Review The Godfather Restaurant - Olifantsfontein

Had a great evening here in a great setting. The staff was well presented and knew the menu and specials well. Service was prompt on time and always friendly. Enjoyed the food. Portions are generous and prices are reasonable. My ribeye in the bone was perfectly medium and the hotplate kept it warm all the time. The Sunday desert was AMAZING and delicious. Thanks to all involved for a wonderful experience all round.

First dined her 25 years ago when it was a third of the Size and the only one. Whenever we visit SA we always take time to visit and are never disappointed. The food is always great be it the prawns or the steaks. Can't recommend highly enough. If you are in the area definitely worth a visit

We thoroughly enjoyed the outing. We've been to this specific Crawdaddy's before, and on both occasions we were satisfied. We had mushrooms for starters, very tasty and a proper portion. My wife had the chicken snitzel special with a baked potato, and I had the 500g rump. I asked for it to be medium and although it was a bit more to the well done side, it still had a pink line in the middle and it wasn't dry. I like salty food, so I had to add salt in both sides, but over-all there is nothing to complain about the food. My first beer wasn't very cold though and the glass were room temperature that together with the warm weather did spoiled the beer. Although, our waitress was very friendly and helpful. She prepared a nice cold one for the second drink and also rinsed my glass under the draft water tap to cool it down. The menu are prised a bit higher than other restaurants, but you also get value for your money. In other words, the outing will be a bit more expensive, but you will definitely not feel cheated with the size of the portions served. We both enjoyed our food, and were fully replete.

Ribs were nice and tender almost falling off the bone though the meat was lacking in flavour. The chicken strips were nice and crispy and the prawns were fresh and firm. Finished off with the malva pudding which was amazing especially the home made custard. Good value for money considering the size of the portions.

Great experience. Super friendly staff. Very professional service

The food from this place was off the hook. We bought a seafood platter and didn’t want calamari so the chef made us more squid heads. Mussels were in an to die for garlic seafood sauce. Everything was so tasty. For a starter we bought wings with a feta based sauce those were the best wings I’ve ever eaten. Our waiter was super friendly also. I’ll definitely go back to this place. The menu prices are very reasonable for such tasty food.

This was one of the best places I have ever eaten. The service was impeccable and that really made the night for us. The food was also very good value for money.

Great food and excellent quality across a great variety of cuisine. Still a solid Pretoria favourite and with very good reason. Service also top class.

The location is convenient and the menu has a great variety of meals. The bone marrow burger was extremely tender and delicious. Cray fish was well made and the butter sauce was amazing. The tomahawk steak tasted superb. Fairly price and the service was amazing.

Awesome food and great service. I can really recommend the deconstructed T-bone!

Good food.. Pricey but won't regret it if you make the right choice

From start to finish the service was just amazing. Delicious food with a warm and cozy atmosphere.

Had a great time here menu has options for any occasions without been to much and the experience was really good.

We got there before they did the actual opening and they allowed us in. The service is good and the food outstanding and prices are very reasonable. Also they serve large portions. Loved it and worth returning.

Loved it here. The staff are so friendly. The food is of quality. I’ve never had such a delectable milkshake such as their Turkish Delight milkshake. They have daily specials. It is wheelchair accessible♿️

The food was great. I had 1kg of ribs which were excellent and very well portioned. Awesome atmosphere and vibe. The service was also excellent. I wish this level of service could be found elsewhere in South Africa.

Loved it! The proportions were bigger than I thought and the food was seasoned just right!, althought the lack of lighting made it hard to eat (it was 7pm ish) the candles and neon lights made it quite aesthetically pleasing and enjoyable

Excellent meal for the family. Good Saturday night bar vibe. Enjoyed our time here

Dit was baie teleurstellend. Betaal R180 vir 'n steak wat toegegooi is met Wimpy mostert. Goedkoop gebottelde geel mostert- op 'n fillet steak, geen chef wat sy sout werd is sal so iets opdis nie. Glad nie die hype die moeite werd nie.

Simply the best restaurant in my humble opinion - awesome food with great service and personal attention by the owners! Sad about the Centurion venue closing down, but all the best with the new premise - may the legacy continue!

What a brilliant cullinary treat this place was! Went there yesterday and have previusly always just passed and paid it no attention. Best decision for us to have our meal there last night and the exceptional service received from Reinhardt was just the cherry on the top! Definitely my new favourite place!

I enjoyed my food but found the portions huge . The waiter was very nice and helpful. However it is rather expensive as a Pensioner I could never afford to pay those prices. Luckily I was with a party so did not foot the bill. You would do well to drop your prices in the future

The best hosts ever! Such a homey feeling, with excellent food and drinks! Great service! Your best Spare-ribs you'll ever taste! Just an amazing restaurant

Going to Godfather Restaurant Centurion for nearly 10 years, said last nite to our waitress will greatly recommend anyone to visit, best food, hosting and most of all owner always attend to each table want to know if all is in order. Really love this place, you may keep rocking. Xxxx

For a place with such high prices (in the middle of centurion), I feel the food is extremely mediocre. Chicken schnitzel and mash for R115? With extremely over priced drinks - R65 for a carafe of Beyerskloof pinotage!? - you won't be seeing me any time soon again. And considering the mark up is so extremely high, you would think the chairs would be replaced or fixed? Pleather chairs that are peeling is extremely tacky. I had a lovely time here with my friends for a party, but possibly your waiters could also practice some taste in the comments they make towards patrons? The waiter for the evening addressed a friend as 'hey! lady who is drinking gin and tonic' at one stage!? I have worked at several higher end restaurants in SA and London and never once have I been to a place where my waitron talks to me like I'm his 'buddy'. Definitely won't be bringing my business back here.

What a special Mother's Day! Steve and Janet have been serving up excellence since 1991 and nothing has changed. From arriving, being served, dining and departing you can relax and enjoy. The Godfather has hassle-free parking, superb service and a legendary menu. Thanks again, we enjoyed it even more than 23 years ago.

Was so wonderful to have our wedding reception there. You guys went the extra mile to accommodate us. Planning before hand went off without a hitch, and you were so easy with everything. Excellent menu options that in the end delivered beautiful food delivered by a wonderful (exceptional) team headed by Janet. Thanks guys!

Simply the best! Fantastic. Hennie was an excellent waiter and served us well.

Absolutely fantastic food and amazing service. Will definitely recommend this restaurant

We have never been disappointed at The Godfather. Stunning, stunning food! The staff are all very professional. And for once you have sauce left over at the end of your steak!
