Good service nice spot with good atmosphere and amazing food!
We expact the rin is tender, but it is well done rib, very tough
Busy restaurants on a Tuesday night generally equal great food and service. We weren’t disappointed and look forward to coming back. Thanks.
Fantastic foods. Steaks were grilled to perfection! Ambience nice, service very good. Menu selections to satisfy all tastes. Highly recommend.
Food was okay ,heavily salted meat and the wine was way overpriced a small glass was the same as the bottle price in the supermarkets.
Looked after my dietary needs very well - Will go back again:)
Took 2 goes to find the restaurant, but great atmosphere and awesome food!! Recommend if you enjoy a great steak.
Really loved it! Every course we chose was so delicious, from the bruschetta to the really juicy meat and cheesecake dessert. We also loved Brian, the Colombian waiter.
Such an amazing steak restaurant tucked away down a side alley! The food and drinks were excellent, the service was attentive, and the ambiance was fun.
Great steaks with great waiters. A really enjoyable meal. Thank you.
Incredible meat. Proper service. Enjoyed the evening. Would go again.
Jaba Grill and Bar was a wonderful surprise to discover and we will be back. We were late to our next engagement because we were enjoying ourselves so much. Thank you,
One of the Best steaks ever, Service was very impressive
Fantastic all round, simply the best steak in Christchurch. Highly recommended
Amazing food. All the people in our party enjoyed their food. Would come back for sure
Ordered T bone steak though was a bit tough wish I had ordered a fillet. Chicken was ok, salmon was very good, beef ribs were very good.
Best Steak ever, will be back for sure soon enough
Great meal as always. Fabulous steak cooked perfectly - very enjoyable meal
We ordered the lamb rump and pork ribs with the Beef rib sides. AMAZING! We see why Jaba is in the top five restaurants in Christchurch. Frankly, they should be #1!
Just Fantastic , Great Food , would always recommend this restaurant.
The food was amazing, the staff where amazing and we just love the atmosphere.
Best steak meal we have had in NZ. (Just a pity they didn't have Hot English mustard or Australia Mustard only Dujoin). Espresso Martini and Sauv.Blanc wine was well up to standard. Very pleasant waitress/wait person/waiter. Recommend !!!!
Very nice welcoming place. Delicious food amazing atmosphere. Love it ❤️ Thank you
Loved the look of this restaurant from the moment we walked in. The Manager, was absolutely lovely and took the time to have a chat. Food was brilliant especially the baked marrow bones! Very well priced for the food and drinks. Highly recommend
Very friendly and professional staff Food was delicious and fresh
Excellent service, food and restaurant. A must eat while in Christchurch!
Food was delicious. Staff were knowledgeable and very friendly. Thanks for a great experience 👍
Had 3 courses and all were amazing, been in NZ for a week and this was the best meal to date!!! Great work Jaba team!!
Thoroughly enjoyable - it was our first visit but we'll definitely go back
Looking forward to visiting for another meal. Food was so tasty, well cooked and well presented. Good menu selection. Service was friendly, professional and suitably attentive. Definitely recommend.
We had great filets. Also try the broccoli with real bacon bits and a very small amount of heat. Really nice.
Perfect steak (get the grass fed fillet) for customers with usa steak expectations (high). It was exactly what we were after.
The stake and ribs were truly good. The wine was good also. However, the price (markup) for the wine was too high.
Great food and service. We had a lovely meal in nice atmosphere.
Excellent experience. A bit loud and somewhat difficult for conversation but that didn't take away from a great overall dining experience.
Great service, great steaks, great wine. Would definitely return .
Nice small restaurant Specials are grilled meat Kind and attentive service Clean and cozy
Service was brilliant...steak was good...the salad was overwhelmed with dressing,chips were abit soggy
Great friendly staff, amazing food. Highly recommend to others a must try
The halloumi entree was massive (I had it as a main and it was still too much for me!). The calamari was amazing, desert was superb, and my partners steak was cooked to perfection. Well worth the $$.
The cocktails and steaks we order were fantastic but not so much the atmosphere. Seated near the very noisy kitchen was quite off putting, listening to the dishwasher clean pans and all the budget heaters outside with cords running everywhere looked messy, in fact the customer on next table tripped over one. Made the overall experience very under whelming.
lovely staff, great steaks, only negative: the price (a proper side included would be nice - the mash is more decorative...)
Bring back the pepper sauce please, it compliments the food extremely well.
Sehr gutes Essen, die Steaks waren sehr lecker, Service verbesserungswürdig
We enjoyed friendly service and great stakes there! A great place.
Food was fantastic snd the service was great. We will definitely go back for another meal.
Have dined a few times and all the other times it's has been really good, this time wasn't up to the usual standard. Service was good - just a bit slow to start with and the restaurant wasn't that busy. The steak unfortunately was rather bland for the more expensive filet. The most disappointing part was we asked to take home the bone marrow bone for our dog and were given our leftover two potatoes.
Great food, in fact so good some of our party managed to squeeze in another steak! Staff great
Very good steak and salmon. Would recommend eating here. Wait staff was also pleasant.
Food was very nice and the service was Ok in general, a little pushing and trying to move us along. Was there for a client dinner and had an important customer with us, we wanted to talk, eat and drink not and eat and drink and leave. Toward the end of our dining, staff started cleaning up and packing up the restaurant around us, taking out the rubbish, slamming doors and generally acting like we should leave so they could go home. Nice food but the back end of the service really let it down, hospitality is slipping in this country.
