    We were impressed with your friendly chef's, Suleman, Malcolm and Kwazi. These guys are friendly and amazing, making sure their customers were satisfied with the food.

    Unfortunately due to corona virus I couldn’t attend as I wanted to take proper precautions. Initially to book I tried numerous times to make a telephonic reservation only to be put on hold and cut off, despite hearing the good ratings for the food I had to book online. Which was extremely disappointing thereafter to cancel I was still put on hold and nobody took my call. Terrible service and I’m glad I couldn’t be there to honor my reservation
