I’ve been there twice, the food tastes really great and the service is outstanding. The waiters/​waitress are very polite and welcoming, come in and serve you at the right time and provide you recommendation on food as well. This is definitely one of the best Mediterranean restaurant in Auckland CBD. Highly recommended.

Great place for lunch. Friendly service and good food — had the mezze platter which had hummus, falafel, tzaziki, feta, olives, stuffed grape leaves and more, perfect for vegetarian peeps. The lamb shank was also very yummy and came in a huge portion. The midnight mixed plate was not as interesting as the other dishes. Walked in for lunch and didn’t have to wait for a table, it was busy but not packed.

Well wanted to try since a long time a nice Mediterranean restaurant, and I was not dissapointed. Lot of smiles during the services, the menu is pretty large and you have a great choice with mezze and also mixed grill. Both were really tasty and very fresh. A great place for lunch at reasonable price but also diner with a nice bottle of wine. Slightly low key, but worth to get noticed.

This was a lucky find. Great middle eastern food! Their customer service was amazing and I really wanted wanted to compliment the chef! Their midnight mix is totally worthy to give a try. The kofte is really tasteful. I’d to anyone.

This was actually our second choice to dine at during our short visit to Auckland. The service was very nice and the food was really good. Not just your typical Mediterranean type place good but way above average. Really happy we ended up here instead and its open late!

Café Midnight Express is the place to go if you’re looking for Middle Eastern food and want a more upmarket experience than that provided by somewhere like the Middle Easten café. Midnight Express has been owned by the same family since 1989, so they know what they’re doing and continue to do it well. The food is always good, fresh and full of flavour, and there’s plenty of options to suit all palates — everything from a big meaty steak to more delicate vegetarian options.
The dining room is cosy, warm and well lit, which is a good thing in a restaurant! Because of its location (opposite the Sky Tower), its also open quite late, making it a good option for a late night dinner.

Midnight Express is your place if you, like me, enjoy the flavours and zestiness of authentic Turkish cooking. Located smack bang in the heart of the CBD on Victoria Street, it has a nice east-​meets-​west ambience which is enhanced by the intimate scale of the restaurant. The menu is part Turkish, part Mediterranean. I’d recommend any of the grilled chicken dishes which come with lovely fresh salads, hummus and yogurt sauces. Enjoy with a nice white from the extensive wine list.
Have never had a bad experience here, and it’s equally suited to couples or groups. For the quality, it’s very reasonably priced — even cheap.
