    Service was incredibly slow but friendly. Small things weren't taken care of eg removal of empty bottles, salt and pepper present on table. Salads were very good. T-bones not. Onion soup excellent. Lamb chops good. Very empty.

    Hi Anita, Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the salads, onion soup, and lamb chops, and appreciated the friendly service. We're sorry the experience was let down by slow service, missed details at the table, and T-bones that didn’t meet expectations. Your comments have been shared with our team so we can improve. We’d love the chance to make it up to you—please join us for a complimentary dinner for two. Just email us at info@thewes.co.za to arrange your visit.

    Besides the fact that our table and chairs were not sturdy, it was an extremely awkward position to be seated. It was so uncomfortable because the staff were constantly looking at our table and whispering to each other whilst looking at our table, it created such an uncomfortable ambience for my family. Besides being billed for an additional person who did not EXIST, management finally corrected our bill. Once we left the restaurant, I received a call from the manager INSTRUCTING ME I should turn around and come back, because the payment did not go through!!!! The manager shouted at me, I said we will turn around to clear up this issue because on my side the payment was deducted from my account! After we turned around, few minutes later before reaching the restaurant out waitress called to inform us the payment is in fact reflecting. No apology from the manager for his rudeness and accusational tone!! ZERO STARS, DO NOT RECOMMEND.
