Baduzzi

Baduzzi is an Italian restaurant at 10-26 Jellicoe Street (corner, Unit 2), North Wharf, Wynyard Quarter, on Auckland's waterfront.

The offer

The website describes traditional Italian "Food of the People", with a sharing-style menu using seasonal New Zealand produce. The Cuisine Good Food Guide 2022 review describes it as celebrating Roman culinary heritage, naming woodfired prawns wrapped in pancetta, hapuku and meatballs, with an open bar at the centre of the room, options for all dietary preferences, and an Italian-leaning drinks list. That review gave it 17.5/20 and listed mains at $19 to $49 (2022 figures). The site describes the restaurant as award-winning without naming awards.
