Picked up some pizzas after driving back from Ruapehu which was almost 2100. they happened to have a special for 2 large pizzas for $32.They had the same interesting flavours as the one in Pakuranga like the Butter chicken pizza. The pizzas had nice flavour although the pepper lamb one we ordered was a bit spicy. I also quite liked the base cause it was crispy even though it was a pan base. Four large pizzas were more than enough for 6 people.

Come again dined here for dinner in New Year to relieve the craving I've had all week for chicken dish. But its Terrible.We ordered some starter and Beef quesdillas lamb shanks .Whenever we dine here we feel that the service is usually okay and food was good with big portions which is one of the main reasons we go there every now and then. However, that was not the case last night.Firstly, table is sticky .it seemed that the staff were confused among themselves; we were led to our table by the staff at the counter, a waitress came and took our order, another waiter came and told us that she'll be looking after our table, and once we were done with our meal, a different waiter came to clear our table. Maybe it's how their system is run, but it made us feel as though we were not being properly looked after.Now back to the food.we waiting for half hour got the food .Before just 10 mins. And the food is lack of seasoning.I dont know what happen . Maybe they change the owner or chef ?The lamb wasn't even as tender as they should be, and the amount of mashed potato served with the lamb was terrible. The beef quesdillas were alright - nothing fancy. What a big disappointment! I thought Toby Jug INN is known to "provide quality with quantity" which was far from the reality that hit us big time on our face. We've actually asked the waitress about the quantity of each dish before ordering and she was pretty confident that they would be filling. Quality? Could be better, and quantity? Who are we kidding?We had to come home and cook ourselves a meal to satisfy our hunger after paying from dining out. What a waste of money and time. I usually don't like ranting negatively about a place, but just felt the need to put it out there with an honest review. Not going back to this branch again out of choice for sure.

Nineteen Eighty-One

Reviewed By Lyndaanne16

Enjoyable family meal, for 7 adults and 2 children on a quiet Sunday evening. Not a huge range of meals. Two had the steak, salad and chips, cooked as requested and very nice. Three pizzas, very nice and a good size. The others had burgers. All food was nicely prepared and tasted good.Staff were attentive and nice to deal with.Not very busy, so parking could be a problem at busy times. No parking on the roadside. Watch carefully as the entrance is easy to miss and finding a place to turn around not very easy.

Broncos Steak House

Reviewed By NewZealander101

For a place that has Steak in their name, and pride themselves on them. You would think they would know how to cook a steak properly.The menu was vast and all the food looked lovely, but after ordering a medium Rare Steak and received a rare (at best) steak I wasn't very impressed, the lavour was good and the peppercorn sauce tasty.The only reason I didn't send it back was because I was on a time schedule and didn't have the time to wait for them to cook another steak or to re-cook this one. Otherwise i would have sent it back immediately. Utterly disappointed.

Republic Bar & Kitchen

Reviewed By levon2018

Really nice in terms of what you might expect from a bar. Modest variation of dishes, but solid standards every time. Doesn't seem to matter who is on the grill and their head chef must run a tight ship.Did have a problem once with two people waiting for food while everyone else had been served (granted it was a full house) but those two were happy once they got into the eating part.

Another visit to one of my favourite steak houses. My New York strip was perfectly cooked and little Miss’ hot dog also got the thumbs up. 2 clean plates showed we both enjoyed our meals. We’ll be back!

Good place on of very few on Half Moon Bay waterfront, with a reasonable menu and good choice of drinks including tap beer and selection of New Zealand wines. Could be a little bit crowded at times with waiting time longer than comfortable. The location is great in the good sunny day.

Definitely the best place to eat near Auckland's international airport! Lovely food that uplifts your mood after you've been on a tiring 10h flight, 2 days after a 12h flight... They serve food for everyone, including the gluten-intolerant among us :-). I had amazing pizza, my spouse had a delicious burger with fries, perfect comfy food.We are glad we could uplift your mood with our food and service. Thanks for a positive feedback.
