First of all it was a lovely warm welcome from the owner, made us feel right at home as he (sorry forget your name) talked about where we came from as he used to live around those parts. The menu was fantastic to start with, I could have had many of the dishes but opted for the most amazing slow cooked baby back ribs and let me tell you, I wasnt disappointed, possibly the best I've ever had. Completely fell off of the bone and had a lovely sweet glaze to them. My partner had the steak and again, tender and cooked to perfection. Very authentic South African dishes and you can tell the owners loved what they do and it shows in their hosting skills and warm welcome with amazing cooked food with generous portions and very well priced. Nice atmosphere too and well decorated place, loved the background music too 😃 Honestly made our trip a memorable one and I will be 100% back one day.Keep doing what your doing guys, amazing place yous have ♥️

Good menu, excellent meal and great service. Thank you.

What an amazing place. Visiting from Newcastle and would happily get the train just to eat here. I had the curry which was delicious and my son loved the chicken and chorizo kebab. The staff were lovely. Very friendly atmosphere. Excellent service. Would highly recommend.
