A decent dinner experience.
The venue has outdoor seating and is calm and relaxing. I had the pink salmon with roasted potatoes and ricotta cheese salad. The salmon was prepared well but felt it could have used a bit more seasoning. For dessert I had the Decadent Nutella waffle. The waffle was amazing and came with a strawberry cheese cake ice cream. Just wished there was a bit more of the ice cream because it was not especially filling while being rather expensive, but it was good.

Definitely no Vie in this restaurant
Either this restaurant was hard hit by Covid and has not recovered, or it is simply way beyond its sell- by date. It looks unkempt and neglected and its food was abysmal. I suspect it trades on its good location and the fact that one can sit outdoors. We made the mistake of booking a special birthday here. The day was totally spoilt. We asked for a table under the trees. We were placed furthest from the trees under hot umbrellas next to a smelly green pool surrounded by aging garden accessories. Our food order took so long to arrive that the birthday girl didn't even have time to cut and enjoy the cake, this after we advised them repeatedly that we needed to be somewhere at a specific time. The excuse was that a new menu had come out. Well then, tell me before I book so that I do not have to have our special day spoilt being your guinea ***s. The salmon that we ordered was completely unpalatable. It was still icy in the centre and the rice was hard and crunchy. We would have been sick had we eaten it. The pasta was chewy and the food was generally bland and boring. The worst was the owner. She said she would take my comments "into consideration" and had no clue how to handle how irate the whole experience had made us. We weren't charged for the salmon (I should hope not as we sent it back untouched and I didn't land up eating anything!!) but she clearly could not give a toss that we left there hungry and angry and charged us for everything else! Not even an apology. Her head manager did come to apologise to me afterwards, for which I was grateful. Wish I had booked somewhere else because this really spoilt a very special birthday.

Disgustingly racist service
<p>my dear friend reserved tables for her baby shower today from 13.30 to 16.30. During the programme and festivities, at 16.15 we were ordered by the manager to go and sit outside on the grass, no umbrella/gazebo provided as they were expecting "guests". At this time, we were planning to wrap up so that we can leave at 16.30, however, due to their shocking unprofessionalism they interrupted the programme. My friend kindly obliged and agreed to sit outside to avoid any drama and continue with her programme at 16.20. The inconvenience of trying to move the decor, with no help from managers/staff, we sat outside knowing there was 90% chance of rain. No apologies received since. We wrapped everything up, at 17.00 my friend requested for the bill such that she could settle it. To her surprise, the waiters added items she did not order. By this time, the "guests" who were to arrive had not arrived. The bill she had to settle came up to R12k. She settled it. The owner had no shame whatsoever, he did not even attempt to sort out the discrepencies. Clearly his main concern was to make sure that all black people were chased out of their establishment. What a negative and frustrating experience. No regard to an 8 month old, heavily pregnant woman! racism should never be tolerated in a civilized society!</p>

Incredible Vibe with Excellent Service
La Vie En Rose is just such a magical restaurant in the heart of Illovo Johannesburg. I had the privilege of having a high tea for my 40th at this beautiful establishment. The service levels from this restaurant were just outstanding. They are friendly, accommodating and flexible when it comes to organising a function and making your day extra special. They really exceeded my expectations and can highly recommend them.<br> <br> Thank You guys so much again, we will definitely be back.
