Welcome to GOLD Restaurant where dining is a celebration of food, flavours, family and friends, accompanied by live entertainment. Come and celebrate with us.

While honouring African culinary traditions we combine these with modern flavours and techniques to serve up a sophisticated African feast that we change seasonally.

African food is traditionally shared and enjoyed with family and friends. Similarly, our 14-dish tasting menu is served in generous individual and shared portions. Each dish is brought to your table with country of origin, cooking techniques and spicing explained. All our Halaal-certified meat, poultry and fish dishes come with vegetarian or vegan substitutes. Please inform us of your dietary preferences when booking so that we can adjust accordingly.

Family is central to African culture and children are welcome. There is no dress code and were open 7 days a week. We welcome walk-ins when capacity allows but we cannot guarantee availability, so we urge you to pre-book.

    Honestly, the experience was quite disappointing. The restaurant is clearly a tourist trap rather than a place that truly represents authentic African cuisine. The whole setup feels more like a performance than a genuine dining experience — overly staged and commercial. The food itself was underwhelming. The presentation was nice, but the flavors were flat and lacked the richness and spice that make African food so special. If you want to taste real African food, there are definitely better and more authentic local spots to try.

    Great experience. My favourite dish was the ostrich. I liked that there were dishes from numerous countries in Africa.
