We went the other night and both ordered medium rare steaks, we got 2 very different steaks mine under done my partners overdone. Very dissappointing for a steak house. The service was fine and the we were offered a free desert very nice but we were dissappointed with badly cooked steak at a steakhouse.

Awesome steak house, you can’t go wrong! We’ve ventured far and wide to find equal quality but the prices are through the roof (I’m looking at you, Angus Steak House!). I love the old fashioned western look…meals are huge and always perfectly cooked.

Slack service! Booked our table for 8pm got there and got told we have to wait outside coz people are still sitting at the table, they’ve eaten but they haven’t moved on. Waitress even had a cheek to ask us if we wanted to eat outside on the smokers deck, to which we replied firmly – AHH NO we don’t enjoy smelling smoke whilst eating! We didn’t get our table until close to 8.30pm GRR! Ordered our meals, which weren’t all that. Asked for steak to be “Well Done” it came out bloody. I think having to wait for our table that we booked way in advance during the week absolutely sucks! We will not come back to this place again and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone either.

I had lunch here with my friend and her little daughter a short while ago. The place is gorgeous and it’s very much kid-friendly, they even gave my friend’s daughter a colouring book to entertain her. The food itself was very nice, and good-size portions for the price we paid. Definitely worth the visit and would love to go back again sometimes.

“Broncos always aims to please and they certainly achieved this last night 02/11/3011″. Our committee of 16 adults pre- ordered our meals from the entrees, mains desserts, sides, breads & refreshments. Every single menu was on time cooked the ways we wanted it, very very geneous servings, excellent value for money (worth every single dollar). Approximately 10 of us took a doggy bag home, now isn’t that telling you something. absolute compliments to the “CHEF & WAITERS & WAITERESSES & BAR STAFF” Thank you all so so much, highly recommended to all other potential diners, I tell you, you will not be disappointed.

Went to eat at Broncos last night.. Service wasn’t great at all. Initially wanted our group whom booked 2 days in advance to sit at different tables I think not, so I ended up pulling a small table together and we squeezed shoulder to shoulder just to fit. Meals cam out at different times so found half of the table eating whilst the other half sat for about 20 mins for food to come out. Steak was sent back as Coyote steak was over cooked asked for medium come out past the point of well done.. My partner by that time of waiting 50 mins for food was hungry to decided to eat it anyway. Not a very good experience but I am willing to give this place another go as Friday was possibly there busiest nights.. Hope when we go back after calming down in about 6 months service is much better..

We went here as a group of friends and found it quite nice. It did take a while for the food to come out but when it did all our steaks were cooked beautifuly and they all came out at the same time so no one was left out. We were lucky to have some discount vouchers which left us only paying $40 per couple…otherwise it looked like we would be paying around $100 for two people including drinks and just a main. Good place if you have the money and good atmosphere too :)

What a shambles of a place! One excuse after another for long delays & ultimately not so good food. We had been here before & found it reasonable & “traveled” back to it – we shan’t be doing that again – don’t they realise we have “Other Choices” and don’t need to put up with slack, uncaring service! We will be going elsewhere! SUMMARY -20 minutes to be served, the 45 mins+ for a Scotch fillet- that was actually a rump?? at $28.50 EEEKKKK (the order was lost I reckon, but take ownership please). Tasteless chips, heavy sauces, and to top it off – rude, condescending (oh did I say staff that lie!! or do they actually believe what they say?), and “superior” senior staff.
RESULT – Inconsistent and not worth the gamble – not going there again and would NOT recommend it to anyone who has choice!

Had high hopes for this place because it was so busy when we got there. Had read about the cobb loaf so was looking forward to it. Very disappointed, thought it would be home made bread and the garlic butter had a very strange taste. The baby back ribs were v good and we were sorry we hadnt ordered them as a main because the 2 steak dinners were horrible. We had the Desporado and the Rustler and both steaks were rubbery and overdone. The potatoes and pumkin seemed like they had been cooked in deep fat fryer which made them very greasy. The service was quick but the food quality was very poor except for the rib entree. We had a voucher for 2 entrees and 2 main meals. When we went to pay we were charged extra for the garlic bread because it was not in the entree section. The lady would not let us have the garlic bread as an entree even though it cost less than the other entree items. Will definitely not be returning.

