Reviews of Little Savanna
I.
Such a pleasant surprise! We didn't know about this place and saw it driving by. The meat platter was incredibly delicious Chicken wings, steak and ribs, all prepared in a different way with 2 different sauces on the side, keeping your taste buds excited all the way through. Excellent service, beating any expectations. Incredible attention to detail. The atmosphere and decor definitely add to the experience. Even the bathrooms are stunning and have small rolled up cotton towels for drying your hands - a little bit of luxury. If you want to feel a bit spoilt and have a special dining out experience, this is the place for sure. We look forward to going back again to try other items from the menu ☺️
W.
Wife's Mediterranean veggie grilled sandwich was outstanding. My bunny chow had great flavor and plenty of meat but unfortunately fell short in the spicy heat department and was more like a flavourful Stew. Not a good old Durban bunny for sure! However great location, vibe and service were excellent. Will be going back for sure.
N.
My partner and I went for an early dinner on the 22 Oct 2021.
Our server, Alex, was very charismatic, spoke clearly with a mask on and was very informative as well.
We had ordered four drinks, two mains, a starter and one dessert. Everything came out very fast but we did not fell rushed at all and we were shocked that it was still so early when we left, very time efficient.
Excellent service, shall definitely go back in future and recommend to friends and family.
C.
This place is so good. The food was amazingly delicious. Loved them. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this place.
Y.
Great tasty and healthy food, also the staff was very friendly and accommodating...
We had mocktails and fish of the day dish for adults and pasta of the day for kids. All of us loved our food and drinks. We will visit there again.
Q.
This is my third visit here and I can truly say that probably third time lucky....I am more than happy with a very pleasant dining experience, we decided on the meat platter, salads and spinach. The best experience to date by far. The service we received from Lesley was exceptional, food quality and portions appropriate. I would highly recommend Little Savannah and yes they will see us again more often.
H.
what an awesome place, service superb, food superb , atmosphere great. my nr 1 restuarant
A.
Me and my partner came here for Valentine’s Day and WOW. Not only is the food absolutely amazing the service is incredible. We both left with full bellies and delighted taste buds. The menu may be pricey but it is SOOOOO worth it. Our server was Hannah and she was absolutely delightful. Best experience Little Savannah brings. If you and your significant other want to treat yourselves this is the place for it !
M.
It was our third time here. Nice food as usual but disappointing service this time. The guy looked impatient when I said"pardon" as I didn't hear clearly when he said our server would be Lucy. We have not booked the table in advance and we knew it would be busy on Saturday night but we were arranged the first table close to the main door even we arrived very early. The guy said it was the only option. Yes we had to enjoy the wind as long as we had the steak. There were still some tables available when we finished. BTW, one hair was found in the salad.
H.
Drinks 12/10 awesome cocktails
Atmosphere: 10/10 great place
Service 12/10! Couldn’t ask for better staff!
Food 3/10 we received a burger which was incredible dry and took a large time to arrive( we did have a large group so understood) we also ordered the pasta which was chicken and peppers. A store bought pasta sauce and overcooked pasta would have tasted better. Was a bit disappointing as it was a birthday dinner and burger and pasta were both pretty subpar.
S.
We visited last night and had such a great time. The hostess was so lovely and accommodating. The food and drinks were so good. There was a mistake with the order but the restaurant went above and beyond to fix it. Overall such a great experience and I'd highly recommend!
C.
OMG I see what everyone raves about. It was by far the best meal I have had in years.
I recommend this place 110%.
M.
Margie(?) was very good in trying to arrange a table for me and a mate duly followed up with an upgrade to our booking. Staff were excellent as was the food and service. Though we may have out stayed our custom the team were very accommodating and patient! Top place! Mark & Mike
B.
My friends and I came in just before Christmas for dinner, I’d never been to Little Savanna before. The service, food and atmosphere was all completely faultless. Leslie, our waiter, was fantastic and all the staff were so professional, friendly and attentive. Will definitely be back, thanks for the fantastic dining experience.
S.
This place is absolutely fabulous, we loved every moment of it. Grace was our waitress for the night who was in training and she did an outstanding job. We were out for a 90th and she arranged for the team to sing Happy birthday to my Nan. They brought out the retirees menu which is fantastic as they serve very good portions for their mains so this was enough for the older ones with us. Good quality food for the price! Everyone was lovely. Will definitely be back and highly recommend.
J.
Lovely service, beautiful food ! We got the mixed combo of steak and ribs
M.
My first time eating in Palmerston North and it was wonderful! Had the loveliest waiter who was very polite and knowledgeable. Big portion sizes, I could not finish it all despite how tasty it was. I ordered the steak and the Belgian semifreddo. Well worth it for the price and service!
J.
Tonight was our second outing to Little Savanna, both occasions were perfect! The food is absolutely amazing, shot out to the chefs and our waiter Kerry 👌 ….you know the food is good when the chef takes a photo of your T-Bone when he’s plating it up!
C.
Great atmosphere and tasty food .prices aren't bad either! Ostrich steak pictured. 🤤
B.
UNFORGETTABLE! Friendly staff. Amazing memory to the specials. Self awareness. We absolutely loved the ambience and our dining experience here. Everything cooked too perfection. I'll / we'll be back. Thank you x
C.
My partner and I have enjoyed dinner at Little Savanah on several occasions now and we have never had a bad experience. The staff are always top notch and seem to go above and beyond to ensure we have a great evening. The food is always delicious and the atmosphere lively and welcoming. Highly recommend this restaurant for a very enjoyable dining experience.
We look forward to our next visit! Keep up the great guys 👍
T.
We shared a great night with friends to celebrate a birthday. The food was fabulous and very well priced. A special thanks to our waitress who was friendly, communicative and nothing was a problem. Thanks to all the staff for a special night.
P.
Cannot recommend this place enough! The service is wonderful - great food and an amazing atmosphere! Lovely staff and friendly owners. I would give more than 5 stars if I could!!
N.
Stunningly good food. Not cheap but not expensive. The meals are appropriately priced for what you get. The service is superb. Great Selection for the Menu. Thanks Amenda for the great service!!
G.
Last evening 12th March I celebrated my birthday with 11friends and I just need to let you know what an amazing night we shared at LS.
The food was superb but the staff and safe environment was even greater. Not once did we feel nervous of the Covid that is apparently rampant in our city and it was such a positive place to be having fun and food with our host Margie and her amazing team. Thank you and we will return very soon 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥂
K.
We drove in from out of town and had our first experience at Little Savanna's last night. It did not disappoint! The restaurant had a relaxing atmosphere and the staff were fantastic. Our waiter answered all our questions about the menu and enjoyed discussing beers with my husband. Our food was delicious and presented so beautifully even my 12 year old Son was impressed! We can't wait to come back! Thank you!
D.
I haven't done a review for a while, but done a 300-Km return trip for this one and catch up with friends. Place was packed (humming) when we arrived a little early, fortunately we had booked earlier. On arrival we were warmly greeted at the door and promptly shown to our table. As the night went on you soon realise the staff are amazing and genuine and add to the positive mood of the place. There was a good selection on the menu for most taste, with the steaks being the favourite at our table. I ordered the Sirloin medium rare and it came out perfectly with some good charring (flavour packed), I selected the blue cheese compound butter on top and yes this was a steak to remember. Everyone else at the table thoroughly enjoyed their meals and we were commenting amongst the table the food was amazing and on the mark. Food came out promptly from the kitchen, no one left waiting.
There are children's menu's (options) on request.
There was a good selection of drinks to suite (Beer, Wine, Cocktails and Juice), it is my understanding that tea and coffee were also available when we asked staff.
Entrance is wheelchair friendly and although it was packed a wheelchair could come in and be seated at table.
There is an area off to the side for smokers with high tables for drinks and to eat, note wheelchair accessible from the inside due to step on the outside.
Parking is on the street generally (plenty on Broadway Road and Princess Street) so even if it was raining it's only a small walk with some cover, if you are lucky there may be some carparks off to the side of building.
Facilities / Amenities were kept clean, tidy (towels, hand driers and lotion)
Place excepts cash or card payment.
Price wise you pay for what you get, and what you get is great food, great service. Starters around $10, mains $40 - $50 (Steak) and dessert $17 I would loved to have tried the pork belly but I was restricted this visit so maybe next time.
All said and done, I honestly am grateful that I drove 300-Km for a meal here with good friends the food and service here are without question I encourage people to visit and support this restaurant because I hope it is around for many years to come. I will definitely make another trip up and eat here again in the near future it was awesome.
R.
Great service and friendly staff. Got the 200g hanging steak coated with butter, was absolutely amazing! Partner got the combo ribs with eye fillet instead of sirloin and both of them were cooked to perfection. The gin martini was the best so I'm told and the passion fruit and pineapple daiquiri was amazing. Definitely looking forward to going again.
M.
Wow, can not recommend this place enough. If you are in Palmerston North you must eat here, I went for dinner on Sunday and again on Monday. What a great place, lovely staff found us a table quickly both nights even though we didn’t have reservations and it was busy both nights. The food was delicious had the pasta and the burger, good portions well worth it. I’ll eat here every time I’m down that way
J.
