I started with quite a crappy day THEN I came to Culture Club - the place that my daughter has been raving about. Thank you for good service, great food, interesting decor and an atmosphere that kills doom and gloom. Thank you for the smiles on every hostesses face, thank you to the kitchen for amazing food and picture perfect presentation.

Cherish all your staff and your winning concept ... highly recommend !! Once again, thank you ! Only blessing

My first visit to this little gem in the east of Pretoria. From the first moment we got there to the last crum of churros - what an amazing little place. Well priced and really the best tapas in town.

This has to be one of my favorite restaurants! The food is absolutely delicious, I recommend the chicken strips, ribs and the Portuguese chicken skewer. The service is consistently efficient and the setting is so beautiful, especially at night. Definitely give culture club a try!

Wonderful setting. Food is amazing. Our waitress Nicola was so gracious and provided wonderful service. There was unfortunately two encounters with another waiter who literally threw our food onto the table and a not so pleasant female manager who didnt seem like she appreciated us spending our own money at this establishment. Apart from that its a good place for a saturday lunch.

Highly recommend. Have been here twice. Excellent service. Fast turnaround. Scrumptious! Fresh! Excellent to share different bits. Value for money. It gets busy though so you may wait, so try to go non-peak times or reserve ahead - although they take limited bookings

The food was great and the restaurant setting is very pleasant, however, we had very poor service the evening we came here. In their defence, it was absolutely packed and it appeared as if they were trying to train more staff. I would definitely be coming back to the Culture Club, especially for their dessert selection!

What an INCREDIBLE experience! The tapas was the most massive I’ve ever eaten, with gorgeous presentation, taste and variety! The location is stunning among a sea of fairy lights and trees in hazelwood‘ as Village. Our only let down was an inexperienced waiter who mixed up a few orders and the bill. I cannot wait to be back for more of the tapas options!

A spur of the moment decision and a hunger for something a little different lead is to this unbelievable restaurant. We arrived about 10 minutes before the kitchen closed (sorry about that, guys), but we were assured that we would gladly still be served. The food was still top notch and prepared with great care. What amazing experience! And the service was excellent! So impressed, and will happily return any time! Thank you so much!

Love love love this restaurant so much! We got to sample a variety of small dishes with friends. All of which was deicious. Only negative is that even though we had a set menu, there was too few items of some dishes and we had to break open croquettes so that everyone gets a taste. Wine list is great and they have a wonderful vareity of Gin!

We enjoyed a feast of flavours at Culture Club last weekend. I love that the plates are small enough to allow you to have a variety on your table. We had the homemade lemonade to start with. We then opted for the following to share - roasted pepper and feta dip with pita bread (our favourite of the night - we wiped the bowl clean!), potatoe, spinach and herb cakes, roasted butternut with feta, the Mediterranean fish and the prawns tails. Every plate was delicious in it own right and I'd gladly have any of them again. For dessert, the chocolate brownie -- oh so heavenly. All of this accompanied by great service makes this one of my favourite places in Pretoria.

We sat outside on a fairly cool Saturday evening, but there were sufficient heaters that we never felt cold.

Food was delicious and I would have kept eating if only I could have fitted more in.

The staff are friendly and informative. You can easily lose track of time here as they managed to create an excellent cosmopolitan vibe. Go early, the place fills up fast!

Saturday night was a feast of flavour at the Culture club! Our first visit was indeed a delight as we enjoyed the evening in the cosy outdoors surrounded by gas heaters in a trendy setting. The falafel balls served with mini pitas were some of the best falafel we tasted in quite some time. Our favourite was the feta served with an olive salsa and toasted bread! Definitely worth visiting based on such exquisite dishes!

Our friends live in Waterkloof and decided to treat us. Off we went to the Culture Club. As usual, I had questions about the various desserts. We decided to each choose a dessert. I chose the churros. My husband chose the creme brulee. They the Club Mess and panacotta.
They brought the desserts and we were not disappointed. They were visually beautifully done. We each shared desserts so we could all try. So good!
We had friendly staff who were courteous, friendly and fun.
If we lived here, we would be regulars.

