Interior of Lilian restaurant in Auckland, with wooden tables and leather booth seating

Lilian Auckland

Lilian sits on Richmond Road, housed within the suburban sprawl of Grey Lynn. It is a twenty-minute walk from the greenery of Western Springs Park and sits firmly within the residential character of the area rather than the city centre.

Lilian presents a fusion of Italian and Mediterranean influences. While the room runs smart and elegant, the restaurant offers a sharper focus on contemporary technique than the traditional neighborhood trattorias scattered throughout the district. Choose this space if you prefer a quieter, more composed meal over the predictable bustle of the central business area; it is a deliberate retreat from the city's denser corridors.
