4 stars as there's always room for improvement. My mum and I went for the cheese wheel experience, and it was very different. We enjoyed it. The only advice I have is not to eat anything else as the pasta is extremely filling. Also, don't order any extras for the pasta unless you really want to. We had peppers, olives, and caramelized onions, and whilst it was amazing, it wasn't needed as the pasta had a rich cheese flavour and it comes with tomatoes and spring onion. Definitely try their Flatbreads and stay away from their mocktails 😅 not the best at all. Service wasn't the best , waitress was friendly but I think being in a busy environment perhaps needs more staff as it took a long time to get our waitresses attention and a couple times, things were forgotten or just incorrect but honestly, cannot fault her peoples skills. We did wait a while for our turn with the cheese wheel yet they advised us to come at 6pm. Ours happened just after 7pm, so perhaps a better booking structure so people who are there at certain times don't have to wait too long. Will definitely go back for another try🙂

Food portions were a tad small. Delicious food though and great drinks. We spent hours here having drinks and watching the people of Linden living their lives. Definitely a good and cozy spot worth visiting.

If you’re looking for something a little different then this spot is right up your alley. With a Tex-Mex and Asian inspired fusion dishes to choose from. The baked cheese dish with chorizo was incredible. Great burgers and ice cold beer on tap. Nice spot for a lovely meal or just a drink with friends. The staff were friendly and very efficient. Thanks! We will be calling soon.

Had a very nice experience at Choo Choo waiters service was on point. Food was delicious. Sunday has a 2 for one cocktail special. We had 8 cocktails total, two other different drinks 5 mains for under R1000.00. I call that a bargain of note. Thank you to the staff that made my wife's birthday feel special. Will try the chees wheel on a Wednesday sounds fantastic. Will visit again. Thanks again.

We had the cheese wheel pasta dish thing. Great to have the food being prepared in that manner, and the way chef explained the process, concept and history really rounded out the experience.

We had the wine pairing and food, last night and it was fantastic! The four courses served were delicious and the wines complemented each dish perfectly. The service and personal attention, even from getting out of the car in the pouring rain and being escorted into the restaurant under an umbrella to our fantastic waitress, greeting the chef and and personal congratulations from the owner, the evening was stunning. Thank you Choo Choo Junction.

Such a lovely restaurant, the lava cake is amazing, flatbread is delicious, cocktails are well combined. Our waiter, Godfrey was God sent. Amazing human. Loved the whole experience

It's a bar/resturant, but more of a restaurant than a bar. Good vibes, nice atmosphere. Parking is on the street, and there are car guards. Food is ok. Good place to meet up with a group of friends.
