Furnace - Upper Hutt

Ordered the pork belly........ bad choice Very fatty. No crackling soggy floppy skin and the veges were water logged..........

Friends and family turned up for a 4oth birthday last night. Totally unimpressed. The staff just didn't help the situation at all. Communication is the key. Orders were taken around 7pm yet we were left waiting for over n hr for our food. Yes the restaurant was busy... but at no point did the wait staff say anything to us.. left wondering,even asked where was our food.. was told it was being plated up, about 15 mins later the food did come. And unfortunately it was NOT worth the wait.... pizza was clearly overcooked, items that were on the menu did not appear on the plate.. and who burns either carrots or beans. Not happy at all. And unfortunately will not be coming back and telling family of the bad experience too.

Had my step daughters 21st there on Saturday, highly recommend the Tote Bar for a Party. Our event was in the back garden bar and it was great, staff were excellent and the food we ordered was brought out on time and was really good. would recommend them to anyone

Love the Tote, love the staff, food and down to earth Locals

Had all you can eat rubs. Amazing ribs!!! Meat fell off the bone! Will be back for the waffles
