Found on the rooftop of The Leonardo, Alto234 is the highest urban bar in Africa. Redefining ‘drinks with a view’, the rooftop bar and viewing deck boasts 360-degree views, overlooking the lush landscape of Joburg. Serving only the world’s finest when it comes to drinks, tapas and service, Alto234 is one of the most aspirational and exclusive places in South Africa to be. It is quite simply described in three words: High. On. Life.

    I was overcharged with Bar Tapas items . Among our order are two Alto Magnum, which has a price of R 65 each indicated in the menu. But when the bill came, the Alto Magnum price became R 95 each, and thus I was overcharged R 60 in total. I did not argue with the waitress due to politeness, but this really ruined my supposedly 100% good experience with this Alto 234 visit. Hope you could rectify such thing in future.

    A literal mount olympus with a view only deserving for those aspiring for a test of divinity... For once you can look down upon the earth and enjoy the marvellous work of the mighty Mzansi workmanship. Loved it!!! The food, the smiling service and the atmosphere!!! The absolute depiction of perfection!

    It was so nice to meet your management and staff! We had such a laugh about a headless photo taken of us by one of your waitresses, thank you!

    Hello Juan. Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re so glad you had a great time and that our team could be part of such a fun and memorable moment. The “headless photo” gave us a good laugh, too. Sometimes, it’s those unexpected moments that make the experience even more special, and we are so glad our team could give you such an experience. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with the team, and we can’t wait to welcome you back again soon for more great memories (and hopefully with even more memorable photos!).
