I booked a table for two for a special occasion, but when we got to the restaurant we were asked if we know that we are sitting outside. It was super windy and of course we weren't told. We were then seated at a table that was set for a large group reservation, in the corner, next to the plants... . All in all the venue is very intimate, but stylish. The "waiter" pulled the menus out of his back pocket and they really looked like they had been all over. I have no idea if the waiter was actually a waiter- he wore jeans and sneakers and a huge jacket...it could have been the bouncer. We were served our starters in the corner and only seated at a proper table- next to the bar- about 30 minutes later when the group for the reservation was seated at the table too- how embarrassing. The food was good, but definitely not extraordinary. For a restaurant with a R700 platter on their menu this was a very poor, disappointing experience.

Buffet was amazing. Waiters are helpful however could be abit better. Amazing views from the deck
Great fine dining halaal option in the middle of CT CBD. It's pretty busy so making a booking is advisable. Good range of meals from steaks, fish and gourmet burgers.
Halaal fine dining...friendly staff...Good food...reasonable prices
I don't often take the time to write these things, but I don't often get blown away by food quality at a restaurant. Long story short, I had the dinner buffet for R150 and was treated to a comprehensive selection of meat, sausages, finger snacks, cocktail burgers, curries, breads and desserts. I hate buying ribs at a restaurant because they are always fatty and cold. Jiah's ribs were the best I have tasted in a restaurant in at least 10 years. I would go back just for the ribs in future. The cocktail burgers were lean and tasty. The curries were average to above average, with the butter chicken being quite rich and sweet which I personally enjoy. The grilled fish was possibly the best piece of fish I have ever eaten, and I do not give that title easily. It must have been caught on that day. Desserts were all rather average, with the malva pudding standing out above the rest. The brownie was excellent, but spoiled by cheap imitation cream. Overall, I was blown away by what I got for R150. Service was slow at times when we wanted more drinks, but overall a great evening. Highly, highly recommended. Especially to people who are sick of paying exorbitant prices for below average Halaal meals.
Recently celebrated a 40th bday party. Beautiful scenery from top floor. We where quite a few and needed to squeeze in but management and staff did their best to accommodate us instead of spoiling the night with some excuse that we are to Much. Food was served buffet style and everything I ate was awesome. Would go back here. Only complaint I have is the toilets weren't very clean and for me that causes the 5th star to fall. Otherwise a good night out
Had the buffet on the top floor. Food tastiness was good, fish was excellent, ribs great! Sitting area was a bit cramped, lots of bumping into others. Service by our waiter and another was absolutely horrible. Drinks order was only taken half way into our first plate of food. Into our next courses, the tables were not cleared by the waiter, and we had long breaks between courses. I asked a second waiter to clear the table and was told to wait for our waiter. By the time we settled the bill, we still had dirty dishes from the first course on our table! Our asked me it his 10% bill included tip with R160 was all. I thought there should have been a better variety of starters and dessert.
