Aarth is the realisation of a long-held dream by Chef Vinayak Shah, stemming directly from his personal heritage and deep connection to the regional diversity of India. The restaurant was born from the desire to create an intimate, unapologetic expression of his culinary identity - a place for people to gather, share, and experience food that is crafted with care, inspired by history, and elevated by the finest local Auckland produce.

OUR APPROACH TO FOOD

Our thoughtful Indian-inspired menu is a journey across India's diverse regions - from the Goan Coastal broth of the Oyster Sol Kadhi to the North Indian classic approach in our Buffalo-Milk paneer. We meticulously source the finest produce, including local treasures like Tara Hills Wagyu, to elevate every taste and texture. Our food is designed to be shared, discussed, and remembered.
