    We've booked the Easter Sunday Lunch meal and we had a nice experience in the restaurant, with the food and especially the service being particularly excellent. The dissapointing factor was that while making the online booking and prepayment of lunch there wasn't a note to say we will also have to pay the entrance fees to the gardens. I was very surprised to see that in an email received just a day before the reservation with no time to book another location. As some of our guest were from overseas, the Lunch experience became quite expensive and left me with a feeling I was mislead. This should be properly advertised !

    It was wonderful. Sadly, the restaurant was very empty so one could easily feel 'lost' in the space - however, we were early it was a late brunch so understandable. Everyone was happy with their meals. Thank you. Your staff were very polite and obliging.

    The food was good. However we were a table of 9 and one of us needed to wait for food quite a while after the other 8 had received their food. By the time her meal came, half of the table was finished eating. I felt the service was slow although the restaurant didnt seem very busy. The slow service seemed to be in general and not by our waitress specifically. We came to the restaurant about 50 minutes before our reservation so that the kids could play outside and the rest could have a drink and cool down before starting lunch. One of our guests went to the toilets and walked past the manager who was clearly agitated and swearing, saying that guests mustn't come early and they must "fokkof". Not very professional in a space where guests can hear you. We were also bothered by flies at the table and had to eventually request candles or something that might deter the flies. On a positive, the malva pudding was the best I've ever had.

    Thank you for your feedback, Tarryn. We're glad you enjoyed the food, especially the malva pudding, but we’re sorry to hear about the service delays and other concerns. This is not the experience we want for our guests. We appreciate your honesty and hope to welcome you back for a smoother experience in the future.
