The Shortmarket Club in Johannesburg was a delightful dining experience for the start of our SA trip! I’d recommend the Japanese pancakes, oysters, and prawn rolls from the starters —each dish bursting with fantastic flavors. But the star of the show was undeniably the the main course Herb Crusted B
We were fortunate to partake in a nice evening, where our choice of indulgence led us to the captivating world of cocktail tasting, paired seamlessly with a well curated tasting menu. As we embarked on this gastronomic adventure, we found the culinary offerings to be, regrettably, somewhat lackluste
The food was okay. Nothing I'd remember 4 months from now. The service was outstanding - really friendly wait-staff, really amazing front of house... all in all, it was a fun night out but not something I'd recommend to a true foodie
This was the best restaurant/food experience I have had in SA so far. Service, decoration and food was all amazing. My partner and I both had the 5-course tasting menu. Flavours connected so well together and the menu was very well balanced. Every course was delicious and eye catching. Will be back
This is the best restaurant I have ever been to in South Africa. We had the tasting meal and literally every single dish was a 10/10. The flavours came together so perfectly. As a pregnant woman they had vegetarian alternatives for some of the food I cannot eat. The vegetarian alternatives were so y
Celebrated Cape Town chef, Luke Dale Roberts, has finally opened a restaurant in Johannesburg. He is famous for the Test Kitchen and the Pot Luck Club. With a welcoming reception outside the restaurant, the enormous Red door conceals the the restaurant interior.
The staff was amazing. The service i
Unreal experience!!! Staff, food, pairing, atmosphere, EVERYTHING just awesome!!! They made a birthday so so special!!! Can't wait for our next visit!!!
It's difficult to chose between this and the Pot Luck Club in Cape Town. Both restaurants execute every single element of every single dish to absolute perfection. In my opinion they both share 1st position for best restaurant in the country. Flavour, balance and execution. At this level, the best v
Such a lovely fine dining experience. Food was exceptional. They even have a special vegetarian menu (and not just one or two dishes). Even the meat dishes that the rest of our group had was so flavorful. Service was also great!
Recommended wine pairing was 👌🏽👌🏽.
Highly recommend. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
What an amazing fine dine restaurant. The service from the waiters and the manager is top notch. The pina colada oysters 🤩, pepper crusted fillet out of this world (celeriac crisp ke di lays), the gnocchi was just OK, Thai style pork belly was amazing and the Line Fish was OK. There is an interestin
Shortmarket club
Couldn't resist the urge to do one last outing before 2023.
We had the 5 course tasting menu, there was good balance between red meat and sea food. Definitely worth a go for either a special occasion or just feed your curiosity.
The shout out course for me was the oysters, beef t
Extremely amazing experience. Went for a dinner date and really enjoyed the service. I must say, I've had quite a lot of dining experiences in johannesburg and I think so far, The Shortmarket Club had the best service. The environment was clean and elegant. Not too complicated aesthetically, just si
We went to the Shortmarket Club for my boyfriend's birthday dinner. The ambience and decor are great. This is a nice and intimate venue so I can see why booking is required. When booking I also had to pay a booking deposit but this was added back to the bill at the end.
The experience was amazing. T
Excellent service, good food and ambience. Went with a group of 10 pax
For starters I had the oysters A++ - the plating has drama and engages the senses
For mains I had the fish, it was good. Good sear on the skin and carefully prepared. I enjoyed the asparagus the most.
Dessert, I had the brownies
This is a true premium dining experience. I wouldn't call this haute cuisine, but it certainly is food made with great skill and talent.
I loved the quality of the wait staff, everyone was impeccably trained and attentive, a rare occurrence in today's dining landscape.
This place is hella expensiv
Shortmarket Club is one of the best restaurants we have ever been to. The food is absolutely fantastic. The terrine was the best we’ve ever had anywhere, and we get a fair few of them in Europe where we’re visiting from, so that’s saying something. For the mains we had the lamb and the springbok, bo
