Forest

Unclaimed

I recently dined at Forest, the Metro 2024 Supreme Restaurant of the Year, and I was thoroughly impressed! Known for their innovative vegetarian cuisine, Forest features a frequently changing menu that showcases seasonal produce and creative pairings. Highlights of our meal included the deep-fried halloumi on a savoury caramelized onion broth, the heirloom tomato salad, and the avocado & asparagus salad. Truly a standout experience! We ordered: Crunchy Cucumbers Seaweed Dusted Fries Heirloom Tomatoes Avocado & Asparagus Salad Deep Fried Halloumi w Onion Broth Honeysuckle Custard Donut

Went to Forest for dinner with a friend the other night and it was such an awesome experience. The restaurant is so beautifully set out and the decor is very intentional and warm. The atmosphere is relaxing and intimate. The food was another level, have not had a meal like that in Auckland in such a long time. Everything was paired beautifully and the vegetables were so fresh. For all you meat eaters that reckon they won’t get full / be impressed - Forest will change your life and open your mind to the world of possibilities. The seaweed dusted fries were surprisingly so good. A highlight was definitely the peach jelly and the feijoa ice cream with watermelon granita! Mega compliments to the chef (talented af) and the lovely front of house ladies who made the experience that much more relaxing and fun. Would definitely be back.

This was a beautiful cozy spot I stumbled across when trying to find somewhere I hadn’t been to in Auckland. It’s vegetarian but has a great range of food options and looks like the menu changes regularly. Service was friendly and for the quality its pricing is on par with many other establishments in Auckland. All round a quality spot I would go to again.

I had never been to a vegetarian restaurant before and didn’t know what to expect but this was an absolute 10/10 experience. Amazing food and cocktails, a couple of favorites were the corn nugget taco, the deep fried halloumi, the potato ravioli and the watermelon chilli margarita. As a meat eater I highly recommend to all as something fun to try. James Ashwin Kakapo Business Sales
