Athenia In Roma in Auckland Central

The first time i stepped into this restaurant I was hit by the delicious warm aroma of garlic bread. The decor is beautiful and the service attentive and polite. I couldn't believe I had never been here before. My meal and my friend's meals were absolutely incredible. I just read some other reviews and was shocked ! This place is amazing. I m going there again tonight!

Awesome food good chef's feels like Italia

Won't go back again.Really disappointed with their food. I found hair in my food. Upon telling the owner, he was like "oh, maybe it came from somewhere"? Really? Seems very rude to us. Not welcoming attitude and very rude. Not sure how this owner has a hospitality business but failed to understand the basic concept! I was charged $29 for it and couldn't eat it after noticing the hair. Really disappointed and won't go back..

We go quite often don't expect miracles but good honest food at reasonable prices

Cozy little Italian restaurant. Friendly, excellent service, very good food and generous portions. Have eaten there several times and next trip to New Zealand we'll be back. Very Good Stop. Don't miss it.

Great service, delicious foid

Nice atmosphere. Very popular

Awesome food. Wish I had more room. We will be back

Best chicken tandoori pizza

Beautiful, a classic!

Not fancy italian food, but good solid and tasty for a fair price. I've had better in italy but i would definitely come back here for more.

Buzzing little restaurant good Italian food. BOYB option.

Well priced and exceptional main dishes with great variety. Love their white sauce dishes while my wife loved their tomato based dishes. Pizza is very nice and well priced with great quality. So price range can be very family friendly if you just want a pizza dinner; or more fine dine cuisine range if you wish to treat yourself. Either way you are in for a treat.

Great tasting food, friendly staff, and lovely cozy place. We found this place when we drove past and smelt the Yummy food. Literally found this place with our noses! That’s how good it smelt. Can’t wait to come back and try something new!

Very Enjoyable

Absolutely love this restaurant, the best food ever!!

Grab a pizza here. Best i have ever had. I had the caza

The food is very good, fresh ingredients, well prepared and presented, and portions of a reasonable size. We really enjoyed our meal! The service is excellent. I've read that desserts are pre-made, but they were really nice nevertheless. I'd definitely recommend this place!

Beautiful meal

Quaint, great food, good service.

Cute little place. Always packed you need to book if you want to come here. Ive always found theres a long wait for food to arrive bit never disappointed in the quality.

Excellent night out

Average service

Lovely setting, awesome staff, beautiful food - best prawn risotto EVER,Can't wait to return .......

Food was enjoyable but dessert was an absolute disappointment. Very obviously not made on site, we could tell they were out of a box. Not happy as we were looking forward to a yummy dessert to end off the night. Consider going somewhere else for your dessert course.

Had great meal, and some fantastic Italian wine. Good prices and very nice staff.

Unsure of still run by the same people 7 years ago but knew someone who worked there at the age of 14 illegally who got paid $8 an hour. I trialled a day there at the age of 14 also and was horrified. Usually have one staff member doing everything while the owners just watch. Saw owners taking tips for themselves. All of the desserts come out of a box (I've seen it being done). Little to no staff training just yelling if you get something wrong. Staff turnover rate was so high it was a new underage girl a month. Often dismissed for unfair 'reasons'. For the prices people pay to eat there it is just disgusting.

One of our favorite places

Absolutely our families favorite Restaurant By far . Food is always divine and yes Dessert comes out of a box but you can always have the Grilled Banana 😍 The staff are always friendly and The owners have been the same for about 14 years 👍Well done Athenia Highly Recommend 👍👍

Truly awful, would never go back

Good friendly service.

Pizzas ordered by takeaway. I have to say that 2 different flavours, pepperoni & athenia special were both tasteless. My partner & I disappointed.

Good food, well priced. Good atmosphere. Enjoy going here all the time. The fish is amazing

Great food!

My first sub 4 star. Food I felt was average, a trip to the toilets and seeing the scummy dirty doors everywhere left me seriously wondering about hygiene. I wouldn't have noticed if not black and grey with scum. Above average pricing, below average food. Just saying how I see it.

Food and company was Wonderful!

Good food, good environment and good people.

We found the restaurant rather "tired". Toilets decidedly unattractive and we seriously doubt good hygiene standards there. And the dessert menu sheet was shocking for its tatty look - again it was most off-putting. Not an experience we will repeat. Food average.