My Partner & I was in for dinner and i am a chef also, we had great service from as soon as we entered the restaurant.

Our food and drinks was tasty & lovely not rushed at all, we had 2 entree’s the Cobb loaf with garlic butter and baby back rib’s tasty we loved them, then followed with our mains 2 Crumb Chicken Breast Schnitzel with salad and fries and then a Banana Split and drinks also we enjoyed our self’s so much we will recommend Broncos to all our family & friends, for $76.00 that we spent for all that i think that’s pretty good value for our money.

good work

AAA+++

My wife and I went to Bronco’s on the basis of the reviews on this site. We went early around 17:45 on a week night. The service was fair, but the food was what only can be described as below standard, poor. Both of us agree that we have eaten better food on airplanes. We will definitely never visit this restaurant again.

One of my favourite places to go to eat, fantastic steaks, awesome meal sizes and friendly staff… especially love sitting on the outside deck in the summer with a cold drink, you should try their cocktails – delicious!

I would like to be able to rate this restaurant but as we waited for 15 min before finally giving up on any order to be taken. We watched 3 other groups come in and get served.
We gave up and walked out. I don’t think the staff laughing and joking behind the bar even noticed we’d even been there at all.
But it did mean we found a fantastic Thai restaurant at the Gardens in Manurewa. Thai Tradition. 4,1/2 stars.

Whilst the food was average, the service was terrible. It seemed like we were forgotten, after 25 minutes I asked for them to take our order. 20+ minutes I had to ask for the bread and milkshake we’d ordered. Then the mains arrived before we’d had time to eat the bread. No aplologies, nor acknowledgement of a mistake.

We went there for a casual dinner yesterday, I ordered ‘Surf n Turf’ and my partner ‘Coyote Special’ – both were fantastic, will definitely come back!
Booking recommended on Saturday nights as we had to wait quite a while at the bar.

Went for the first time last night and was completely blown away. This is the sort of place where the customers start passing out when they see the size of the meals that start arriving. Was there with a large group and not a single person had anything bad to say. The meals were absolutely huge and the deserts were no smaller. Highly recommended!!!

This place is fantastic. We often find ourselves skipping “new” restaurants in favor of our old favourite Bronco’s.
Food is always consistent, and tastes the same every time and the size does not change either. Their entrees are delicious and I would recommend trying the Cobb Loaf with whipped Garlic Butter. Its delicious!!
Prices are very reasonable for what you receive and service is usually good.
Have been going to Bronco’s since I was a kid and I would rate them very well to anyone who asked me.

Bronco’s is our favourite restaurant for any occasion. Just as perfect for entertaining overseas visitors as for a casual family dinner, we have never been let down by the food or the service. We can highly recommend the ‘melt in your mouth’ Garlic Cobb and the delicious ‘Pigs can Swim’. No matter what you order, you will not be disappointed!

My husband and I felt like a night out and made a choice to go to Bronco’s, the greeting on arrival was refreshing, smiles and happy see us. Table service I couldn’t fault, the hot cob is fabulous, could not fault the food, the steak was cooked to our perfection medium rare the variety of vegetables on the plate was great, and waitress checked with us if we were enjoying our meal. Wonderful around service, would not hesitate to go back. Thank you to the girls for making our night we were there 5.30pm on Tue 14 Jul 09

If its steak you’re after … they’re one of the few places that get it right. Food is of very high quality. Mostly service is great too, have only experienced one incidence where something was obviously wrong, perhaps short staffed, as they were very slow … but as regular diners, that was a oncer. Its a popular place, some of the waitresses seem to be rushed, but they get the job done. We’ve never had a complaint about the food. Good on ya Broncos !! Value for money.
