We were lucky enough to come across this place when the new chef was in place. It was the best italian meal I've eaten in a long time, just delicious. The staff are a little snooty, and the white tableclothes look really only works if you ensure they're clean and crisp but if you ignore that, its an awesome spot.... More

A very nice Italian restaurant. We enjoyed our meal and the service was very good. The decor is nice and the tables are not cramped together allowing total privacy.

We ate here only the one time while we were staying locally, and my seafood risotto was really delicious and also a lovely generously sized serving. I would very much love to have come here again, but unfortunately there weren't enough spare days left. One really lovely touch was the complimentary bruscetta while we were waiting. Also, the bread starter... More

Two dinners in a space of two weeks means I've slipped up in not going a third time this month! A favorite with locals, Windjammer is in a class of its own. Our meals were delicious and beautifully presented. The Italian menu has a wide range of choices, and yes, the chocolate souffle is truly very decadent. The staff were... More

The food at Windjammer was very good, though not cheap! My meal wasn't quite what I expected as the sauce on my fish was not as described, but it was tasty and filling. The atmosphere was fine, though we were one of only three couples the night we visited so the place had a very large, empty feel. The restaurant... More

Although this restaurant doesn't share the amazing ocean views of restaurants in the vicinity, it's well worth a visit. We arrived late, but they reopened the kitchen for us and looked after us like royalty. The food was great and the service was impeccable.

On a recent holiday to Raratonga my wife and I visited the Windjammer Restaurant for a lovely dinner. The meal was faultless and we enjoyed the night out, However after returning home we found we were charged on our credit card for two meals on different dates when we only visited the restaurant once. On principle I would not dine... More