So I've been to this Tapas spot 3 times and every time has been good. The last time we went we shared the lamb chops, chicken on a skewer, rump trinichado, greek salad and potato spinach fritters. All the food was excellent. (One of the chicken pieces was still raw in the centre, but after they brought it back it was really good). For drinks I had the cucumber and lemon cocktail, it was very cucumbery. I wouldn't order it again but if you enjoy the taste of cucmber it's good. For dessert we shared the chocolate brownie with ice cream, caramel popcorn panna cotta and the Baklava with citrus creme.. all extremely delicious. In terms of affordable resturants in Pretoria this is definetely the best. The service is also excellent, attentive yet also not in your face. I cannot reccommend one specific dish you should try as everything was amazing.

This is the second time I’ve been there and I enjoy their food and drinks. The only thing i was not impressed by, this time around was that they had a white couple getting seated on a table we had requested for upon reservation only to get a table right by the entrance, which we waited for 30min to get. Apart from that its an amazing vibe

This is the best eatery in Pretoria and probably the best in South Africa. The service is fantastic and the staff always willing to go the extra mile. The meals are consistently delicious and I have tried absolutely every meal on the menu and I have never been disappointed. The specials board is updated constantly so there are always new and exciting dishes to try out, culture club also has one of the largest gin selections I have seen at a restaurant. If I could eat there Mon-Sun I wouldn’t hesitate, Bravo Culture Club!

Thank you for a stunning evening. Culture club went out their way to help a big group of us. The service was amazing and ‘Amber’ knew the whole book of different gins and could explain what the best mixer for it all is!! We went for different tapas and they all arrived not even 10minutes after ordered. Thai squid was a clear winner and those that opted for the trinchado couldnt get enough. There was a DJ playing as well which created a great vibey atmosphere.

I really like this place! Drove there on a Sunday afternoon with my sister and her friend to grab a quick bite. We turned a corner and boom! a street lined with interesting restaurants, all different but kinda similar in vibe. There weren't that many people there as most of the restaurant were just closing but culture club was still open for business.

Im not quite sure how good their drinks are because I had one cocktail and didn't want another after that, it tasted like cool aid 😶 . BUT THAT ASIDE I enjoyed their food! I had the Rump trinchado with olives and ciabatta 🍞 and my sister and the friend both had steak which was juicy and very tasty!! For the first time I actually managed to finish an entire plate of food! Need to visit again soon, definitly recommend it👍

Man, if I lived closer, you would have to drag me away from their stoep. It has a relaxed, yet vibey atmosphere. Fresh, cool decor (feels a bit like you are on holiday somewhere in the Mediterranean). Food- flavourful, delicious, fresh, great variety. Winelist- included some good MCC options, so that had me hooked. Great service. My favourite spot on the Hazelwood strip!

I often pop into this place for after work sundowners with a couple of colleagues. The service is ideal and we often end up having drinks only. The atmosphere is great and the place is always really busy so a booking can be essential. Have not eaten much here but I will really try something in the future.

Culture Club opened more than a year ago and I have been wanting to go for ages!! Today was the day!! It was a perfect day when the husband and I decided to grab an early lunch. We were charmed by the lively atmosphere of 16th avenue and its collection of creative shops and restaurants.

Reception and service was friendly and attentive. When I couldn't find the gin on the main menu I was presented with a dedicated gin menu with a collection of craft gins as colourful and varied as your imagination! I was in love!!!

I carefully selected a hibiscus and protea flavoured gin paired with elderflower tonic and it was the most delightful refreshment i could imagine. Even before we ordered food I already picked out my next gin. An apple flavoured "elephant" gin.

On to the food!! There were many items that caught our eye, but finally i went with the pork and apple salad and parmesan zucchini. Hubby got some croquettes and beef trinchado. All the flavours of my salad worked together beautifully, i couldn't stop stuffing my face. The zucchini lacked a bit of seasoning.

For dessert, what else, churros!!!! Hooray, it was fantastic and light and crispy and the chocolate sauce devine!!

We'll be back for sure!!!

