Neighbourhood restaurant on Garnet Road Westmere Auckland. 100% not authentic.

03/06/2026

We are farewelling one of our lovely FOH duty managers! So therefore we are on the lookout for someone cool to join our team. Ragtag is a fun, little neighbourhood restaurant, and we have a tight team! We often spend the weekends braiding each other’s hair and singing folk songs by the fire (This has happened and isn’t hyperbole). We are Open seven days, so a bit of flexibility in the week, shifts approx 11am till latest 12am, usually earlier, depends on how much fun we’re having.

This position is permanent part time 30hours minimum.

Must have: Duty Manger licence, experience running shift, and right to work in NZ. Please email us [email protected] with your CV, cover letter, & availability.

Our duck tacos have been on the menu since day one & they have been iconic ever since! Made with a flour duck fat tortilla, crispy confit duck leg, beetroot salsa and a burnt onion cream, these moorish tacos are a flavour bomb you can’t miss out on! We are open 7 days a week so plenty of time to come in and try them for yourselves ###

Tis the season for some warming unctuous dishes on the menu! Our mushroom rice is served with mushroom XO butter, grilled mushrooms and a gooey soy egg, all mixed together to make a risotto like bowl of umami. Honestly love having a rice like this on the menu! Cheeky spoonful of this bad boy in a tortilla wouldn’t be a bad idea either. Perfect dish as the weather starts to chill out a bit and we get to turn the heaters on for you all! It’s quite nice sitting outside under a heater on a crisp night. But if you wanna be inside, make sure you book ahead ###

Our famous steak, stealing the show and making the grill work overtime! Served with “hot-sauce” a soy egg and Taipei butter inspired by our time . All served with duck fat flour tortillas to make the most dreamy steak tacos you’ve had, pro tip is getting a baby cos on the side to jazz it up ;)

Octopus tostada with caramelised onion mayo, chilli jam, pickled chilli and fresh herbs, all resting on a cheeky .co crispy tostada. Great to smash into and share about the table, or be like this one guy I saw, and eat the whole thing in like 4 bites by themselves. Wild times. Good luck out there.

The prawn tostada has been on our menu since day one! An ode to one of the classic street food dishes we tried in LA, tacos de camarón. We thought that the classic dish was similar to a prawn dumpling so we mixed it up and made our tostada like a Chinese prawn toast. A .co corn tortilla stuffed with prawn toast mix and fried till crispy, served with a sweet mayo and sour tomato vinaigrette to cut through the rich prawn. The dish kinda sums up our whole vibe, food that looks Mexican but tastes like anything but authentic Mexican food. 100% not authentic.

Meri Kirihimete!!!! This Christmas, let’s show some aroha to the small, independent owner-operators who give Tāmaki Makaurau the beat in its heart. Our hospitality industry is a tight-knit whānau, and every coffee, kai, and catch-up spent at local spots helps keep that community thriving. There’s real power in spending locally at places whose ethos you respect — run by like minded people working bloody hard to keep culture alive in this crazy little city! If you havent been to some of these amazing places, then make sure you head out and give them a try!
Support local, spend local, celebrate local. Ngā mihi nui!
