Marine Bay Eatery is a gastronomic delicious experience. This seven day a week restaurant and bar is situated across from the Whitianga Marina on the corner of Blacksmith Lane and Esplanade.

The two lead chefs are also the owners of the Marina Bay Eatery Restaurant business.  These two brothers, Dharmendra and Dhiraj came to Whitianga almost one year ago. Both have many years of experience in both European and Asian restaurants, working in Queenstown, Arrowtown and Dunedin for several years after coming from heading their own kitchens in some of northern India’s top restaurants. 

“We have a lot of experience in all cuisines, but we wanted very much to buy our own business and work together to build a good life here in New Zealand,” says Dharmandra, whose wife and child, Sam, are also here. “We love Whitianga and it is very good that my younger brother has joined me and Selina, my wife, manages the bar.  This is a family business and we get great joy out of preparing fine food for our customers.”

“We are working hard for a new and good life here on the Coromandel,” says Dhiraj. “We hope the business grows so we can stay here. And we have an excellent kitchen team and we wait to welcome you.  We love Whitianga; it is very peaceful, and people have been very welcoming to us.”