I went to Culture club with my girl friends on a Thursday afternoon just after work. The restaurant offers a cool, relaxed environment, perfect for unwinding at the end of day. As gin likers we were spoilt for choice with their method of offering a variety of gins and unique tonics. We ordered our tapas together and really enjoyed the act of sharing. The meal was well priced (averaging at R180 each incl drinks). The staff was sweet and attentive.This will definitely be our regular spot.

It was our second time at Culture Club.  I booked a table for 6 a week ago, requesting it to be on the front deck.  It was for a 45th birthday celebration.  The lady that 'welcomed' us - I can't remember her name, and do not think I want to -  yesterday at 18:00 (blond hair) showed us to our table on the side of the restaurant.  I immediately told her that this is not what we booked.  Her snotty answer?  'Why does it matter?  You are at Culture Club, aren't you?'.  She really lacks people skills.  Luckily the waiters and manager on duty saved the day.  Big thanks to them.  Food and ambiance were great.

We've been eyeing out Culture Club for a while and finally made the trip to sample their treats. This tapas eatery offers much better value for money and portion size than its Joburg competitors. It boasts a menu full of crowd pleasing dishes that ensures that everyone leaves feeling content. The halloumi and chicken strips were a hit.

My only qualm is the flavour and the balance thereof. Whilst everything is tasty, some key flavour profiles were lacking such as the paprika in the prawns or the citrus in the salt on the squid. It would be nice if the dishes were more punchy and less safe. That being said, I'm definitely adding CC to my list of go to restaurants for dinners with friends - the fairy lights are oh so magical.

We visited Culture Club for ladies night last Friday eve. We booked a table and got the best table in the house, thank you CC .... happy dance! Also the "fairy lights" all around in the trees are just magical. Culture Club Is absolutely one of my favorite restaurants and probably one of the best at the moment. From making a reservation to paying the bill everything went smooth & effortless. Just love everything about CC ... the vibe, ambiance, decor, service, staff, gin cocktails, the bar and off course the food ... just brilliant and tops!!! I asked the waitress for a gin cocktail suggestion and I was very impressed and pleased with her choice, it was amazing! A tot of "Bloedlemoen Gin" with a dash of grapefruit and tonic water, yum. We were 6 ladies and everyone ordered something different and must say each dish was prepared with so much passion and everything tasted amazing, full of flavour and delicious. I cannot fault anything. Highly recommend CC - 5⭐️ and cannot wait to return.

I love tapas and was desperately looking for a place in Pretoria that would take me on a taste-bud journey back to Spain. 

Now even though Culture Club has a whole lot of fusion options, the concept is there, and everything we tasted was absolutely scrumptious. Just pick your selection of tapas, pick a wine and enjoy. The atmosphere is absolutely delightful, yes it is busy, but you have room to breathe. Prices are reasonable and you get good value for money.

Service is good, quick and pleasant. 
This is one of my favourite eateries in Pretoria.

Culture Club is always buzzing with people. I have only heard good things about it. The restaurant is simple but attractively done with their trademark beautiful blue tiles.

We were helped by a friendly and attentive waitron who suggested a delicious craft gin combination. It was a blend of Bulldog Gin with grapefruit, lime and dried rosemary mixed with tonic water.

We shared 4 plates of Tapas. First we had zucchini slices served with mozzarella and lemon for a zesty and delicious taste. Next we had garlic and spinach potato patties which were perfectly crispy on the outside and light and fluffy inside. The fully loaded panini was also delicious. Lastly, we had the chicken strips with a cheese sauce. They were scrumptious.

Such a delicious lunch overall. I'll definitely be back.

One of the best restaurants in Pretoria at the moment I think.

The restaurant is quaint and inviting. The atmosphere is warming and classy. Interior is simple and gorgeous. The service was good, if not a bit hasty.

The front of house are friendly but a bit snobbish.

We ordered a bottle of beyerskloof wine to drink and then started our selection of tapas.

We ordered the cognac infused chicken liver pate, the roasted red pepper dip (which both came with warm toasty bread and pita breads) The chicken pate was so good that it almost brought me to tears ,cause it reminded me so much of my mom's one. The red pepper dip was really delicious and light.

