Hello Beasty is a New Zealand modern-fusion restaurant nestled in Viaduct Harbour’s Market Square. Executive chef Stuart Rogan and his team serve contemporary NZ cuisine with an Asian twist inspired by Stuart and wife Emma’s travels around Asia.

Hello Beasty has been a long time in the making. Chef Stuart Rogan started cooking professionally in 1989, he was 15. Once he started he didn’t stop. He travelled and cooked his way around the world — from a Michelin-star hotel to a garage with six tables and a kitchen the size of a bathtub. Everywhere he went he took his whites and his knives and made his way by food

Hello Beasty’s kitchen offers a tasty and approachable sharing menu, providing an experience that delivers clean, bold flavour profiles with a touch of heat, from shucked oysters served with fresh wasabi, to spicy buns, a Beasty cup ramen, and their own (and our favourite) creative take on KFC (Korean Fried Cauliflower).
