Pony. Tapas Bar 55 Duke Street, Leamington, Cambridge, Waikato 3434

"I'd steer away from this place, had a very bad experience here. Me and my wife went here for dinner and nothing was correct. Waiter seemed lost. Full of "ummms" and "ahhhhs" for dinner we ordered Mozzarella bites. A pork burger and the steak. Which everything came at different times. Even when we wanted it all at once.The mozzarella bites were barely hot. And lacked any form of flavour. The pork burger was a letdown. *If your to look at reviews the owner likes to think his flavour is well known around town. For that I say. What flavour? There's not an ounce of it* Luke warm unseasoned pulled pork with what was supposed to be Grilled Pineapple. But it was cold to touch almost like it's straight from the fridge. Not grilled and fresh from the can. Chefs should strive for freshness. Not used can fruit on a burger. Pair that with the 10 chips you get and a table spoon of aioli.... What a joke. By the time I got through that meal my partners steak just arrived. She ordered it med rare. It came out Rare, we told the waiter, only to be told that our we were pretty much wrong and our steak was medium rare, this is a horrible way to address a situation like this. Customers drive your business. Treat them with respect. That's how you get loyal customers. we did send it back for it to be cooked more. But they gave us a whole new plate, don't get me wrong that's the correct thing to do. But we got absolute silence from the waiter. He didn't come over and Inform us or anything so we sat there and waited... And waited.. for another. 20-25 minutes eventually we got another plate. Once again the steak was rare and not how we ordered it. That paired with the non seasoned Smashed Potatoes brocoilini and heirloom carrots. The meal is memorable, for all the wrong reasons. I'd never come back here and tell others to steer away."

"I used to come here a lot last year but have since moved away. Came back so thought I’d dine here again. Sad to say my favourite server no longer works there, she had beautiful curly hair and a contagious smile. Still, excellent service and excellent food, would definitely recommend."
