    Waiter didn't ask drink order properly on new arrivals. I had to wait for him to come bsck with the drinks and then order a drink. Warm beers glasses,. When the waiter was needed, no waiter around or even manager. Had to remind the other waiter who also took orders of the missing dessert order. Food was very good but service was atrocious. Not what I expected.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really sorry that the service fell so far short of the standard we expect, especially with the drinks, warm glasses, missing dessert and difficulty getting assistance when needed. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the food, but we understand that great food means little when the service isn’t up to standard. We’d really appreciate the opportunity to address this properly. Please email me directly at jonathandc@calistossilverstar.co.za so I can look into what happened and see where we can improve. Kind regards, Jonathan

    Lovely experience. Staff managed well with a large table of 16. Food was excellent with the steaks being a particular highlight. Will be back.

    The service was exceptionally fast and friendly. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate my elderly parents and aunt, making sure they were comfortable and well looked after throughout our visit. Their kindness, patience and attentiveness made the experience especially enjoyable for all of us. Thank you for the wonderful service!
