The ROCK has an awesome vibe, there are nice spacious tables for bigger groups (which is fantastic) the Staff are really friendly and helpful (Pretty was our waitress and she was fantastic). Good range of food options (we went for dinner) including pizza, pasta, sushi, seafood, meats and some light meals. Delicious prosecco is available on tap and they have a great gin selection (yay)! Desserts menu is fantastic - we had the sphere which was on point! Only thing that could possibly be added to the menu is perhaps a cheese plate or some form of bread platter to snack on while having drinks before dinner - but overall Well done! Will definitely be back!
Great food. Really great staff. It's nice to see a place getting it right. The margarita pizza is outstanding and authentic and the alioli pasta with penne (the ONLY pasta for a lunch meeting) is perfect. Great cappuccino too and super strong Americano.
If you're a healthy breakfast eater, you should try the muesli and yoghurt and fruit which comes in three big bowls and is unusual and delightful.
A great restaurant and the best reason in years to go to The Design Quarter
This place just has an amazing vibe about it. The food is scrumptious. Eugene was a great waitress; attentive, sharp & efficient. I was there my baby & the showed her so much affection (especially her Aunty V), making the place great for kids. I will definitely be going there again soon.
Eric (the Captain) was so friendly and attentive! We had great food and great service. 10/10 would recommend
Great location and setup for a relaxed lunch or dinner. Really good food and drinks selection. The bar, Carnelian is even better now that you can order food from the full Rock menu. But be warned - you must check your bill carefully before paying. Been there 5 times - and incorrect drinks were added to my bill each time.
Always have a great dining experience here. Whether it’s lunch or dinner. I like the place so much that I’ve hosted an event for 14 in the indoor garden room...lovely space! The service is always great and the food even better. The last time that I was there I did wish for more options on the Banting pastas.
Had lunch here and from the moment I arrived I was attended to. The manger picked a large round table considering it was jus for two I was happy I had space for my bag. It got too hot to I asked to move to the shade and he was very sweet and eager. After moving tables service slowed down. I ordered a passion fruit and lemonade and my friend ordered a virgin mojito. I then ordered 3 oysters as a starter that were large and delicious. I then had the 8 queen prawns with fries and my friend had the ribs and wings combo. The food arrived quite quick considering we waited a really long time for our order to be taken. The manager came to check up on us and I was pleased with that. The food was fresh and delicious. My friend ordered a chocolate fondant for dessert, tasted delicious so I ordered one too. We were there for a few hours and the bill proved it. Great restaurant though, like the vibe. It’s very chilled and relaxed. I would recommend this place.
Been to this establishment about 3 times now and had an enjoyable experience each time. The food is reasonably priced as well as the drinks. Being a vegetarian there were also sufficient options available to me and they were flavorful too! My most favorite are the pizzas, sushi (yup vegetarian options available too) and the Nachos. The only thing I could ask for an improvement on is the supposed "salsa" that comes with the nachos. Its basically chopped peppers, onions, tomatoes and cucumber.. not a salsa at all (pic attached). So if they could "salsa-fy" that.. the nachos would be perfect!
We have come to this restaurant twice, once with only my sister during its Sunday special and once with my family. Both times I was highly pleased with the quality of food as well as the amazing staff.
This restaurant is usually busy both outside and inside for great reason. It is because of their amazing food.
Truly enjoyed this place. I cannot wait to return. The vibe is so trendy but is also a space where families can enjoy themselves and be comfortable.
The location is beautiful and is not too busy. The service receives a 5/5, our waiter knew the menu and even recommended things on the menu.
Lovely experience at this restaurant! It is a very large restaurant with a lot of options to sit where you’d like. I loved the cocktails, I had a grapefruit daiquiri which was delicious, and the service is amazing . The creamy pesto pasta wasn’t very ‘creamy’ but otherwise delicious!
When with a girlfriend and it was great ..especially now that its Dezember the place givea you the vibe,makes you feel like you are not in Joburg.Will surelly go here again.
Nice time here, I love the presentation of my plate, seafood pastas, pizzas, amazing desserts. The outside seating area has a state-of-the-art retractable awning structure which is perfect. Thanks
The place is lovely. The service was good. I had the seafood pasta with white sauce which was delicious and filling.
A nice restaurant to have quality time with great music. You can dine and converse in peace, the volume of the music makes that very easy as it doesn't overpower you.
The food is of good quality and the service is outstanding. Highly recommended for a romantic seating or business meeting.
Had a birthday celebration and lunch at The Rock. Great service
We booked for 14 and they still accommodated 18. With ease and no fuss.
The staff and manager specialize in customer focus and attention. They give 100% attention and focus to each table. It is as if you are the only one serviced.
The food is diverse enough and for all ages. We had teenagers to seniors in our table and everyone was satisfied,
Two people in our table were unhappy with their orders and the restaurant gladly changed it and made sure they delivered as per what the customer needs.
Great atmosphere
Great food and good value for money. Service was good and management very visible. Bit noisy but nice atmosphere overall.
Tried out this interesting restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday on a Wednesday evening. All our meals were delicious and cooked to perfection. The prices were average and portions well sized. Service was good and ambience was perfect. A great date night restaurant.
The entire experience was such a vibe... Food was really great. Each dish we ordered was perfectly presented and the taste was immaculate. It was just a bit cold outside... Would prefer more heaters...they automatically add in the gratuity ..so be mindful of that if your budget is a bit tight
Nestled within the vibrant hub of Design Quarter in Fourways, The Rock Restaurant beckons diners with promises of culinary enchantment.
The menu is a labyrinth of culinary surprises. Each dish is a carefully orchestrated performance of flavours. The mains continue the culinary rollercoaster, with each dish surpassing expectations.
As for the service, it mirrors the restaurant's enigmatic charm. The staff, attentive yet not intrusive, the servers add to the overall mystique of The Rock experience.
However, like any eatery, the delicate balance between eccentricity and approachability is a tightrope that The Rock bravely walks, and not everyone may find their equilibrium.
The Rock Restaurant is a dining experience that transcends the ordinary. It's a celebration of culinary artistry. For those who relish pleasure in every bite, The Rock is a destination worth exploring
Delicious food...we had grilled chicken and roast veg, steaks and chips and ribs. Liked the round wooden table we sat at. Icecream gelateria inside. Dessert chocolate sphere had hot melted choc poured over creating melting theatre and tasted great for dark choc fans. Photos on the staircase was an added treat.
