As the days grow shorter and the cool weather sets in, SkyCity’s Delish celebration invites us to lean into the comforts of the season. Running from May through July, Delish is a three-month tribute to flavour and togetherness, with nostalgic menus, open-flame feasts, Matariki celebrations, and collaborative one-night dining experiences all set to bring people together at the table. While Delish’s signature A Chef’s Story offering draws on sentiment and culinary storytelling, it’s Gather & Toast that speaks directly to the joy of celebrating in good company.
Created for midwinter catch-ups, milestone birthdays, and those well-earned end of week cheers, Gather & Toast offers group dining at its most considered and convivial. Book for four or more at participating venues (The Grill, Metita, Cassia, and Masu) and you’ll be welcomed with a glass of Nautilus wine (or a non-alcoholic option) to pair with an exclusive seasonal menu. Available from now until the 31st of July, it’s a reason to reunite and relish the season.
Metita
Chef Michael Meredith’s vibrant three-course menu pays homage to the Pacific’s rich culinary heritage with modern finesse. For $80pp, which includes a glass of Nautilus Pinot Gris, diners can expect kingfish with buffalo curd, a deeply spiced slow-braised lamb with coconut gravy, and an unexpected yet exquisite chocolate turmeric dessert. Soulful, bright, and beautifully balanced.

Cassia
A bold four-course journey from Sid Sahrawat’s award-winning kitchen. Start with signature snacks—pani puri and goat cheese pao—before diving into rich, layered mains like tandoori chicken or green chilli mushrooms. A zingy lychee sorbet with kaffir lime rounds out a menu as playful as it is refined. This delectable dining experience is $95pp, including a glass of Nautilus Chardonnay.

Masu
Nic Watt’s robata-led two-course experience is made for sharing. For $77pp, including a glass of Nautilus Pinot Noir, the menu includes chef’s sashimi, cedar-baked salmon, lamb cutlets and a wagyu tsukune slider — each dish full of flavour.

The Grill
An indulgent four-course feast that celebrates the best of New Zealand produce, The Grill’s special menu is $125pp, with a glass of Nautilus Chardonnay or a Broken Negroni. From a twice-baked cheese soufflé and beef tartare to the signature ‘Study of Beef’ and Whittaker’s chocolate ganache for dessert, it’s elevated winter dining at its most luxurious.