We also had the crumbed fish goujons, crispy calamari, Greek salad, prawns and chorizo and the parmasan baby marrow.

The seafood was all cooked to perfection and the fish was some of the best I have ever had. The calamari was so soft and succulent. The greek salad was divine and had a huge portion of feta, the baby marrow was also really good but the chorizo and prawns (shrimp) was disappointing as it had no flavour and the shrimp were extremely over cooked and hard.

Culture club is a wonderful establishment and I have told so many of my friends to try it out and they are just as impressed. I am in love with this place.

Absolutely love this place. The meals are refreshing and light and there are so many options for you to choose from. I ordered the Parmesan chicken strips, the Italian job panini and the fish goujons. The chicken strips come with a creamy delicious cheese sauce and were definitely the highlight of my meal. They are crunchy and tender all in one and are so tasty. The Italian job has meatballs, a creamy tomato purée, pesto and a lot of cheese. It never disappoints! The goujons are also delicious and if you're feeling like some variation to the meat are definitely a good option. I would really recommend culture club as a solid lunchtime option.

Lovely restaurant, very vibey and upmarket.
They have a great cocktail menu and equally as good cocktails.
The menu is nice for picky eaters as it is more smaller portions that you can order lots of different things from.
However some of my food was a bit oily and rich, but the rest was scrumptious!
Definitely worth a visit!

A fantastic experience throughout as the service was quick and friendly and the food and cocktails had a definite wow factor. The location is also a positive however it is a bit difficult to find parking.

The parmesan chicken strips and citrus olives were faultless with the strips being the standout of the meal. The porkies ribs were tasty however some ribs were a bit tougher than others and the special of prawn tails were large and firm however they could have a bit more flavour.
Definitely will be back to try more of the exciting dishes.

If you haven't been to this restaurant, you need to go there ASAP! Everything was first class, from getting there, the service, the food and of course the electric energy. We ordered a whole lot of small dishes to make up our own tapas. The food was on our table within 10 minutes. World class service, if you ask me. Everything was tasty and full of flavour. My favourite -being a garlic addict- was the mushrooms. Done to perfection. Every mushroom was juicy and an explosion of flavour on my tongue.
The only negative I can give was the fact that it states on Zomato, that you need to make a booking. When I called at 6, they said that bookings for the night has closed. We went there regardless and managed to get a table for two, even though we were told that we will have to wait an hour and a half, for a table. Danae was gracious enough to make a plan for us. Thank you.
Please specify your table reservation times. Overall, a brilliant experience. Our waiter was attentive, quick and incredibly friendly, in every way. I think his name was Justin. Brilliant attitude. We will be back, with friends in tow.

This is a gem!! A rose between the thorns of city living! The atmosphere created in "The Village" is a beautiful little European style streetscape and it lends itself to beautiful spaces nestled between many contemporary restaurants, coffee shops and establishments!! Culture Club itself is beautiful located, the food is amazing, tapas style greek dining, great drinks, cocktails, gineria and tequilaria!! Its always busy so expect it to have an effect on service, but seriously, it is not misunderstood and never to a point where one feels neglected! Parkin. Is unfortunately an issue as are many of these style establishments as they are part of the suburban streetscape but soonest you find a spot you're in for a good time! Recommended to rather Uber or other form of public transport. But i seriously cant fault anything else!!

Having tried previously to do walk-in with lunch, we got a table straight away. Unfortunately a humid day meant a warmer setting inside, but as a light breeze started up cooled things down nicely. Prompt service, and a not too shabby wine list helped to start off the late lunch. We were happy to see a menu that doesn't try to bombard you with too many options, but still leaves room to come back again. One thing is for sure - we ordered way too much! The winner was definitely the crispy chicken with cheese sauce. A spicy trinchado, flavourful mushrooms and always favourite patatas bravas made up the rest. Service throughout was good, not too clingy but not too far. Definitely want to come back and work through the rest - need to taste the churros!

