We're stoked to be recognised by Viva as one of the best New Zealand restaurants outside of Auckland.

"Kisa, Wellington, opened three years ago mere metres from my ex-Cuba St digs and taunting me on Instagram ever since, Kisa was top of my list when I revisited my old haunts. The always-buzzing, earth-toned space comes courtesy of Mosaic Venues, the clever team behind Mr Go’s and Island Bay newcomer Parla. Each dish is built for sharing, and happily so, because you’ll want to taste as much on the menu as possible. We broke bread over warm, house-baked pita and a trio of dips; the date labneh and muhammara in particular had us sparring over the final swipes. Small and large mezzes followed, introduced by our faultless waiter with the kind of care that feels like you’re digging into a home-cooked meal. The spiced wild goat flatbread with candied jalapenos and toum won special praise from our table, and the fall-apart lamb shoulder was a firm standout, although the steamed market fish and vegan-friendly falafel looked equally delicious. The drinks list is both thoughtful and exhaustive, spotlighting local spirits in carefully crafted cocktails and New Zealand wines practically deserving of their own menu. With its Middle Eastern influences and modern finishes, Kisa is worthy of its own pilgrimage."
