Howl at the Moon
First thoughts: Nice, cool music, but a bit dim (I’d prefer to eat in a brighter environment)
Food:
The Howling wings tasted beautiful - the blue cheese dip was my favourite. The Caesar salad was ok, there wasn’t anything special about it, but I wished the chicken was sliced into bits and tossed with the other ingredients. The mixed grill was ok, but it wasn’t what I’d expected - the Porterhouse steak was very thin and it was cooked too well that it was burnt at the edges. Other things in the mixed grill were pork sausage, bacon, lamb and fries. The lamb was the only meat that I liked in the dish. It was perfectly cooked so that it was not burnt, enough for me to suck the juices out of the meat.
Cost: $20 per head.
Winza’s rating: 6.5 out of 10.
It is quite expensive, so I’d probably recommend it as a one-off occasion. I wouldn’t go for the Mixed grill the next time I go, but the Howling wings are a must-have.
