Located in Holiday Inn Express if you are not familiar with the layout the entrance can be hard to find despite directions. The ambience is really good. It was an official party not so crowded so we had a good time. Couple of beers.I had my first taste of Windhoek. I ordered the flaties and it was juicy and flavorful.
My colleagues were really impressed by the meat quality.
Definitely going back for some steak.

Will Definitely Be Coming Back To Butcher Block Umhlanga 👌
Nice dedicated staff! A warm welcome from our waiter. Peaceful environment. Ambience, good service & food 💯 I had a great 21st birthday celebration... Me and my friends had so much fun in this place and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone else. You won't regret it! Stay wonderful @Butcher Block uMhlanga, be back soon 💞
Had great food especially if you have the steak unfortunately I don't eat beef so friends tried it and said it was perfectly cooked they way they wanted it. I had a Chicken dish and the chicken was moist. Waiters were fast aswell.
One of my favorite restaurants to visit. The lamb shank on a bed of mash with gravy is a must try for first time visitors. The chicken schnitzel is the most tender piece of crumbed chicken fillet I've ever tasted, paired with a creamy mushroom sauce and a fresh side salad for the carb conscious foodie.

Today I was given the opportunity to review Butcher Block in Hillcrest. This was my first restaurant that I have been asked to do so. Being a qualified chef, it’s always hard to be impressed by restaurants as
You know what’s quality when you taste it. As I walked in I was greeted by the manager and my soon to be waiter, who’s name was Kevin. Since the restaurant just opened half an hour ago, I had my choice of where to sit. I always stray to those comfy couches. I was handed the menu and given a couple minutes to scan through. My waiter came back and asked If I’m ready to order a beverage. But when I asked for a non alcoholic drinks menu, they had none. Which was disappointing, as I had to ask the waiter to list everything that was non alcoholic. I decided to order a Bar One Milkshake, which was really tasteless and a bit over priced for a below average milkshake. My food choices were the Marrow Bones, Calamari and Chorizo for the starters. The Shisa Nyama Board and BBC from the Butchers Choice Selection for mains. The food arrived promptly and everything was hot. I got to taste a bit of everything and all I can say is, the food was phenomenal. From the starters to the mains everything was seasoned well and had great taste and flavour. The Steak was cooked as per my request of Medium Rare. The waiter came half way through to check up and see if everything was good, which shows he was really attentive. The overall experience was exceptional with good service and great food. I definitely will be back soon and recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for quality in dining
My medium fillet was perfection. The flavor on the butternut that accompanies the steak is sublime along with perfectly crisp fries that are fluffy inside. One of my top 5 meals! Need to try out the Florida Road branch soon..
Lafika S Ntanta . Dinner was great. All the meat was cooked to our respective temperatures and well basted. Not an unhappy face in sight. Would come back again.
Visited recently and loved the food. Had the Mozambican strips to start was enjoyable but rather mild. They had a steak special that night so we both tried it out after the amazing description by the waiter. It was a fillet stuffed with jalapeno and cheese then wrapped with bacon and grilled, it was topped with a brown mushroom and a vodka, paprika infused butter. Boy were we glad we tried it, it was absolutely amazing with the steak melting in your mouth and just delicious, definitely The best I've had in recent months. Unfortunately we were too hungry to take our picturesIan
Extremely tasty cheesy garlic roll. The chicken schnitzel is average but non the less tasty... service is adequate. Nice ocean view even though far from the beach...
Celebrated my son's 21st here. Enjoyed their value for money lunch deals. Excellent service from Pume, Rose and Thobe from the booking till we left. Thank you
Food is generally good here.
The food was delicious and really fast. I had the Roquefort snails and they were large and tender, not overcooked or rubbery as they tend to be with large snails. The sauce was creamy and very well balanced and did not have an overpowering Roquefort flavour. I then had the surf and turf with the rump and white wine sauce. The steak was nice and thick and very juicy and my side baked potato was perfect. Service was awesome. Well done team
Had a little Christmas party at Butcher Block. Lunch special was delicious. R139 included drink and a veggies instead of chips. Worth going there.
Excellent service!The food is delicious & the staff are friendly 😋 They've got a Mon-Thur lunchtime special for only R99 & you get a glass of red or white wine with your meal 🍷! You have a choice of sea views or outside seating.Awesome ambience 👌
Waiter was a bit up with her nose, probably just a bad day. She did warm up later..
Food was tasty, drinks were delicious, busy busy when we left but all in all a good night out for dining.
I had their baby chicken flatty... surprised it aint no baby chicken..."facepalm" was good tho!!
Absolutely great service and tasty food, I had the lamb shank with a buttery mash and honey glazed carrots, shank could be eaten with a spoon as it was melt in the mouth. My partner had the lamb chops which were tender and well done to perfection, we finished of with a dessert of missippi mudpie to share, this was a perfect finish to the evening.
We tried them again on the next night but as we returned late to our hotel (21:45pm) we went to the restaurant at (22:00pm) time for the kitchen to call it a night but the staff and manager on duty didn't refuse us and took our order of lamb ribs which were the most amazingly tender, fall of the bone ribs we ever had. Overall great food and outstanding service!
I went to the restaurant last week for lunch with my dad and the venue has an aesthetic sitting area with plentiful natural lighting. The restaurant has lunchtime special offers which we decided to try. The special offers 5 lunch time options for R89 and includes a glass of a red/white Durban Hills wine. The special is only valid on weekdays and is not available on weekends and publics holidays
Thank you for making our double celebration so special. Our waitress Rose was a delight and on top of things.
Family friendly. Plenty of parking.
Good spot for meat and wine lovers! Preferably go with a local who can guide you on the choices! The staff is nice and prices are reasonable. Nice and quiet atmosphere.

Booked for dinner for my dad's birthday. Our waitress Zama was so attentive although the restaurant was packed to capacity. She was sweet and friendly and made sure that everything we ordered was brought to use in a timely manner. All the staff we interacted with were pleasant. For starters we orders garlic and herb snails and stickey chicken wings. My dad enjoyed the snails which were served with crispy bread to mop up the garlic and herb butter. The chicken wings were so tender and flavourful. For mains we had a chicken flattie with BBQ sauce, a fillet steak with added mushroom sauce and a T-bone all served with delicious veggies (buttery mash, butternut and green beans). The steaks were done perfectly. Super soft, tender and juicy. The portions are very generous as you can see from the caccompanying photos. They were also kept the cake that I brought in the fridge until we were ready for it. Zama brought it out on anoyhrt platter with spoons and plates for us and they had even placed the numbers and candles and lit them for us as well. We will definitely be back! Thank you for the fantastic service!!
