Mekong Baby - Auckland

Wow, this is my new favourite restaurant! The waitress was so brilliant, listened to my allergies, totally got what I said and relaid it to the chef, who cooked the BEST meal I have ever had out. Tasty, vegan, GF and allergy friendly, it was the Tofu veg dish with turmeric and garlic and was divine, (and only had a small adaptation for my allergies).My husband had the beef pad see uw. He loved it. It was cooked to perfection, fresh and the veg and meat were flawless.Great atmosphere in there, nothing was too much bother for the staff, The decor was great, clean toilets and even the other customers were all lovely. The whole place was fantastic.LOVE IT and will definitely be going back with the rest of my family, (there is also a lovely kids menu too).

Enjoyed an early dinner and drinks with a friend last week at Mekong Baby. It was my second time there and it did not disappoint. I was greeted by a lovely young man (I think the manager) who was very welcoming. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing and so were the cocktails. Highly recommend the pork belly and the jungle baby cocktail, it was my favourite of the four I consumed that evening. Will definitely be back!

Awesome service. Great food and cocktails, pricey but worth it.

First time at Mekong Baby, and I was completely surprised by the version of Asian fusion cuisine we received. The flavour combinations were unexpected but definitely well received, and the drinks...wow. I purchased one of their spicy cocktails (aptly named 'venom ' , expecting a hint of spice in an otherwise flavourful drink. Once again, Mekong Baby surpassed my expectations and I was left with a VERY spicy drink, which unfortunately left me unable to taste much else of the drink, but it was definitely an experience I won 't forget.<br/ <br/ The staff were amazing. We had a waitress named Aria (who apparently no longer works there who was attentive, funny, and very genuine. Another staff member, I believe his name was Manesh, who was the liason person between the wait staff and chefs, came to check on us and suggested the apple and almond tart for dessert. He was charming and very right the apple and almond tart was complex in flavours and absolutely delicious.<br/ <br/ The only downsides would be that I found the braised pork to be slightly too sweet and the prawn cakes to be lacking depth of flavour. The curries were lovely, as was the view of the kitchen. Would go back for that tart!

Our first time at Mekong baby was a great success. Manish looked after us and made us feel really special. His wine recommendation was spot on. And then the food, that was spectacular. We took the Let's Eat! options so we got a fantastic sample across the menu and every dish that came out looked and tasted fantastic. I am so happy I chose this venue for our anniversary thank you Mekong Baby for making our evening such a special one.
