We dined there yesterday for lunch. It was my son's birthday. The food was tasteless, greasy and very unappetizing. The staff were not very well informed. We do not eat beef and the chef was very reluctant to accommodate us. The only positive experience was the ice cream sundae and mud cake. All in all it was totally disappointing:(

Came here spur of the moment and they were able to fit us in. They had a table for like 50pax (the table went for miles) and we got there before them *phew* We had to ask more than once for water, I was so thirsty so made it worse when they forgot! Ended up getting it, then another girl came with water, so miscommunication. All good though. Entree - garlic bread - nice. Main was The Mixed Grill Tower For 2! Wow! We got our steak medium rare and *drum roll please* it was perfect!!!! It was pretty scrummy. The only problem was where we were sitting, it was near the waiters/waitresses other desk, near the toilets and the waitresses used our booth ledge to write stuff on cards and I thought that was really rude, unprofessional. But on a good note, there were a few birthdays and I thought it was awesome how the whole restaurant got into the vibe and sung happy birthday as well!! Now you wouldn't see that in fine dining!! Id go again. I didn't bother reading the bad reviews on this place - read mine! I tell the truth!! You need to go with an open mind - the prices of meals aren't big bucks so be realistic!! And the girl at the counter actually took us away from the line of people waiting to pay and we got to pay at the bar, she must have known we were in a hurry!! Thanks Hogs Breath - see you again

the staff was really nice, especially since we've never been there before. Portion sizes are generous and at the price you are paying for... it was literally the best Steak I've ever had. if you are in wellington and can spare a few bucks, definitely check this place out.

Great burgers, but I usually come here just for the curly fries, yum! Service is a bit slow, atmosphere isnt great (either too busy or too empty), but the food is quality and comes in large quantities

A restuarnt to take the family to, includes kids menu. If you are wanting large portions this is the place to come. Note: this is not a "cheap eats" restuarant.

Service was good and so was the food. We ordered The Hogs Breaths version of eggs benedict which was quite large, presented nicely and value for money. Staff were friendly and reasonably fast. Only bad point was "sausages" for $3.00 ended up only being one very small breakfast sausage.
