The Best Steakhouses Near Hummingbird, by the Record

The rib-eye here gets 55 days of in-house dry-aging before it goes over mānuka and apple wood, which tells you most of what you need to know about the priorities. This is a steakhouse in Wellington's CBD, tucked into a historic building whose tall windows and high ceilings give it none of the dark, leathery gloom the genre usually insists on. Lumina lamb and market fish round out the menu for anyone who wandered in under peer pressure.
