Sails Restaurant
Auckland
At a glance
Never was a dining room more aptly named... Sails Restaurant sits right on the edge of Auckland's Westhaven Marina - in fact, you can probably get a good look at what you'll be soon be feasting on...
Whether you're a visitor working your way leisurely around Auckland's myriad of top eateries, or a business person anxious to impress that million-dollar client you've been grooming for months, a meal at Sails is guaranteed to stick in the memory for all the right reasons.
Where else in this city can you sit and look out over hundreds of boats whilst tucking into course after course of locally-sourced, award-winning dishes?
As you might expect, seafood is a big crowd-pleaser at Sails. Why not start with the sea scallops pan seared to whet that appetite for a fresh New Zealand crayfish, grilled with lemon oil and hollandaise sauce. And don't worry, there's plenty of choice for the unashamed carnivores amongst you, too - the Hawkes Bay lamb is a best seller, and the confit duck takes indulgence one step further with its sunchoke, beetroot, mandarin gel, spiced jus.
If you've got room for dessert, the warm chocolate fondant with Whittakers chocolate cremeux and pistachio gelato is a regular master of seduction, or Crème Brûlée with cinnamon sponge, biscoff crumble, feijoa & granny smith apple sorbet.
And you can't come to somewhere like Sails and not take advantage of the extensive, individually selected wine list that truly celebrates all that is great about New Zealand wine. Professional sommeliers will be more than happy to recommend the best vintages to accompany your meal - and with over 150 wines to choose from, you might have trouble leaving...
