About Trivet
Inspired by the multicultural essence of Aotearoa, at Trivet we celebrate the richness of people, culture, and heritage. Each dish tells a story, blending flavours and techniques from Polynesian cuisine and around the world with the finest local produce New Zealand has to offer.
From sustainably sourced seafood to locally grown ingredients and house-made delicacies, Chef Wallace and the Trivet team create a culinary experience with a nod to both tradition and innovation.
The Trivet menu isn't tied to one particular style of food or concept; instead, it honours the heritage and vibrancy of New Zealand's dining scene. Our menu is approachable, with familiar flavours, Aotearoa food, and a sharing style that everyone can feel connected to.
What does the word Trivet mean?
In many cultures, the table is a sacred space where families and friends gather to share meals and create memories. A trivet, designed to protect the table from heat, plays a crucial role in preserving this sacred space and ensuring it remains a focal point of connection.
From the moment you arrive, the interiors are designed to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, blending organic textures with contemporary and custom-made elements. Drawing inspiration from Aotearoa's natural environment and iconic landscapes, Trivet features an earthy palette of greens and warm wood tones, connecting diners with the land and the bistro-inspired ambience, making Trivet your home away from home.
