    The service was great however no one told us that we had to pay R200 to cut birthday cake at the restaurant. We were only informed after. That’s disappointing considering the whole restaurant saw the dinner party walk in with the cake, someone should’ve told us.

    So, I told the waiter that served us that your standard has dropped. 1. I made a reservation for 3pm for 3 people, I specifically asked for a table close to the water as it was warm on the day. When we arrived at 3pm sharp, there was NO TABLE RESERVED, we had to walk around with a waiter looking for an empty table. We were seated on a table with asofa, the table was dirty and not sanitized as we were going to occupy it, I had to call someone to bring the sanitizer. We sat down and waited for a duration of 20 minutes before we could be given the menu or asked what we were going to drink. Eventually someone came, took our drinks orders and disappeared for another 10 minutes. 2. I asked for my lattè to be extra hot, I got a cold lattè. As alluded above, I told the waiter before I gave him his tip which was more that 10 percent of my bill. The food was divine, my beef ribs were scrumptious, I had ordered them with mash but got chips instead, the waiter quickly rectified the error, hence I tipped him confidently. Yep, that's all I can say. I think you have too much people on the ground, there were 2 ladies in long pinafore green dresses walking around laughing not serving people or paying attention to the patrons. With COVID-19 still around we need to be extra cautious, I guess. There's no social distancing especially from the main entrance door. There's no order by the door at all. Hopefully, I will come again.
