Supra is a small, intimate restaurant on Level 1 at 31 Dixon Street in Te Aro, Wellington. The website describes its food as Australian-style cooking using New Zealand produce, with a focus on natural and low-intervention wines. Dishes listed include Mills Bay mussels escabeche with aioli verde and baguette toast, grilled halloumi with green harissa and confit fennel, and oyster mushroom tacos with barbecue carrot sauce. The website also offers a vegetarian tasting menu, and says vegan diners cannot currently be catered for. Other dietary needs can be included in the booking, but the restaurant warns it may not always be able to meet them.
The restaurant is open Tuesday to Saturday from 5pm to 9.30pm. Enquiries go by email to contact@suprarestaurant.co.nz. The chef was born and raised in Sydney and has worked in high-end restaurants, and the website says the restaurant aims to be product and people focused, without fuss. Our pick in Te Aro for a small dinner with natural wine.
