Review Safari - Pretoria

Stani I
Visiting Safari Restaurant and Conference Centre, has been a delightful experience throughout the years. The establishment have a good restaurant on site. The first thing that always struck me upon arrival is the beautiful greenery surrounding the property. It created a serene and inviting atmosphere that instantly put me at ease. In addition to the restaurant, Safari Restaurant and Conference Centre also offers a fantastic selection of flowers and garden supplies. It's a one-stop shop for all your gardening needs. The combination of a wonderful restaurant, beautiful greenery, and a well-stocked garden supply store makes it a must-visit destination.

This restaurant and conference centre provides a really beautiful setting to enjoy a pleasant meal and to relax. The layout is a bit disjointed, which probably creates a lot of work for the staff, but it is all part of its charm. It also has a sports bar, a conference centre and does catering for private events. I will definitely spend more time here.

Would recommend a reservation and this place is definitely not a place for people who are in a rush as the walk trails and the flowers are so mesmerising. The personnel are friendly and really doing their best keeping the clients happy saw more than one waiter running with food. We were directed to our table menus were handed and drinks were ordered not even 5 min later our drinks arrived (thank you Morris) Note that you need to pay extra for takeaway containers. The food is really good with reasonable prices.Really enjoy the experience as I love plants will definitely return

George served us quite well, we even forgot our phones and he located us, he was extremely honest and faithful, I'd come back for him anyday

It's such a lovely setting. Birds chirping in the trees everywhere. Ducks swimming in the ponds. Waterfalls around every corner. Lovely play area for the little ones (away from the water and safe). The nursery has a great selection, too. Lots of parking nearby, with easy access (including disabled access). Enjoyed a meal there. Slightly on the expensive side (given nearby alrernatives). But alternatives don't offer the same setting. Enjoyed it.

This spot is incredible, we felt like we had to pay just to enter. Stunning and perfect for large groups or just a quiet couple lunch

Amazing place to go for a relaxing day out! It feels like you've escaped the city and are enjoying nature as the outside world is hidden from view within the walls. The nursery is well laid out forcing you explore and they have an amazing selection of plants.

What a lovely surprise of a place, they have a variety of interesting things for whole family - a nursery, farm animals, kiddies play area, a bar and restaurant set in a lush outdoor setup. Their prices are just right and the meal portions are fair.
Robert Manganyi
We had a lovely time. The kids loved the animals and the playing area.
Olivia La Grange
Stunning venue with great service. I would recommend a smaller menu with more attention to the preparation. Such a MASSIVE menu is difficult to maintain at a high standard. All in all a lovely experience and unmatched setting between the lush vegetation and birdlife. Will of course be back.

Watching waiters picking their noses while we are preparing to order food. Beautiful setting and view but service is not up to scratch nor prices for what I’ve seen today
Charlotte Sutherland
The food and service do not match the prices on menu or the beautiful setting. Overpriced small portions. The veggie burger contained pieces of potato and whole chickpeas, it fell apart and lacked seasoning. Bagel with ham was very small portion for the price charged. Nachos are much better at Spur.
Stefan Van Niekerk
Very beautiful setting ideal for kids and family gatherings. The food is great and not that expensive if you compare it to places like Mugg and Bean and Cappuccinos. Definitely worth the visit!

I never write reviews but it would be irresponsible not to warn others about the incredibly AWFUL food here, which is only matched by the HORRIBLE service.  No need to go any further, my advice STAY AWAY!!! <br/><br/>****I would have given a ZERO but not possible.

Had the Grilled steak, with salad.<br/><br/>Was a dried out piece of meat, with a little bit of basting sauce. <br/><br/>For the price, i really expected much more. <br/>And worse part is, i ordered it Medium. <br/><br/>

The uploaded pictures of the menu are out of date. Prices are about double that now. Beautiful place, but the service and food were unacceptable. The overpriced food that eventually arrived at our table was cold and the portion sizes were poor. The cappucino's milk was sour. When the bill came, they charged for the tap water that we ordered. <br/>Horrible experience. <br/>
Jacques Raj Swart
Great atmosphere with all the waterfalls, plants and birds around. Service was good, food was deliciously prepared (just small portions though), well presented. No desert on menu.
Marian Bezuidenhout
Hands down the worst restaurant meal. Chicken breast tasted awful with plastic sauce, baked and probably reheated, sweet potatoes completely stone cold, spinach tasted like bleach.  This is our third disappointment with meals at Safari restaurant. Spoiled our celebration. Such a pity as setting is beautiful

Came here as a trip down memory lane. Our kids loved it here when they were small. But it turned out to be similar to the memory of and ingrown toenail. The worst food and service I have experienced this year. Expensive and pathetic. I believe we got the same batch of burger patties we did eight years ago. Horrible. Soggy onion rings. A sub that's a hotdog roll with a tablespoon of chicken on it. For R58! No garnishing or anything with it. Never again! Burger was R91 with a cheese sauce that was inedible. Avoid! Avoid! At all cost!

We just had the best time at Safari. It's perfect if you have children there is a train that takes the kids around, animals and a jumping castle. Really a great Sunday outing. The food was average and although we asked for a scrambled egg we got a chopped up fried egg. Not happy with that and not really impressed with the food. But like I said it was a great outing for the kids.
Megan Naude
The quality of the food is not up to standard with the price, if you don't believe me go order a sub there, it is basically just a hotdog bun, no salad or chips, reminded me of something I ate at a funeral . Very disappointed but the rest of the place is still nice

Tried this place out while looking around the plant nursery, sad to say that I would not recommend it for anyone to try out if they are a foodie. I ordered a cheesecake, a plate of nachos and the Chai latte. For the cheesecake, to my dismay, they had failed to mention that it was refrigerad so the taste was overly rich with cream with a far too sweet berry jam topping. The plate of nachos was a disaster for the high pricing as the nachos were doritos with cheddar cheese and what tasted like store bought toppings all on a measily side plate. Lastly for the Chai latte it was nothing to do with Chai but a vanilla milkshake topped with cinnamon. The atmosphere is casaul depending on your seating, I would like warn of the exorbetant amount of flies buzzing about... Would not visit this establishment any time again in the future. Dissapointing for a place that could have so much potential.

Very very slow service, waited way to long for only hamburgers. Choose your seating very carefully, as we landed right next to a little "lapa" tipe of area with an uncontrolable noisy bunch of woman having a bridal shower.

Love coming here for lunch, especially eating the eisbein or burgers. It's such a relaxing venue with all the water features and koi ponds. Feel like I can take a breather and enjoy my meal with no rush. Friendly and efficient staff.

Love coming here!<br/><br/>Perfect for a family occasion or just a chilled out day looking at plants.<br/><br/>As a child we came here with family and we use to play in the kiddies petting zoo while our parents eat and drink coffee, birthday parties and kitchen teas, even baby-showers!<br/><br/>When we were older / Teenagers we use to hang out at the pub, have drinks and watch sports events, then weddings and more parties!<br/><br/>When I was a student, I use to come here on sundays, eat a magnum and walk through the gardens, <br/><br/>After that my husband and i come here regularly for a weekend breakfast or just afternoon Chicken Burger.<br/><br/>I love Safari, they have the most diverse plant selection and the orchid shows are beautiful!
