we were in the area and i saw this restaurant on zomato and thought why not? the menu is quite old school and also interesting, have not seen quite a few dishes like that on any menu in jhb. our waitress was odd, when ordered in afrikaans she didn’t make out half of the dishes and when we switched to english the same thing? she was clearly afrikaans herself, perhaps she did not know the menu. we had starters and mains and we were there more or less and hour and 45 minutes. so it is definitely not a quick bite to eat place. we sat in the non smoking area which was empty so we did not get the ‘full vibe’ of the restaurant as such. the décor is very dark and typical pub like décor. i cant say if it is a clean place or not as there was not very much lightning as the rugby was about to start and the big screen was on. we had the snails, which were overcooked. i had the crumbed pork chop which would have been a lot better if they seasoned it before hand. the mash and spinach were good. my husband had the chilly steak and boy did his mouth burn, he liked it. they can work a bit on the gravy that comes with the pap, it has very little flavour. we did not stay for deserts as we were tired after almost 2 hours wait. i think i will be back again as all and all the experience was okay, but this will have to be a day where we have a good few hours to kill and take some friends along. not quite sure how they have a rating of 4 as to me that means top notch.
