on...

My past experiences with coming here for their food have always been 10/10 but yesterday was definitely a different story unfortunately! I ordered the fish and chip meal that came with 2 snapper, chips, egg and salad. It looked so good when it got to me but when I cut into it and went to go put it in my mouth I could smell a strong ammonia smell coming from it and anyone who smells that would know that it means it’s DEFINITELY OFF! I immediately stopped eating the fish and was put off of the whole plate if I’m being honest. I am disgusted now knowing that whoever cooked my meal would be able to serve that to customers! 🤮 I won’t be coming back because if you guys are willing to serve off fish to customers, I can only imagine what else you guys could be serving that’s off too!! PLEASE make sure you guys check your stock and that it’s up to date and fresh so nobody has to...
