The staff are friendly and never make you feel rushed. My favourite dish to order is a burrito and it comes with sides of rice, black beans and pink cabbage. For drinks I prefer one of their margaritas (with lots of salt and lime) or the sav blanc off the menu. I've never gotten to dessert because I have been so satisfied with the main. The restaurant is relatively small (only 40 pax) and casually decorated. It can get a little loud because of the small space and is usually full. You NEED to book or you will likely miss out...there are a lot of walk ins...or 'attempted' walk ins. Only downsides other than the size is that you must walk through the kitchen to get to the bathroom and they don't have a website. I pretty much think all restaurants should have a site these days but I will overlook any cons about this place because: - the food is great and fairly priced - the staff are nice and genuine - the place has a very Manly feeling to it...nice and casual Tips: - Book book book book BOOK! - Try a margarita - Save room in your stomach before you come or you will be struggling to finish - Don't go to Mexico via Manly (on Manly beachfront) over this place. It may look prettier but it's not even in the same league as this place.

If you are looking to go on a weekend night I suggest you reserve a table as it was quite busy on Saturday around 7pm. You have the choice to sit inside or out and my party of 3 sat inside which was nice as it was lightly raining outside (can be seated undercover). The tables have white sheets of paper over the tablecloths and if you're a regular you know that you can ask for crayons for your kids to deface the paper (there were kids all throughout the restaurant so this is a very child-friendly place). Our waitress was efficient to begin with but not overly friendly and made me feel like she could be in a rush to get somewhere else, which is never a nice feeling for anyone. Our food arrived and this is where this restaurant goes off, garlic pizza to die for! It was golden, thick, crispy, loaded with garlic and cooked to perfection. Needless to say between 3 people it was gone in a flash. Next up we had 2 medium sized pizzas - Garlic Prawns (apparently it was VERY cheesy, perhaps a bit too much but was told it was still delicious), Capriciossa (holy crap this pizza was amazing, not traditional as the ingredients were heavily loaded but that's just the way I like it) and a Truffle Carbonara Fettucine pizza for my brother - looked like a big, creamy portion but that 14 year old smashed the whole bowl! I didn't quite finish my pizza but this usually means you can take some home for leftovers the next day, except I didn't, because no one ever returned to our table. We were not offered a second round of drinks, our plates were not cleared, we were not offered dessert or coffee and even though we sat chatting for 20 odd minutes we ended up having to leave the table and go to the front counter to pay for the meal. The MIA service at the end of the night really put a damper on my experience which is unfortunate as the food was truly wonderful.

We ordered the Rare Beef Noodle Soup (we ended up with Beef Noodle Soup With Fatty Beef), Rice Vermicelli With Spring Rolls & BBQ Pork (we ended up with Special Combination Rice Vermicelli). The only thing they got right was the Young Coconut Juice. The food tasted nice and had lots of flavour but it would've been lovely if they actually got any of meals right. We were charged the higher priced dishes of course. The guy who took our order could see what I had pointed out on the menu so unsure if they do a switcheroo on unsuspecting customers. It is cheap and cheerful for what they offer though.

We chose Hog's Breath as we were already dressed up and I heard good things about this place. The bar side of the restaurant was super loud and busy due to the Cronulla Sharks playing that night. Service was a bit slow and it did take about 15 minutes for the server to acknowledge us to get drinks and about another 15 minutes till he came back to take our order. The restaurant portion itself wasn't busy and there were only a couple other tables that were occupied so I couldn't understand why the server wasn't able to be more attentive. The wait was well worth it. I ordered the Prime Rib with fries, prawn and a Cesar salad that was topped with a garlic creme sauce. It was very delicious and I wish I can go back again. I would suggest making this the highlight of the night or going to dinner after a movie due to the slow service.
