alpine restaurant

greatsteakand bulgarian mixed grill. their burgers are quite nice as well. really nice for a sunday afternoon lunch. the service is not bad.

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

what i really like about alpine is they get the basics right! good food, great service 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 mysteakperfectly 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!

service good here and food ok. not too wowed by the lamb shank - gravy a bit bisto'ish. my wifesteakwas 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 great food selection. pastas pizzas burgers and steaks. i tried out thesteakthis 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.

took my boyfriend forsteakand ribs for his birthday at alpine, and it was the perfect birthday experience!

the staff were friendly with their wine suggestions, and the manager even came over to contribute. all of the steaks arrive with marrow bones, which is such a unique and creative touch! this is actually the reason why i picked alpine instead of a differentsteakhouse.

our meat was done wonderfully, and the service was sharp and friendly. our waiter, lesley, was just awesome. the fact that you can have any 2 sides with yoursteakis very generous and pleasing as well. my chips and cinnamon butternut were divine, and my sirloin was cooked to perfection.

my only complaint is that many of the imported wines advertised were not available. otherwise, i highly recommend alpine restaurant!

prepare to have the best service in jhb. seriously, eat outs top 10 jhb restaurants cannot compete with this service and believe me, i have very high expectations.

my husband picked this restaurant for us for an anniversary, because of its high zomato score. as we walked in and was shown to our table, we arrived to find a stunning bouquet of flowers and an ice cold bottle of mcc, already set up! the waiter, biggie, was just the most awesome guy. turns out he suggested to my husband that he buy the flowers and get the champagne cold, when my husband made the reservation over the phone. how nice?

we both ordered the aged rib eye with sides and the presentation was lovely. the bone marrow is out of this world, however, our only negative critique is that the quality of the meat was average. not bad, just not up to par with the high level of service. and this is such a pity, as they are connected to the butchery next door! we both had a very tough piece of meat and again, the service made up for that. the manager came around, explained and took it back to the kitchen and return with another piece ofsteakto make up for it.

we then had dessert and a shot of grappa on the house.

all in all a lovely experience. will definitely go back. want to try their breakfasts.

we went to alpine restaurant tonight for a date night. we got a table outside and the breeze under the tree was great in 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 thesteakside.

alpine restaurant is an intimate and cosy little spot that always delivers. thesteaktaretar starter is always a winner as the capers are crispy, salty and divine! the lamb burger andsteakare tied for mains as both are amazing!
if you're like me and enjoy sitting outside, there is a lovely outside seating area for those that prefer al fresco.

thesteakwas good cannot fault that, the lam chops however was not cooked as well it should have been. a very quiet atmosphere, and a bit dark.
but otherwise a good place to visit if yo uhavent been there before.
a good selection of wines and beer,

the food is generally good, a bit of hit and miss though. make sure to tell the service staff that you do not want the basting on yoursteak- or you will be presented with a spur version😳.

beststeakin town! the 300g fillet is my absolute favorite. friendly and helpful waiters. i take all my family and friends visiting for the first time there - they never disappoint!

i've never had bulgariansteakbefore and i must say i thoroughly enjoyed it. the main meals come in healthy (man-sized) portions all meats are well prepared and and come with demi-glacé and roasted bone marrow(not for those who suffer from high cholesterol) alpine also has a nice selection of wines to choose from. the restaurant itself is really relaxed and staff is friendly, although the food took a little long. all round i had a great experience.

when you've got a man with a beautifully thick bulgarian accent greeting you and making small talk about the world cup you have an inkling of the kind of evening you're in for!
alpine is a great little spot at the top of conrad drive in blairgowrie/randburg with a butchery attached to the restaurant.
the owner is an old friend of my dads (from the german shepard dog club?) and is actively involved in the day to day runnings of the restaurant.
they boast a well balanced menu and their claim to fame is their collection of 21-day matured cuts of meat (prepared in the butchery next door).
they boast an extensive selection of wines housed in a very fancy temperature controlled fridge/room which forms one of the restaurants walls, a very nice little feature - we indulged in a bottle of wine called "the churchyard".
i enjoyed a starter of prawns (at asteakrestaurant, go figure) - which was just absolutely phenomenal, with some delightful mayonnaise and sweet chilli sauce while my parents each enjoyed their own carpaccio, which was thinly sliced and look exceptionally appetising.
main meals were were healthy portions of beautifully prepared meat, between us we had, prime rib, pork chops and fillet - the cuts of meat were impeccable and their preparation was second to none!
a chocolate fondant and cappuccino to round off the evening never goes astray!

what i love about alpine though, apart from the amazing food, is the look and feel, it's a well lit cosy little restaurant and the staff are polite, well trained and all round nice guys whilst the owner (simeon) and his managers are authentic europeans with that warm homely "you must enjoy" attitude that adds to the experience.

i really would recommend this place for dinner and the butchery for your fresh cuts of meat!

great service ! amazing burger , just shy of the best you can get in jo'burg , the only problem i do have with alpine is that they lack atmosphere , and the proper dry agedsteakthe claim to serve is eluding them too .

just to update ... alpine scores quite high on the eggs benni scale , well poached eggs , good hollandaise! ( i would have liked it a bit more lemony , but otherwise it is rich and buttery like it is supposed to be ) and the coffee is not to shabby either.☺️
