My family visited the restaurant on Saturday 24th March. The service was pathetic, the food was disgusting, burned and raw and the glasses and cutlery were dirty. I will never go back again and I will certainly never recommend anyone to the restaurant.

This is a return visit to this establishment. The Portuguese pork ribs are really good. My partner had prime rib, which was done medium to rare - enjoyable. Charity was our waitress - she was excellent. Good wine selection by the glass. Worth a visit.

My girlfriend and I went for supper to Smith and Wollensky on 27 December 2011, it was one of the worst dining experiences I ever had. We saw on the chef’s specials three capaccios - we wanted to order that, just to find out there was no springbok. We asked what juices they had, sorry we have no juice was the reply. We settled for grapetisers. The waitress brought it to the table laughing, I asked her what was so funny she said I forgot your straws, I sad it was fine. She placed the two bottles on the table and left, she didn’t open or pour the drinks.

We asked to see the manager, and after a long time someone looking like the chef came out - we told him about the juice and the carpaccio and the waitress. His excuse was it is the third holliday in a row - the suppliers did not deliver. You don’t need a supplier to bring you juice you can buy that from the Pic n Pay in the same shopping centre.

The waitress had an attitude for the rest of the evening making it clear she was not happy with us. Then came the starter - the Halloumi - it was oily and chewy. The other starter was some cheese in a pastry - was good.

The mains looked like something from a street café, the side salad or garnish was a small pile of raw chopped tomatoes and onions like what you will use to make a sauce with. The chicken breast salad consisted of two dry crumbed breasts on roughly chopped spinach with exactly two small blocks of feta cheese. The steak was fine but looked terrible on the plate with the raw shaka laka mix as garnish.

We dine out at least twice a week so we have a good idea of what you should expect and what not. One thing is certain, we will never go to Smith and Wollensky in Eastgate again, and we will most certainly not recommend them to anybody.
