My son and I felt like having a pizza for early dinner and I suggested "One Red Dog" but realized it's now Big Dog on Blair (goes to show I haven't been back for quite a while!). We were the only clients when we came in but two couples later arrived with toddlers. Staff were nice and our orders came in promptly. We enjoyed the Water Hound pizza (I'm a big seafood fan) which had a really nice, thin crust, as well as their Chunky Handcut Fries. The place was clean, family-friendly, with a nice ambiance.
Went here with a group of 6 for drinks and food on a Friday night. Was surprisingly quiet. There is lots of choicefor drinks including cocktails and a couple of mocktails. We got a few starters to share as well as two pizzas. All the food was a hit, with people complaining the sliders were to small and they needed more.
Service was good and they continued to check in with us throughout the night to see if we needed more drinks.
I was there with my boyfriend, actually it was our anniversary, and it was really friendly staff, and I highly recommend the place. I advise you to try the fish, it was lovely and fresh, I dont eat meat, but my boyfriend said that his steak was the best that he had had in a long time.
Just got back from Big Dogs on Blair - what a find! I had given up on family dining until I went there with my large group tonight. They made us feel very welcome, great range of beers on tap, and man - they know how to make a good mojhito! Can't speak well enough of the pasta - it was the daily special which changes from day-to-day, tonight it was fab! They got our group seated and fed in time for our movie, even had time to spare for a mixed berry creme brulee - absolute magicians! Definitely heading back there for my next group event.
A wonderful place, biggest serving sizes in Wellington, especially that Courtenay Place-area - where you are paying top dollar for tiny tinsie winsy portions - do yourselves a favour GO TO BIG DOGS! Flavors were amazing - definitely try the pork belly! Service was top notch - friendly as! we received our meals in good time and then went halves in a chocolate fondue with churos!!!
A winner!
The restaurant was recommended to me by one of my mates who lives in Wellington, so I decided to go and try this restaurant, the menu had variety of dishes in it, some attractive pizzas as well, but then I decided to go with the chicken breast, which had amazing flavours in it and was beautifully presented.
Staff were very attentive and professional.
Service was good and the environment was perfect for a nice and relaxing evening, if this is what you are after.
Will recommend this to other people as well.
Two lunchtime meals here now in a couple months and both times have been fantastic. Excellent fresh quality food, flavour twists that you don't expect but they work. All at a reasonable price. Will keep coming back.
A friend recommended to us to come to Big Dogs on Blair for dinner and so we came last weekend for a meal. We ordered the Calamari rings for an entree to share and they were divine. For the mains we had the Fish of the day, which was classic and simple seared fish with a home-made feel and salad. And the Pork Belly, which was roast pork with kumara chips. Both were spectacularly presented at a good price. The lovely ladies who served us were joyful and we are happy to have come.
You guys definitely have great pizza! We came here last night and ordered a couple of large pizzas. Bulldogs and Mastiff maybe?The front of house staff served us quite quickly and the pizzas came out really fast. Awesome place to eat out with fabulous service. Thanks so much for the savy lady boss.
I really enjoyed our recent visit - the pizzas were delicious, and they were very accommodating to our small daughter (putting us a little way away from the other diners so we weren't too disruptive, and providing her with toys and colouring in). I would definitely visit again.
Everything on the menu is great. Normally I find it hard to find things to choose at restaurants, but I want to eat all the things here! And the staff are so nice!
Stopped in for a burger and a beer after a lot of walking. The Saturday deal of a burger and beer was perfect, and the burger was Huge! It wasn't too busy and we had a kid with us who appreciated the amount of chips she received. I can't say I've been at night, but for a very filling meal and a cool, reasonably priced beer this may be the place for you!
Went to BD for dinner a couple of weeks ago. The food was great. It was a little empty but we really enjoyed ourselves. We will be going back again on Thursday night. I'm not sure why you are getting bad reviews!
Came here with my family. We had various dishes, all beautiful. My steak was perfect.
Pasta dish was lovely. Great atmosphere and service! Highly recommend.
Was looking for a reasonably priced steak and was impressed with the range of pizzas and other foods. The steak was delicious and so was the sticky date pudding!
Was tasty food and good, kind stuff.
Food was great (Pork Belly), still the same layout as old tenants but attention to detail of your food is better. New start restaurant, but strongly recommend.
Came here on the weekend. Outstanding food and service, pizza was great and they served good portions - would recommend.
Good food. Booked via "first table'' and the cost of the meal was really good.
Good was truly divine and came out really fast. Such lovely staff and ambiance made it a really enjoyable evening
