One of the first signature chef restaurants in the Cape Winelands, Jordan Restaurant brought Chef George Jardine’s brand of contemporary fare from city to country in 2009.

We are excited to announce that Marthinus Ferreira, of Dw eleven – 13 in Johannesburg, has taken over the management of The Jordan Restaurant, taking over from Chef George Jardine. The signature restaurant will trade under the name The Jordan Restaurant with Marthinus Ferreira.

Marthinus Ferreira has helped shape the South African food scene, with his flair for food gastronomy inspired by his childhood favourites and influences from abroad, having worked with some of the world’s top chefs, including Chef Gordon Ramsay & Chef Heston Blumenthal.

Gourmet Guide Description

Here, the outside comes in with expansive views of the lake and vineyards that are purely paintable. And so are the plates… Chef Marthinus Ferreira’s contemporary, sophisticated dining is premium. Dishes are flavourful, and sauces sublime. He’s a chef who has embraced the art of classical French cooking, infused with tastes gleaned from other European destinations.

Take a leap and order the tasting menu, as you’ll find it hard to choose from the à la carte; each plate has its own appeal. The bread course alone is a veritable feast, with merlot butter, a spinach salad oozing umami, olives, and a miniature version of a Greek salad served on a cucumber slice – all in the spirit of giving.

Mains are all drawcards, with the confit pork belly accompanied by pommes purée, buttered radish, fermented apple, remoulade, cranberry ketchup, and morel pork jus being a standout. All meals complement the array of premium Jordan wines on offer and others, creating a companionable dining experience that celebrates the place and its produce.

    Dear Jordan-Wines Team, We sincerely appreciate your outstanding service and hospitality. In particular, we would like to highlight the personalized tour through the vineyards and cellar, which was both informative and engaging. The tasting menu served as a perfect conclusion to an already remarkable experience. We were truly impressed by the amuse-bouches and starters, and the smoked goat dish was a unique sensory delight. We look forward to visiting the Jordan-Wines Team again in the future. Best regards, Johannes

    What a great lunch! Everything was simply perfect: the setting with the beautiful view, the wooden tables with the potterie, the service, the surprise prestarter with the salad and the sweet potato bun and of course the food. My husband opted for the bobotie tartar and the kabeljou, I enjoyed the crayfish and duck, what a combination ,and the kabeljou. Jordan‘s is one of our places in South Africa. Thank you all
