   The location is convenient and views are incredible. The service is as you’d expect, and the server was knowledgeable and passionate about sharing a bit of history on some of the different dishes. Everyone we encountered was hospitable. The menu was small but offered a couple vegetarian options. Our group of three ordered the butter chicken, oyster mushroom and eggplant, along with bread and hummus appetizer. The butter chicken was the best of the dishes. The eggplant was okay; the sauce was pleasant but the breading on the eggplant was quite greasy. The king oyster mushroom had an unpleasant texture. The bread appetizer came with five small slices of baguette and a ramekin with hummus. The hummus was flavourless. We were celebrating two birthdays and the server brought a complimentary beverage, and presented a thoughtful postcard that had been signed by the staff.

   We had dinner and found the food and service both to be very good. The menu is limited in options, for instance there is no steak option. However, the duck was great. Service was also very good. We sat by the windows so the view of city south of Wellington was awesome.

   An excellent experience, with first rate service and very good food. The home made “catchup” was bland though, and did not complement the fries well. The burger was superb, and my guest thoroughly enjoyed the lamb meat loaf which looked fabulous!

   Service was great. Food was average. Nothing very memorable. Bread basket should be warm, and the hummus of the day was bland.

   Hi Steven, thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the service and ambiance. We appreciate your comments about the food. We receive fresh bread every day, which is why we serve it at room temperature rather than heated. However, we understand your preference and will take your feedback into consideration. We hope to provide you with a more memorable experience on your next visit!

   This was an odd experience. The restaurant is really really loud to begin with, but on top of that we reserved for a milestone birthday and were placed in a corner to the side of the open bar, where waiters were in and out beside us. Realistically this should not be a seating area for guests. On top of the boisterous tables around us, the gossip of the mingling servers, the phonecalls, and the dishwasher were what we were constantly having to try and talk over. The service was extremely slow, the waiter always interrupted mid sentence, and despite mentioning it was a milestone during reservations, no desert menu was provided (which was fine, we were pretty ready to leave by then). The food is not impressionable. We regret choosing Stratus and would not recommend it to friends/colleagues.
