One of the first signature chef restaurants in the Cape Winelands, Jordan Restaurant brought Chef George Jardine’s brand of contemporary fare from city to country in 2009.

We are excited to announce that Marthinus Ferreira, of Dw eleven – 13 in Johannesburg, has taken over the management of The Jordan Restaurant, taking over from Chef George Jardine. The signature restaurant will trade under the name The Jordan Restaurant with Marthinus Ferreira.

Marthinus Ferreira has helped shape the South African food scene, with his flair for food gastronomy inspired by his childhood favourites and influences from abroad, having worked with some of the world’s top chefs, including Chef Gordon Ramsay & Chef Heston Blumenthal.

Gourmet Guide™ Description

Here, the outside comes in with expansive views of the lake and vineyards that are purely paintable. And so are the plates… Chef Marthinus Ferreira’s contemporary, sophisticated dining is premium. Dishes are flavourful, and sauces sublime. He’s a chef who has embraced the art of classical French cooking, infused with tastes gleaned from other European destinations.

Take a leap and order the tasting menu, as you’ll find it hard to choose from the à la carte; each plate has its own appeal. The bread course alone is a veritable feast, with merlot butter, a spinach salad oozing umami, olives, and a miniature version of a Greek salad served on a cucumber slice – all in the spirit of giving.

Mains are all drawcards, with the confit pork belly accompanied by pommes purée, buttered radish, fermented apple, remoulade, cranberry ketchup, and morel pork jus being a standout. All meals complement the array of premium Jordan wines on offer and others, creating a companionable dining experience that celebrates the place and its produce.

    Receiving banking details (an invoice) prior to date and time of arrival was problematic. Received above only after several emails and 5 phone calls and only once I was on the way with clients. That caused unnecessary stress

    Exceptionally good lunch. Roast dinner delicious. Friendly welcome and staff attentive but generally good not quite ‘on it’ at times. This didn’t detract from our enjoyment though. Would definitely return

    Beautifully located restaurant in the heart of the Stellenbosch wine region. The food was excellent with many nice surprises along the way. Excellent wine list with a great variety of good and affordable options. Service is welcoming and personal. All in all a lovely experience.

    We thoroughly enjoyed lunch at the Jordan Restaurant. Each course was exquisitely composed and harmonized perfectly. The service was, as always, attentive and very friendly. We especially appreciated that Marthinus Ferreira personally served us dessert. The only thing we would suggest improving is the acoustics in the restaurant; then we could enjoy the wonderful view of the vineyards even more.
