Saan

We are extremely sad to tell you that due to staffing shortages and other Covid related challenges, Saan has closed.

Thank you to you, our customers. You are as much part of the magic of a restaurant as the food, Saan team and space. We are working with our staff to redeploy them in any which way we can.

Our sister restaurants, Cafe Hanoi, Britomart and Ghost Street remain open and appreciate your ongoing support. Our other business Xuxu Dumpling Bar will close at the end of February. Please support your favourite restaurants. They all need your business.

Much love,
Krishna, Tony and the Team from Saan

Our Vegetable Mussaman curry with jackfruit, lotus root, baby onions, red kumara, fried vermicelli and curry leaves is delicious and loved by meat eaters and vegetarians alike.

Vegan, gluten free and served at medium heat, this style of curry comes from the south of Thailand. Best enjoyed with jasmine rice.

We also have a lamb version of this curry with Hawkes Bay lamb shoulder.

Available dine in, pick up or via UberEats.
