The restaurant was full. We walked in and asked for a table for two. Waited for 5+ min but got a table. Staffs were very nice and friendly. We had some snacks so just ordered today's soup and fish. Soup came with two pieces of small garlic bread and it was nice. Warmed up the body a little bit. Fish was a bit too fishy for me but dill on top was a good touch. The mashed potato at the bottom was nice too. Together we managed to finish the dish. We love cream brulee. So ordered one for dessert. The top sugar coating was too think. The cream part was .. little too sweet and creamy yet it was basic and standard. Perhaps we had our expectations set little too high. If you stay more than 2 nights in the area, I recommend you book a table in advance. But .. be patient with service time.

Nice modern restaurant, with a view to see. The food was tasty just a bit expensive and smaller portions.

Amazing meal, super chilled atmosphere with views of the ocean. The new owners have done a great job and will definitely be back next time we’re in Kaikoura ( highly recommend mussels and Portabella mushroom mains) A++

The best fine dining in Kaikoura! Got a special occasion in Kaikoura and want to eat fancy? Go, right now, to the Green Dolphin. I absolutely did not expect to find food like this in Kaikoura. It's a mix between fine dining and the size servings you'd expect at a bistro like Lone Star... giant servings, but of *excellently* prepared, 4 star food. The mix of trying to please everyone, as needed in a small NZ town, does mean that it doesn't reach the heights that they might like, but the meal is great, service is friendly and local, the wine and beer have a lot of South Island favourites, and you're supporting a restaurant doing something different in a small town.... and compared to the same meal in Auckland, Wellington, or Chchch, it's CHEAP AS. Go, surprise yourself. Dress up, have fun. Eat good.

The fish of the day was excellent but half a Crayfish for more than 70NZD was definitely overpriced n overrated (disappointed by the taste). It was a VERY SMALL crayfish!! Putting the entire bowl in the plate took up the space on the plate itself and left no room for a more reasonable size crayfish. Clever but cunning. Staff were very nice though.

We didn't have table booked but they found us one after 10 min.The meals were very good. Tasty. The staff was a bit slow but it was full so I can understand why.
