Poderi Crisci brings traditional Italian food to Waiheke Island. With its spectacular setting, North West facing restaurant captures the final rays of the setting sun, serving “Italian classics” accompanied by the estate wines from our exciting wine menu, and providing a warm and friendly service.

Italian food is only good if it is made fresh, we take pride every day in using only the freshest ingredients, with produce sourced from our potager gardens. The unique aspect of the Italian-styled Poderi Crisci Gardens is their stunning design. With large raised rectangular beds surrounding geometrical grass centre pieces and adorned with Cypress trees, clipped boxed hedging and lavender, this herb and vegetable potager has been created to endure.

The main purpose of the garden is to supply produce to the Poderi Crisci Restaurant .We understand the importance of providing quality.
The other reason for the garden is to share this process of growing food with our children and to provide fresh produce for our family and friends. Complementing the cuisine are carefully selected fruits of the vine, with a celebrated wine list featuring wines from the estate.
