Read full reviewRestaurant Week October 2022: What a disappointment. Booked for late lunch. Announced myself as the person who made a reservation and yet was given ordinary menus. Waiter seemed like he just graduated from a Spur. Restaurant was relatively empty. Food was below average for Restaurant week. Wine was good. They charge for “tap” water by the bottle. We know this as they billed for bottled water and filtered water (rectified on bill on request) .The starter was good,Salmon Trout. The mains were really bad. Both ordered the same. Very tough rump steak with worn down, bulky wood handled steak knives. The potato chips tasted like the mash potatoes type were used. The ultimate disappointment was the dried out Chocolate Tart, clearly shrunken away from the edges. To top it, with sour Chantilly cream. I haven’t felt this disappointed to part with my hard earned money in a while. They compensated with on the house coffee. I expected more from this restaurant especially as it has an affiliation with another well rated Botanicum, the location (Constantia) and the proximity of Groot Constantia.
Fabulous food and service. Highly recommend.
Outstanding evening, great venue and Melissa was an incredible waitron