This is hospitality done the right way! From the moment we entered we felt welcome and were greeted in a friendly manner. The young man who was the host for the evening was very very good and certainly knows how to look after people. Our server Alex was as others have pointed out was present but not to present which was great. The food was great and my steak was cooked very well. My wife grabbed the espetada and was impressed by the flavour. We both grabbed the Belgian dark chocolate semifreddo for dessert. They added a candle to mine as it was my birthday, again more great attention to detail. You can't go wrong with a chocolate dessert right? Overall I can see why you need to book to visit this restaurant! Keep up the great service!
K.
I had a fillet cut and it was the best steak I have ever eaten. It was buttery to chew through and cooked perfect medium rare. Portion size was good too. The service was also great.
J.
Very impressed with the service.
Selfless and considerate - you made my Dads day. Felt like we got great value for money as well as a lovely experience
Well done, especially in hard times, much appreciated.
Q.
Been here a few times for drinks and meals. Outstanding, friendly service and high quality food every single time I've been. Definitely one of the best stops in Palmy
A.
Little Savanna is an amazing place to eat. The prices are reasonable, the space is well lit and there is a good space between each table. The staff are extremely friendly, quick to help and happy to have a conversation. You're never left sitting for too long, and the wait times for food are short to the point where you barely notice you're waiting. The drinks are well mixed and priced. The food is beautifully cooked, with the steak and the ribs practically falling apart. The onion rings were crispy but moist. They even provided a hot towel for your hands with the ribs. I would definitely go again, and on a very regular basis.
A.
High class restaurant that had great service and wonderful food. Staff were attentive and helpful. We were the last in the restaurant but did not feel rushed at all. One at our table had a problem with his steak but the manager was very helpful and did their best to sort out the issue at the end of the evening. Highly recommend.
M.
One of the best place to eat. Amazing atmosphere. Very delicious meal, kudos to the chefs. Very friendly staff. Would be a go to place for an amazing dinning.
M.
Came in with my sibling for a meal and a few drinks on Tuesday night, fantastic service from start to finish, meals came quickly and were absolutely superb! Can definitely see myself being back often!
J.
Excellent meal, and a really good atmosphere. Hats off to all the staff, who I found to be very pleasant and happy to help. I had the Beef Espetada and it was delicious. Just make sure you remove some chips or the bowl from under the meat before you try sliding the meat off the skewer. Totally worth going for.
T.
Went here with a group of 10 for a graduation dinner. The food was absolutely sublime. Everyone loved their meals. The cocktails were just amazing and can I just say, we consumed a LOT of different ones! Our waiter, Shima was professional and engaged with us all night and enjoyed our humour... This was my second visit here, I will be back. The whole atmosphere was great as was the music. We all had a brilliant night!

Today I went to Little Savanna for lunch, it was very delicious 🤤, excellent table service
I ordered
- Calamari Rings
- BBQ Chicken Wings
- Pork Belly Flatbread
_ Pork Belly (main)
Pork belly was nice and soft and very crispy crackling , who doesn’t like a great crackle 😂😂
The sauces for the wings and calamari was excellent very impressed. Would 100% recommend and go back 😊
E.
Fabulous service. Delicious food. Steak was devine. Also loved the cocktail "That time I was in Thailand"! Yummy. Great place for a birthday meal too.❤️😋
G.
Absolutely love this place heard so much about it beautiful cooked meat I had the calamari steak and baby back ribs the meat just fell off and the steak was cooked to perfection and the sorbet and fruit my friend had the garlic bread and t bone steak and apple cigar delicious desserts and rugby in front of the fire two very happy and full guys 😋😀
A.
Our waitress was amazing !! The food was great and well presented . Good selection of beer, wine, cocktails and spirits. Dinner took a while to come out and one entree we were committed to sold out but thats life just a sign of a busy establishment on their busiest night so no biggie. mix up at the bar meant a drink never arrived nothing major all made right by an excellent whiskey sour. Actually had a dessert for a change and it was honestly one of the top 5 desserts I have ever had . Good decor and vibe to the place was a very nice place to have a birthday dinner. Highly reccomened
D.
Dropped in quite by chance and had a burger with green peppercorn sauce on the side. I was absolutely blown away by the burger. It really doesn't need any other sauce. It's a perfect creation on its own but the sauce was top notch anyway... I had to try it seeing as I had it on the plate. I would comfortably rate this as the best burger on the North Island.
My wife had the peri peri chicken but although the sauce had the right flavour profile, it had no heat.... Which is very disappointing for a peri peri. Please introduce some heat options.
Otherwise, excellent service. Absolutely worth a drive up from Wellington!!!! Great restaurant.
R.
Another lovely meal we had at Little Savanna, great staff, very welcoming and attentive. Looking forward to our next time in Palmy to definately come back again.
R.
The meals were cooked well but it lacked any form of wow or flavour.. Not one meal at our table of 5 had any of us thinking we couldn't have cooked something better at home. Bit disappointing consider the price of the meals
K.
Nice atmosphere, super friendly staff and managers, huge chips, and generous portion overall. My favorite is the ribs (dinner menu only). Their espetada is also unique. Clean toilets too. Easy to reserve a table too. You will get a confirmation email about your booking too, so it's very handy in case you forget the booking details.
J.
Went there for my birthday tea and was very impressed from the time we entered the restaurant to the time we left. Our server Kerry was outstanding, friendly, amicable and very helpful. We will definitely go back and highly recommend Little Savanah.
L.
What a great surprise! Exceptional service and hospitality. Attentive waitress and very knowledgeable, forward thinking sommelier-waiter (Carey?) who took the time and effort to really make sure we each had wine that matched our respective orders and personal tastes. I haven’t been attended to SO well in Palmerston North for a long long time and so this dining experience was a breath of fresh air.
My mother ordered the fish of the day - snapper - which was cooked to perfection and exquisitely presented. She declared (at the knowledgeable age of 76) that it was the best snapper she had ever had in her entire life. As it was a birthday celebration, this brought me great joy to hear!
My seasonal vegetables, creamed spinach and sides were beautifully done - not an afterthought at all.
We also appreciated the moderate level of noise (the music was low and varied enough to enjoy discussion), the roaring fireplace, ambient lighting and convivial atmosphere.
The only fault in the experience was the interaction with the Manager, who could have done a much better job at letting us know when the sitting had finished. He would do well to learn from the finesse and presence of his junior staff.
R.
Not too bad #impressed. The food is righteous👍Atmosphere A+ Staff & cooks primo👌. It's not easy running a kitchen so appreciate the hard work that goes into it. Thank you for a sublime exsperience A+++
PS: can something be done about the serving wooden platters as it was a tad off putting when i noticed knife marks from previous users on my platter...just a thought😁
S.
Food is always so good everytime I dine here. We've been lucky enough to always get a seat even without making a booking. Cocktails are delicious, staff are awesome and we've found the specials are always worth trying.
J.
I lost count of how many times staff came up to help while I was waiting for my takeout. Really good service. I think this place is really all about the meat. Can't lose in Palmy serving up chunky meats
J.
A very impressive restaurant delightful staff who provided great service. Would recommend your restaurant and intended to call again when in Palmerston North.
S.
Loved the atmosphere, loved the food.
Had to wait for quite a long time but thankfully it was worth the wait 😋
K.
The place and atmosphere is very nice! Had a set menu of entrée, main n dessert. The food was not bad!
D.
Not a bad night out with my work mates..
Place was busy, everyone seemed happy with their meals. I couldn't eat all of mine, good sized serving.
m.
Love the food, staff are friendly and amazing, all round great place to dine in and enjoy the food and atmosphere. Definitely a 5 star rating from me if had more stars they would be getting them.
D.
A taste of Africa. An upmarket place ideal for romantic dinner or a group party. Be sure to book in advance as it is a popular place. Worth the wait for the food though. A little different menu to be adventurous but tame enough for the less adventurous palate. Nice bar facilities. Open flame grill.
j.
My time at lil sav
Don’t think I could say anything but fantastic it was unbelievable the music the atmosphere was splendid
The wait staff was so kind and welcoming
I had the scotch fillets and it was out of this world cook to perfection the cocktails we had was ridiculous So tasty overall a perfect night
If I could come back here every night for dinner I would that’s why I give this place a 5 star
K.
Great restaurant, fantastic food and the service was 11 out of 10 we'll definitely be back. Mum had a beautiful birthday thanks Little Savanna for making her feel so special on her 85th birthday 🎂 and Alex for great service ❤
J.
Great service and food! We love going there on their last open night before Christmas. Felt well looked after.
S.
Great sized meals and wonderful service. Great job Kerry we had all we wanted and loved the story behind Little Savanna.
Meat lovers will be able to select from many carnivorous options.
T.
I have been to Little Savanna a few times, so it was a no-brainer to have my 30th there with some family. The food is delicious, the staff are always incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and professional, and the mood is always just right. We had a large table, and the staff were easily able to accommodate a highchair for us with a little notice beforehand. Thank you for yet another wonderful dining experience!
S.
The food was really great: fresh ingredients, cooked to tasty perfection. The service was outstanding, too - we'll be back!
F.
Little Savanna is a must visit restaurant. You will need to book as most sittings a very busy. For my wife's birthday we booked for lunch. The lady on the phone was polite and made a point of getting my name correct.
