    Benji our waiter and his team was wonderful, attentive and very responsive. We definitely coming back for the paddle ride. We all enjoyed the day. Just one recommendation maybe for the upcoming summer months to add a mister for the tables under the tent. Just as a cooling agent

    We enjoyed everything at The Fat Olive and had a great experience overall. Got fun and laughter all the way with Simpiwe's amazing personality. Definitely recommend The Fat Olive to all.

    My side dish (mash) was cold and lumpy. Pie was too salty and peppery. Fish was over priced (for hake). Dessert was disappointing.

    Thank you for making my husband 60th birthday a memorable one, though I was told that the staff will come sing for him but never happened. Everything was beyond my expectation, thank you so much. Again I was expecting the big olive on my green salad, there was not even a single olive on the salad. Please try to make your signage in the entrance visible, I saw many cars passing and making u-turns which we also pass the entrance. But overall everything was perfect . A shout of praise to Thobile, she`s just a child who has lot of respect and loves what she is doing. Thobile all the credits to you doll.