Perfect choice for a loooooooooooooong Saturday lunch, great selection of tapas( our favourites were the spanish meatballs, sticky spareribs,panko chicken strips, falafel, honey butternut, haloumi bites, patatas bravas, prawn & chorizo salsa, Chilly poppers , spinach cakes and beetroot dip). Give the tzatziki  a miss( no taste and rather watery).

Good service although the guys are much quicker to assist ( even if it is not their table to serve), than their female counterparts.

Best eat out in Pretoria. A lovely mixture of Tapas to choose from. I would recommend trying a real variety of flavours that perhaps you wouldn't normally go for as there really are a stunning assortment of tastes. Not only is the food good, but the drinks as well,  as again there is a great choice available to you! Whether its wines or a cocktail from their ever-expanding list, theres always one to compliment your meal. However from a personal view, the GnT's are certainly a go go. The Malfi Gin, fairly unique to Culture Club, is a personal favourite from the many on offer. Waiters are friendly and helpful, and are always on the look out to give your table attention. All in all, a very good eat out that i would highly recommend to anyone! 

Thank you Culture Club, we will be back :)

Culture Club is the absolute "Crown jewel" of the new Village in Pretoria, food is exceptional, the gin selection is enough to turn anyone into an alcoholic- yes it's that good! Personal favourites include the Malfy and Bloedlemoen gin (served with grapefruit) I have been there enough times now to not even bother to look at the menu! the mature rump, hallumi bites, chicken strips and Thai grilled squid are exceptional! the specials are also for ever changing according the seasonal and fresh produce that is available, which I love! The owner is very hands on and is always very welcoming and accommodating! Be sure to book at least a week in advance as it gets incredibly busy. All in all, my absolute favourite restaurant to sit under a tree, drink gin and catch up with friends. See you again soon Culture Club!

We were invited out to Culture Club on a Sunday afternoon by some Pretoria friends. Not really knowing Pretoria, we were delighted to discover Hazelwood Food Village - a collection of fabulous looking foodie spots, where Culture Club is nestled in the middle.

Culture Club serves some delicious cocktails and has a tapas only menu, perfect for sharing with a large table. I had a non-alcoholic Grenadilla Sherbet mocktail, which was fabulous. Others at the table ordered R&R's (Mozambican favorite - Rum and Rasberry), Cosmopolitans and something blue and dangerous looking 😉

We ordered a variety of tapas plates, including the Panko chicken strips, Spanish meatballs, falafel, honey-glazed butternut, sticky spareribs, patatas bravas, crumbed haloumi bites and prawn & chorizo salsa Brava.

Expecting small portions, we were totally overwhelmed by the amount of food that arrived on the table. For the price point of the plates we expected small portions - they were anything put. Everything was generously sized, a pleasant difference to what you'd get charged at a similar joint in Johannesburg.

The food was delicious. The Spanish meatballs had a pleasant zing to them; the chicken strips we're perfectly crispy, the sugar snap peas in the prawn and chorizo dish were super-fresh...I could go on and on.

Service was a little slow as the place got busier and busier, but nothing worth complaining about in such a chilled location. Wide range of age demographics just enjoying a beautiful Sunday afternoon gave a very eclectic vibe.

The only disappointment were the desert churros with chocolate orange ganache. Again, a generous portion (5 pieces of churro) but they were very oily and the chocolate ganache tasted suspiciously like cheap, melted cooking chocolate with nary a hint of orange. The chocolate mousse was however fabulous.

Overall though, a fabulous day with great food - and definite with a revisit.

Situated in Waterkloof, Culture Club transcends further than just a restaurant but a trip to Greece. The "tapas" meals allow friends and familys to join together and experience the art of sharing meals amongst one another. There are a variety of gins that will change your view on having just Gordon's and tonic water. The cocktails are simply tremendous and the actual meals leave you coming back for more. A tremdous little spot of heavan tucked away at The Village. I would recommend the thai grilled squid to any seafood lovers as the calamari is grilled to perfection and melts in your month. Definitely a restaurant to try out if you haven't been already.

