alpine restaurant

this is one of our favourite restaurants! thefoodis always good, and we love trying out the albanian menu.
we shared the vegetarian pizza with a salad. excellent!
the little miss got free dry wors sticks to munch on, and we ordered a plate of chips with that!
they have a large variety wine menu, and we plan to come back for that!

our department decided to treat our bosses for bosses day lunch and as alpine is across the road we thought this place would be ideal for us. well where do we start ...... the restaurant was almost empty, and as we only had 1.5 hours to eat and get back to the office, we thought we would be done in good time - we were a table of 8 and ordered quite simple meals - the meals took well over an hour to be served - and only when we complained was it finally served - thefoodwas definitely not up to standard - the chicken was old and looked liked it had been left out for days - the burgers were served with very stale rolls which just fell apart - the poor waitress requested the manager to come and speak to us to hear the complaints and he totally outright refused - he ignored us as if we were not there - this was a very dissatisfying experience and a total waste of our hard earned money and time - not to say the embarrassment we felt in front of our bosses - needless to say we will never return.

my partner and i went for our dinner date here . it was my first time here and we both thought it best to make a reservation in case it turned out to be full . upon arrival the place was quite empty but rather safe than sorry .

from the moment we got there the manager welcomed us and was very friendly . our waiter ,wellington was really great and provided an excellent service. the place was dimly lit and had a romantic mood . i wasn’t too fond of the bathrooms they weren’t too clean and had cleaning material lying around . and they were outside bathrooms .

to eat i ordered the alpine turf combo with cinnamon butternut as a side dish and we had a bottle of wine . i was very pleased with myfood,the fillet was cooked as requested . the only thing that was a let down was the butternut it was too big and didn’t have much flavor . my partner ordered the chicken and prawns ,which they found the chicken to be too salty . and the manager was so kind and offered us complimentary shooters /coffee / dessert . we opted for the shooters ,bottoms up lol !

i also noted the place has affordable weekday specials so i’m definitely coming here again .

this is a great and affordable spot. would definitely recommend it .

this is my favourite butcher and the restaurant self is just as wonderful. you can sit outside under the trees and enjoy a lovely lunch. their prices are very reasonable and thefoodis delicious. their steaks comes with bone marrow! the pork chops, pizzas and salads are mouth-watering i've enjoyed every meal i've had here and i've been a few times

we've been going to alpine since it opened. we have always had wonderfulfoodand great service. the main events are their meat and prawns. absolutely sensational. steaks are served with marrow bones - unctuous and moreish and adds so much to great cuts of steak. service is attentive and friendly. the ambience is simple and relaxed. this is quite honestly one of the best bistros for an easy dinner or for a celebration with a bigger group. always a winner.

love the marrow bone and steak combo and the gourmet sides just take it to another level. the main issue with this restaurant is the inconsistency especially when serving bigger groups. thefoodgets to you cold on occasion or undercooked/overcooked.

friday evening. 45 minutes to wait forfoodand then 2 eisbeins arrive over cooked and dry, which we could ignore and continue, but frozen solid on the inside. we both cut a piece of meat, put it in our mouth and ice crystals met our tongues. horrible horrible experience.

popped in for lunch earlier today and ordered a chicken and mushroom pasta as my weekly treat! i must say i'm actually disgusted at the standard that i received,  my pasta was porridge, the cream sauce;watery, boiled chicken thats flavourless, no mushrooms. 

an overall terrible experience. how can a place charge people so much in return for absolute rubbish? a instant pack of dennys pasta sauce from pick n pay has more flavour than what i paid premium prices for. i will not be returning. save your self from below sub standardfoodand take your hunger somewhere else.

popped in for a last minute dinner out and we were very pleasantly surprised at the superbfoodwe received at extremely reasonable prices. the service was right up there too. looking forward to returning to try more of the menu items as they cater for a variety of tastes.

we went without a booking for a quick evening out; warm inviting atmosphere. service was fine;foodwas great! will definitely be going again...

we had a pleasant evening here. we hadn't booked and the place was packed but they managed to find a spot outside. thefoodwas good and the service friendly. i'd definitely recommend a visit if you haven't discovered this local been yet.

service good here andfoodok. not too wowed by the lamb shank - gravy a bit bisto'ish. my wife steak was yummy as was the pizza. a little loud in the restaurant with all the windows and doors closed for the weather. try on a sunday afternoon for lunch maybe?

alpine has a greatfoodselection. pastas pizzas burgers and steaks. i tried out the steak this time and i was more than happy with it. you have a choice of 2 sides! i like that option. some feta fries and some blue cheese broccoli. alpine used to do this lamb gnocchi which i loved. why take it off the menu? bring it back! keep it up alpine. the service was great as well. very impressed overall.

can't believe i've taken so long to visit this gem, right on my doorstep. service was excellent, staff attentive andfoodwas brilliant - both top class and value-for-money. bravo!

absolutely love this hidden gem! originally a great deli/butchery they expanded and opened a little attached restaurant that you know will always have fresh meat. so going in expectations are high and for me they meet and surpass the expectations. 

the service is always good and thefoodis fantastic. the fillet with bone marrow is simply mouth watering, the calzone is a one-of-a-kind, flavour filled, stuffed to the brim, bundle of absolute joy. on my last visit the lamb was cooked to perfection, it could have done with a little less sauce but overall very good. all of their sides are super tasty and their wine selection is to die for (i think one of the owners must be wine collector).

the outside deck seating under the trees is perfect for the summer and the atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. its is a good place for a quite dinner with a few friends/family or your so. this is definitely my go-to for a great piece of meat done to perfection - a fillet done past medium-rare should be a considered a crime ;)
