A really lovely dining experience and really worth the cash you pay. I had the 4-Course set menu and was shockingly surprised by how affordable it was (R395), especially because the portions are good. I would recommend coming here during the day because the position of the restaurant gives you a really great view, but it’s also amazing for a lovely date night or big-group dinner. Impeccable service and lovely food. I highly recommend this restaurant.
After many phone calls to the restaurant to plan a 60th birthday lunch for my husband – including 3 vegan meals, on the balcony with a view – all of which was confirmed on email to me. We arrived to be seated at the back of a marquee with no views and no vegan meals. The food we did have was disgusting. I emailed the restaurant but no response. I eventually phoned only to get a sorry but we’ve been busy. This is not acceptable. My husbands 60th was ruined. We had ubered to the restaurant from Constantia Glen. There was no option at 2pm on his actual birthday to make other plans. They obviously don’t care as they know I am not a local but really this is shocking service.
A great spot for Sunday breakfast – however, some extra attention to detail would go a long way. Staff generally very attentive and well trained, menu sufficient but food could be better! Also, there needs to be parking spaces reserved for differently-abled /elderly people that are close to the venue.
This was our first visit to the Lawns at the Roundhouse and it’s unlikely we will return. The food was quite expensive and at best mediocre. My companion had the Nachos Chicken Burger which was acceptable. I had the Pizza Bianco which was very dry with very little fig and gorgonzola. I felt it was overpriced. Another in our party asked for fish and chips but was brought salad instead of chips. When he asked for chips instead of salad he was told to leave the salad on the side and was provided with a side portion of chips. Poor show.Shadrack our waiter was great as we were a big party and somehow he kept track of our orders. However even though we were a big party (17 pax) we were only allocated 2 tables and had to ask several times for another table to be brought.The main bugbear was the lack of hygiene. The waiters’ trays were filthy, and I found a number of cigarette butts between the table slats – I think even a smoker would be grossed out. The bins in the toilets were overflowing. At these prices I’m sure they could afford to employ a cleaner to regularly service the toilets and cleaning solution to keep trays hygienic.
