The food is very good, but from sitting down to getting it - took almost an hour. We were told it was because "it was very busy" although the place wasn't even entirely full. The problem is the main thing to order there is pizza and those go into the oven one by one, so just with having a few parties that wanted to eat at the same time - we were left waiting for so long we thought they had misplaced our order... Salmon fillet on a salad - amazingly good, well made, flavourful, but not a dish that is enough as a full meal. The pizzas were not bad at all. The mushroom one a bit too salty. With 4 people having 3 pizzas and the salmon - we were almost all full in the end. Would have ordered a little something else so we wouldn't need to go home and eat something, but we actually needed to get home and did not have another 40min to wait for another order. Staff are very friendly (although for the extreme lateness we got an apology, not compensation) and the place is well decorated and feels very nice to sit in and maybe have a drink (we didn't - one of us was driving, two were under-age), but if you are in any hurry at all to get anywhere, or just to eat - maybe this is not the place.

Very quiet when we went while next door was busy at a rainy lunchtime. Tried to order pizza but was told it wasn't available until after 4pm - pity the menu doesn't mention that. No barista here, only filter coffee but that filter coffee is very good - it comes with cream. Had the salmon gravlax which was excellent, curly fries and burger also very good but fish and chips had soggy fish.

It's conveniently located on the way from Akaroa to Christchurch. The food is tasty and I love the smoked salmon. Great ambience and wonderful service. It's to our surprise that even some toys were provided to the kids while we were waiting for our food.

Great lunch with friends, the waitress updated us on extra dishes added by the chef on the day. Little River is a special place to dine.

Yum. A small but perfectly formed menu well executed and with delightful service. Pizza was delish, fish was crunchy, dessert was yum.

The souvlaki was one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth. I literally gave my compliments to the chef for the first time in my life. The amount of flavor in that meat...

Very good pizza. My husband said one of the best he had had. Our host was friendly and attentive. All our food arrived promptly and was pipping hot. We sat in the area at the back of the restaurant in a sheltered spot in the winter sun and it was very pleasent.
