I highly recommend! The food and cocktails are exceptional, beautiful aesthetic, style and location. The service was very friendly, thank you to Coco, Vincent and Josh for making me feel welcomed and seen. I had a beautiful night and I’ve already told my whānau that we have to come here on our next trip to Napier. Ngā mihi nui, puku is full!!

The food was absolutely delicious—I really enjoyed everything! The only downside was that they forgot my last order (the croquette), and I was starving by then. Aside from that, everything was fresh, flavorful, and really tasty. I would definitely come back!

I had the best cocktail I’ve had in a long time! I highly recommend “the Madame” and if you can have it made by Laurette then it will be a 15/10 like mine was!
Our waitress was Loona, attentive without being around too much, answered all our questions - I generally have a few when looking at a menu and she gave great suggestions.
The restaurant has great acoustics - was busy, music playing but was quiet enough to chat without having to raise our voices at all.

We had cocktails to start, delicious and gorgeous...then we had chicken wings, calamari & spring rolls which were out of this world good followed by some fries and pork & paua dumplings so good.!! We finished our meal with fried rice & Ramen and boy oh boy they were Devine.!! All round eating experience was top notch, my friends and I recommend 10/10 everything was bomb...

This was our first visit to Madame Social and we weren’t disappointed. The food was delicious, the portions were a good size and Bradly definitely looked after us. The tall ceilings and open decor was comfortable and they had a choice of indoor and outdoor dining options. The toilets were also clean! Will dine here again for sure.
