We’re deeply humbled and proud to announce that Tala has been named Best Restaurant in New Zealand at the 2026 Hospitality New Zealand Awards for Excellence!
The heart of Polynesia has taken the top spot! 🌺💙 But let’s get one thing straight: this is not an individual award. You cannot tell the story of Tala with just one name. This belongs to every single person on our team who pours their heart into the kitchen, the floor, and our guests every single night.To our amazing staff—your dedication, passion, and the spirit of Fa’a Samoa (the Samoan way) are what make Tala so special . You turn a meal into a journey, and this milestone belongs to all of you. Fa’afetai tele lava! 🇼🇸🥂
