Baruhlo - Wynyard Quarter New Zealand

I had this place highly recommended to me by a friend and after this experience, I'm going to start listening to them more. <br/ <br/ Service was super friendly and the perfect level of attentiveness. The food was amazing. Some people may say bread is bread, but to them, great bread can lift your spirits. The wood fired bread with the tomato butter is on a whole nother level. Cannot recommend it highly enough. The burrata plate, fried chicken and pork milanaise were also notable standouts.

I liked that the food was shared so we got to have a taste of everything we ordered, it was also a very communal setting. Very nice if you want a nice little dinner date with someone

We popped into Barulho on the recommendation of someone we meet earlier in the evening. This is a very cramped, noisy Spanish restaurant which given the tapas styled menu suits the place.<br/ <br/ We had the ceviche (divine and the dish of the night) followed by smoky braised brisket empanadas (great), Brussels Sprouts done with sherry raisins (brilliant), meat balls (okay) and prawns (not so great).<br/ <br/ They sold Spanish, Portuguese and Argentinian wine by the glass, so we tried a couple of those.<br/ <br/ We finished with the apple desert (very tasty).<br/ <br/ Service was friendly and very efficient.<br/ <br/ Total bill $177 for two.<br/ <br/ We will be back.

Absolutely love Barulho. Have just returned for the second time in just over a week. The food is expertly put together and the flavours are really delicious. Every time we go we are licking the plates clean! We had the coxinhas by far the best in New Zealand (as judged by a Brazilian too! , the prawns with a gorgeous saffron sauce and the lamb meatballs paired excellently with smoky eggplant. The staff are very friendly and cozy surrounds. Can't rate this place highly enough.

This place is super cute and the food/drink options are fantastic! I wouldn’t recommend for groups larger than four because it’s quite a small, intimate place. Other than that it’s great, I would recommend the meatballs and the fried chicken
