Excellent atmosphere, attentive and fun staff and fabulous food. We had the chef's menu and chose the oysters with chorizo and the ravioli with lamb. The oyster dish was divine - the salty and warm chorizo and fresh peas really complemented the oyster without over powering it and the ravioli dish was light, delicate and delicious. The other course all fabulous. We decided to add an extra dessert and share half each rather than share one dessert between 2 - we were please with our decision. Not a large menu selection but rather great food done well. The coffee guys does fun and creative crème art - Noel got a koala face in his macchiato!!! Looking forward to our next visit
They were able to fit us in at the last minute (and it truely was full). The food came quickly and it was outstanding. The beef � carpaccio was probably one of the best ever. The duck was also a standout dish. The wine selection was appropriate with some lovely local wines. The decor was quirky and fit the style of food to a tee. Would definitely recommend as a place to dine no matter what the occasion.
Should not forget the service, it was also perfect, with just the correct amount of attentiveness without being intrusive.
We had a lovely evening on the 14th October at The Black Footed Pig during our weekend away in Hobart.
We hadn't really planned - and hadn't booked. It was a busy Saturday night - yet your wonderful accomodating staff were able to find room for the two of us to enjoy a meal.
Opting for the Tapas menu (so we could try - and share - a variety of dishes), we ordered the crispy fried sardines, the scallops, pork and beef albondigas, roasted carrots and parsnips, plus the Moorish spiced crispy lamb ribs - washed down with a delicious Spanish Rioja tempranillo. Each of the dishes were carefully prepared, beautifully presented and totally delicious.
The meal exceeded expectations. The staff were professional, efficient and welcoming at the same time. Our only downside was perhaps we should have ordered fewer tapas dishes so we had room for dessert - hahaha.
Thanks for a wonderful evening in Hobart - it was memorable for all the right reasons! We'll be telling friends of our experience suggest they visit when in town.
