Jervois Steak House

At about $70 per person, Jervois Steak House is an Auckland option for diners who want a classic steakhouse dinner. The brief is direct: classic steakhouse cuisine, smart casual dress, dinner service seven days from 5pm until late, Friday lunch from 12pm until late, known signature dishes including Angus scotch fillet, lamb shoulder, calamari, crème brûlée, Sunday Roast. The Michelin Guide Plate recognition in 2026 is the key confirmed trust signal here.

This works best as a steakhouse booking. It suits diners who want a clear, familiar format centred on classic steakhouse dishes, with enough practical information to plan around price, dress code, service times.

Book for classic steakhouse dishes

The strongest reason to book is the cuisine. Jervois Steak House is a classic steakhouse, its listed signatures point first-timers toward Angus scotch fillet and lamb shoulder, with calamari as another known signature and crème brûlée for dessert. Sunday Roast is also a signature, but it is tied to a specific service window rather than a year-round everyday option.

The baseline price is about $70 per person. Treat that as a planning estimate rather than a guarantee for every order, because individual spend can vary with what each table chooses. The clearest fit is for diners who specifically want a steakhouse meal; if the group is not interested in that format, other Auckland dining rooms may be a better fit.

Schedule gives a few different ways to use the restaurant. Dinner runs seven days from 5pm until late. Friday lunch runs from 12pm until late. Sunday Roast is listed at 12pm in June and July only, so that is the time-sensitive booking to note if the goal is the roast rather than a standard dinner.

Who should book, who should skip it

Book if the group wants a classic steakhouse in Auckland, is comfortable with smart casual dress, wants a meal built around familiar steakhouse choices. The confirmed signature dishes make the decision easier for first-timers: Angus scotch fillet, lamb shoulder, calamari, crème brûlée, the seasonal Sunday Roast are the known reference points.

Skip it if the priority is something other than a steakhouse meal. The facts support Jervois Steak House as a classic steakhouse, not as a broad all-purpose restaurant for every dining brief. For mixed groups, the main question is whether most diners are happy with that direction.

For planning, the useful confirmed details are the price, hours, dress code, seasonal roast window. Dinner is available seven days from 5pm until late, Friday lunch starts at 12pm, the Sunday Roast is a June-and-July-only option at 12pm. Smart casual is the stated dress code.

How to place it in an Auckland eating itinerary

Use Jervois Steak House as the classic steakhouse slot in an Auckland itinerary. It makes the most sense on a night when the brief is clear: a steakhouse dinner, a smart casual dress code, a known price point of about $70 per person. Travellers or locals comparing options should place it against other Auckland dining generically by mood: choose Jervois Steak House for classic steakhouse dining, choose another Auckland restaurant when the group wants a different cuisine or a less steak-focused meal.
