Fodor's Review:

Diners can gaze out at the harbor view over lunch in this slick, sparely designed restaurant opposite Princes Wharf. The menu is easygoing. Most dishes are offered at appetizer or entrée sizes, and you're welcome to simply linger over some tapas -- as in small dishes, though not particularly Spanish -- with a glass of wine. For something more substantial, try the perennial favorite, braised rabbit pappardelle with rimu wood-smoked bacon and walnut-watercress pesto. The menu suggests pairing it with the Rabbit Ranch pinot noir from central Otago, a match that's a good one in flavor as well as in name. Tapas only are served from 3 to 6:30.

Great recommendation to go here. The food is actually delicious! Quite cool, "designed" spot - with lovely harbour outlook.
