Gemmayze St

Gemmayze Street is a Lebanese restaurant in St Kevin's Arcade, 183 Karangahape Road (K' Road), Auckland Central. Its website describes it as "the next chapter of a 130-year-old story written in food, love and family".

The offer

The menu is Beirut-inspired and built around sharing. Listings describe mezze spreads, including hummus, baba ganoush, fresh pita and pickles, alongside heartier Middle Eastern comfort dishes, with vegan and vegetarian options noted. The dining room is described as having tiled floors, hanging plants and Arabic music. The Denizen names Samir Allen as a co-owner.

Opening hours

The restaurant's website lists dinner service only: Tuesday to Thursday 6:00 to 9:30 pm, and Friday and Saturday 6:00 to 10:00 pm. It is closed Sunday and Monday. Confirm hours with the venue before booking.

Groups and functions

The website has Book and Events pages, but the content available did not state private dining rooms, capacities or function packages. The shared-plate format suits groups, and one listing recommends coming with a group.

Suitability

A good fit for relaxed group dinners and social events built around shared food in central Auckland. Organisers needing a private room, set menus or a large booking should contact the restaurant directly to confirm what is available.
