About
Mr Go's on Eva Street in Te Aro has become a Wellington institution for bold, flavourful Asian cuisine that punches above its casual demeanour. The kitchen excels at wok-fired dishes, hand-pulled noodles, and Sichuan-inspired fare that keeps locals coming back week after week. With a 4.6-star rating from nearly 1,850 reviews, it's earned its reputation as one of Wellington's most reliable spots for authentic, no-fuss Asian food that doesn't compromise on quality or taste.
Expect a lively, unpretentious dining room with an open kitchen where you can watch the action unfold. Service is efficient and friendly—staff know their menu inside out and handle the regular lunch and dinner rushes with ease. Most meals land in the moderate price range, making it good value for generous portions and proper technique. It suits everyone: families (kids gravitate toward the noodle soups), couples after a solid dinner without pretension, and solo diners who are comfortable at the counter. Booking ahead during peak times (weekends, 6–8pm) is wise, though you can often walk in off-peak.
Mr Go's sits in the heart of Te Aro, a short stroll from Cuba Street's cafés and boutiques and a natural anchor for a neighbourhood food crawl. If you're exploring Wellington's diverse restaurant scene, this is essential visiting—the kind of place that reveals what locals actually eat when they're not hunting for Instagram moments. Year-round it's busy, but spring and summer bring a buzz that makes the whole strip feel more energised.
