Restaurants in Tasman

Superb food, good service and excellent value for money. If you are close to Motueka I would recommend that you take time out to experience what in my opinion is the finest curry in the world!

Quality Food and friendly service. Highly recommended, the best Chinese restaurant in the area.

FROM ICONIC TO PATHETIC. HOT Mamas cafe was once a colorful, lively iconic venue of Motueka. Those times are long gone. It has now been turned into a sterile, blend and tasteless venue. To top that, the simple menu has been simplified even further by removing the tasty burger menu; it now consists basically of pizza, pasta or noodles, steak or fish and chips; and that's it as far as main goes. As if this was not bad enough, the owner will take your plate from you and kick you out if you complain about a 40 minutes wait for steak and chips. And I'm not making this up, that is what happened to my partner and I last night as we wanted to try the place under the new management. We both work in the service industry, we know the customer is always right, and this was simply an unacceptable behavior. Although we were some of the lucky ones, as I should specify our wait was minimal compare to some other tables. A couple in particular was already sitting down waiting for there meal when we arrived; they were still waiting when we left over an hour later. I suspect they may still be waiting. My advice is stay well clear of HOT MAMA's for now.

Fantastic! Love the open kitchen...best duck dish I've ever had, seriously considered getting it again instead of dessert but the choc dessert divine too!! My fav special occasion (or any occasion) resturant in the top of the South.

Excellent lunchtime/evening food with the backdrop of the Abel Tasman National Park. Reasonable food and drink prices, we have dined here several times and never been disapointed. Highly recommended.
