alpine restaurant

fresh meat,greatprawns and a marrow bone with every main meat meal. what more could a girl ask for? the staff is friendly, the vibe is low key but pleasant, and the wine list is extensive. their side dish of brocoli au gratin in a blue cheese sauce is good enough to eat on it's own, and it's also the restaurant i had too much champagne with my friends and we spontaneously booked a trip to india, so it will always hold fond memories for me. it's very conveniently located too. they could do a bit more with the decor, like some fairy lights around the lone tree, and the ablution facilities is pretty much a porter loo, but i've always been a sucker for a good fairy light and a smooth glass of red.

all the reviews on zomato are spot on with this place! i had the lamb shank and it was on of the best i have had in jhb, and cheap compared to other places. my partner had initially ordered the sirloin however it was not matured properly and was not agreatpiece of meat, the manager was exceptional in apologizing and replaced it with a perfectly done fillet.the excellent service from the manager overshadowed the waiter. will be going back very soon!

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 reallygreatand 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 my food ,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 agreatand affordable spot. would definitely recommend it .

we went to alpine for their kleftico sunday. what an exquisite selection on their buffet. the lamb was incredibly tender and juicy. the pork belly was divine.
amongst othergreatdishes, i was particularly intrigued with the pumpkin salad and it definitely did not disappoint.
i enjoyed the little dessert options, which made you feel like you were indulging without all the calories.
most definitely agreatstop to eat - away from a bustling crowded mall.
i highly recommend you try this place. we will most definitely be back and are keen to try their pizza/pasta or meat platter nights next.

we've been going to alpine since it opened. we have always had wonderful food andgreatservice. the main events are their meat and prawns. absolutely sensational. steaks are served with marrow bones - unctuous and moreish and adds so much togreatcuts 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.

what i really like about alpine is they get the basics right! good food,greatservice and value for money.
staff were all very attentive and you always got the feeling that everyone cared. i had the surf and turf with my steak perfectly cooked while the prawns were juicy and appetizing. my wife had the pork belly which was also cooked perfectly and the generous helping resulted in her having to get a take away for the remainder. try the chips with feta grated over them-such a simple concept but so delicious. the restaurant also has a selection of craft tap beers which is also an added benefit. overall my first dining experience at alphine left me feeling like i need to go back to try the other dishes. keep up the good work alphine, you will definitely be seeing me again!

based on zomato ratings, we decided to give alpine a try. what a good decision! first, the restaurant is light and airy (we didn't sit outside, but it looked welcoming, too). the wine list is extensive, and the waiters knowledgeable about the choices. 
hubby was planning on a steak, but chose the pork schnitzel instead, as it's one of his favourite dishes. i went straight for the pork belly - divine, perfectly cooked, and the option of having two sides just made it better. the caramelised beetroot was delicious and as for the gorgonzola broccoli - yum! our waiter was also very patient at going to find out whether anything contained wheat, and i'm happy to report that their sauces are thickened with maizena, not cake flour. 
good thing i didn't order the bulgarian tripe soup as a starter (thanks to our waiter's warning that it was *not* starter-sized) - i would never have been able to have both that and the pork! the portions are far too generous for that to be possible. 
all in all, agreatnew discovery for weekend lunches - in fact, i have already invited friends for lunch, based on today's experience.

alpine has agreatfood selection. 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 wasgreatas well. very impressed overall.

absolutely love this hidden gem! originally agreatdeli/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 the food is 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 agreatpiece of meat done to perfection - a fillet done past medium-rare should be a considered a crime ;)

we went to alpine restaurant tonight for a date night. we got a table outside and the breeze under the tree wasgreatin this heat.

we couldn't decide what we wanted from the diverse menu. everything looked interesting and worth a try. we ended up choosing the steaks with marrow bone and two sides. my husband loved his t bone, my rump was unfortunately over done and not that great.

the sides were amazing. the gorgonzola broccoli was completely moreish.

lovely evening although a little disappointing on the steak side.

so i trusted the zomato reviews and took my wife to dinner at the alpine restaurant. the service was ok and that was the highlight of the evening, but the food was disappointing from the starters to the main course. also the fact that the restaurant only had one toilet outside of the restaurant and cleanliness at the toilet was notgreatdoesn't make itgreatspot for a couples evening. it is an ok restaurant for a quick meal and maybe to watch a game, but not a fantastic restaurant worth a 4 or above rating.

absolutely delicious food. i had prawns which were fresh and cooked perfectly! the high light however was the dessert. the chocolate fondant that was freshly prepared was more than what i could ask for.
it's a small restaurant but so the atmosphere was relaxed and cosy.
thanks alpine for agreateat out.

amazing food every time we go there. we have tried just about everything on the menu and i love all the food.greatservice and lots of smiles always. highly suggest the pork belly and carbonara pasta dishes. good wine selections.

i've been here many times and always love coming here. the aesthetic is clean and simple but the food is rich and well prepared. the restaurant isgreatfor all occasions with a broad but not overwhelmed menu and solid wine list.

my first experience at alpine restaurant was a special one. while the atmosphere may lack a bit, the service wasgreatand the food exceptional. i had the fillet which was one of the best cuts of meat i've ever had and my dining partner had the pork ribs, which were equally high quality, probably attributable to the fact that alpine is also a butchery that runs in the day. i knew i was in for a treat (i was craving a good steak). one of my favorite aspects of the meal was the option to choose 2 side dishes from their excellent selection (the gorgonzola broccoli gratin, trust me). while the menu was not cheap, you get what you pay for. an overall lovely first time, i will definitely be returning 👍🏻.
