    The restaurant location is gorgeous! The food though was very hit and miss - the starters were good while the mains were horrific - they didn’t taste fresh at all. And the dessert was good. Service was a struggle - I think the restaurant should hire more staff as it took 20 mins just to place an order or to get dessert.

    The one meal was in correctly delivered and had to be replaced. The descriptions of the desserts did not match what was delivered.

    Worst dining experience in Jozi. Made a reservation and then they just decided to give the table away. Land saddle was more like lamb sticks it was so dry and then the steak was overcooked. Flies everywhere and just atrocious

    We appreciate the time you took to share your feedback about your recent experience at our restaurant. We are disappointed that our service and offering did not meet your expectations and your experience was not up to our normal high standards. However, after conducting a thorough investigation into the matter, we have found that the events described in your review do not accurately reflect the circumstances surrounding your dining experience. We understand that misunderstandings can occur and that not all dining experiences are what guests expect, but we are not able to validate your entire review on this occasion. At the Old Oak we are committed to providing the highest level of service to our customers and are constantly working to improve on our offering. However, it seems on this occasion we could not meet your expectations and hope you will visit again to give us the opportunity to reflect this. Best Regards The Old Oak Restaurant

    The response is disingenuous and seeks to shift the blame. I am happy to elaborate further but not on a public platform and more than happy to meet with management
