STONEGRILL offers a unique interactive dining experience where diners meals are served cooking at the table on super-heated natural volcanic stones. These specially selected stones, chosen for their high heat retention, are heated to 400 Degrees C in our purpose-built Stonegrill oven. Your Meal is presented on a protective ceramic serving tray, with your choice of side vegetables, salads and sauces.

The high temperature obtained with the Stonegrill Method, sears the product faster and locks in the natural juices and nutrients, enhancing the full flavour and tenderness of all foods.

The unique "dry cooking" method, uses no added fats or oils and sears the food without burning. This method also reduces food shrinkage, taste transfer from cooking compounds and carbonization of the cooking surface. It ensures a clean, and completely natural food  flavour, not achievable with conventional cooking methods.

The result is a freshly grilled, healthy and nutritious meal with a sensational taste, unique to STONEGRILLTM.

  • STONEGRILL is heart foundation approved... 

  • No cooking oils or fats are used

  • Ideal for sports training - eat an iron rich meal without the added fat content!

For centuries, beneath the cloak of mist and memory, the tangata whenua have practiced the art of hospitality on the shores of the Whanganui River. Preparing and serving the finest hangi feasts for local iwi and visiting dignitaries alike, they have meticulously fired hot stones until the perfect temperature is achieved for optimum results. Steamed and mouthwatering, the food is served full of flavour, yielded by the land, while the stones themselves, regarded as gifts from the ancestors, have been passed from people of one generation to the next.

To honour this legacy, Stonze Restaurant, Cafe and Bar weaves together the practices of the past with the latest innovations in food preparation to delight you with a unique dining experience, deliciously full of flavour, and healthy too! Your food is cooked – not in the ground – but before your very eyes on stones that have also been carefully prepared and precisely heated, searing in all juices and nutrients to ensure flavour and tenderness is preserved.

 

A Pakeha Hangi awaits you!!

"I have never enjoyed a meal so much, as not much of a 'Carnivore' I usually opt for the vegetarian choices but the concept of Stonegrill has changed my mind completely - I'll be back!" This Motel and their staff are a credit to the tourist trade.

This has been the most amazing meal I have eaten in a very long time. The preparation and presentation is absolutely top notch. The staff are amazing - very friendly, professional and helpful. This visit for me has been very very satisfying. When asked where to eat in Wanganui - for me now - there is only 1 place - and that is STONZE
