Last week, we heard about this new restaurant that had an Unlimited Wagyu offer for only P899 per person!
The restaurant is called Hogs & Cattle Steakhouse, and it is located at the al fresco dining area on the ground floor of Century City Mall, beside Starbucks. You have to pass through that area with the ATMs. I didn’t even know that there was another door there!
J being a steak addict, we definitely had to make time to try this unli wagyu!
HOGS & CATTLE STEAKHOUSE
Booking a reservation is by Facebook. They have a BOOK NOW button on their Facebook page. However, I seemed to have run into some trouble with our reservation, and I didn’t receive any confirmation message. I ended up messaging Hogs & Cattle on FB and working out a reservation with them via Messenger.
Hogs & Cattle Steakhouse is still on soft opening as of this writing. The place is casual but clean, going for a rustic vibe with their chairs made out of pallets. However, the blue lighting at the back seemed out of place. It was also messing up my food photos and giving them a blue cast, and made the food look less appetizing. Wish they’d made the lighting light yellow, like sunlight, instead.
They also provided me with bag hooks when they saw my bag slung over my chair, so that was thoughtful. 
UNLIMITED WAGYU
The unlimited wagyu comes with soup, and sides of your choice (rice, mashed potatoes, vegetables; you can change your side for each round). The waiter also asked us how we wanted our steak (rare, medium, well done).
A small bowl of mini pandesal was served with some slices of butter. Skip this unless you really want some bread.
Next, they served us this corn soup:
I asked for my steak medium, while J asked for his steak medium rare.
My round 1:
The steak is tender, slices like butter, and I didn’t get any gristle (litid) on the meaty parts. At P899 for unlimited wagyu, I am not expecting any high grade wagyu here, but it is a good place to eat as much good steak as you want, without spending a small fortune. Yes, the steak is very good compared to steaks that you can get elsewhere that are priced below P1,000.
The meat used is definitely wagyu, just not a high grade one, but for P899 for unli, there’s no cause to complain. The cuts served are definitely on the fatty side – some people like the steak fat, some don’t.
Round 2:
The steaks are well-seasoned with herbs and spices.
However, J likes his steak simple, flavored with just some nice salt, to better appreciate the meat. So while he agrees that the steak was deliciously seasoned, he hoped there was an option for a simpler flavor.
As for me, I liked the steak, but I wanted the garlic on top to be roasted until it’s so soft that I could just spread the garlic paste on my steak.
There’s a bottle of steak sauce on the table. I also liked the steak sauce. The steak sauce has some tamarind in it, it adds a different tang to regular steak sauce.
A note on the steak’s doneness: The steak here leans toward the more “cooked” spectrum. For example, J’s medium rare steak was almost medium, and my medium was close to medium-well.
To refill: We were served a plate of steak + side of choice (mashed potatoes). After we finished round 1, we just called the waiter. He took our empty plates and came back with new plates of steak + side. Keep going until you’re full.
You can ask for another round of soup (the soup is also unlimited).
SERVICE
Service was okay, the waiters were responsive and fast when we asked for refills / next round. However, we had to ask them about their offers, and we had to keep asking questions about it because they don’t volunteer the information – simple questions that customers will most probably ask like “What is included in the unli wagyu?” or “What is this sauce on the table for / what is it supposed to be paired with?” or “How do we get a refill?”
I still have no idea where their wagyu comes from or what grade it is. Our waiter also couldn’t tell me how many grams of steak they serve per serving – it depends daw. Okay. I guess they cut the steaks based on how it looks about the right size for one serving… We don’t even know if they have a no-leftovers policy, but we just erred on the side of no leftovers.
The restaurant is still on soft opening so these things are expected. This is an area for improvement that is easy to fix. Once they seat the customers, the servers should probably give a short overview to the customers of how the unli wagyu offer works, and the customers can just ask more questions if they want to know more.
SUMMARY
P899 per person for Unlimited Wagyu?! GO NOW! I expect this place to be packed, with long lines outside! It’s still on soft opening so very few people have probably heard about it yet.
If you have never tried wagyu before because they’re just too darn expensive, this will let you eat all the wagyu that you want for only P899! Go get all your meat-loving loved ones to try this now!
The steak is delicious and well-seasoned. Of course, don’t go there expecting super high grade wagyu that cost thousands of pesos per order, but if you just want to eat some tender, butter soft steak until you can’t eat any more… this is the place to go. The unli also includes their soup and sides. 
There’s no need to wait for special occasions anymore before having steak (because it’s expensive). Now, you can have your fill of wagyu steak any time you have a craving because it’s only P899!
This is very value for money, especially if you can eat a lot of steak!

