transkaroo

great restaurant in groot brak right next to the train track where the original transkaroo train ran!
i had the most delicious chicken with basil pesto & creamy risotto with a side of soet patat and broccoli. a glass of delicious veltevreden vanilla chardie accompanied my main course. dessert was a decadent warm apple crumble and cream washed down with a delicious latte!
our waitrons were friendly and attentive!
thank you for our fantastic lunch!!! what a special place with a great wine selection

if you can visit one restaurant in your life on the sa garden route - this is it! stunning food, great wine and excellent service. a true gem.

cosy restaurant with nice view and great food, wine and service. well priced for what you get. would highly recommend it.

great food, good service , kind of a short menu for what i would have liked with the diet restrictions i have. check the menus if you like it then i totally recommend it to you :)

a gem ! food was excellent. roast pork belly with the best sweet potato. beef short rib wit teriyaki sauce also a winner. the ambiance of the restaurant is casual but still personal and special for a romantic dinner for two or a family birthday celebration. and the train that passes by occasionally make having dinner in old station building even more fun. choose your wine from their selection of delicious wines. i will return !

always a good experience but menu and pricing on this app is very outdated.
am on a diet and kitchen was very accommodating to provide for my dietry needs.

fantastic service, staff and ambience. great food. quality fine dining at an affordable price. slightly out the way but i came all the way from george and it was well worth it.

one of the best experiences to date when it come to fine dining.

thank you werner from the bottom of my heart for an unforgettable experience.

can highly recommend the pork belly and skaapstertjies.

great food, good view, needs to be open more often or at least earlier in the evening to enjoy pre dinner drinks or longer opening times on weekends

really homely food and a great selection of wine to choose from. the restaurant feels like the train station that it used to be - in a very good way. the service was the best i've ever experienced.

simple menu yet very sophisticated, for starters the thai fish cakes and blue cheese snails are delicious. mains the springbok shank served with apricot nut risotto is out of this world. lastly the creme brûlée was creamy with not a very thick caramelized glaze, the spun sugar was a nice touch.

chose transkaroo on a visit to george based on the zomato reviews and it did not disapoint. this is a beautiful spot with tons of character! our waitress was lovely and gave some great suggestions. the peri-peri prawns were amazing! portions are quite generous so good value as well. great food, great wine selection and great service! will deffinitely go back...

just wow! great food, great people, great wine...what more do you need? always try and call to book, loved every minute... will be back soon.

took a chance and arrived without a reservation... we were greeted by the friendliest staff and seated outside on the old platform. our waiter, john, was the epitome of friendliness and his menu knowledge was outstanding. we followed his recommendation and ordered the cream of mushroom soup and skaapstertjies for starters. one word....awesome...!! our main course arrived shortly after and we were blown away. camembert biltong and balsamic onion topped fillet grilled to perfection and slow roasted pork belly on mash with crackling - food fit for kings! as we aren't from the area, we regret not being able to visit regularly and - in hindsight - shouldn't have been surprised at all the local cars in the carpark when we arrived. well done to everyone at transkaroo - we will definitely be back!!!

fine dining in the heart of calmness.

we arrived a bit early to an empty restaurant, but 30 minutes later it was completely packed with families.
definitely a different kind of place. no menus whatsoever. everything they serve to you can be found written on the walls and something we really enjoyed is their unique wine list, or actually, their wine display.

the waiters are extremely friendly and help you with a big smile and never making you wait. giving you suggestions on what they think is the best for the evening, which really gives transkaroo that homey feel.

the food... oh so amazingly delicious and very unique to africa which is great for the tourists that make use of the garden route.

maybe a little pricey if you compare it to anything else in great brak, but this sure is a place to visit when in the area.

transkaroo gets two tasty tummies' stamp of approval.