This is definitely a different cuisine culture than your ordinary restaurant experience. Situated in the Hazelwood Food Village, Culture Club offers you tapas galore. This is what you would call in Afrikaans "kuierkos". Their menu offer all delicious varieties of spreads, dips, tapenades and not to mention the bites. The servings are small to decently sized and the key here is to order together and share. Although their winelist feels a bit limited I enjoyed what they had on offer. Try their Granita cooler and if you feel naughty, order a shot of tequila to zoop it up. Love this place and would definitely recommend it.

Awesome place and atmosphere, really good value for money!

Bigger tables outside would be a plus if you consider the amount of plates that are on the table.

The "smoking section" right next to the tables outside is not acceptable- I think the law says 50 meters from any entrance. If the owners could completely ban smoking it would be awesome.

Otherwise we always love coming here!

The one thing I like about tapas is that you can try many plates of different foods and even share with friends, which makes it great for socialble eating
The portions are also well priced.

For drinks order the gin and tonic. I am a fan of the malfy, which is lemon infused Italian gin....yum!

The vibe is great and very social. The only downside is that their inside section is quite small and if it rains you won't have much cover outside.

I will definitely be back again and again.

A post lunch drinks catch up in this lovely little spot. The atmosphere is so lovely and chilled and the decor beautiful.

I ordered the churros with dark orange ganache and the granadilla sherbet cocktail.
The ganache tasted so DELICIOUS, the churros were not fantastic and a tad too crispy with no "flesh" on the inside.
The cocktail was ok, nothing too memorable and a tad on the sour side.

Had lunch at this amazing restaurant to celebrate my sister's birthday. Decided on Culture Club based on the amazing Zomato reviews... and was still pleasantly surprised! Everything was exceptional!

We started with the Cognac infused chicken liver paté and stuffed jalapeno poppers, both beautifully presented on wooden boards with freshly baked ciabatta bread. The paté was delicate and smooth...will definitely recommend it!

For mains we ordered the rump with chimichurri, the prawn and chorizo with brava sauce and the Greek sardines, which was one of the specials of the day - the prawn and chorizo was the dish of the day, with the well balanced sauce and snap peas adding a fresh burst of flavour. The rump was well seasoned and prepared medium rare, just like we ordered.

And the best end to the amazing meal was the churros with dark chocolate and orange ganache sauce....crispy, rich and decadent!

Our waiter Justin was great, knew the menu well and served us with such enthusiasm and a kind and humble spirit. They also had trainee waiters who cleared the table, kept our wine glasses full and brought extra bread and refilled the ice bucket, which enhanced the eating experience.
The food was prepared in record time and arrived at the table still hot and smelling magnificent!

We will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu...Culture Club is a jewel in The Village! They are true to their motto - Share food and live...in the moment*

So yourself a favour and book a table immediately :)

A week ago we went to Lima, a tapas restaurant at Monte Casino.

Late Monday afternoon lunch at Culture Club, and what a delight this place turned out to be! With most restaurant kitchens in The Village closing between 15h00 and 18h00, we were happy to find Culture Club having continued service! This was our first time to at this restaurant, and now I am sorry not to have discovered it earlier!

Decor is laid back with funky tables and jean-covered seating cushions. The outside seating on a late winters' afternoon was a bit chilly, but nothing a jacket couldn't solve. Relaxing atmosphere, I can just imagine the sounds of sax player drifting towards us from a far off corner of the restaurant.

On to the menu... We love eating tapas-style food, so the menu had us quite excited! Many options to choose from, and as usual we went a bit overboard with our order! Chicken liver pate and hummus with pita bread and toasted baguettes, Parmesan chicken strips with a cheese dipping sauce, beef trinchado strips, calamari salad. All so delicious and every bite very tasty and flavourful! The zucchini bites were a bit tender for my liking, but the melted Parmesan on top was a good touch.

Attentive waiters topped off a great lunch experience. Cannot wait to take our friends there and share this newly discovered restaurant with them!

What an experience!

First off, let's get the setting straight. Imagine a little crossing filled with culinary delights. Upbeat and upmarket restaurants, bistros, coffee shops and this incredibly smart tapas bar.

Now. The service. We were pleasantly greeted by literally each and every waitron. Thereafter, seated and served by the sweetest and most efficient young lady. It is always refreshing to have such a pleasant experience without a hitch and with several smiles.

