Zane Grey's - The Aquarium

Zane Grey's sits right on the Paihia waterfront in the Bay of Islands, and The Aquarium is its refined, intimate dining room — think upmarket dishes served over the water with views that do half the work for you. Named after the legendary American author and big-game fishing fanatic who was obsessed with these very waters, the restaurant leans into that Northland identity hard. If you want something more relaxed, their outdoor Dock space runs all-day casual dining, but The Aquarium is where you go when you want to make an evening of it.
