Review The Butcher Restaurant - Camps Bay

......…..This is our first time that we visit here! And it was very easy and hassle free to make the reservation! We came to redeem our Combo-meal for two Hyperli Voucher which was a total surprise for us as it didn’t say what we are going to get! First-lii the restaurant is Superb-lii located on Victoria Road, Camps Bay in other words it’s on the Golden mile on the ground-floor with a terrace right on the street from where you are able to sea-gaze and listen to the waves breaking across the road, so awesome! The terrace is smallish and only has a few tables but they have a love-lii biggish inside seating, at the entrance there is place for about five tables which can seat 2, 4 and 6 patrons then you have the next section which has about 21 tables also seating 2 and 4 patrons. Against the back wall there is a love-lii bright-lii lit bar, one big TV screen! The restaurant is clean and very neat! The staff are friend-lii and pleasant! The manager takes the time to make around at your table just to small-talk and making sure that you are happy and comfortable! The Combo-meals on offer we discovered were: - 1. Ribs & calamari 2. Fried-fish & calamari 3. Prawns & calamari served with either Rice, Chips or a Salad! We were real-lii looking forward to some juicii steaks but had to settle for the fish, prawns & calamari dishes! Kinda "Weird" having sea-food at a "Steak-House/The Butcher!!! Our opinions are “seen that they are called The Butcher” their Combo-meals should be more on Meat-Combos then Sea-food! Never-the-less the meals were insidious-lii delicious and we real-lii enjoyed our mysterii dinner! They serve the best home-made bread which they serve with olive-oil and balsamic vinegar insidious-lii delicious! They also offer the normal steaks which is their specialty! We will have to come around again to try their steaks next time. They have a good selection of wines and various cock-tails also on offer! The place is well decorated with sepia photos of various places in and around Cape Town with one wall nice-lii decorated with cut-off barrels! The prices seems to be in the normal bracket of other restaurant offering the same kind of foods! We will definite-lii come back here in the future although parking can be a bit of a problem!.....

Located on the beachfront of Camps Bay, a beautiful view of the ocean. Best to enjoy a dinner as you watch sunset or sundowners. The relaxing background music allows for conversations. The tables are a bit small, but you can request for tables to be placed together. Very helpful staff. Quality dishes perpared. The menu offers unique dishes and beloved usuals. I ordered the springbok starters and a fillet for the mains. Prepared to perfection with great presentation! Picture below was taken from upstairs, window seat at 20h40 on a Summers night.

Good food. Big portions. Kind staff. Sunset view.

Great service and food!! Just not giving 5 stars because I had better fillet in other restaurants and the cook sent me a blue rare steak while I asked for a medium well.

Excellent food, great service and a lovely view (across the road)

The best steak ever, delicious food and nice atmosphere, six star

The food was amazing, the waiters were on point and ready to assist. The manager also checked up on us!

Amazing staff and service some of the best people I encountered in Capetown. The food was also amazing.

Great food, great service, great view

My wife and I had a great dinner with excellent service. They have a large wine selection as well as some well priced chalk board deals.

Every order was absolutely delicious.

The service and the food was lovely enjoyed the experience 👌👌

Great when you love good meat. Nice selection of Game.

We went to The Butcher for dinner and returned for breakfast after the great service we had the night before. The fish I ordered was fresh and a treat. The ribs my husband ordered were done very well! We were both very pleased with our meals! The menu is reasonably priced considering the location. The waiters were friendly and we enjoyed both our meals here. The atmosphere was relaxed and the pleasant music enhanced the atmosphere!

Booked here as we couldn't get a table for eight at our preferred restaurant. The waitress was attentive and the food was generally good. Two of our party ordered the prime rib steak which unfortunately was tough. The Manager dealt with the complaint exceptionally well.

Dinner for 3 of us. Beef Steak filet was tender but it was brushed by a sweet sauce like a barbecue sauce which destroyed the actual real taste of the meat. The manager tried to put it back on the grill for a few minutes but unfortunately it didn’t work. <br/>So, my advice is to make sure to order the steak without the “barbecue sauce “. The overall experience was average although the waiters and the waitress did their best to please us. <br/>A.A

Firstly I wanna say I loved the interior, 10 points for that. The place was quite empty when we went, but the service was average. What a disappointment. Coming to the food, I had the hake and calamari and it was okay. Nothing out of the ordinary. My cousin had the ribs and shares the same sentiments. The food could have been better, but I'd actually recommend this place.

Very bad service. Staff aren't attentive and are very rude. Won't recommend this place to anyone. The waiter messed up the order several times.

