Wholly Smoked in Rotorua

"We had the meat platter for two. The meat were very tender. The ribs literally fell of the bone. Everything were very tasty. I recommend"

"Food came out quickly and was great. I had doubts after reading previous reviews of the place, but looks like they have stepped it up. The smoked lamb burger was tasty, strong flame grill flavour which made it stand out from standard burgers you get anywhere else. Chips were cooked well, seasoned properly, no complaints. Beef Wellington was fantastic. Cooked to a perfect medium rare, and pastry was not burnt like in some of the previous review photos. Another note, is they cut it in half when plating, so you know it's done right as soon as you get it. The mash it came with tasted amazing, very cheesy, almost like garlic bread. Veggies done right. Give this place a chance, your experience may be like mine"

"Had a fabulous meal here last night, the beef cheeks were melt in your mouth delicious, along with the chicken wing entree. Just the right amount of service with all our needs taken care of without being intrusive. Would definitely recommend and will be return customers!!"

"My partner and I had such a wonderful time at Wholly Smoked! The food was absolutely amazing — the Beef Wellington was a standout and truly melt-in-your-mouth perfection. Every bite was full of flavour and cooked beautifully. What really impressed us was how flexible and accommodating the team were. Even though the Beef Wellington is usually part of the dinner menu, they kindly prepared it for us during breakfast, which we really appreciated. It made the experience even more special. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. We were celebrating my partner’s birthday, and they went above and beyond to surprise us with dessert — the churros were so delicious and such a thoughtful touch. Ice coffee was so refreshing! Overall, it was a fantastic experience with great food, outstanding service, and a lovely atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend."

"The eggs bene with brisket is out of this world good! I also requested a Bloody Mary and they made it no problem, it was also delicious. My partner had the big farmers breakfast and added egg and hollandaise, he said it was the best breakfast he has had on our trip! The service and friendly staff also make this place a big win for us! Highly recommend!!"

"FINE dining at reasonable prices in a comfortable atmosphere. The food was amazing — unique menu (we had green mussels, pork belly, and the dish of the day), delicious flavors, expertly prepared and beautifully plated. Happy hour provided. The staff was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!"