We arrived slightly early but were promptly seated and attended to. The service was first rate and the young man made us feel welcome and didn't harry us to order. He took drinks orders and gave us some time to view the menu. We all ordered mains and waited for them to arrive. We were lucky the place wasn't packed and our mains arrived in a reasonable amount of time.
I ordered the Espetada, 250g of kewered Sirloin steak served suspended above your plate. I had no idea how to go about removing the meat but the service staff offered the appropriate procedure. Cooked on the pink side ( this was the recommended choice) and it was delicious.
The really good thing about this birthday treat is my wife expressed a desire to return to try other delicacies on the menu.
If you have room to squeeze in a dessert do so. My son and I managed and I'm not sure how, to pack in the Belgian waffles. Light and fluffy with a topping of cream and ice cream with a miniature jug of maple syrup. My wife attempted the Brulee.
Friendly staff, great leather aprons. African themed.
More than happy to recommend this restaurant and will be back again.
There is plenty of parking close at hand. Make sure you book.
j.
Four years I a row we have been here for our work Christmas function , all the staff just want to go back there again .
Excellent Service , excellent food great place to eat out at . Highly recommended.
T.
Really good dining experience! Very spacious enviroment. Courteous, efficient and well presented staff.
Large selection of drinks on offer as well as food options
Fast service and the food was very good. Would definitely recommend
T.
Been here a few times now, always had excellent service! Food is great as are the cocktails.
J.
Absolutely amazing food just wow!! The atmosphere was great too and the staff super friendly
a.
Had a lovely meal, loved the ambiance and lots of people kn, definately a popular place. Staff sing happy birthday to people.
J.
Excellent food and atmosphere. African food done well. I’ve had a few burgers in my life around the world and this is the best. They even ask you how you want your pattie cooked. Delicious
M.
I've been here twice now and the restaurant never fails to deliver. Food is really yummy. Try their roast lamb. It's very tasty. Steak is perfectly cooked. Truly one of the best restaurants in Palmy. :)
P.
Excellent food and our host Christian tonight was very friendly, attentive and efficient. The ostrich in particular was fantastic, so was the brulee 👌🏻
C.
The set up is good here. Good atmosphere with a laid back and casual vibe. Service was also good though our server tried to remember everyones order and had to confirm the order a few times - we came with 7 people, not sure why he didn’t just write it down.
I got the Espetada and came out cooked how I liked, potatoes were a bit average though and had me wishing I got the chips instead, but overall was a good meal. Desserts are pricey $14 for the size, probably not worth it unless you really want dessert.
M.
Fantastic food, coming out real fast, great test. Staff are really good. Nice done up.
S.
As per my friends reviews below, I also would like to add to our experience.
6 of us dined at Little Savannah last night. We initially ordered drinks and they were delicious. We then ordered the flatbreads and olives as an entree. The flatbreads came out and one was wrong. The waiter who took our order knew immediately the issue and said we could have the wrong flatbreads on the house and he would bring the other bread and olives soon which we thought was nice.
We then received our meals. Two friends got the lamb and they loved it, one got the pork belly which she also loved. I got the eye fillet steak which was ok. I asked for medium, and while it looked medium, it tasted dry which was disappointing. Also, the menu stated onion rings, but it was more a small pile of what I consider onion garnish. These are small issues I realise, but when you are paying over $40 for a steak; it better be amazing.
Sadly, the evening turned to a sour note when my other friend tried to eat her burger. She had asked for it to be cooked well done, but it was soo overcooked, it was inedible. It was charred and crumbled when you tried to eat it. She raised her concerns to the waitress who was very sympathetic and said she would go away to talk to someone. She came back and said the chef had tried it and agreed. Then Jaimie came to the table, stood very close and over my friend and said “Tell me what was wrong with your meal” she explained and he said that he could offer her a free dessert. I then said that no, we won’t be eating dessert here, it will be too long a wait for her to get another main, so I think it’s best she doesn’t get charged for her meal. He then said “We can take off the $26. What’s $26 when you make $20k a night”. We were all shocked. While he listened and resolved the issue, the manner in which he did it was devoid of any warmth and frankly felt intimidating. He did not need to say “tell me what was wrong” when the waitress had already acknowledged the chef had tried the burger and agreed it was inedible. He did not need to stand over my friend, he should have got down on her level to speak to her, and he did not need to drop that they make so much so technically who cares about your little complaint.
Neither of us will be dining there again. I suggest more effort is put in to effective customer complaint resolution. Namely, learning to treat your customers complaints with dignity and respect.
Edit. My friend who made the booking received a call from the owner and the owner has very generously sent vouchers for us to dine there again. She also listened to my friends concerns. This is above and beyond to rectify the situation and is much appreciated. While we probably won’t go back again, we appreciate the aftercare. I still however, stand by my review, that Jamie needs to either spend more time learning how to deal with complaints effectively or get someone else to handle them.
W.
Very tasty food, good drinks selection, friendly and confident staff. I would definitely return
C.
Great food and drinks. Lovely wait staff
P.
Wow, this has got to be one of the true 5 star restaurants for casual yet high quality delicious food. Seriously you have to try this food. The layout, the atmosphere, the staff creates the most perfect night out in Palmerston North.
S.
Fantastic place for dinner, the atmosphere was wonderful and the restaurant quite quiet, despite being reasonably full, so we could actually talk at a normal volume. We ordered the ribs to share between 2 with a side of sweet potato wedges. On the pricy side, but it filled us both up. Ribs were incredible as were the wedges, which are apparently made with sweet potatoes from South Africa! Excellent service from Stafford, would definitely go back.
A.
Yummiest steaks with so much flavor and such good service. Good music in the bar, lovely toilets. Whole place is so worth it. Will definitely be back 😍
P.
This restaurant is the "Gold Standard" all others aspire to.. service superb, staff super friendly, the food amazing.. we are many time visitors.. and will be back ..
A.
Lil savanna by far the best place to eat out in palmy.
Can’t believe the food and the wait staff outstanding
Love it all round fantastic
I.
Had the steak and ribs combo which was fantastic. Was busy for a tuesday night and slightly noisy with 2 or 3 birthday dinners there at the same time
A.
Great place - nice setting, courtyard was cosy. Friendly helpful wait staff. Calamari and peri peri chicken were excellent, didn’t try steaks but liked good. Also the hanging mains looks great! Tried the malva pudding for first time which was delicious, Id have that again. Would come back for sure. Maybe ostrich next time!
S.
Great food, great service and a good atmosphere. A little pricey, but well worth it!
L.
Beautiful food, 5 star service from our wonderful waiteress, highly recommended and definitely be back and will spread the word to friends and family in Wellington, thank you so much❤
T.
Had such an amazing experience tonight thanks to our waiter Kerry always made sure we were looked after explained every questioned asked from any of our group the meals 😋 omg were amazing everyone of us loved our meals thank you to the chef absolutely wonderful overall we all loved it service was exceptional thank you will sure be back 🥰 happy group of 7 😊
B.
Delicious meals and options, a little on the pricey side in Palmy, but definitely getting quality food in return.
Attentive, well trained staff with good banter, were served by Rebecca initially and then Kendall after she finished.
Will definitely return again.
K.
The food is great except the wait time is a bit too long. You definitely need to take some snacks if you have children. The place is very clean, even the toilet is upto a standard. Lovely place to chill out if you are having a cruizy night with mates but definitely not a family place for dinner with kids.
G.
Very amazingly delicious and happy enjoyable friendly staff and so yummie food. Great place to go booking for the next time.

Fabulous. Superb food but decent portion sizes proving just because it’s good doesn’t have to be tiny! We were a late booking and they squeezed us in,so glad they did. It was heaving but the wait staff were highly professional. Thanks Kerry. That spiced espresso tini was sublime.
Q.
Went there for our department year end lunch. Loved the fact that you can book online as well as pre order. Staff are super friendly and remembers your name and order. The flatbread starters were very nice and flavoursome, fresh and warm too. I tried the Bunny chow aka beef bourguignon. The flavour gets a 9, presentation 9, however I feel there could be more mmeat and sauce in the bread roll. A Bunny chow is a curry in a half or quarter loaf bread, so love the concept of a bunny chow but would have like a bit more filling in the bread roll. Malva pudding was done pretty good, so will reccomend you try one.
A.
The food was amazing, and the drinks too, however there was a wait to order food and our drinks took a while to arrive. Will definitely come back and try again though!
d.
Great meals always enjoy going here. Great for special occasions or just a night off cooking

P$%n star cocktail and exquisite food 👌 highly recommended

The food is really tasty, great atmosphere and host. Would definitely return again!

Have been to Little Savanna many times and every time the food is totally on par. We went last night for our daughters birthday (5th August), I had 6 cupcakes as her birthday cake and the staff took them away ready to bring them out at dessert time unbeknown to her. Turns out there were MANY birthday folk yesterday and the staff enthusiastically sung Happy Birthday to each one, we counted eight times! Kudos to the staff, it was a busy night; our waitress, Hannah, had just started and she was awesome. Timing was perfect for our daughter's cupcakes - thanks Little Savanna team, you do great work :)
g.
