Apprentice Restaurant, situated in George, Western Cape, is the natural progression from the François Ferreira Academy. Our restaurant serves its customers delicious meals in an exquisite formal setting, where customers will get a feel of a genuine fine-dining experience. Our aspiring chefs in training at our state-of-the-art Academy, need a soft landing in the industry where they will prepare to go into the world and share a kitchen with another chef. At Apprentice, the chefs in training will be working as part of a professional team, adding their talent to the mix, and at the same time learning from the masters in the kitchen.

    My husband enjoyed the oxtail. Other family complained that it was not soft fall if the bone cooked oxtail . I had the short rib for a change but found it to be far too fatty . Understand my choice was silly as short rib is fatty. My biggest moan was the apple and berry pudding. Non of us that had it could cut into the apple it was so hard. One blueberry and a half strawberry. Other than that our waiter was fab. Everyone did enjoy the get together birthday celebration.

    The food was amazing and the manager also however it was clear that staff did not show up for work and they were super short staffed Unfortunately the service was none existent, I had fetch menus and go to the counter to order a dribk, seeing that i waited 30 mins already. I had to clear our table myself because no one did. Not happy with the service at all but the food was amazing!
