We went to La Zeppa for a friend's birthday. All the Tapas items we ordered were good, I particularly liked the Feta and Mozzarella balls. There was a musician signing and playing guitar but it was never too noisy as sometimes it can be in these places. The decor was nice and the seats were comfy, the atmosphere was relaxed, ideal for a Sunday afternoon!

La Zeppa is an awesome place to visit when catching up with friends on a sunny afternoon. They have a great tapas list and make the yummiest cocktails. I'm not sure what it is like during winter but from what I remember they have lots of indoor seating. From the bar food I would recommend trying the mushroom and truffle arancini balls that comes with the most delicsious walnut ailoli and from the cocktail list I would suggest trying the Blood Orange martini.

Sounds good! Thanks for the tip :)

Been to La Zeppa a number of times for dinner and/or drinks. The cocktails aren't bad, in fact much better than the food there. In my opinion the tapas are not worth their price. Other than that,  the atmosphere and decor are quite nice and usually quite packed on weekends.  The place has just been refurbished and looks great. The outside area has become bigger and looks awesome. 

Love La Zeppa, great for group dinners, or a girls night out! love the lanterns out on the deck! good service n yummy food!!

A busy large bar with awesome new heated outdoor area. Can be really busy on weekend nights and hard to get a drink. Good music and party vibe.

Fantastic spot for a casual meal and the food doesn't disappoint.  Great range of tapa's and really well priced for what you get. Always a great crowd and with the new deck outside, it's a perfect spot for a night out.

To die for!

We had such a brilliant night at La Zeppa with friends on the weekend. The wait staff were bubbly and very knowledgable about the menu.  We had a great table right near the central fireplace (which wasn't going).  Fabulous comfortable padded leather chairs made it easy to sit for hours grazing on tasty food and wines! We ordered 12 dishes between 6 of us, and weren't at all disappointed.  A good selections for vegetarians which always impresses.  Risotto balls with mushroom and blue cheese aioli were a big hit with everyone, as were the meatballs.  The star of the show would have to be dessert (of course!) - the mini banoffee pies were finger licking good!! Next time we're keen to try the churros with chocolate sauce! No hassle splitting the bill up at the end of the night, which can sometimes be a nightmare in places, but not here.  Overall a really great night thanks.  Will definitely be back!

Now, post rennovations to the now gorgeous deck, La Zeppa may be my favourite spot in Auckland! They have done the most amazing job with the outdoor area; lanterns, tonnes of seats, umbrellas, a second bar and live music on Sundays. Highly recommend.
