Ok place for a night out, but it does hit your hip pocket for a place that you wouldn't really go an brag about to your friends etc. atmosphere wise it was packed on a Friday night (probably best to book ahead), but food came out in a timely manner

Approximate cost: $20

We went here for my husbands birthday dinner. Despite booking in advance for a reasonable sized booking, we were given two separate booths which made having a conversation difficult. The food took forever to come out and made a number of us sick. The staff were really average - they avoided eye contact so you couldn't get extra drinks etc without hunting them down. We haven't been back :(

Holy crap, it sounds awful! There are a few Hog's Breath Cafes in Sydney, too, and I'm not sure they're much better. The service is always so slow, and they're kind fo expensive for not a huge amount... EXACT same story with trying to get a damn drink!

We ate here a few weeks back and I was quite impressed the waiter was so friendly and the menu had so many different options but the prices were a bit high (but steak is expensive) so its reasonable. I ordered a steak burger and we had also order some sides earlier and the curly fries were fantastic the burger was quite good but It was a bit too thick but apart from that I really enjoyed it. It was a great place to eat with great service and fair prices.

After a very stressful drive there, having difficulty finding it in the dark due to lack of visible signage, we made it late. The store had called us twice to see if we were still coming and tried to direct us without success. We arrived and the man that greated us was the waitperson that had called us and was relieved to see us and took us to our table. We then were handed over to 'Bubbles' and she proceeded to settle us in and direct us towards ordering. Our orders were taken with many a smile and a 'nothings a problem' attitude which was wonderful. Our wine arrived and was the wrong bottle, so that was dealt with quickly and without a fuss. The kids meals arrived before ours which was great as it meant that they could cool before we all ate together. Our meals came in a timely fashion, as in, I expect about a half hour and it was with in that time. Bubbles delivered our meals, including the sour cream that I didn't want, however she gave it to my friend that did want it which was great thinking! The food was amazingly tasty and generous in serve. My friends potato was boardering on cold, so he asked Bubbles if he could have a hot one. She apologised profusely and took it to replace it but found there were no potatos left so asked if he was happy with her reheating it. I thought that was very bold, but it was a great compromise so all was well. Her attitude is what made all the difference. Even when she was in the middle of serving someone else she assisted us when needed. We were told it was a great place to go and we are glad we went. It is out of our price range but a friend was treating us so we chose Hogs Breath. We will be back!

good review and was the food delayed?

Our meals came within about a half hour. I think thats very reasonable. I take a half hour to cook 4 different meals for my family at dinner time, so thats why I expect my meal within 30 minutes when I eat out. I wouldn't say it was delayed at all.

My boyfriend took me there to celebrate our second anniversary. Everything was perfect - the food was delicious, the staff were most attentive. We loved our meals and the desserts are awesome too. Generally, the place was absolutely outstanding.

Seating was outside in the cold. I regretted not booking as I wanted to sit inside and the wait for an inside table was 45 minutes in the bar! (On a Saturday) The heaters were powerful and on a low ceiling but the high speed winds made everything a chilling experience in May winter.
Food: Had a Garlic Prawn Prime Steak. Nice sauce. Perfect Medium Rare and loved the curly fries. My partner had BBq Ribs. She loved it as well.
Service: Drinks took a while. 10 minutes. Food came out faster than expected. There were at least 200 people in there and my steak and ribs came out between 15 minutes to 20 minutes.
I loved this place, except the seating outside.
Waitresses: Ok this is weird. They sit at your table while taking your order. Probably an American Diner thing. But they were friendly and professional.
Watch out for suggestions and upsells. Everything can be at an extra charge.

Approximate cost: $30
