Although Kaikoura is a little ghost town like at the moment, where clearly the closure of the roads following the recent earthquake has had an impact, the food quality at Zephyrs was absolutely first class. Fish of the day was excellent and the venison dish topnotch. Service was quick and efficient too. Thoroughly recommended.

Lucky find on the main street in Kaikoura. Newly and tastefully decorated. Beautifully prepared and presented food. The crispiest of duck fat roast potatoes with each main dish. Better food than some of the more renowned restaurants in town. Cheerful and unfussy service. We loved it!

It takes a lot for my husband to name a dish best ever, but the venison he had at Zephyr and the accompanying sauce earned that title from him. My roasted vegetable salad with locally made Kaikoura goat cheese was delicious also. Nice moderately priced wines by the glass topped things off nicely. We liked it so much we're going back tomorrow night!!
