    Birthday supper and though mentioned twice , no special effort. Gripes, menus need a wipe , windows need a clean, busboy needs to not interact with patrons and rush them to clean up. Nut all drinks were available and there was no wet wipes, seriously?? Food was good, though need proper explanation from staff and always the view was outstanding. All together, a good night out, but for a restaurant that sells top end champagne, u would expect better attention to detail

    Sisanda was phenomenal, she was so warm when I came to make our booking. I celebrated my 40th Birthday and had a splendid evening. My food was amazing, wine served at a perfect temperature. We had starters, mains and dessert. Not once did we have to wave to get attention from our waiter. He was present at all times, we often struggle to relax when being served because we both work in Hospitality. Thank you again.

    3x Rump steaks were raw, meals were sent back but return raw. Beef ribs tasted and looked like pork ribs. Seafood paella had no flavour and was not even close to a paella. The rest of the meals were mediocre,underwhelming and over priced.

    We loved our time there. Only issue I had we had paid upfront. I asked Musa to check our bill but he neglected to add his tip . So we had to pay over R1000 from my pocket