Food and service was amazing. Will definitely be coming back. Took my little girl on a dinner date here and even though no kids option, she loved the food. The waitress was really nice, super friendly as was all the other staff. A must visit again.
M.
Fantastic food and absolute 1st class service. Highly recommended.
P.
Turned up with a friend at the last minute wanting dinner before a show and were blown away! The food was amazing and the service was fantastic. A particular highlight was the rosewater and pink pepper brulée. Would thoroughly recommend.
r.
A great little restaurant. I will return.a very palatable lunch .forget about the bread it is like concrete but maybe that's the African way.
C.
A little on the expensive side but the good was delicious and well cooked. Atmosphere was reasonable and staff were very nice.
A.
First time there with friends. Meals were really delicious. Atmosphere & staff awesome
C.
Beef amazing! Service outstanding (very well trained) Quite the find and a gem to have in Palmerston North. What ever the owner is doing, keep doing it! It's working. Very happy customers.
R.
Been to the Little Savanna twice now, once for lunch with my family (loved it) so I came back for my 18th Birthday a few weeks ago with all my friends. BEST BREADS AND COCKTAILS I'VE EVER HAD. Great customer service all the staff are super friendly and the food was delicious, I also ordered a cake as part of my birthday and it was beautiful and so much bigger than I expected and all the staff came out to sing happy birthday when they brought it out which was such a cool surprise!! Great value for money and have such a good variety, will definitely be back :)
A.
Amazing service and food. Had a lovely time with the Dads for Fathers day. This desert should win the paddock to plate award it is divine.
L.
Waitress waa very patient with elderly people in our group. Food took quite a while to come out. Not a huge amount of choice or variety on the menu but I enjoyed my meal. Would have been nicer with a bit more if the salad had been less like a garnish.and more like a proper salad/side dish. Would give it another go.
D.
Amazing place! Super tasty food, even for vegetarians. Totally recommend
S.
Had a great time, yummy food and really good service. Cheers
K.
Great atmosphere. Great food. The flatbreads were yum and a great way to start.
A.
Super busy place in town. Perfect meals. A bit pricey. But will recommend if celebration is on. Pork belly was well cooked. Nice selection of drinks.
J.
Meal was great, but staff were outstanding! Thank you to all staff on duty 30/1 around 2pm.

Great food and awesome atmosphere.

Great food and excellent service. Staff are very attentive and friendly.

Went to Little Savanna for the first time last night for a work do, after hearing some rave reviews about it. Was not disappointed, the food was awesome, but just as important if not more so the service was the best I have experienced in a very long time.
Our waitress George was AMAZING, faultless, attentive, friendly, incredible memory - when I swapped seats and then ran out of wine in my glass she grabbed by (mini!!) bottle from my original seat and topped me up. She was a credit to the restaurant, as were all the friendly staff, so well done.
I will definitely be returning with my husband.
J.
Great atmosphere, loved the layout. . Service and food was outstanding... would definitely go to the again
B.
Lovely food and staff :) 9/10. Only thing to mention is not enough butter with the streak. But everything was lovely :)
S.
This was the first time to Savanna, all I can say is hats of to Jamie Holmes and rhe team, awesome job well done
N.
Fantastic meal and excellent service.. Totally recommend
J.
Food was delicious. Everyone had same quality even though it was a very large group.
M.
Fantastic service wonderful food (with flavours from throughout Africa). Our waiter was knowledgeable of the menu and beverages, responding to questions in conversation rather than rote and mechanically. We sat across from the kitchen and all staff were attentive to detail for each plate. We didn't feel rushed and it made for a great evening out. Unfortunately it can be hard to get a table, so it is highly advisable to check availability online before booking... definitely worth it.
J.
Our waitress was lovely and the food was nice it is just a shame we had to wait for over an hour for it. We had a reserve so they were expecting us. In the end my sister had to eat her food fast to be able to catch her bus to Wellington. And we were told by them we had to out by a certain time which we found rude since we were felt waiting so long for our food.
R.
Great food. Pricey but worth it in my opinion. Been twice now and food each time was impeccable. I honestly think they have the best wait staff here. Brian was perfect. Quick, checked up but didn't intrude. Seemed to appear just as we wanted him. Will definitely be back.
C.
First time diner and I wasn't sure what to expect! Can definitely say expectations were hit out of the ball park with this gem! The food was amazing! Cooked to perfection. Also have to mention the wait staff, they are a credit to your business. Just a great experience. Thank you 😁
K.
My family and I are from Tauranga and just came here on a road trip.
We found this restaurant and found all reviews to be quite good so decided to try it.
I got the T-bone steak, and was absolutely amazed with how good it was. A little long on the wait, but when the food came, it was all worth it!! The waiters and chefs were exceptional and really nice as well.
Thanks for the great experience! And if we're ever back in Palmerston North, we'll definitely come back to this restaurant!
T.
Beautiful food and AMAZING cocktails. Their take out menu during level 3 lockdown is also very yummy. Our go to for special occasions.
M.
Food was really nice. Customer service was good too. Will return. Had meat platter was incredible!
S.
The food is amazing and the Dom Pedro dessert is delicious. The staff are friendly and professional and make you feel very welcome. They even have a tv playing.tje Rugby World Cup.
D.
Wow, there for a birthday dinner with friends, welcomed by awesome waiter who could not have been more helpful, food arrived promptly and was absolutely delicious 😋 would definitely highly recommend,
V.
Great service as I organised, and during our dinner. Good food, and lovely vibe.
A.
We were travelling through Palmy with limited time for dinner. The service was awesome and the food even better. A welcoming fire on a wet, cold night was a bonus. Loved everthing about Little Savannah
S.
We had a 60th birthday celebration here. Food was great and staff were terrific.
R.
The food was great and came out fast. But the wait staff were amazing very welcoming and friendly. Not to mention it was the wife's birthday dinner and the gave us a free dessert so happy wife and we know what that means lol so thank you little savanna wait staff and the happy birthday song was just the icing on the cake. We will be back to try out the steak on a stick.
A.
The waiters were helpful and they even said congratulations to our wedding anniversary
M.
I had the most amazing afternoon here today for both my birthday and the Jazz Festival. The most exceptional seafood chowder topped off with a Semi Fredo to die for. Thank you Kenny for your service and humour today you were awesome 😎
P.
Incredible evening of amazing food and some of the best service I have ever encountered. The staff were just amazing. We had 2 birthday girls in the group and a quartet of staff came and sang them Happy birthday beautifully. 5 stars isnt enough!
T.
Just called in for a quick drink and fries. Very efficient service and excellent decor ✅
M.
We had a special night there the staff the food absolutely awesome. Thanks everyone at Little Savanna
C.
Excellent food and setviceื, very cozy with the log fire in the winter months. Great interior design.
J.
The food is a bit expensive, but you get what you pay for - the food here is suuuuper yummy and the service is excellent! Got the meat platter, a variety of their flat breads, and their sweet potato wedge. Excellent place for an occasional treat! Will definitely be back for a date night at some point in the future
R.
Great service. Really good food and the price for the quality of food was fantastic. The staff are very friendly and couldn't do enough to accommodate us. Definitely recommend this place. Made our 42 wedding anniversary meals memorable.
M.
I went to little savanna for my birthday tonight and the service was phenomenal, the food was delicious , and they sung happy birthday and put a candle on my desert. My waiter was Blair and he was really nice. Food came quickly and Blair kept checking if the food and drinks were good or if we wanted more. I highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone.
Sincerely Maddie
S.
Another awesome night at what must be, if not the best, one of Palmerston Norths best restaurants
D.
Great selection of food. Great selection of drinks. Fantastic, friendly and professional waiters/waitresses, not invasive. Very nice atmosphere with big windows looking out not claustrophobic and a very nice cosy courtyard for a more intimate gathering cones with a outdoor fire heater fir those chilly nights and a fireplace indoor. Prices is slightly above average but can't complain with great food, very good portion and the service. Highly recommended to experience it yourself.
T.
Amazing service and food. Everything came out at a great time even though it was super busy. Food looked epic cant wait to go back
G.
Amazing food fab service .. what more could you ask for
W.
Popped in late (8:20ish) on a Thursday evening on the off chance that they were still serving as other places had told us their kitchens were closing.
Am so glad we tried here.
Great staff - friendly, knowledgeable, attentive - and great food.
I had the ostrich and my partner had the Espetada.
We both had severe food envy.
We will be back.
s.
Not only did the food come quickly but the service was impeccable
D.
Fantastic steaks and sides. Also love their cocktail menu!
C.
Lovely meal and lovely staff, we will be back 😊
C.
Tasty great food. The ostrich is mean as
D.
Fabulous restaurant. All our dishes were amazing and the staff were really friendly. We had a great night and would certainly come back again!
V.
Amazing restaurant!! Excellent food and exceptional service. Great evening for our whole table. Highly recommend and will definitely be back.
b.
Love little savanna! Been coming here almost every day for the past year, never disappoints!
G.
Great location. Staffpolite % attentive. Food Great.
D.
Great service and food, our new favorite place. We were able to even walk in although they were busy they did their best and gave us a table. Everyone in the kitchen and staff were happy and laughing which is a good sign. Great night every time we go which is har to find that consistency.
B.
Nice food.
Good attentive staff.
