The food and drinks were excellent.
The service was great, all the staff were very friendly and made sure to check up on our table. I would definitely visit the restaurant again.
Food was average and did not impress us. It seemed like some of the ingredients used were from tinned food and not freshly prepared.
I had the most awesome experience at Dash last night. Wow! I cannot understand why they were so empty, but big score for us as we had kinda had our own personal chef for the evening. 6 magnificent courses for restaurant week, with a few added extras. Go hungry. I enjoyed each and every dish, it was truly spectacular...

I cannot understand why they were so empty, but big score for us as we had kinda had our own personal chef for the evening. 6 magnificent courses for restaurant week, with a few added extras. Go hungry. I enjoyed each and every dish, it was truly spectacular. Awesome service and the most beautiful setting. Please do yourself a favour and go and visit this place. Awesome experience. Truly 1 of the best.
Prior to Restaurant Week I, like I suspect many other Capetonians, had never heard of Dash. And even after booking it was a struggle to find.

Read full reviewPrior to Restaurant Week I, like I suspect many other Capetonians, had never heard of Dash. And even after booking it was a struggle to find.
But once found it was well worth the trouble.
The food and service was excellent. Their is simply no other words to describe it - attentive without being over-bearing and the food was interesting and delicious!
For me the highlight was the Mushroom soup which was a complete taste and texture delight, but all the courses were top notch. My only complaint is that for a tasting menu the courses were a bit big, and being delicious (and a product of boarding school) I found difficult not to complete each course, but by the time the later courses came I was very full.
I will certainly be recommending to friends and family and am sure we will visit again in the near future.
Enjoyable evening. Food was good

About Dash Restaurant & Bar
Dash Restaurant and Bar
​While Dash caters to guests of the Queen Victoria Hotel, it is also a stand-alone restaurant and bar that encourages patrons from near and far to enjoy its delectable cuisine. The bar is the perfect after-work drinks venue, with an extensive selection of single-malt whiskies and wines. The gleaming mirror ceilings and double-sided fireplace enhance the prevailing sense of wonder, together with the panoramic view in front of you.
The menu at Dash is beautifully curated by the newly appointed Head Chef, Ashraf Arendse. The inspiration behind his new menu was the use of simple ingredients paired with bold flavours, presented in a striking manner. This makes for an unmissable dining experience.
The interiors of Dash complement the sense of drama achieved with the contents of the uneven, oval-shaped plates. The artwork is supplied by the Everard Read Gallery across from the Portswood precinct and every few months it is replaced with new work by local artists. The parquet wooden flooring, black leather seats, quirky black Gregor Jenkin tables, and other-worldly mirrored wall unite to create an intimate and provocative space. We believe that going out to dine should be a formal occasion and have a theatrical element to it. Between the aesthetically pleasing dishes and the dramatic interiors of Dash, this principle is expertly executed.
