23rd September 2013 Pity no reviews since 2010. As expected the entrance is like visiting a private home & having to ring the front door bell to gain entrance! Yes fine dining and very "old school" but that was what we wanted to experience. The male wait staff seemed to all be from France & their accents were appealing. The food was delightful & we thoroughly enjoyed our choices.
Unfortunately our table was right by the entrance/exit & next to the toilets so a lot of foot traffic during our visit.
It was expensive (as again expected) & with drinks, starters & mains for four, cost $560.
Since opening the doors of Antoine's in 1973, we have experienced many changes in our cuisine.
Sometimes change doesn't suit everyone, hence the creation of our Nostalgia Menu. These dishes have proven to be timeless favourites often requested and unique to Antoine's.
We are sure that in time, many of our current dishes will also be inducted into our Nostalgia Menu.
In the meantime, we hope you enjoy the offerings from times past and savour the flavours of where we are today.
We look forward to welcoming you back to Antoine's to enjoy the very best of New Zealand cuisine presented with international flair and local pride.
30th August 2014 Had dinner at Antoine's for the second time and was disappointed. Although the setting was wonderful and the service provided was excellent; the food let me down. My wife and I spent $300 and we left unfulfilled. The trio was lacking in flavour, and my wife's steak was just ordinary but tender. Again, it was lacking in flavour. Best martini's in Auckland however. Probably won't return again and will let our feet do our talking.

17th August 2010 Antoines is an Auckland institution, a meal there is something to write home about in my opinion.
Tony's French Onion Soup always delivers.
Quiet and efficient service.
Very old school, just the way it needs to stay.

21st March 2007 I took a friend to this restaurant as a treat and we were quite taken aback at the entrance to the place - pokey and dark with grey material on the walls which made it totally uninviting. Ushered to our table I was not impressed that my chair had a huge stain on it and my friend was seated in such a way that she was looking straight in at the kitchen. The food was okay, but certainly nothing to rave about and there was a lack of ambience to the place. It might have been THE place to be in the 1970s, but it sure needs jazzing up for the 21st century!
