We booked online only an hour before arrival. The place was humming with pre-theatre diners, so we were offered a seat at the bar to wait. That was a good move, as we elected to stay there for the meal, and so able to talk the team once the theatre crowd left to their appointment with Don McLean at Anita's Theatre over the road. We had oyster mushroom fritters and duck meatballs for starters, red duck curry and pepper beef for main, washed down with Central Otago pinot noir. A marvellous combination, served by an attentive and engaging floor team. It was our second visit here, and the experience was a repeat 5 stars. Thanks Duck in Heaven, see you again.

We had a wonderful dining experience at Andies. The staff were knowledgeable about the menu and took the time to explain the dishes to us, which was particularly helpful as we were unfamiliar with some of the options. Their recommendations were excellent, and we were delighted that we trusted their judgement, as everything we chose was delicious. The food was exceptional, beautifully flavoured and clearly prepared with care. Service was prompt and efficient without ever feeling intrusive, allowing us to relax and enjoy our meal. The restaurant has a lovely, relaxed atmosphere, with background music at just the right volume to allow conversation to flow comfortably. It would be equally suitable for an intimate dinner or a meal with a larger group. Overall, Andies is a fantastic restaurant with excellent food, attentive service and a welcoming ambience. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would happily recommend it to others and is situated perfectly for those visiting Anita’s Theatre.

Great food and service! It was a wonderful experience!! Japanese Wagyu is sensational! And as we ended dinner staff recognized my birthday and surprised us with a slice of b-day cake, lighted candle, and a glass of muscat.

The food, drinks, service and atmosphere here is lovely. The food was really nice and filling. My only criticism is I wish the pasta and entree portion sizes were a little bigger for the price.

What an absolutely fantastic experience! My team and I had such a wonderful evening at Poly, and everyone absolutely loved it! The food was exceptional, the atmosphere was inviting, and the entire experience was truly memorable. It was the perfect setting for our team to come together, enjoy an incredible meal, and spend quality time with one another. We couldn’t have asked for a better evening. Thank you to the entire Poly team for such a lovely experience. We will absolutely be back and highly recommend it!

Friendly and helpful staff, very personable. Delicious negronis with a range of interesting options. Food especially the focaccia and the pastas were sooo good. Gorgeous interior and great spots outside if the weather is good.

    This was unbelievably good. A non pretentious shop front belies, quality drinks, share plates and great service. We shared some grilled olives, tuna toast (superb), pear salad, baked pasta (divine), lamb and a banana crème caramel that was boozy delicious. Beautiful cocktails and wines complemented with wonderful service from Tilly to made our night and dining experience one to remember. We throughly recommend Roy’s Restobar! Cheers, Rob S.
