Kaikoura Seafood Bbq

Tasty, fresh seafood with friendly, quick service and a great view. Highly recommended.

Their crayfish is awesome, fresh and taste really good! Just a simple crayfish and prawn will be enough for us to enjoy our day in Kaikoura. Unfortunately they're service is not as good as their seafood. Taken 30 minutes or so to wait, and it's pretty common that they forget our orders, so let's add another 10 to 15 minutes.

Excellent food!!!! Everything was fresh and the butter sauce was D E L I C I O U S!!! Seafood platter is a must try value for money! $58 for huge plate. Seafood chowder was cheap and good. Crayfish was delicious, bought the $154 NZD one which was huge!!! Tip: there is meat in the legs of the crayfish too so don’t just eat the body! Really dig in!!! The place closes before 5pm though so do come early!

First time trying as I saw the reviews is good.Its a takeaway option on a rainy day. We went there on a rainy day so atmosphere is Neutral. We ordered takeout and eat in car. No half crayfish i s available so I ordered BBQ crayfish tail and it comes with rice and salad. Crayfish is so fresh and juicy. Nice amount of saltiness and its not dry as their cooking method is accurate to keep the moisture in before BBQ it. BBQ Crayfish tail cost 59 NZD (imo the portion is worth it and its good) and i ordered a seafood chowder for 8 NZD. For budget wise at least try their seafood chowder its really good. Full of fresh stuffs in there unlike any other chowder.

This place has really tasty grilled seafood. You can select the crayfish you want from the tub and they grill it in garlic butter. Very fast service and super delicious.
