    Food was absolutely superb, but it was our first time trying South Africa food and we will certainly be returning. The staff were excellent very attentive and the service was quick and efficient. Drinks were very tasty and we even sample for the gorgeous puddings fast desserts and we were not disappointed. Everything that’s like this point is a £30 deposit per person that you have to pay in advanced to reserve a table, I can understand this as it’s a relatively small restaurant but it is a little bit of putting when you first book it although it was no issues when it came to the bill as automatically deducted from the final bill. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. It was absolutely superb and a bit of hidden gem within Cornwall.

    Great atmosphere didn't feel rushed but it was efficient to delicious food (different to other Falmouth restaurants) and knowledgeable, friendly service. Been about 4 times before and will definitely go back.

    This restaurant never disappoints! Food, service, ambience is always excellent! We took some friends who were visiting there last night ( 5th February’25) because we know we will always get the best food and service of any of our local restaurants. Just a top place to go.
