Review Old Austria Restaurant - Port Elizabeth

What an amazing fine dining experience! The ambience is very special with a live pianist, beautiful chandeliers and antiques. The food was mouth-watering. The starters were amazing, and my steak (blu on a cold plate) was absolutely perfect. A hard feat to achieve!!! The prices are well worth the quality of the food and the steak was the best I have had in a very long time. We had loadshedding but the kitchen still made a plan to get the chips done. As an example when I was in Cape Town during loadshedding I was told that I would have to have mash, so five out of five for amazing service. The owner is also very hands on and added a personal touch by remembering my name under the reservation I made. This is a very special place and I will definitely be back!

Google led us to this Gem. Food was amazing, music lovely, invoking nostalgia and the perfect inspiration. Well done. Will definitely be back

The best creme brulee I've ever tasted. German pot roast with rosti is great! Sets the standard for service for any other restaurant! Love it every time I visit! Highly recommend Old Austria to all!

Absolutely wonderful place! Lovely soothing atmosphere with fantastic service!! Highly recommend. Scrumptious food with beautiful background music!!

Definitely one of the best dining experiences I have had in SA!!! Classy ambience, personalized service and excellent food! Rupert and his staff went out of their way to customize the dishes to our taste and preference......which is not easily available for vegetarians here!! Would love to come back :) Thanks folks!

Semi-formal yet upscale restaurant. Live piano music combines with minimalist furniture and decor to create an elegant ambiance. Knowledgeable waiters, wide selection of food. My 200g fillet was matured, tender and beautifully presented with squash, fries and stir fried vegetables. Comparable with the best in the world

We had a really wonderful experience and meal and it was enhanced by Rupert,the owner, who treated us exceptionally well on our anniversary. This wonderful restaurant is an old favourite of ours and Rupert and staff have managed to improve it and refine the dining experience,even though we thought that not possible.Give this lovely restaurant a try,you will be pleasantly surprised. They will definitely see us again.

Amazing food and absolute service satisfaction that you seldom experience in a restaurant. 100% recommended.

Always a friendly reception. Wonderful dining and atmosphere, consistently good. Thank you for a wonderful evening to celebrate my Birthday.

Absolutely lovely place. Friendly staff. Food was amazing. Homely atmosphere

All round good experience. A very interactive and attentive owner really goes out of his way to make it the outing even more special. The live music was an added plus. Kudos Mr Borman.

Excellent blue cheese parcel starter! Went wonderfully well with out wine. The wine was very well priced and the signature dishes unique in flavor. Both delicious because we wanted more! The Belgian Chocolate dessert was beautifully presented and delicious. An excellent experience all round with lovely friendly service.

Incredible service from Rupert and Jason who made my Father-in-Laws birthday so very special. They even ordered the flowers for us. Friendly and super efficient. Great wine list. Beautiful building , gorgeous floors and decor. Thank you !!!!

The food was delicious and the service was very professional.

A great fine dining culinary experience. If you're looking for the most succulent, falls off the bone lamb shank, airily & cracking top Crème Brûlée, I would recommend this beautiful restaurant. The staff is extremely friendly, with the owner being ever delightful. It is nothing like no other in Gqeberha. You'll also enjoy the hint's of Austrian and Germany influence.

Wow!!! I have never been disappointed by this Restaurant. Had the most amazing Sole fish today with my daughter Janell. The atmosphere is amazing. The waiters sooo professional and the owners is just stunning people. Please People, support this Gem of Port Elizabeth, you will NOT regret it. X

We had a great evening celebrating my parents 60th wedding anniversary. Food and service excellent.

What an experience!! First time dining guest, and I was blown away with the friendly staff, amazing live piano music and absolutely phenomenal food!! When I booked, I asked for there to be a vegetarian option, and they went far and beyond by making an incredible Butternut Risotto, which isn't on menu as yet!! Would highly recommend to anyone!!