Had a cheese and tomato sandwich and chips. It was a simple easy to get right meal. The chips had an awful flavor (old oil) and the sandwich was just okay. Would not go back.

The service was really great and our waitress was super helpful and attentive. I really enjoyed the food and the restaurant was very cozy. A great place to go for a quality steak.

Not good. The cook "chefe" after my request of a caeser salad with out anchovies told me that a salad like that always have them... trying to create conversation after my simple complain about the dressing that had a strong flavour of what?! Anchovies! I even did a scene but his ego did. About the rest well the pasta was over cook, everything seemed heated in the microwaves...

Really great, ambient atmosphere. Friendly and attentive service. The burger I had was incredibly tasty except the patty which I ordered medium rare was incredibly rare and not to my taste so I had to ask them to cool it a bit longer. But despite that an overall pleasant experience

Nothing really amazing about this restaurant apart from the fact that there's a lot to choose from on the menu. Other than that, the ribs were dry, lacked that juiciness to them..the steaks were done perfectly but the the sauces weren't that amazing. All in all, it was an average experience, wouldn't go back again though.

The rating on Zamato is totally misleading.<br/>I accidently bumped into this place as I was looking for some sushi. They had a fantastic rib special and since am a sucker for ribs I went straight in. <br/>The taste was heavenly. I will definitely go back when am in camps bay again. <br/>The waiters are fantastic and their cocktails are decent.

Read the reviews and saw a 3.1 average.... This couldn't be more misleading ... Despite an early hiccup with a Luke warm snail starter (which was still delicious) everything else was top quality ... Vibe, main and service. Definitely a winner and the blue cheese and bacon fillet was the business!

Friendly & efficient service, but the food is nothing to write home about. The dishes we ordered were bland and had no culinary balance. <br/><br/>Wine is seriously overpriced by the bottle, and true to Camps Bay, it had a bit stuck up vibe.

Had a very nice meal here. Doesn't get as busy as some of the more established restaurants on the promenade- but I feel it has all the offerings to put up a good fight for your belly.<br/><br/>Great service, good food and very cool vibe.

Had a very demeaning experience. My friend and I were completely ignored, had to get up and take our own menus because nobody would acknowledge or serve us, waiters and waitresses made split second brief eye contact but continued to ignore and pretend not to see us, and then serve all the tables surrounding our table who arrived after. The rudeness and level of ignoring felt surreal. When I left and told two waitresses why, they stood there and said nothing, neither did anybody else. We didn't even get to the point of ordering anything. I felt disrespected as a customer. <br/>

Service was slow, Oysters were off, Burger was dull, chips were stale.<br/><br/>Worst of all when sending 1 Oyster back (1 off oyster had already been eaten by my friend) and making the waitress smell it to show to the chef, all 6 were still on the bill. The neighbouring table had 1 stinking oyster out of 3. <br/><br/>Before the bill came I still made a remark to the manager that some oysters were off and that I'd like to order a shot of brandy to prevent worse (this will of course not work against strong bacteria). All he could say is that he'll send the waiter. After the bill came, which after querying it was rectified by the waiter (paid for 4 iso 6) the manager came around asking whether we enjoyed our evening, still not making mention of any oyster. It was at that stage that I lost my cool and asked him if they are trying to hurt people at "the Butcher". Three people, including the manager had been made aware that they were serving off oysters and they still have not bothered to even question anything in the kitchen at that stage. In my view that is unprofessional at best and deadly at worst. All we got was the speel of spawning oysters and that they create a milky substance. That said; I have been eating oysters all my life (normal and spawning) and I can differentiate a fresh one from a stinking one. Good news is that my mate did not end up with food poisoning.<br/><br/>I do apologise to the manager though who I at that stage told to F-off and get out of my sight!

Great service! Relaxed and warm atmosphere. Excellent food and amazing wine selection! Absolute worth for money! If you're a steak lover, it is an definite must try!

I had breakfast I enjoyed their bread and chicken levers with perfectly cooked egg I was expecting something small but it was really filling, staff was welcoming

Best steak and seafood by far....my favourite is the calamari...absolutely delicious...@<br/>Oh..and the service was terrific...<br/>Always a great experience.

excellent ,great foog, great owners.........there is no reason not to be visit.......only the best impressions <br/>

Jovial welcome by the manager and staff, excellent service and a warm atmosphere, complimented by smooth relaxing tunes in the background. We had grilled camembert and snails for starters, followed by the avo & biltong fillet and lamb shank both with fluffy mash on the side. Great place overall.
