If you're after a hidden gem and want to surprise your partner, why not take them down to Sorenzo in Meadowbank? I've had the pleasure to speak with the original manager who says that their head chef has worked in 5 star international hotels and specialises in presentation. No doubt when the dishes are served to you, you will be in amazement of how well all the dishes are presented. The food is top notch and the Wagyu is of excellent quality. When you go there, do try the mango smoothie drink. My partner and I get it all the time whenever we dine there.

Approximate cost: $45

excellent japanese fusion restaurant with great service. the interior is also very nice and recommend it for a special occasion. the price is a little costly though but worth it.
