Gracias - Whanganui

The warm ambience of the restaurant upon entering is comforting, open and welcoming. Seating space generously roomy, can move around with ease, for plus size people that is awesome!! All staff accommodating and kind. The host greeted our table with a cheerful charming manner and the gorgeous waitress serves with genuine care and friendliness. Now for the food WOW! Generous portions at amazing prices. We shared the Jalapeno Bites which are crispy, oozing with smooth flavoured Jalapeno melting cheese, served with freshly sliced Jalapeno that added extra heat absolutely exquisite!! For my main I chose the 'Loaded Quesadillas with Beef Brisket served with lightly toasted tortillas and four sides of dipping or filling sauces! Beef mildly spicy and melted in mouth, coupled with the crunch of the tortilla oozing with a blend of sauces, it was a roll my eyes back experience!! Desert one single serve of a massive waffle, berries, sauce, ice cream and cream served 3 adults! The only criticism is, wasn 't enough sauce lol. To be honest we didn 't need dessert honestly we were all so full and more than pleasantly satisfied we were determined to complete the three course experience! I 'm disappointed that I didn 't take photos!!! There will be a next time. This restaurant is outstanding on all fronts!! Thank you Graham (host)

Lovely meal great ingredients great cooking Two moans, though menu didn't make sense badly set out, and the staff were slightly overwhelmed by the amount of customers it was a busy sat eve ..

A hidden gem in Whanganui, really tasty food, excellent customer service with great views over the Whanganui Awa. Totally stepped up with an unexpected large party, providing blankets to keep off the chill not the chilli! Recommend this highly and will be back, thank you Graham and the team.

Brought a large group of 9 kids for dinner. We all loved the food. I had the beef/steak fajita and the loaded fries. The plate sizes are very generous we had so much food we couldn't eat it all. I definately recommend the churro bites for dessert. Great value for money and really friendly staff. Will be back.

Fantastic food and atmosphere!!! Clean tidy and well presented.Great staff too
