It was our second visit to the curve restaurant and we were very happy with the wonderful waitress . She got me a cushion for my back and closed the doors as it had gotten chilly. She was very good and kind. The meal was delicious. I think this restaurant deserves real consideration from the people of napier and surrounds. While you can't expect it to be cheap it was definitely worth the money. I felt the surroundings could be jazzed up bit. Dead flower arrangements are not my favorite. But overall we can recommend it and we will be back!

We stayed overnight and met up with family for the Sunday breakfast buffet. You can ask for poached or fried eggs if you don't want the scrambled eggs on offer, or order more crispy bacon if it's running low. The orange juice was amazing. The main thing for us was the outstanding service given by Bee. We were really impressed.

Came in for dinner with my partner and two kid. Food was great, atmosphere was great! But the best part of all was our waitress Bee. She made the whole experience so much better. Her attention to detail, her attitude was just amazing. My little girls aged 5 & 6 wanted to leave a drawing for her however team out of time. They wanted to say “ Thankyou buzzy bee for giving us the pictures to draw with and being so cool” “ thankyou bee for giving us the yummy food. Thankyou for being really nice and for giving us yummy desert” Thanks Bee for an awesome experience

The server was absolutely fantastic—so friendly, engaging, and amazing with the kids! It really made our visit extra special. The kids' meals were great (they finished it all) and we loved that the colouring/activity page was already set up on the table when we arrived. We didn’t even have to ask—such a thoughtful touch! Just so great all around!

Surprisingly, I enjoyed my meal here. The Fish was cooked to perfection, as was the rib eye steak. My side of Mash was exquisite, I’m aiming to make all these myself. The best part was the desserts, my partner, who normally doesn’t eat desserts, raved about his Lemon Tart and loved my Tropical Verrine. The only disappointment was our waiter, he was lovely, but I think he forgot about us after entrees came out. What was nice to see was the chef coming out with any late dishes, apologising and getting back to his kitchen. We came back on our last day for Breakfast, although 5 minutes away from finishing serving breakfast, the staff seated us and the kitchen baked us cinnamon rolls, danishes and croissants- just amazing! I would definitely recommend eating here.

Outstanding. Superb. Wonderful. If you are considering a meal in Napier do not overlook this gem. A fantastic chef and team who showcase Hawkes Bay produce. They take amazing ingredients and make them spectacular. Apart from the food, the service is warm and the staff are knowledgeable. I 100% recommend The Curve.
