GREAT VIEWS
Once again a trip to Paihia is not complete without a trip to 35 Degrees South.Catch of the Day is always a favourite menu choice. Service and food are excellent as always…. Views to die for. Cant wait for next year…..
Dear 35 Staff,
Thank-you so much for a fabulous evening sooooo loved everything… decorations / food was out of this world / music set a special mood / service from the 35 staff was great (as always). Have to say that both Denis and I (as always) enjoyed that whole evening and I have been talking to a few of the other moteliers and they also thought the evening was wonderful.
Hopefully Moteliers remember the effort that you all put into the eving and send lots of their guests to 35 to enjoy a fabulous evening – great for the Bay to have such a good restaurant.
Cheers

Unfortunately you have RUINED Fish & Chips for us. We had the BEST EVER with you. How can anyone compete?

As Americans, NZ service sometimes seems slow. Here, it was like we were back home – very efficient and the lady who served us was lovely. Thanks for making our first night in Paihia so enjoyable!

Hi there,
I just wanted to have a gush about the time we had at 35 degrees on thursday the 22nd of November. We run a tiling business and for our staff event we bought our staff and partners up to the copthorne resort for a night. Come dinner time we realised we hadnt made any plans for dinner and at such short notice we were worried we wouldnt find a place that would be able to serve us.We rang 35 degrees and they encouraged us that they would have a table for 6 ready for our us in just over an hour. I was so pleased as friends had reccommended the resturant many times.
We arrived and we just had amazing service. We were seated in a beautiful spot outside over-looking the water and our waitress (scottich girl i think, she had an accent) was so accommodating and made sure we were comfortable and delivered water to us within minutes of us being seated.
Being as busy as we are i wouldnt normally go to the bother of writing to you as i am but the service and food was so amazing i had to let you know. He was previoulsly a chef and he said they were the finest he has ever had. Everyone ordered different mains and it was good to see the variety on the menu, I dont eat seafood so I ordered the steak which turned out to be one of the best meals I have ever had, everything was perfectly cooked and delicious. we talked about nothing else but how good the food was for most of our stay. my husband ordered the salmon which he said was melt in the mouth. We also ordered bottles of wine which were great.
The dessert was equally incredible, the portions were just right and the presentation was beautiful. i have to say that the meal we had with you made our trip! we had such amazing service you would think we were the only ones in the place, even though you were full. Thankyou so much for a great meal and night out. We have been reccommending your resturant to everyone we know, we live in whangarei but despite the distance we will be making the trip up again just to go to 35 degrees.
Please pass on our thanks to all your staff, how refreashing to recieve such perfect service and meals at such short notice!
I will not hesitate in coming up again for future staff events!
Many many thanks again Vanessa Campbell
