    Hi guys, I would have given them 5 stars for everything, but I picked up food poisoning here. I literally got sick driving home after I ate there. Flies are a big problem and because the cows walk freely around the restaurant, I believe something got in my food or drink.

    The Wagyu Experience responded on Mon 17 Feb 25:
    Hi Dewald, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry to hear that you felt unwell after your visit. Guest health and safety are our top priorities, and we take concerns like this very seriously. Please know that we adhere to strict hygiene and food safety protocols to maintain the highest standards in our kitchen and dining areas. While our open-farm concept allows guests to enjoy the unique experience of free-roaming wagyu, we continuously work to manage environmental factors like flies to ensure a clean and comfortable dining space. We’d also like to mention that we have not received any other reports of guests feeling unwell after dining with us this weekend. However, we would love to discuss your experience further so we can look into this properly. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at marketing@thewagyu.co.za We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for a better experience in the future.

    For R175 the burger was delicious but tiny….it didn’t fill me up. We ordered a side of onions but would have appreciated the waitress telling us that the burger comes with onions! Also, on Valentine’s Day, any gesture would have been nice….nothing…..

    The Wagyu Experience responded on Mon 17 Feb 25:
    Hi Tanya, Thank you for sharing your feedback—we truly appreciate it. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the burger, but we’re sorry the portion size didn’t meet your expectations. Our wagyu burgers are made with premium-quality beef, and we’ll certainly take your comments into consideration as we review our portioning. We also appreciate your note about the onions and will use this as a training opportunity to ensure our team provides clearer menu guidance. Regarding Valentine’s Day, we sincerely regret that we fell short in making the occasion feel special for our afternoon guests. While we did have a little something planned for our evening guests, we understand that every guest throughout the day should feel valued, and we apologize for the oversight. Your feedback is invaluable, and we’ll be sure to improve on this for future occasions. We hope to welcome you back soon and provide an even better experience next time.

    We received a phone call as we took the turnoff to the deli for our 7pm booking and was informed that our booking is cancelled due to load shedding. Surely an institution of this caliber, charging such premiums should be well prepared for such circumstances? We made our way to one of the many family restaurants in Paarl and did not even notice the power was down.