Hi! Do you have an idea on how long the unli wagyu steak promo is? Like when will it end
Hello, I don’t know how long the promo is going to be. But I get the impression that this is going to be a regular offer of the restaurant.
tama lang ang tawag nila na WAGYU!
WAG YU magpa UNLI kung cocontrolin nyo rin pala ang iseserve niyong pagkain! nagBAYAD ang tao tapos cocontrolin niyo rin kung gaano karami ang kakainin ng customer niyo? nakakahiya kayo!
Makati Branch yan! it was my first and NEVER AGAIN!
I asked them through PM in FB regarding the origin of their beef. They said that they are serving locally raised wagyu cattle, grade 5. They do not serve prime cuts for the wagyu-all-you-can however you can order them A la carte.
So, it’s grade 5. Thanks for letting us know that they also serve a la carte. I was too focused on the Wagyu-All-You-Can that I forgot to even look at the menu 🙂
Thank you very much for the info, Allan S 🙂 that’s helpful info!
i have read many reviews on this steakhouse and most of them are HIGHLY positive and that is why my wife and two children aged 7 and 4 decided to eat our dinner there evening 7 pm of oct 5 2018. it was a big let down. and i will explain why. when we went in the restaurant, the first thing i asked was if my 2 kids are entitled to half prices. we are familiar with practically all buffet places and eat all you can deals and most if not all of these establishments gave us either free buffet or half price for my 7 year old daughter. NOT HERE, the manager (i presume) told me my 7 year or daughter will be charged FULL PRICE of their eat all you can wagyu and as a consolation to what he just said, he said my 4 year old daughter can eat free. and he also added that since i am a senior citizen, i can avail of my senior citizen discount. i was shocked initially because of the unfairness but mentally, i decided to proceed on these terms because if their wagyu was that good, it will not have to be a big deal anyway. so my 7 year old skinny daughter get to eat all you can wagyu at full price of 899.00. i would understand if she was built like a sumo wrestler – a clue that she was a big eater but what the heck, i said okay to the manager. first came four bowls of creamy mushroom soup which tasted quite good – my 2 daughters and wife asked for seconds of the soup. then came the mini bread rolls with butter which were also good tasting. i asked for the all you can eat wagyu AND prawns for 899.00 but i was told that their prawns are only available on certain days of the week and definitely not today so i have no choice except the wagyu. i opted for a rare wagyu but was told they do not serve rare wagyu and i will be served a medium rare one. i wanted rare wagyu so that i could see for myself the fat marbled in with the lean parts of the steak as a reviewer of this restaurant was praising as a sign of an authentic wagyu beef as so many dishonest restaurants do not serve authentic wagyus and that the marbled fat among the lean meat is proof of authentic wagyu. UNFORTUNATELY my medium rare wagyu DID NOT HAVE ANY MARBLED FAT AT ALL. ONLY THE EDGES OF lean meat have thin pieces of fat attached to the lean met – in my estimate, the fat is only less than half a percent of the volume of the whole meat. I reached over to my wife’s medium cooked wagyu to see if hers had any marbled fat in it, i did the same and check my 2 daughter’s pieces of meat – again nada, nothing – NO MARBLED FAT as claimed by an eater on another blog. it was very lean, very hard to chew and tasted like a regular piece of sirloin steak. i began to doubt if i was really served authentic wagyu considering the lack of marbled fat. so after finishing my HARD TO CHEW steak, i and my wife ordered our second round. she also found her steak to be unappetizing and hard to chew with lots of gristle. she and i ended up eating both our 2 daughters’steak as they did not like them as well. as for the second and third round of steaks, they were just as hard as the first, more like lean sirloin with NO MARBLED FAT – NADA. my wife and i discussed that our dining experience was very very bad because of the food but the service was quite good – unfortunately we were there for the food, not the service as were were constantly asked if we need more bread, more soup, more steaks etc. – except they never asked if our steaks tasted good or not. so i would say hogs and cattle is not a child friendly place and not oriented to families with children since children have to pay full price except maybe 4 years and below gets to eat free. maybe management there never ate at all the leading buffet places where children below certain ages or height like my 7 year old daughter pays half price. so families with children below 8 and above 4 should avoid this place. my conclusion – they most probably ran out of authentic wagyu during our visit on oct 5 2018 and was possibly forced to serve us batangas sirloin beef steaks which were hard to chew and not that flavorful at all. i shall not eat there again.
Hi Alberto, sorry to hear about your experience. When we visited Hogs & Cattle last Jan. 2017, they were still on soft opening. We haven’t been back since then, too many other restaurants opening up, so I don’t know if they have been able to maintain their quality.