Well done
Thanks
n.
Amazing atmosphere and the pork ribs are incredible, the waffles are great but I wouldn't recommend buying them because it's annoying for the workers because they only have one waffle maker.
T.
Food and cocktails are outstanding, absolutely no gripes there. However the service can be too attentive - it feels weird to say that as I realise this is something that should be a positive rather than a negative. We were asked 4 times by 3 different people in 5 minutes if we wanted drinks - this was only one instance there were others. However overall great setting, very comfortable, lovely food and drinks.
J.
I don't give 5 star reviews. However, I had no choice here.
Waiting staff were polite and helpful without being in your face.
Layout and ambience great
I had the scotch steak and calamari combo.
The steak was superb, cooked blue, as requested, and had a superb flavour, being properly aged. Calamari cooked, but soft... not rubbery at all, and a delight to eat with the sauce. The salad and potatoes were lovely.
All in all a wonderful meal, from a great restaurant, which I will return to.
Booking definitely recommended, as they were booked out.
P.
We dined there on Thursday 8th for my husbands birthday. I would highly recommend you trying this awesome restaurant. Great service, great food. We had an awesome time. I have already recommended it to a friend and they tried it yesterday while they were in Palmerston North, and enjoyed it very much. Thank you to the management and staff.
A.
Great menu with lots of tasty dishes, excellent service from knowledgeable staff. We had a small mix up where they forgot to bring over some drinks we ordered at the end of the night. But the staff were very apologetic and the maître d made it up to us on the bill. Things go wrong all the time, it's how people make them right that shows how much they value their customers. Highly recommend 😁
h.
Great service by Leslie!! 10/10 recommend for his fantastic cocktail choices
B.
Great meal lovely friendly service very enjoyable experience
R.
Enjoyed the meal. The flavour was delish as per usual. I wish that my steak would have been in a more pink side than on the WELL side of things though. But I still think the Espetada remains my go to... It was also very busy and our meals came in very late. The server and owner was very apologetic and even gave us 2 (FREE) desserts to share to finish our meals which was greatly appreciated. we also had a mini celebration for my friends birthday. Unfortunately everyone else got sung a happy birthday around the restaurants but her.... a bit funny and also not.... overall a good night with friends and food not too bad either 😍😍😍
P.
Second time and still a bloody awesome lunch. Celebrating a 49th anniversary with a Rose, excellent food and great waiting staff; mustn’t forget those chefs. Spare ribs to share & 1 salmon dish and pork belly. This place is well worth a taste.
S.
Great service. Did not give 5 starts, unfortunately, as both the prego steak roll and bunny chow did not live up to their international acclaimed hot level of curry and spice levels. But besides that both items were tasty.
B.
Five star was for everything. Door greeting, atmosphere, menu, food presentation and the meals were perfect. 7x at our table, everyone gave 100% 👍.
The loo's were spotless.
M.
Exceptional staff and food, great place to come for a decent feed. Well worth the money. Easy 5/5
D.
Great atmosphere awesome wait staff. Beer was cold meals were delish. What more could you ask for.....I didn't give a 5 for the simple reason of my fish was a little dry but still ok. Well worth a visit
D.
Great dining and atmosphere.
Staff where awesome and helpful
D.
To be honest I dont think 5 stars does this place justice. The more stars the better. When you first walk in you you have a sense of a warm welcoming atmosphere. Almost instantly you are acknowledged and shown where you are seated.
The waiter and waitresses have amazing service and clearly enjoy their jobs and know what they are doing. The refreshing part which I loved is seeing the owner get out and about amongst the tables, cleaning and talking to guests.
The food, amazing, seriously try it, everything I've tried on the menu has been perfect everytime, including the amazing Apple Cigars for dessert. Honestly people this place is amazing. Try if you haven't and if you have, go back.
A.
A week ago we had an amazing evening at Little Savanna. The staff were absolutely attentive to our needs, including blending my dads chowder so it was a smooth consistency ( my dad has had facial surgery and can no longer chew his food).
We were blown away by the help from all staff, the meal was fantastic too
D.
Very average. Scotch fillet cooked nicely but very strange sweet sauce and creamy mushrooms tasted floury. Cocktail not authentic Singapore sling. Have had many! no cherry and also weirdly sweet.
H.
I am still here now, this isn't my first visit. The service is amazing every time, the food is delicious, the atmosphere is exactly what you want in a night out and all very affordable. Lesley is our waiter tonight and I'm blown away by attentive, helpful, knowledgeable and well mannered he is. Keep it up Little Savannah, we will definitely be back.
A.
Visited for dinner having never been here before, will definitely be going back! The food & drinks were excellent, we ordered cocktails & they were awesome! Received great service from the friendly staff as well. Thanks for a fun night 🙂
c.
Good food combined with a great atmosphere makes this my all time favorite. Book in advance as they are very popular. If you haven't been then you are missing out on a gastronomic experience.
G.
Always a pleasure dining at Little Savanna. We've been here numerous times, never leave with out a huge smile and full stomach! The staff are always friendly, tentative and personable. The owners really own the end to end customer experience, if I could give more stars I would!!
K.
Awesome atmosphere, really accommodating staff, fairly priced for the quality of food, we all had 3 course meals with no complaints & the whole Restaurant singing happy birthday to my Daughter Aaliyah was a laugh and a half, highly recommended to anyone looking for a nice evening out with great food.
M.
Wonderful food, service, and friendly staff.
Our fav resteraunt.
S.
Was a great evening with family lovely food and service.
J.
Great service. Meals cooked beautifully and left us feeling full. The strawberry daquiri was pretty good too.
D.
Amazing restaurant! Beautiful atmosphere and lighting. Very spacious with very efficient staff. Our server Joel was delightful and energetic and made us feel very welcome.
The lady who showed us to our table was also very professional and friendly. Drinks were quick to arrive. Food did take awhile but it was certainly worth the wait. It was the best food I have had in Palmerston North. The presentation and the flavours were amazing!
I can't wait to go back again! Would highly recommend!
G.
Awesome meals, fantastic customer service, nice warm atmosphere all round. Highly recommended place to go to.
A.
Booked for Special dinner with my wife. Started off well. Seated and then ordered drinks. Took nearly 1 1/2 to receive dinner. Meals were ok. Waiter saw us once in an hour to see if we needed some more drinks. Nice enough guy however. Offered free desert for the long wait but by then we were over it. Been there a few times and was great but long wait time definitely ruined a special occasion this time. More a one time average experience I would suggest.
F.
Wow first of all outstanding service! I haven’t had service like that in a long time. The food was amazing very big portions very tasty. The wait staff sang Happy birthday to the birthday girl when dessert came out and the meals were generous and delicious! We had a brilliant South African waiter who made great recommendations..
B.
Wonderful experience here tonight. Delicious food, perfect portion sizes in a
warm, professional atmosphere. A special thanks to our servers , especially Phoebe, who was knowledgeable, friendly and took particular care to ensure my young son was shown respect and treated as an individual.
J.
Great service, amazing food. We were served by Kerry who was very helpful with our special dietary needs. Try the roast lamb, it's pretty good.
M.
A great slice of Southern African cuisine. Can get very busy so booking is essential. Meat dishes feature heavily, very tasty.
A.
You can make reservations online and it makes it easy to see what times are available or left and what time you would have to be out by and is confirmed pretty much straight away. Amazing service and really enjoyed the steak Espetada, which was an experience in itself which made it extra great.
All the staff are very professional which is a great look for the restaurant. Keep up the great work with your very professional service guys, this makes word of mouth go very far.
Only negatives I can think of was having to peel my own prawns to eat, so maybe let the ladies know that is how they come out, but on a brighter note, the prawns came with a bowl and two hot wet flannels to wipe my hands and face with at the end. Also asked for 4 prawns and only got 2 but to make up for that, I got an extra prawn so I was a happy customer :)
We will def return thank you :)
D.
Brilliant service and wonderful meal's
A.
The service was awesome. They were friendly, efficient and very welcoming. We order the Pork ribs and they were massive and delicious. For the kids fish and chips. The service deserved a 5 star.
i.
I recently dined for the first time after hearing lots of good things about the gluten free options. Our waiter was knowledgeable about allergies and was able to explain how things were cooked before I even asked. I like that most meals are adaptable for allergies. The only downside was when he told us that there was a gf option for the flatbread starter which cost about $9.50 and turned out to be one piece of gf bread toasted and we still got charged that amount. The food was overall tasty other than the bread.
I also felt like the guy who came to remind us our time was up at the table (which is very clear when you book online) came geared up for an argument about it and started asking us who made the booking and telling us we should have seen the reminder at least four times during the booking process, without even waiting for us to respond to him first as we were apologetic that we hadn't noticed the time and happy to move off the table.
Adding to this since I cannot reply to the owner's response: the point is who wants gf bread (who actually likes store bought gf bread?!?) when they're told they're getting flatbread... and the price for two pieces of bread is still ridiculous. Also not sure how I could have been "discussing the booking with him" when not given the chance to open my mouth??
A.
Amazing food, huge variety if your after something different. Excellent service
W.
Excellent in all ways.First visit will go again.
A.
