"Conveniently located on the way to the Point Kean Seal Colony, this long-standing roadside barbecue is a great spot to sample local seafood, including whitebait fritters."

Kiwi Experience

"This little place is an incredible seafood haven that you do not want to miss on your South Island road trip. Enjoy a Kiwi classic; the whitebait fritter. It is a very well-known New Zealand delicacy that you just have to try."

Daisy Edwards

"The flavour of the seafood was mild and light and the fritter was like an omelette. The addition of the garlic, butter and lemon made it a very enjoyable and unique dish."

Jennifer Dawson

"On the way back we stopped for lunch at Kaikoura Seafood BBQ and shared crayfish, whitebait and scallops, all of which were very tasty."

Daisy Seely

"We decide on a whitebait fritter with rice and salad. Add a dash of lemon and it is delicious."
