The seafood platter was absolutely divine, it was so creamy and tasty. The best I’ve had really and I will definitely visit Adega again.
Lazy weekend lunch. The waiter was insisting on one of the special platters. Since we had heavy breakfast we went for Prawns Nacional and Surf and Turf. The prawns was perfectly cooked with right amount of spice. The Surf and Turf was good and the steak was done just right
Went down to Adega for some prawns so we decided to get a platter for two and a seafood pasta that was extremely delicious...A big ups to Adega Gateway 👌
Seafood platters was super fresh and a must order, portion sizes was beyond what we expected. Staff are super friendly and fast aswell. Very neat and tidy restaurant.

After a long hard day of shopping I was looking forward to a relaxing and heart warming meal. My sis in law suggested Adega and as I haven’t been to any of their branches I thought I’d give it a try.
This restaurant is located at the Gateway Mall and has seating both inside and outside. It was a bit nippy so we decided to sit inside. The overall appearance is clean and neat. The lighting is a bit too bright making everything look a bit clinical.
There is a large variety of dishes on the menu and it is reasonably priced. The average price per person was R250.00. The staff was efficient and attentive. I would have tipped more for service had they not been presumptuous enough to already add 10% to the bill. I personally don’t appreciate this practice.
The food was very good and everyone got exactly what they ordered and what they expected. Their hot chili sauce is devilish😅. It is definitely not for the faint hearted. Stay away unless you wish to burn off your tastebuds.
There are 2 reasons why I’m giving this restaurant only 4 stars. Something about the way the place looked, the atmosphere and the way all the different dishes looked so similar made me feel like I was in a Stepford movie. Even though my food was cooked perfectly I couldn’t relax enough to enjoy it. I took most of my food home and later enjoyed it throughly in front of the tv.
I may eat there again because the food was good but I will not be going there with a date.
Love their Spring Chicken.. Tastes Amazing!! With that Extra Hot Sauce on the side😋😋 The Cheesy Garlic Bread is really good as well as the Creamy Vegetables. Not badly priced at all..
Really worth it👍
Good service- waiters are very friendly and ready to help. Great food-Calamari and prawns are cooked to perfection and tasty. Nice chill out spot
Such a wonderful spot for either a casual or formal meal.
The seafood classic options are available here, from fishy platter(s) to sushi. Food quality was rather exceptional, i was completely satisfied and stuffed.
We had the unfortunate luck of getting a vexatious waiter who not only forgetful, but chose our eating time to sweep and pick up dirt. The last time we visited it was much better. However, the service all round seemed adequate.
Those in the gateway region should pay a visit, I know I'll be returning :)
Been a few times. Chicken is my favorite. Staff alittle bit slow at times. Greek salad is always fresh. The dipping sauce that comes with the bread is very spicy and hot. Wish they turn it down slightly
After trawling this large expanse that is Gateway, we decided to visit this restaurant after having good experience in the Fordsburg (Johannesburg) branch. We were not disappointed. The garlic roll was tasty. We had the LM chicken. The flavour was great. However the chicken itself was not so fresh. The decor was nice. Would visit here again.
A little hesitant at first because of the bad reviews I had read about this place. But to my surprise the service was quick and efficient. The food was absolutely delicious and I would definitely go back.
The restaurant was busy with what looked like a function but service levels did not drop. The food came quickly and was well presented. Tasted very good as usual. Opted for the usual prawn pasta which was delicious, once again. Service was excellent as well.
This has to be my favourite Adega. While it's halaal & does not serve alcohol, the food we eat is flavoursome. We generally go for the platter with chicken & prawns that can serve four...ideally size for a family to share. The chicken, made hot, is delicious with the flavour going right to the bone of the chicken. Really good!
I recently went back to Adega and I noticed that serviettes have been changed! I don't know if management actually paid heed to my zomato review but I'm very pleased :-D with the food as well so I'm upping my rating from 3.0 to 3.5
-------------------------------------------------------------
I tried the tempura prawns as a starter. The prawns were really succulent with a crisp coating. I had the grilled chicken as a main and the sauce it comes in is divine.
A really nice touch is the complimentary bread basket and periperi sauce.
The setup of the restaurant is quite average and maybe a little more attention should be paid on the little things like serviettes and tablecloths.
very pricey luxury eating experience i think its much more than 200 for 2 people ..service is good food is good but its not a weekly food place ..nice moktails
Always enjoy the food at Adega and do believe they have the best Portuguese chicken in Durban by it's flavour and succulence.the heat rating on it also sits very high compared to many:).also their seafood is a force to be reckoned with.
Enjoyed our late lunch, went in a group ordered a combination of steak and seafood. Everything was good, no complaints.
Personally no complaints. I've had the lamb chops. They were done the way I like them with a generous portion of chips. My friend didn't enjoy her prawn stuffed Calamari. But overall a good experience. 👍
Had a lovely team lunch here this afternoon. The staff were brilliant. We had a group of 20 people and the orders ranged from starters to mains and dessert and different drinks and there were no mix ups. Our waiters were spot on with all the orders and so friendly and ready to assist us. The meals were absolutely divine! Very healthy portion sizes as you can see from the photos below. See photo labels for descriptions of each dish. A must visit in my opinion for a really hearty delicious meal with excellent service! Superb Adega Gateway! Keep it up 👌🏼
Must visit restaurant. Their LM style chicken is simply out of the world. Whenever we are in Durban we ensure to have our maximum meals from here.
Great service, great food, platters are good value for money. Indeed you get what you pay for. Team Adega keep doing what you're doing. Was there on the 1st of August I highly recommend trying the Summer sizzler! Deliciously generous portions!
It has been a while since we ate at Adega, and there might have been a few tweaks on the menu, but the food still tastes great!
We tried their Chicken pasta, which was creamy, with the option of linguine or penne pasta, & the Chicken strips & rice, it was marinated in a slightly spice sauce and you have a choice between the chips or the rice. We did ask if they do half chips and half rice, and our waiter said unfortunately not. I would suggest that a half & half on the sides, could be added in as an option. Budget for two people +-R300.
The menu is very unprofessional as it has advertisements in there which clutters it .The garlic rolls and tempura prawns were mediocre and the halloumi cheese starter was great . The salaad was served with poor effort and a very low quality of lettuce drawning in water .
The steak was tender was tender and pleasing . The chicken pasta was better then the prawn pasta
The prawns, chicken and fish in hot were rich and tasty I preferred it over the mild .
Delicious food and generous portions. Ideal Halal family restaurant. Gateway Mall has ample parking, so parking is definitely not a problem.
The food here is always awesome! Their prawn and chicken dishes are to die for.
Best seafood restaurant by far! Food was always fresh. I love the sauce! But the chicken and seafood are too be reckoned with! Can't wait for my next visit when I come down to Durbz.

What a lovely atmosphere for a weekday lunch time treat. Efficient and great service and food. Their chicken is amazing. Highly recommend.
Food was great, service was decent, it is a bit pricey compared to other nearby restaurants and theres a fixed 10% service added after the meal but the food portion is quite large and makes up for it.
Very tasty food. Excellent service.