Delicious BBQ meats and a variety of different food. My steak was excellent (and I'm pretty fussy). It's a nice modern venue, probably the nicest place in Palmy. It’s our go-to venue for a good group meal. It’s not aiming to be silver service but the food is consistently tasty, unique and generously sized. Margie is always very welcoming and the staff are consistently good to great.
P.
Just had dinner at Little Savanna. Great service and the food was delicious. It was our 28th wedding anniversary and everyone there congratulated us and made the night feel just that little bit more special. Definitely worth a try for a nice night out.
K.
So disappointed to be asked to leave before meal was finished. Although it states online 4.45 - 7pm booking, the very slow service meant there was not enough time to complete our meal. It was very embarrassing for us and our guests and we left feeling ripped off, despite an otherwise lovely experience.
A.
Amazing service and really cool restaurant, menu was very disjointed so was hard to decide what to have. Food was yummy but portions were all over the place.
R.
Visited for lunch for a birthday.We
had a large group aged from 2 to 81.Meal was lovely and certainly no complaints from us on the meal.Kerry our waiter was friendly and made sure our elderly Dad was okay.We were conscious of time as know it was getting busy.The teenagers in our group liked the way Kerry interacted with them and though he was a cool guy.Thankyou for a great meal.You should shout Kerry a beer for for his hard work.
P.
Excellent food and very good staff. Thank you team.
G.
Great menu and meals. Would have given 5 stars but entrees and mains were very slow. Drinks were quick though. We really wanted the on bone rib eye but was not available. Disappointing since we had our hearts set on it. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.
F.
Great experience with friendly staff and amazing food. The ribs are definitely recommend along with biltong as a starter. Reminded me of home.
L.
Great food and atmosphere.
Great staff.
F.
Has an awesome dinning experience here. The ambience is amazing. Staff were very warm and welcoming and service was excellent! Food was also great. The pork ribs in particular were a hit. Being a dessert person the Belgium waffles hit the spot. Overall loved our dinning experience here. Definitely coming back😁
P.
What a great place. A gem in Palmerston North. Highly recommended and do try their fish of the day coupled with a nice white wine.
T.
Great value lunch menu. Superb Mediterranean salad with lamb, great flavours and good amount of tender lamb. Fish and chips were ok, had better, the chips could be crispier but the fish was good. We splashed out and had dessert. The waffles and ice cream were really good, but the highlight was the semifredo, be sure to let it soften before eating it as it is so much better then.
The staff were knowledgeable and friendly. They provided the perfect amount of service so you didn't feel rushed or neglected. Would definitely dine here again.
A.
Great food. Amazing atmosphere. Great staff and service. Very impressed. Highly highly recommend
D.
Had an amazing Birthday lunch today. The place is awesome. Staff fantastic...even sang Happy Birthday and my dessert a birthday shout....thank you, that made my day.
The food was delicious and cocktails yumo.
Loved this place. Recommend it that's for sure. Cheers 👍
J.
Great service and great food. Attentive staff, and a welcoming atmosphere. Will definitely be visiting again.
D.
Fabulous food and great service they were so great in making my daughter feel special on her 18th birthday
C.
The nicest meal and experience I've ever had, I got the eye fillet steak and it was beyond perfection, my partner got the pork belly and it was also perfect. Highest of recommendations.
M.
Brilliant atsomphere...great menu.... awesome staff
J.
Friendly, considerate and efficient service. Lovely meal ..good size, beautifully presented, delicious.
Meals came together. Sufficient time given between courses. Very pleasant in every way. Thank you.
S.
The food at Little Savannah is really good, but the best thing is the service. Post covid, I've been perpetually underwhelmed by restaurant service but these guys reminded me what real restaurant service is about, polished, friendly, welcoming, and most importantly understood the cadence of service needed for someone dining alone. Seriously good!
A.
Excellent food & service. Very busy restaurant for a weekday which speaks for itself. Highly recommended!
G.
Amazing place! Becky is a superb waitress and went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed and was super friendly. Even took our groups photo. We had a large table and all the dishes were served timely and with massive portions. The sweet potato wedges were out of this world and the strawberry daiquiri is a must! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a delicious dining experience. Looking forward to trying more of the menu.
L.
Amazing food, service, atmosphere. All staff were very accommodating, but our waiter Brian especially attentive. A definite must if u r in town. Will definately be back.
L.
Today was a fantastic meal .
The wait was worth it and the food was excellent.
Christian was our assistant and was pleasant and attentive to everyone's needs and has a great smile.
Compliments to the chefs
T.
Great food : Excellent staff: Very pleasant environment.
s.
Excellent welcome. We were taken in for a taste of some of the delights of Savanna.
TOP SERVICE. A couple of Coronas for 2 chilled perfectly.
Excellent food. Steak succulent cooked to perfection.2 entrees calamari and pork ribs very tasty.
Coffee and Irish (Frangelico) coffee by the warm fire a perfect end to a great evening.
Special mention of Jamie who is warm welcoming knowlegable and passionate about his work and providing a memorable experience for guests.
Very highly reccomended.☆☆☆☆☆
N.
Really amazing staff! Especially our server Georgia. Made us feel so special for my daughters 21st birthday 😊 food and surroundings were lovely too. Highly recommend!
W.
Amazing food as always. Great service and decent portions. Waiters were friendly and enthusiastic which was a plus. Would definitely recommend this restaurant for groups and families.
I.
Lovely staff and nice meal. Will be back.
N.
Had an amazing dinner at Little Savannah! The service was impeccable, the food was divine and the atmosphere was beautiful. The staff went out of their way to make our evening an unforgettable experience! Many thanks to Margie, the owner, and her team!
S.
Fantastic! Great food, our waitress Alex was awesome. Fast service. Food brilliant. Thank you for a lovely evening
T.
Steak was well cooked and tasted excellent. However sides of my two abysmally small onion rings and chips were cold and soggy. Highlighted issue to wait staff, no action taken. Overall portions were small for the price and service was definitely on the slow side.
P.
Great service and very yummy food, did I say great service! Went in on a Saturday night looking for a table for 5, got seated right away, place was busy but we still got the personal service. Look forward to going back and having some more amazing food again soon.
G.
I went there on 2nd August, to celebrate 3 birthdays in my family. My favourite was the Pork Spare Ribs. Rrrrrriiiiibbbbssss.
Mostly everyone had the pork belly meal which is popular.. Some others had the lamb rump steak, Mediterranean soup, and a couple of burgers too. So, everyone enjoyed themselves, and a good time was had by all of us.
V.
Loved the atmosphere💯,amazing T-bone meal, great service, well priced meal can't go wrong here👍👍
E.
Food was tasty, the side dishes don't live up to standard of the mains however. Loved the crime brûlée and the cocktails were nice. The side salad and veges however seemed like an afterthought on the meal. Would happily go again however
S.
A definite favourite for us, the staff, the ambience, the cocktails and the food are all outstanding. Hard to find this perfect combination anywhere, very happy to have it as our local
A.
Staff were very helpful with the menu, food was delicious...besides the wait time I can understand we have just gone back into level 1 and it was very busy as your usual friday night would be so still pleased overall with the service, food and ambiance.
R.
It's taken so long to get to Little Savanna and we weren't disappointed. The wait staff sang Happy birthday to the birthday girl when dessert came out and the meals were generous and delicious! We had a brilliant South African waiter who made great recommendations. Great atmosphere and food and you'll be seeing us again!
a.
Excellent well presented meal great customer service reasonable priced quality dining .. highly recommend
Y.
Could be the coolest bar and lunch place for steak that I ever had here
T.
Had a great experience here with awesome food. The staff were excellent
L.
Yummy food. My partner and I ended up switching meals because we liked each other's more. I had the roast lamb rump and he had the pork belly. Both were very nice. Atmosphere was awesome, very busy place but good service too. Would definately go back if we come to palmy again.
Thanks team! :)
V.
The restaurant had a nice vibe, friendly service and live music. Ordered the pork belly dish for lunch...it was beautiful.
T.
Service was great, atmosphere was awesome and food was amazing. Great place to have dinner out.

Not only did the meals present themself beautifully, they were absolutely delicious and filling. We skipped dessert and opted for a cocktails instead. I highly recommend the pina colada the ingredients tasted so fresh it was scrumptious. We were informed of the fish of the day and specials. Wait time was minimal and all of our meals came out together. Staff are friendly and energentic. Thank you to our waitress Lucy you were amazing and made is feel so welcome.
J.
Great food great service. Hannah, who served us, was awesome.
M.
I'd rate everything as about average, but still trying to figure out why they can get away with charging more? The burger was OK, but the bun was quite dry. Onion rings were good but chips were average. The steak was good. Definitely understaffed. The opportunity to tip was provided a few times, so we felt like it was expected.
L.
Good service with delicious food
J.
We had a reservation this evening, lady who greeted us was pleasant. Our waitress Charlotte knew her menu well,was attentive to us.our courses were delicious and very reasonably priced. Drinks always being offered. We will return and will let others know about this lovely restaurant.
b.
It was my first time here, we dined in tonight to celebrate my sons 20th birthday, I ordered the lamb Rump dish and the dessert special , our waiter was very nice and explained the menu well, I recommend this place highly, beautiful food, and top service, look forward to my next visit
J.
Good food, great service
D.
