The joke of all restaurants

Avoid this restaurant at all costs. The fantastic venue and decor convinced us to book a table for international friends visiting SA. After a terrible ordeal, we left embarrassed and hungry to say the least. Upon booking our table, we called twice to secure the booking, but arrived to find no table booked. Shunted to the corner we decided to make the most of our evening. The waiter, pleasant and sweet, had no food specials or meals to recommend, and when asked, he recommended the lamb curry, for the seafood specialty restaurant?! 1,5 hrs later, after 3 bread baskets and two bottles of wine, and some very hungry guests - the waiter decided to inform us that there was no kingklip and we had to change our orders. The poor guest of ours had to change her order three times due to no stock. The third time was after waiting 1,5 hrs. When the food arrived, sadly everyone found it obismal - the side roasted vegetable selection with the lamb and steaks consists of two carrot sticks, a quarter of quickly chopped tomato and some raw onion. Not much of a roasted veg selection is it? The T Bone steak was full of sinu and extremely over cooked. And as for the third selection of fish, the entrire plate was sent back and our guest decided not to eat after the entire ordeal. What was planned to be a lovely welcome dinner turned into an embarrassing nightmare. We had to explain ourselves to three different management members each and every time, luckily the third time, the manager agreed to provide the meal on the house, and let us be on our way. If you are looking for a long night, a lovely view and tons of home made bread, then this is the place for you. If you are looking for service and a good meal, then avoid this restauarant at all costs and don’t be fooled by the pretty decor and scenic positioning of the venue.
