Capitol
If you are in Wellington (as I was last evening) make sure you try and get along to Capitol Restaurant.
Wellington is blessed with great restaurants and this is one of their finest.
The Menu is always exciting and it’s a great "room". Situated in the Embassy Theatre this (once) art deco antique store has been a fantastic spot for quite some time now.
They know how to make a good Campari too.
