Baby wanted a steak ..and when Baby wants a steak- Baby gets a steakš„©š¤£.
My love was craving a steak dinner- after a quick search it was decided that we would try the Butcher Shop & Grill.
We didn't have a reservation, so we were seated at the family style table, which was great because we met an awesome new friend.
The space is impeccable, every thing was so well crafted from the exquisite leather stools, to the leather apron which my husband loves. The lighting was perfect, made for a nice intimate setting to dine alone, with friends/family, or with a good book as one patron did- he was definitely a return guest.
The shop had carefully selected items and pairings for said items- love the oyster tank, it is such a cleaver idea.
My husband had the ribeye- medium rare with pepper sauce, and I had the grilled pork chops with pineapple and a sweet potato. It was man against steak and man won- he enjoyed every bite.
My pork chops were overcooked and dry, but still flavorful. I didn't try the potato as it was also overdone.
The critics: My meal was not great- pork has to be handled carefully or else you get sawdust. Our server accidentally poured water in my husband's whisky and charged for a replacement- we didn't catch it until days later and after we left Cape Town.
Overall we had an amazing experience and lovely service which made up for the shortcomings. We will absolutely return and I will try something else.
Overall a 5 star experience.
I thought they just do grill foods only. So when I went and I found out they had variety on the menu, I was pleasantly surprised. I had an oxtail, and it was really good. My partner had a steak, and he highly rated it - said best steak he ever had. I only had a glass of the house wine - chardonnay, but it was so good. Great on the palate. Service was great. Most importantly, it is kid friendly.
Ok, this place is in South Africa. The atmosphere is inviting, good vibes nice layout. Unique display items. The service as it should be was top notch. Now the steak was done to order the sides were on point. The bartender got down with the mojito. Very good šš¾
