We went here for a work function and got the 3 course meals (around 25 people). The food was very good and came out quickly. The meal sizes were huge (bigger than most restaurants) my partner and I couldn't finish it all. We never had an empty glass in front of us, as the waitresses were continuously topping them up for us. Service here waas AMAZING!!!! My partner and I will definately be back.

We came here using a voucher, the mixed entree to share was average. It was quiet except for one large group that was there before us, so we thought it wouldn't take long for our main meals to come out. But weren't we wrong, they took at least 40 minutes (almost an hour) to come out. We asked 2 seperate people how much longer they would be and the first lady said about 2 minutes, 10 minutes later still nothing so we asked the guy who was looking after our table, and he never returned with an answer and continued to serve other customers. When we got out meals, they were very ordinary the chicken and steak's were good, but the burger was very ordinary, it looked good but there was the smallest piece of chicken on it (only half the burger)The service here was terrible. We even skipped desert, because we were that disappointed.

We have eaten at Hogs Breath a couple of times before and it has never been AMAZING but has always been fairly good and satisfying.
We had made a booking, but we arrived mayb 5-10 minutes early and when we got there we were told that our table was currently being used. However, there was at least 5+ tables with nobody at them, We asked them to put us at a different table but it still took them 10 minutes to decide to do it.
We ordered the special which was on at the time which included a main and then either an entree or dessert along with the drinks. Our food came out really quickly but we had to remind them about our drinks. we ordered a second round of drinks after the entrée, however we had almost finished our meals and they still had not come out. The steak was very watery and gross. We will not be back.

We used a voucher which included an entree to share, dips and turkish bread and then 1 main each (reef and beef or reef and surf) with lobster.
The entree was delicious, however because there was 2 of us I do think that there should have been 4 pieces of tukish bread and not only 3, however it was not worth complaining about.

When the main meals came out, it didnt look like there was much on the plate, but once you got started there was plenty on the plate, I couldnt even get through it. The lobster was sooo good and the other seafood on the plate was NOT deep fired :) which makes me happy.

These meals were amazing and the service was very very quick. We would recommend this to anyone. We will definitely be back!!!

We got a voucher online for $59 (half price), which gave us a seafood platter for 2 and a bottle of wine. We ordered garlic bread before the platter came out, and the garlic bread was very, very good. The thing I hate about most seafood platters is that almost all of it is usually deep fried. NOT this one!!!! This platter had all fresh seafood and nothing was deep fried (except the chips, of course), if it was hot it was grilled. It also had a very large variety of seafood on the platter including; oysters, prawns, fish, bugs, lobster, calamari and octopus.

This is one of the best seafood platters we have ever had, and we will definitely be back again!!!
