Hogshead Illovo

The restaurant is clean and the facilities were tidy. The crumbed mushrooms were really good! However, the ribs, nachos, and wings weren't to our liking. The service was average even though the restaurant was very empty and our waitress didn't ask us what sides we wanted with our meal. When we asked a few minutes after we ordered, if the dish came with different sides, she said yes and told us she assumed we would have chips. I can commend the friendliness of the waitress who helped us, even though she wasn't thorough with our order.

We were in Rosebank Johannesburg for a few days before our trek to Kruger Park. This place is a nice walk north. The food was very good and the beers, too! The staff was very friendly. Would definitely go again if in the area.

Nice safe place in summer to feel te breeze of air on an elevated terrace while shipping away on a beer of choice. Many available.

The food here was so so so good. They had the best wings I have ever had. We came here just after they opened so we enjoyed it whilst it was pretty relaxed. The portions sizes are really good. Definitely a place I will be happy to go to again

It’s a decent spot overall, however my partner and I were pretty disappointed with the food. We ordered the Hog Board and ordered the pulled pork tacos, the beef brisket burger, the Johannes’burger and the Italian slammers. The best thing on there was the Johannes’burger. The sauce and the meat in the tacos DID NOT smell nor taste fresh. Personally, I’d recommend just coming here for the drinks.
