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.

    Wir sind immer wieder gerne hier. Super Setting, extrem netter und kompetenter Service. toll angerichtetetes Essen. Dieses mal leider mit kleinen Schwächen. Qualität und Garzeit des Springbocks lies zu Wünschen übrig. Der Kabeljau war auch kein Highlight. Bitte nicht den überlagerten weissen Trüffel anbieten. Nicht würdig. Wir kommen aber gerne wieder Jordan ist immer ein Highlight für uns.

    Have been going to Jordan’s for over 10 years and this was by far the most disappointing meal we have had. Starters were over complicated and drowned in sauces, the sirloin dry and chewy and the springbok just dry. Jordan’s to me in the past has been about simple food using the best ingredients cooked really well - it’s now over complicated and came as such a disappointment given our history with the place and breathtaking views. The prices also seem to have gone up exponentially which is fine if you are delivering amazing quality but that just wasn’t there. Interestingly for a Friday it seemed half empty and not a South African in sight - I can’t help feeling the locals are voting with their feet which is a massive mistake. The staff on a more positive note couldn’t have been more apologetic and understanding but I really think a proper re think of the menu is required.

    Food was not tasty unfortunately, french fries on salad was not particularly a good idea. Onion rings was not creative and it just lowered the scale Being in so many fine dining restaurants around cape town and around the world, it was not a satisfactory good fine dining experience.