Yum. So good. Food came out so fast and hot.
A.
Wow! Hands down the best service I’ve experienced, and the food was nearly as good! Michael is the gold standard of service, and deserves every praise.
Top marks all around and can’t recommend enough to others wanting to engage in some evening pleasantries! 12/10 would eat again.
K.
We walked in off the street with no booking and was warmly welcomed. Our waitress Rebecca was beyond amazing. Genuine and caring to all the patrons. Great recommendations given by her, Mains we had the 700gm Rump (shared dish). Big portion sizes and oh so tasty. Compliments to the chef coz we ate EVERYTHING. Our first time to Palmy, highly recommend this place and it has a great ambiance. Going back to try LUNCH!.
J.
Had an amazing night, great service, great food, and just a great place
K.
Tried ostrich for the first time and it was so worth it. The meat was succulent and well made. The daiquiri was yummy too. Husband and I both enjoyed our meals. The service was great. Thanks
G.
Lovely food. Thoughtful presentation. Being gf with other food allergies, the wait staff were very attentive and came up with a number of options for me. I settled on the fish of the day, and was a little disappointed in my serving size. Just because I can't eat potatoes, it doesn't mean that I want a smaller serving. This was assuaged somewhat by the seasonings added to the fish. The dish was beautiful.
For a restaurant with the reputation of being the second most expensive restaurant in Palmerston North, I did expect the environment to feel a little less like a pub restaurant.
J.
Amazing place to have dinner at in Palmy and would have the best service I have ever come across in NZ. My wife and I were celebrating our first anniversary and all I can say is everything was 10/10.
Thanks to all for making our night a great one, Margie in particular thanks so much for everything. We will be back for sure!!
Cheers
James
R.
Great food, great service! Was impressed with the amount of food you got for the price. Not one of these silly expensive restaurants that focuses on presentation rather than the actual meal. Food was delicious, can't wait to go back!
b.
This was our first time....
It was for my birthday the staff were epic and the food was absolutely amazing. Our hole group loved it and we will definitely be going back.
a.
Our first visit and we will definitely be back. Food is amazing and very well presented. Great service from Brian and the team. Great night out ☺️
J.
Very nice atmosphere, customer service great and food very impressive. Highly recommend.
B.
Best restaurant in Palmy by far and also the best I’ve been to in New Zealand. Got greated at the door which was great. Only ever had that sort of service in America (Hawaii). Our server for the night was Niamh. She was friendly and professional. We will be back and highly recommend this place.
a.
Fabulous restaurant. We have recently relocated here from Auckland's North Shore.This place could stand out anywhere in terms of service, quality of food , not to mention style and ambiance. Brooklyn was our wonderful host.She could hold her own in the hospitality industry anywhere in the world. Well done 😊😊
O.
Came here for our 4year anniversary and the service was awesome! And food was amazing. No questions asked just get there !
T.
Such a lovely homely feel.... the service was fab...loved sitting near the fire while waiting for our table. The food was tasty and exactly what I expected it to be. Thumbs up from me.
P.
Always superb. A+ food & service
M.
Magnificent service with attention to detail. We are always made to feel like VIPs by Margie, Stafford & the team! Beautiful food with a unique flavour, especially the meats!!! A fantastic range of dinks as well.
B.
This is just an exceptional restaurant. The service is excellent. We were really looked after. The food is beyond yum. Yes the mains are mid 30s but I was left feeling that it was well worth it. This restaurant is highly recommended.
M.
Great Service, fantastic food, really good atmosphere. Highly recommend
K.
Meal was awesome and our waitress was outstanding. But the owner was rude and the place was booked out. She was telling customers to hurry up. Because the next paying customers were wanting our table. It might be a south African way, but it's not the new zealand way. Sorry just have to be honest. Hasn't put me off going again.
T.
Good food, great service. We visited on a pumping Monday night (what?!) and it was easy to see why it was so busy.
K.
Not quite what we had expected. People told us that Little Savanna is the place to go for decent steak. So we went. But our steak was flavourless and my espetada was unevenly cooked and equally bland. The manager listened to our feedback attentively and offered us a discount which we accepted. We ordered the waffles for dessert which was enjoyable but not overly exciting as far as waffles go.
My recommendation to the managers and chefs: go and eat at Gauchos in Petone for flavoursome, perfectly cooked flame grilled meat. Those guys don't hold back. Don't serve up bland food because one or two people don't want too much salt. Little Savanna needs to up their game before we return.
G.
The food was absolutely delicious, the staff were very attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere could not be faulted.
Still a few areas to be improved on for this reltively young establishment - mains came before the entre was finished, which meant they got cold a bit earlier. Also, our table's bill was lost so we had to report what we had ordered.
Overall though, the experience was good and the minor issues (while they should be improved upon) only took away from it slightly.
D.
Wow! The food was superb, our waitress Mariah was extremely attentive and the atmosphere was perfect! My partner and I went to celebrate a special occasion and we got the royal treatment! It was my second time there and I will definitely be back again
T.
10/10 The food and service at little savanna is amazing! Always happy staff who are more than willing to accommodate. My partner's parents made the booking all the way from Perth as a surprise for us and the owner was more than happy to help and even got a little Easter parcel made up for our little boy! Would highly recommend!
S.
Lovely food. Lovely staff. Relaxing comfortable atmosphere. We love little savannah. 😊😊
L.
As long time friends we visit a restaurant bimonthly for a catch up. We chose Little Savanna yesterday. Wow, the service was fantastic, Jaime made us feel like we were special from the start. Our friend that booked even received a text to remind us. We ordered lemon,lime and bitters made on the premises, best I have ever I have tasted. Followed by garlic bread, then our mains, 3 of us had the Espetada’s sirloin steak on a skewer with garlic butter drizzling down the skewer, onion rings, sautéed potatoes and vegetables. One of us had the fish which was described as perfect. The main meal was outstanding in flavour and steak so tender. What an experience we are going back!!!
C.
The food was beautiful. The seafood chowder devine in as we're the chicken wings and prawns, couldn't fault a thing👍 The service was great, attentive waiter
R.
Scrumptious meal. Veg could have been a little hotter. Meal under seasoned for my taste but condiments on table. Waiter was delightful, friendly, but extremely professional. A lovely evening. Noise level no worries. Great place. Would recommend highly
L.
The service here is always so good. The waiters make a great effort to be nice to the customers and I'll keep coming back for that.
L.
My family were out celebrating a birthday. The rugby was on which took half the tables attention including my own. The wine selection was good. The service was poor. I had to ask for menus. The drinks took ages to come. I had to ask for water.The food was average. I have dined here before and raved about the pork belly since then but was extremely disappointed to find it on a mushy mash and too salty. Sorry Little Savana but the quality has slipped.
C.
Were out to celebrate our wedding anniversary and this was the perfect place. Great staff and amazing food.
C.
First time at this restaurant tonight and i am absolutely astonished by the outstanding customer service we received from our waiter Shima. We order the ribs and a few starters and were blown away by the food quality and presentation thank you guys.
S.
Really good food totally enjoyed it
M.
Favourite restaurant in Palmerston North and one of the best I've been to in the country. Softest steak I've ever had (Scotch). Even better service. And to the gentleman leaving a 1 star review, anyone who goes to a restaurant in search for "bunny chow" clearly isn't a man of class.
S.
Amazing, all guests thoroughly enjoyed the food, beverages, service and ambience. There was a great selection of food available, and the flavours amazing, from the calamari entree, to the chargrilled steaks with basting, then to the desserts, the Malva pudding, semifreddo and cheeseboard were favourites. A great selection of drinks to choose from, better than the vast majority of restaurants in town in terms of variety and value for money. Then the service, an absolute delight to have Michael serve us, who apparently has only been employed for 4 weeks. Charisma you cannot teach. Highly recommend to all.
K.
Beautiful food. Great service. A++
E.
The staff were the best I have had in palmy I reckon. They were really friendly, helpful and cheerful. Food and drinks were yum. Would definitely come back! Their signature dish was good!
J.
Brilliant food delicious . Good service although was very busy. Georgia our waitress absolutely great. Fantastic night out. Thanks
K.
Great service from Kerry!! Food was good. Time was a little lengthy when we were the on only table in when ordering. But good quality meals. Cocktails were great!
C.
Went there for a significant birthday, was very surprised when the Little Savannah team came out and sang "Happy Birthday" to me and gave me a free dessert, complete with a birthday candle!
We had no complaints at all with the service, the food and the professionalism of the team. This was my second visit and we're already booked for a third.
L.
Absolutely awesome 👌 will definitely be back. Food and service was outstanding 😁
D.
Went for a family gathering this time, the meal and service is always bang on point. ❤ My favorite restaurant right now in Palmerston North
G.
What an adventure to eat out at Little Savanna in Palmerston North tonight
A unique and breathtaking delivery of a steak kebab, drizzling with a delectable garlic buttdr slowly melting down the meat.
Cooked to my own palate and to top it off excellent service from well trained professional staff.
I will definitely return
D.
Food fantastic, service even better
B.
I might've come with expectations too high after reading the website. Cool setup, Service was friendly & swift, meals sounded amazing - but wasn't as great as suggested. Stale chips, salty dry stew, standard mesculan salad. Not sure I'd go back except for a cocktail which looked delicious.
