Geburi unseres Sohnes haben wir im Maori gefeiert. Schon bei den Aperodrinks war Hochstimmung, Tiku Miki Mugs und Scorpion Bowl (ein Drink für meine drei Ladies, der seinem Namen Ehremachte) lancierte den Abend! Aber auch für mich als Driver gabs einen süffigen Virgin Capi.Zur Vorspeise dann verschiedene Pacific Sushi Rolls, ein Sushi Board und ein Tartar. Nicht nur wunderschön angerichtet, sondern schmeckte grossartig. Und 6 Pacific Sushi Rolls sind eine sehr grosse Portion!Nur gut, dass der Service der tollen Hauptgängen etwas Zeit in Anspruch nahm. Aber kein Wunder bei unserer Bestellung 1x quer durch die ganze Menukarte am Sonntagabend: Surf & Turf, Beef & Reed, Teriyaki Chicken und Maori's White Coconut und ein Pad Thai. Alles top!Wir kommen wieder!

Wir müssen den Tisch wechseln...2 Stunde später, als wir das Lokal verlassen, waren die Tische immer noch unbesetzt!- Essen gut- Bedienung freundlich-distanziert- Nette Geburtstagsüberraschung. Danach Musik zu laut eingestellt.- Preise zu teuer, für einzelne Gerichte und Drinks exorbitant- cooler Garten im Sommer

And it's a little far out in a somewhat bleak industrial area with limited public transports so it's mainly for people with cars (but parking is a bit of a problem). Also, the large outdoor seating is close to a busy road so quite loud. Sadly there are not desserts, even their sorbets are supposedly non-vegan. Updated from previous review on 2021-07-11

The table we were seated was wobbly in the middle of the way, under a tent with another large group which was shouting. I could not hear my wife speaking and I was uncomfortable, so I asked one of the waiter passing by if we could sit somewhere else. He looked around and said no. My wife asked then if we could sit inside. He told us we could sit inside, but the service would be slower. We said it is fine, we are on a date and have plenty of time. We went inside and ask to the same waiter where we could sit. He told us we could sit anywhere we wanted. We sat and a few minutes later another waiter, which was the one who took our order came and started aggressing us. Stating we cannot move without saying anything. We apologised and explained that we ask the other waiter and told us it was fine. He kept coming back shouting at us. We tried to explain and did not really understand why he was so upset. If we were not allowed to stay inside, we would not mind going back to our seat. But, we actually did not have an opportunity to speak. Finally, since the night was gone for us. I asked him if we could cancel the meal. I would pay for our drinks which were already made and we would leave. He snobbed us and left. So I left the money with the drinks untouched on the table. We went to another restaurant and had a lovely evening, but we still wondered what happened there. If he had previously a bad time and was already upset. I am sorry for him. Not an excuse to insult your customers though. Btw, we spoke German with him the whole time. My wife's mother tongue is Swiss German, she was raised here, but she is black. I speak Hoch Deutsch fluently. He spoke broken English to my wife.. which I find racist.
