hoosegow charcoal restaurant

having purchased another dinner voucher deal, this time it was time to try hoosegow charcoal restaurant 419 magill road, saint morris. when you don't know what to expect from a new restaurant, a voucher is a great way to try it. this was another unexpected great experience. our voucher deal consisted of the meat plank for two with char-grilled eye fillet, chilli chicken, chorizo, olives, vegetables and charred ciabatta (bread) along with a glass of wine each. what an amazing offer at $28.00 for the two of us!.......

a little disappointed or.... a little disappointed

ordered a $50 wagyu steak, big plate, over cooked steak, wasn't tender at all and barely any sides on the plate.

food is amazing, service is amazing, ambience is amazing. our group had a variety of entrees and mains and they were all delicious. nothing more left to say but give it a try you won’t regret it.

great restaurant. we had dinner tonight at hoosegow as a family of five and loved it. food was beautiful and service was good. our kids are 8, 7 and 5 and they really enjoyed themselves. excellent service. would definitely recommend to others. st morris is becoming an area of good restaurants.

i could not rave more about this fantastic restaurant! i was visiting family (i'm living and working in auckland), and had a look at zomato to see what was new and trending in terms of restaurants around adelaide. hoosegow charcoal restaurant was on that list, and i thought, "why not, lets give it a go".

i made a reservation online well in advance. when we arrived, our server showed us to our table and exclaimed that she was excited because i was their first international guest - i tried to say that i was originally from adelaide, but they wouldn't have a bar of it! they started us off with some table water, and a bowl of popcorn (free), which was delicious - my nan's friend wanted to tip it into her purse and take it all home with her (maybe they could sell it as a 'take home' option?). 

everything on the menu looked delicious, but the meat plate for two looked particularly good. $119, but worth every cent - it was enough for all three of us, and with more to take home! in fact, my nan and i had what was left for dinner the next day (they were happy to pack leftovers for us). we also had the confit garlic bulb, charred ciabatta, butter, pecorino as a starter, and a plate of squid.

the service was attentive, and the staff dolled on us all night, even down to showing us to the door when we were ready to leave, and opening it for us. it was a lovely experience and i definitely want to go back with friends the next time i am in adelaide.

also, as an aside - they're on dimmi and qantas restaurants, so make sure you book through them to get your points!

fantastic service - the staff here are attentive, friendly and talkative; but not to the point where it's intrusive. 
the food here is pricey - but well worth the price. i'd go so far to say it's one of the best steaks in adelaide (the ms5 rump in medium rare is to die for!).

if i could give this place 100 stars i would do it without hesitation. i went here tonight for my work end of year dinner and was blown away with not only the food but the service, ambiance and overall atmosphere. the menu is not cheap but the quality and presentation of the food is worth every dollar spent. all the dishes were excellent but my main meal (wagyu eye fillet with truffle mash, mushroom and asparagus) would easily be one of the best meals i have ever had in my life. the flavours were out of this world and every mouthful was heaven! whoever designed this menu is a genius and the staff cooking it are equality as talented! thanks for a great experience!

went here last week and fell in love with the ambience almost immediately. it feels like you’re taken away from adelaide and entered a south american villa with its bright red tones, decor, sounds and smells. the staff here are so delightful and ready to help in any way with smiles all round. we had 13 people altogether but we ordered individual meals. the menu offers a variety of appetisers, mains, steak from the chargrill or seafood. i had the spicy, sticky ribs with fat chips, chipotle, and pineapple salsa. i absolutely love every part of my dish! my partner had the rib eye steak and ate it so fast because it was grilled perfectly and he couldn’t resist. others ordered the meat platter which came with a combination of the chargrilled meats and ribs. i will definitely be back to this restaurant and have recommended it to all my friends already.

everything is superb and staff very friendly

great food and service, you get what you pay for. charcoal with delicious flavours, fresh and delicious. worth a visit! will definitely return. loved the vanilla panna cotta! we shared the meat plate, was more than enough for two.

the staff is average and not very attentive and customer feels like they are in a production line. the food is tasty but all main meals have to be ordered with sides which then becomes a very expensive exercise. ambiance of the restaurant feels like youre in a big rectangle without atmosphere. been here a few times now and hope they improve.

first time here. we tried it because of the entertainment book offer. tasty food, large servings, smoky flavors with some spice. we had the beef brisket, lamb back strap, signature chicken dish and sa gulf prawns. chips were tasty and they allow byo

great service and generous portions. brought my wife and baby for an early dinner, having not been there since they opened. my ribeye steak was huge and cooked as requested. wife ordered the barramundi which was alright. loved the roasted garlic on toasted bread as the entree. well priced and will be back again.

really good service and fantastic food! portions are quite large so be aware. the chillie mussels were really good but the mexican squid wasn’t my favorite. the chillie chicken and the lamb were equally good and the tres leche was good.

fantastic service. the food was next level brilliant (the nicest brisket i’ve ever had) and appropriately priced. the dining experience is perfect with just the right amount of light/music. absolutely loved it and can’t recommend high enough.