After inhaling an entire table filled with food (we thought there would have been much less for some unfathomable reason) and only stopping because we literally couldn't eat anymore, I got an entire bag filled with leftovers to take home. The excitement is real. The smoked salmon with the lemon cilantro was amazingly flavorful and the chicken livers some of the best I've ever had. This is only some of the few delightful dishes we had the pleasure of experiencing!

In conclusion, this is an incredible place to come to. Bring plenty of friends, share the best food, good company and great wine. I can't wait to go back and try out the rest!

I had a pomegranate spritzer - fizzy and cool, rather sweet with lemonade. Next time I'll have it with sodawater.
We shared a selection of tapas. All delicious. In particular the Portugese chicken skewer (hint of peri-peri). The steak with chimmichuri was slightly chewy but delicious.
For dessert we had fantastic churros with orangery chocolate sauce and light chocolate mousse. It was divine!

Lovely venue. Such a pretty restaurant. Expect to ring up a (well worth it) hefty bill. Between two of us we shared 4 tapas plus churros for dessert. The pan fried haloumi was delicious. The herb crusted fish goujons were my favorite. So crisp and the fish so fresh. The cheese sauce that comes with the Parmesan chicken strips was so cheesy. Churros for dessert were so light and crisp and went so well with the orange chocolate sauce. Come early or book a table as it gets really packed here! Our server, Ettiene, was really sweet and service was really quick.

A very viby spot to hang out with friends and loved ones even a date night is awesome. Service is great but does slow down as it gets busy so that's understandable. For the Karen's and Henry's.....not a place for you. The food portions is very adequate and you get stuffed quickly. Really a nice family oriented business and Mangers and Owner is constantly checking on the guests, and for that I rate them a 10 star.

It is a beautiful restaurant, situated in a beautiful area. We had a farewell lunch for a colleague who was leaving our office. We had a nice time. The prices are affordable as well. The views are exquisite. The stuff was also very friendly. We loved it and we had a very nice time ❤️

What a nice experience! The service is top notch, and the food is delicious. We couldn't get enough. This is a must visit place! I really would like to thank the waitstaff for the outstanding service. Well done! Edit: We went back a couple of times, and every time, we were blown away by the food.

This resturant is situated in an area that has a lot of small resturants next to each other and therefore finding parking was just a nightmare. It took me almost 20minutes to eventually find parking. The food was great my favourite was the lamb cigars. Service was also great as the waiter was very attentive and friendly.

Incredible tapas menu options. The portions are quite sizable. The food is incredible, The nachos were flavourful, well made and filling. The chicken strips were crunchy, juicy and tender. The food is always amazing and the servers are just as outstanding. No matter which server we get, the standard and quality of the service remains the same.

It was lovely. They have a different menu set up. It was lovely to explore it. The food is delicious. The staff is so friendly. It is a beautiful environment. We enjoyed their Portuguese Chicken, Calamari and Prawns and Patatas 😁... And for dessert... we had the brownie and crushed lemon meringue... 👌

Food is a 8.5/10, but the value for money is insane! So so so much food! Had a great vibe too. Oh, and the Churros - delicious!

Good vibes, very attentive waiters and managers. We had cosmopolitans and a small sharing meal, both were excellent. I will be back to try some other dishes. Only problem I have is that I called at 11am to make a booking, and they told me no booking is necessary as they wont be busy. However, when we got there they were basically full and had to seat us inside until they could get us a table outside. I would have preferred to be allowed to make a booking.

Really enjoyed dining here for the first time. Great venue/ambience, great service and great food to go along with it. Those lamb and mint cigars are especially good. The cocktail recommended by our waitress was really good. The patatas bravas were a slight let down as the sauce could have been more spicy, and the potatoes could have been more crispy. Their marinated olives do deserve an honourable mention. Great for sharing, generous with their portions overall. Would gladly return to try out the rest of the menu.

The food is absolutely amazing and well priced. We ate a couple of things that were all great, the green beans, potatoes, steak, calamari and chorizo and the churros to name a few. There non alcoholic cocktails are also really good
