Read full reviewFood was not the greatest, you could tell they refrigerate their desserts and plate when needed, they were not freshly made, even the steamed dumplings were hard at the top the texture of the dumpling pocket was rubbery. Rump steak was not tender, but I enjoyed the Arancini, even though the mozzarella cheese wasn't fully melted inside. I was expecting better food from this restaurant because of how highly priced the set menu was, but they delivered average hotel restaurant food. It was disappointing considering that they want to come across as a high-end place. The waiter took forever to get anything to the table, which also added to our frustration with the experience. They have a beautiful wine cellar that I would have loved to be introduced to and taken for a walk in to pick a bottle.

Read full reviewUnfortunately the evening was underwhelming. It included incorrect orders, delays, ice cold water instead of room temperature, extremely loud fellow patrons, an offer of cocktails then withdrawn owing to no menu, having to request cutlery, and an inedible main course (beef rump). The host was considerate and put effort in to address the subpar experience. We will not be back and I have cancelled a birthday booking that had been made for next week.
The service was absolutely amazing, our server Thandeka was awesome, she knows exactly when to check in and always leaves the table with you smiling. We came for a birthday dinner and Thandeka got us a complimentary happy birthday dessert that was out of this world. Definitely coming back soon.
Had the best experience this past weekend. From the service to the food and the relaxing atmosphere. 1st to 3rd course was a beautiful experience. I could have more of that Tiramisu 🥰
Arancini, steak and chocolate fondant. The perfect trio. The food was outstanding, the service was amazing.
