Review John Dory's Cradlestone - Muldersdrift

Very tasty food and excellent bar one chocolate milkshakes. A special thank you to Kimberly who gave excellent service and made the best milkshake I tasted in a while.

Vinny our waiter was very good and helpful and prompt. The food was delicious, we ordered prawn and sushi. Definitely would want to come back.

Thank you for ensuring we have a great dinner with family and friends. The food was great, but our waitress was even better. We'll be back to see Hlogii and her friendly smile and excellent service soon.

Mayibangwe was our waitress. She was polite and easy going. She checked up on us and when we needed her service! I definitely recommend requesting her as your waitress as you won't regret it!

For no particular reason, I have not been to a John Dory's for years. I tried this branch at Cradlestone , I was blown away. I ordered a takeaway Hake and chips, while waiting I was given a complimentary cold drink, and had a pleasant chat with the gent who took my order at the door. The food was amazing, the bater on the fish was crisp and not oily, and the fish was fresh and soft. The chips crispy and fluffy on the inside .... Thank you Ladies and Gents ... really great !!!!

In honour of my dad, who would have turned 70 today we went to John Dorys. Our waiter Eugene was polite, respectful and informative. 10/10 The food is done freshly and takes a while but everything was done exactly as requested so another 10/10. Sushi was fresh and beautifully balanced and tasty. My mom had Hake and chips and had a side request which was done without any complaints or problems. Staff is friendly and helpful. Definitely a return spot and future visits.

Wow amazing food. First time I get to a restaurant and the picture in the menu is not even close to to food you receive. It was allot better served than the picture on the menu. Thank you for the great experience

Went out for a family celebration we didn’t have the best of experiences but even with that there were still great points to highlight the young man who was attending to our table Tshepo hopefully a lot of care and guidance will be awarded to this chap as he has so much potential he was very empathetic and truly tried his best.. Rudi( Senior Management )also needs a mention for the care he showed in responding to my frustrations with the team all in all great restaurant and deserves a try…

Good evening we real had a nice time at John Dorys cradles tone, amazing food everything up to standard. The manager Lungelo was great he made sure we leave your bussness happy, we will be back at your branch, waiter Thandeka was also great Thankd

We want to thank Mayibongwe for your excellent service and welcoming smile and personality. We really enjoyed our evening with you. The service experienced today was much better than the Westgate John Dory's restaurant. You will definitely see us again! Very happy customers.

Wanted sushi and decided on John Dorys. Our waiter/supervisor Lungelo was superb. So attentive on the ball and friendly. Great upselling. I come from the industry so I do appreciate the service immensely. Have to go far these days for good service. Ten out of ten on all aspects guys.Yum Yum Yum!

The service was absolutely lovely, never had a problem with our waitress kim. The food was absolutely devine, especially the tar tar sauce. The place is fit for families, and they have a small playground for children. They have a sushi bar. I would definitely recommend this place ,if ones in the mood for of seafood delight.

It was great visiting John Dory again. The food service and food was of great and standards and really friendly staff.

It was a incredible and very enjoyable evening. The food was terrific and the atmosphere was great. Our waiter Brian was very kind and fast with our orders. Brian had a smile from that we walked in and out and was very friendly. Would highly recommend this place for a perfect date night.

Samu was super friendly, fast & helpful. The fish was delicious, the prawns ok, mussels & calamari 10/10. We enjoyed our meal thoroughly.

we had a lovely afternoon food was great n service was top notch Tsepo made us feel at home...he was so friendly

Very good service from Kimberly Rainbow warrior platter was a bit smaller then the deep fried bowl. Ahould make them the same size and more value for money. Other then that all good

To the Owner and management On my return with friends to give them the same great experience, it didn't go so well, staff was friendly and service good, We were a table of 8 people this time, restaurant not busy at the time. The food was colder and not warm enough, hence my fish was soggy and oily, the actual problem was with the prawns, they were pass tiny and definitely not what I had here before or at Cresta, the manager said this was standard, I don't believe this and would recommend you look into this. The Manager did make up with 1 milkshake. Unfortunately I am dropping 1 star, but still the meals and service was good, will see you soon. Below is our first experience- Complaints are quick, Compliments are not always given, I had the privilege to to visit Cradlestone John Dorys with my family this week and Cresta earlier in the week too with mates, two places both with great service. I only have good feedback for this franchise seafood restaurant, they have definitely stepped up since my last visit, you are now my favorite seafood restaurant!!! We stepped in and was made welcome by all the friendly staff, the restaurant was clean and neat with all covid protocols in place. The food was well prepared and we all enjoyed our meals. Thank you for the good time, food and reasonable prices, your competitors will need to catch up. Lastly to the waitor Justice, you stepped up and gave good service, beyond what is expected, thank you!!!

I am sorry to say but the food last night was dismal. The ribs are boiled and then a basting sauce added on top not even grilled properly. The prawns are cheap Argentina pink prawns of poor quality the menu should state baby sole as my fish was smaller than a piece of rib. The rice was a soggy mess. The only nice thing of the meal was the chips. And the child minder meant to watch the kids was just imat the front door having a fat chat to staff. Then while my kids are playing staff go into play area with food that they just leave there. Sorry but I don't need my kid eating your staff food. Was a horrible experience and I definitely won't be back. For 750 it was a shocking meal and pathetic experience. The manager had to tell me we have rule regarding our child minders. What is a child minder someone who watches your child. If I'm not mistaken. Go learn from papachinos and spur. Pathetic.

Lovely food. Two managers came around to check if everything was ok. When my son's food took a bit long they brought him a small plate of chips as a "starter ". This was without us even mentioning anything or complaining. I am so happy to see that they are also not using any plastuc straws. Will definitely go back.

Very friendly staff. The manager comes around often to check on all the tables. The food is high quality and the sushi is amazing. There are many families here with small children who play at the play den but it has a nice vibe for young and old.

The only good thing was our waiter. He was efficient, friendly and engaging. I had the king prawns, but there was nothing king about it. Not the size or the taste. Most disappointing.<br/>

Decided to to try this restaurant. What a disappointment, wanted King Prawns which was out off stock. Was offered JD prawns instead small prawns covers with some prawn sauce which made this meal tasteless and non appetizing.<br/>Had grilled calamari for starter but also done in same sauce as what was poured over the prawns.<br/><br/>

Been meaning to give this franchise a try for a while and finally got the chance to.<br/><br/>Nice cool and calming deco with a great view at the one we went to. Had the view of the sushi station.<br/><br/>The drink menu is what you would expect for a franchise and one that caters for kids as well. <br/><br/>The menu has range to cater for most tastes out there but of course speciality is the sea food. Had the sole double and it was prepared well and the safe sides (veggies). The calamari was great I wouldn't mind returning for it.<br/><br/>The service was the best on the day with our super attentive waiter which was greatly appreciated. A few hiccups here and there but that can be overlooked overall.<br/><br/>I would return.

John Dorys has always been particularly popular for their fish. Their seafood is also good and this family restaurant has been around for a good while. Ordered their stuffed Calamari and absolutely loved it. Big smiles! :)

We had the 2 for 1 fish and chips special last night. Had the grilled option and must say it wasn't as tasty as I thought it would be. Value for money as you are getting 2 for the price of one. Service average.
