My friends and I decided we would go out for a nice meal, and decided to visit Tusk off the cuff. We waited to be seated for 10 minutes despite the restaurant being empty as they just did not seem bothered about sitting us. What's more we had to wait over half an hour for someone to take our order. Upon arrival of the food, it looked appealing however our spring roll entree was average at best. It tasted like it was out of a box we could have bought at the supermarket. For the main course we had to send it back to the kitchen as the pork was so undercooked. One of my friends even ended up with food poisoning later. Upon sending it back we received no apology from the wait staff whatsoever and we were refused when we stated that we wanted a new dish, and ended up paying for the undercooked one. Having consistently eaten out in Auckland area I generally think the restaurants are good, but Tusk was a major disappointment and left a bitter feeling afterwards. Service staff were unfriendly and it was not value for money.

Quite expensive but nice tidy environment. We haven't been back since because of the high pricing.
