I have since gone back two more times!…read more The steaks and salad are the best parts but I also tried the homemade baked lemon tart! It was nice but next time I think I will save room for the king prawns instead. I was able to speak to the chef upon this visit and learned that he chooses the meat every morning carefully and spends hours preparing it himself. He then spends time getting the grill ready and that can take hours too. Sooo much passion and knowledge go into cooking a single steak. Def going to go back again soon. So happy I stumbled to this place and almost don't want to share it as it might get too busy and run out of tables when I go. My own selfish little slice of meaty heaven.

Maybe it's the rustic and homily…read morelook and feel of the restaurants dining area or maybe it's the always delicious reasonably priced eye fillet steak which melts in your mouth. Either way this is by far the best steak in this part of Melbourne. Be warned though this is a small two man show so service can be a bit laissez-faire so be prepared for a bit of a wait if there are a few tables (generally packed on weekends so book ahead).

Not at all value for money; with a 200g fillet steak costing $49 and accompanied by chips OR salad…read moreOR baked potato - not to receive chips AND salad OR baked potato AND salad (particularly when we are only taking about a green salad) is pathetic! And then the absolute RIP OFF is when they ask if you would like a sauce with your steak and there is a CHARGE OF $5.50!!!!!! WTF!!! The sauces run in a line at the bottom of the mains listing and you don't necessarily see the charge costing so when. asked, it should be followed up with the declaring that there is a CHARGE - yes, you get a boat of sauce but who needs that quantity for a mere 200g piece of steak - this is a disgrace - as Meg R also commented "the sauces are a rip off" so BE WARNED and BEWARE. Returning customer or recommending Squires Loft.......not this little duck.

Steak was pricey for the entire experience. I came before the dinner crowd and was shown to a table…read moreclose to the bar where I was seated alone. The staff then gathered at the bar and at full volume started talking about their night out without giving a care that there was a customer, albeit just one, next to them. If that was the case, they should have sate at the other section where they would then be able to chat to their hearts content. A customer shouldn't need to tell them that. The steak was fatty (not in a good way, the layer of fat was just so thick) and at medium rare, the insides should still be warm. But it was cold when they brought it out. Further, the side of hand cut fries were soggy and mushy and definitely not hot. For the price I paid ($57 for my meal) I definitely feel shortchanged.

TOTAL disappointment!!! This is my experience only..... not sure if a different marble grading is…read moreused here.. their marbling score rating is a joke!! ordered the rump advertised in menu as wagyu +9. I didn't think it could be true but gave it a go. Steak had no marbling was no better than ur typical rump or porterhouse at a local pub on a steak night. In fact it would have been better at a pub steak night... cheaper for the same thing!!! The chips were a joke at $8?? airfried with salt. Was like eating soggy chips from a local chippy. Only gd thing was their BBQ king prawn.

I remember 'way back when', Lone Star had a few steak houses around town, famous for their (not so)…read morespontaneous line dancing by the wait staff and encouragement for customers to shell their peanuts and sweep the mess onto the floor. It was unique. I'm pretty sure hogs breath picked up a few of their locations when they packed up their peanuts and headed on back to Texas. Now they've moseyed back into town, taking over Outback-Jacks steak house in the outdoor food area near Village Cinemas at Knox Shopping Centre. All I've tried so far was a tropicana-inspired parma with a little texas inspired chilli, pineapple and avocado. It was refreshingly different and ok value for money.

Well, Ringwood certainly isn't a place I'd be visiting for a wild night out, if this place is…read moreanything to go by. Okay, while it isn't the only pub in the area, it is one of two and I really wasn't all that impressed with it. In a way it is probably more like a restaurant, though you can basically order a beer and sit on the balcony. Still, the place really didn't do all that much for me.

Ok, so having been alive on this planet for many years, I've had the opportunity to go to a number…read moreof dining places during those years. Hog's Breath tends not to be one of those places that will rate as my most memorable. Look, it's 'ok' but that's kinda where it stays. Food is cooked for the masses, and unfortunately the steak, albeit quite soft (I could say tender, but I think that was more the 'fat'), I have had better cuts of meat at Smorgy's. The table staff were only attentive when taking my order, bringing the meal, bringing the dessert menu in the hope I'd succumb to 'up selling training' and when declining asked if they could bring me the bill. I guess I miss the days of waiting staff asking 'how are you enjoying your meal?', but maybe I'm at the older age bracket now hankering for days of yore. As I say, Hog's Breath Cafe is ok...but don't come here if you're bringing your date, or someone special. I didn't, but that's because I don't have someone to bring
