Located in the heart of Gauteng’s busiest tourism route, Molitva is perfectly positioned in The Cradle of Humankind. A mere 3km’s from the Rhino and Lion Nature Reserve, this country gem is a quick turn off Kromdraai Road. Specialising in fresh, organic, homegrown fruits and vegetables, Molitva’s mouthwatering food menu will charm any tastebuds. The menu is largely centered around a range of mezze and tapas styled foods from various Mediterranean cuisines, but also offers those that prefer something a little more substantial; homemade pasta’s, an array of salads, a selection of grills and a variety of appetizing burgers.

Head chef and part owner, Milan Cerimaj describes Molitva’s cuisine as “Orthodox Mediterranean” with subtle twists and adaptations.

Surrounded by the green, lush countryside and mountainous views, this restaurant and pub is the perfect setting for a day out with the family, a romantic date or a time to kick back and relax with friends.

    Terrible service. Completely untrained waiters who stand around chatting with each other ignoring the customers. Waiters do not understand what is on the menus.

    Disappointed and annoyed. After confirming a booking on Dineplan days in advance, we made a 50-minute drive to the restaurant only to be told by security that the restaurant is closed. While at the gate, the security personnel phoned one of the managers and asked her if she wants to speak to us and explain but she declined to speak to us. The least she could have done is apologise.

    We waited for over 2h30 min for our food which is shocking. Our table wasn't made up, and your wine list very poor. The staff are very friendly but that can only go so far. The menu's on the black boards were unclear and not explained.

    I was super super disappointed! I have wanted to come to this restaurant for a really long time time, so Christmas seemed like the perfect day, I even had my parents with me because I thought they would a great experience- but it was terrible! The waitress got 3 orders wrong, she spilled coffee, spilled our MCC, the service was absolutely horrendous! The food was great, but we are not short of great food , the experience of driving 45 minutes out and then getting such underwhelming service was shocking. I definitely won’t recommend this place

    The service was very Poor, the tables set up was bad also, the food was nice but not worth the R2000 bill that I paid, honestly I feel robbed.
