I'm not normally a fan of buffets, but the range of starters here alone was exceptional. The main courses were a little disappointing in terms of options, but the quality was good. The service and attitude of the staff was excellent and the setting and ambience is very pleasant indeed.

A great restaurant. We were greeted and offered complimentary drinks by the friendly staff. Our waitress was lovely, and special attention was offered to my pregnant daughter, making sure she was comfortable and enjoying her meal.

The décor and comfort of the seating was very good and we enjoyed a wonderful meal in a good atmosphere with excellent service.

The range of starters was great as was the main meal.

Thank you Punchinello

I spent a wonderful lunch time with some colleagues at Punchinello's Restaurant yesterday and the value-for-money from this Mediterranean style dining was superb!

Ambiance: The outdoor Venice inspired waterside tables watching the pond below and stunning black swans really does add a unique feature that few other restaurants in the area can rival and it is easy to forget that you are sitting in Fourways as opposed to Italy.

Our waiter, Erick was very accommodating and attentive during lunch, and our two-course lunch comprised of a large buffet of freshly prepared Meze items off their banqueting table and then the Grilled Chicken Supreme with Porcini mushroom sauce, new potato and Fettuccine pasta with shaved Parmesan.

It is no wonder Chef Jade Sullaphen has garnered praise from icons like Prince Charles and Bill Clinton! Beautiful spot for a lazy afternoon on a sunny day!

Punchinello’s offers guests an award-winning Mediterranean mezze, Venetian inspiration dining. Regularly regarded as the best restaurant in Fourways and one of the finest Mediterranean restaurants in Johannesburg this is fine-dining that never becomes fussy-dining.
