The 300 seater Chiefs Boma African Dining Experience Restaurant, located in the tranquil indigenous gardens of the Indaba Hotel, Spa & Conference Centre caters for all tastes. Cuisine is truly African from the North African Moroccan Dishes to Koeksisters and Melktert from the Cape. With over 120 dishes, everyone will find their favourite.

The Boma also boasts a "Shisa Nyama" grill where our Chefs will prepare your preferred cut of meat, carefully selected by our on-premises butcher, to your specification – a great combination of Buffet and Tailor-made Cooking to suit all tastes. A variety of game meats including Springbok, Impala, Ostrich and the Boma Signature "Big 5 Kebab" is also offered.

Enjoy Sundowners or Craft Beer on the deck overlooking the Boma Dam featuring Soweto Gold On Tap. Meander through the Boma Herb Garden before sitting down to enjoy your meal to the sounds of the Resident African Marimba Band – and when all is done, enjoy a glass of red wine or roast a marshmallow over Boma Fire.

...a truly African Dining Experience

    Buffets are few and haven't been to one in a while. The live music was especially good and added a good dynamic to the ambience. Quality of food for buffet was also good. Liked the meat to braai section - good selection. Enjoyed the evening. Will definitely go again!

    Good day. The restaurant was nice, marimba band was amazing but I don’t know whose idea it was to have people wait in line only to take raw meat then wait to give it to a chef and watch and wait as he grills it for you? That idea was terrible. I took my wife there for Valentine’s Day but spent the evening waiting for food. You can’t expect people to wait in line 45 minutes for food, I saw someone throw their meat back and say they can’t do this anymore. I work in hospitality and can tell you for free no one is okay to wait that long for food. Im a very patient and understanding person but even I will never put myself through that I again. Please confirm if that’s the norm or if it was just a Valentine’s Day thing so we know to avoid it in future? Thank you.
