One Red Dog is a fully licensed Wellington waterfront restaurant in the Steamship Wharf Building, with a relaxed format centred on pizza, pasta and antipasto. Tables can be reserved, and pickup and delivery extend the same menu beyond the dining room. Children are welcome, and set-menu arrangements for larger groups give the venue a practical social character that suits celebrations as readily as an uncomplicated lunch or dinner.
The opening section is designed for mixing across the table. The Red Dog platter combines cured meats, smoked chicken and several cheeses with toast and accompaniments, while flatbreads, loaded potato skins, pulled-pork sliders, chicken wings and mussels cover a wide range of textures. Salads are more than token lighter options: chicken Caesar, Thai beef, prosciutto and roasted-vegetable combinations can either stand alone or balance a spread built around richer snacks.
Pasta has its own distinct personality. Prawn linguine brings seafood into a creamy tomato and capsicum sauce with lemon, garlic and chilli, while carbonara and smoked-chicken fettuccine take richer cream-based directions. Chorizo gnocchi adds blue cheese, sun-dried tomato and spinach; mac and cheese leans into smoked cheese and bacon. Vegetarian gnocchi with browned butter, walnut, spinach and pecorino ensures the section is not organised entirely around meat.
The gourmet pizzas carry the restaurant’s playful naming and broad flavour combinations. Margherita provides the straightforward baseline, while Shawshank layers braised lamb with pumpkin and rosemary and Beef & Béarnaise adds mushrooms and capsicum. Chicken with cranberry and brie, spicy Cajun chicken and chipotle pulled pork move in richer directions. Vegan Shangri La uses pumpkin, avocado, olives, jalapeño and vegan feta, and gluten-free bases make the sharing format accessible to more groups.