R.
Loved it so much when we went for dinner we returned for lunch the next day! Friendly, helpful and professional staff who provided wonderful service.
R.
Large, noisy and packed to the front door but all is forgiven, one of the best meals eaten in a long long time, pity we dont live in Palmerston North, we would be regular visitors for sure.
E.
An absolutely stunning service for Jasmines Birthday dinner for the family. The food was beautifuly presented with quality and the staff were gorgeous. Specially mention Shima who served us with his warm hospitality and professionalism.
p.
Have dined twice at Little Savanna. Pleasant premises, friendly staff and owners, good wine selection and beautiful meals on both occasions for all family in our group. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Palmerston North.
L.
Amazing food with very friendly staff
R.
Awesome food and service.
L.
Great staff, amazing food, beautiful and warm atmosphere. They guy serving us was brilliant and quite funny! We will most definately be back again.
D.
Great food, great atmosphere and great staff. Fantastic to find a restaurant full of patrons and yet our group of six could chat and laugh without straining to hear each other. Will be back!
A.
Delicious food, fantastic flavors. We had lunch today and it was really good. If you havent tried it before, check out their flat bread with tomato, basil and mozzarella - amazing, as were the goats cheese balls! Hubby had the chicken sandwich with piripiri sauce, it too was delish!
Fantastic service, the two front of house guys were attentive and very friendly.
We'll definitely be back!
A.
Dined here on their second night open. The atmosphere is lovely. I ordered the burger and it was amazing. My friend and I waited for an entrée and main for over an hour at which point we were so hungry, but the staff were very apologetic.
F.
It's a nice place. Two adult any one baby meal and drinks cost us 85 dollars. The food was very tasty and fresh. We really enjoyed the food and the ambience.
A.
Seemed to be a lot of people there for drinks not food , this impacted on the table we were sitting at , excessive noise and staff had to keep asking them to move when trying to get past. Otherwise 5 star
B.
Bryan & Lia
May have had issues at opening week but certainly on there game this week.
Nice decor busy restaurant with,friendly good service..
Group we were with all impressed with meals pork belly & steaks. Hopefully the experience
can always be repeated.
M.
Lovely food. Had ostrich steak - so well cooked. Great service from Kerry - had memorable evening!
A.
The staff and the steaks here are equally as good. If you're gluten free, they have heaps of food to cater for you. I've been a few times now and the quality has been not completely consistent, but I've never been let down or disappointed overall. They do a great piña collada.
A.
One of the best restaurants in Palmy. 100% service staff a prompt and friendly. Food was amazing with so many choices and was cook perfectly.
A.
A really nice place for a good meal and drinks !
S.
Such a great place to eat! We went for lunch and had the most delicious burgers, complete with fries and crispy onion rings! Brilliant service by Lucy!
J.
The service was very good. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The food was top quality and cooked to perfection. Would definitely eat there again.
J.
First time visiting and well worth it. Food was very nice, meat mmmmmm.
The best part was the service from the main guy, sorry don't know the name but he was fantastic. Thank you.
H.
First visit and will definitely be going back. Food is of high quality and the staff and very good. Thanks for a great meal.
S.
Well thats what should be called a proper restaurant. Meal was a little bit pricey, but it worth its money absolutely. Its had to describe food in short, but that was the dish with layers of taste, not something cooked in hassle and somehow spiced. If you after not just something to eat but rather food experience, can recommend a tryout.
C.
Good food and good beer, however my dad had under cooked chicken and mum had corked wine, but these were replaced with no problem and overall had a great time.
I.
Excellent service and food, very professional and accommodating. They went out if their way on my wife's BD which was a total surprise. Superb. Thanks again team at Little Savanna. Would highly recommend.
A.
Lovely restaurant. The staff were nice and the food came out quickly. Had a good range of food and it was all delicious. It was a good place for if you want somewhere nice but not too over the top fancy and expensive, nice place to take out of towners.
B.
Went to Little Savanna restaurant to celebrate my wife's 61st birthday. We were greeted by Jaycob who was our waiter. The meals and the service were fantastic. Would highly recommend this place to all.
b.
Great service, friendly staff and really good food.

B.
An excellent place to sit and have a meal.. The staff were wonderful and friendly. Service was really good
B.
Great food. Excellent service. Nice atmosphere. Reasonably priced. Try the pork and Jack Daniels flat bread it's mean as
S.
Wow!! My partner and I are pretty jaded Aucklanders, and this place beats the pants of 99% of the restaurants here. Great atmosphere, even better food, and the best service (a huge shout out to our amazing server, Hana - you rock).
Palmy should be proud that you have such an great place there.
L.
Thanks Stanford...his awesome service and wine knowledge made this lunch extremely enjoyable... thoroughly recommend
S.
Absolutely beautiful, the survise was great and the meals were stunning.
First time for us dining there but definitely not the last, really can't say enough the owners should be very proud of there fine establishment.
T.
Lovely birthday dinner. Great service. Delicious range of food. Malva dessert was so yummy. We'll be going back
B.
Lovely food. Great service and atmosphere
M.
Awesome food and fantastic service
A.
We can not speak more highly of little savanna.
The food is delicious and the ease and understanding of LS when it comes to gluten free requests is amazing. It is so wonderful to go somewhere and have an array of GF options and not feel like a hassle.
We have been here on three very different occasions, a date night birthday, a work do and a family celebration dinner (yes 2 kids in tow) and every time have been treated with the upmost professional, care and kindess.
The owners deserve huge credit for creating such a proficent, kind, devine atmosphere and top class resturant in the manawatu.
The chefs are high class and the wait staff nearly unbeliveable because of their over and above service. Nothing is hassle for them and tonight they even remembered and used our sons names and made conversation with them.
A++ to Micheal this evening and Stafford for our staff do on Tuesday. Thank you LS!!!
R.
Beautiful meals and friendly staff
W.
I've had good service and good food but at little Savanna I was treated to the best customer service I've ever had from a restaurant. The food was so delicious and the atmosphere was amazing it was impressive the gentleman with the long beach blonde hair that served us did make our dinner special. I'm not easily impressed but Little Savanna impressed me 5 out of 5.
A.
One of the newer restaurants here in PNC. Great fit out and the atmosphere is great too, even if it did seem a bit loud when we were in. Food was very good, range of beers a little bit wanting. A solid option for a dinner out.
R.
What can I say, best steak I've had in ages! Excellent service and a great atmosphere. A great reason to visit Palmerston North!
m.
Amazing, the waiter was excellent thanks for good night
J.
Great restaurant. The food was great, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. I'll be back.
V.
Went on a whim for a birthday and loved it.
J.
Best food an Steak in Palmerston North hands down. An the best service. Me & my partner have never been disappointed. Go an I bet you won't be either.
D.
Had the most amazing service from the boys and Mariah last year (accidentally only posted the review on Facebook!) for mine & my boyfriend’s 1 year anniversary. So accomodating, friendly and helpful and amazing service. Definitely my favourite restaurant in town now, and the service by Mariah was the best we’ve ever had without a word of a lie. Loved it! 5 ⭐️’s, and I'll definitely be coming back this year for such a special occasion. :)
n.
Little Savavavis a very welcoming place has African my self and my family we did feel welcome Very kind staffs even to the little kids .Thanks for having a place that we feel welcome like home I really highly recommend
Little Savava .
K.
The food was amazing exactly as describe. Our hostess was fabulous . Brooklyn was knowledgeable about what was in the food. offered tasters for the food so we could make an informed choice. Service was stunning.
T.
The atmosphere this time was amazing with entertainment in the tune of a live Jazz band. Again, exceptional service and food. Margie and the team, you have outdone yourself again !!
W.
One of the best dining atmosphere in PN! They set up their tables in a spacious manner so dining is more relaxing compared with most restaurants. Their lighting & decorations are brilliantly designed having the trend of a metropolitan city. Food is scrumptious too, stands out from most European restaurants in PN. Staff are all well trained with pleasant smile & know when & how to do their duties. This is a well-managed restaurant which we wouldn't hesitate to recommend to our motel guests for a quality dining experience . San WU, Braemar Motor Lodge
C.
Lovely atmosphere and service! Delicious food and some non run of the mill alcohol options. Also they are open when some others are closed so be sure to check them out!
J.
The food was great, but the portion sizing was pretty Jewish. Paid $14 for a dessert that would have easily fit into a kids yogurt cup. Hmmmm
R.
Really nice meal and atmosphere. Staff were very friendly. Would recommend.
P.
Food was delicious as were the drinks. Would have given 5 stars but the food was very slow in coming out (1 hour). No good if you have children in your party or your hungry
H.
Amazing food, and such awesome service! Always a great place
r.
Can not say enough nice things about the staff they were great and it's well presented in decor and food presentation. Meat dishes were delish however vegetarian main lacked flavour.
l.
It was a very lovely place. Very cozy, for all ages. Food was lovely. Large variety starters, entrees, mains. Desserts. The service was wonderful.nice for lunch. Then dinner.
C.
So yum! Perfectly cooked steak ribs were amazing and the staff were all so nice to my wee bub! Defs coming back...ps the hand towels and hand lotion in the bathroom... Nice touch.
