    Me and my girls enjoyed our dinning experience at your restaurant last night from the food to the vibe and our friendly waiter Floyd. The food was to die for, especially for me I'm a vegetarian I'm so picky when it comes to what I order but your chef did an amazing job. Keep it up guys. Thanks Nicky

    Wow! Look! Whatever they're doing at Off the Menu - Food Emporium Port Elizabeth right now in the evenings is something next level! Besides the talented chefs, Julie, Chantelle and MJ, their front of house staff and waitrons are amazing! Every single meal was seasoned perfectly and the spaghetti... There's no restaurant in PE that can drop spaghetti like chef MJ! At the age of 22, this guy is serving up proper pukka pasta that is so al dente , you swear he's from the villaggio! Bravo OTM! You are fantastic!!

    Cooking of the stake is a bit inconsistent but be that said, it was still nice but could be better but everything else was excellent .👌

    Food and and service was amazing. From the start being greeted and seated by the hostess (Lihle), being served by the great waiter (Jason) and being checked on by the ambitious and exciting manager (Bisi). Our steaks were cooked to perfection and our drink glasses were always full. We were truly honoured when the Head Chef (Chantelle) came and checked in on us to make sure we were enjoying our food. Needless to say we were more than happy with our food and service.
