Tapas Beach Restaurant

Reviewed By MJZAJ

The location is great and the sand under your feet keeps you in a relaxed holiday mood. The helpings are if a good size but more imagination should be used in how it is presented/served. The platters seems to be piled high which is a bit off putting to be honest. The food was good though and the fried calamari remains a hit.

Friendly, chatty service - Relatively quick to deliver the order and very good food. We have used this establishment to provide food for a party of people at the bowls club in Jeffreys Bay and it was delivered on time and still reasonably hot. Like it!

Like this restaurant for a quick and economic evening 'fish'n chips' - love the OB version. But why so little bread these days? One tiny slice for each person with a pack of butter that is too much for such a small slice. (the bread/butter ratio actually suites me - I like a little bread with my butter!!). When I complained I was given a second slice. Friendly service.

Marina Wharf

We have a good selection of wine to watch the sun go down over the water. Marina Wharf is the perfect venue for weddings, birthday parties or just to relax with a good meal...

What an awesome weekend. My partner celebrated her birthday and we decided to book at Marina Wharf, we were unsure about the weather and requested to be seated outside should the weather allow it alternatively inside since we had my partner's elderly parents with us. As we arrived a cold wind was blowing in from the sea and we were still given an option to be seated either outside or inside irrespective the fact that the restaurant was quite busy! I have to thank the management for this as they were prepared considering our request. Since there was rugby on we made it even more difficult for them by seating us opposite the only television available. Thank you! The food was also out of this world with the most awesome wine menu to compliment our food. The day was ended with a surprise boat cruise around the estate! I can highly recommend Marina Wharf.

This restaurant does not impress when you enter. It is a fairly basic-looking property but looks can be very deceiving. The ambiance once inside is pleasant and warm. The seafood is brilliant and more than compensates for any other defects.The service is always good and friendly.We will always go back for more.Ample parking avaailable.

Do not miss going to this restaurant.Greeted by the fabulous welcoming Maria. Thank you Maria, you made us feel at home.As for the prawns plus the sauce. Do try them, plus the calamari. You will have never tasted anything like either of these dishes. Sauce Devine.Great music, cute decorated tables, and wine, wine and more wine bulging out of fridges and shelves. Also great pizza, which was too much for me, so it was boxed up and we gave it to the young boy looking after our car in the car park. Do that too.Only downside.. staff very slow.Thank you for the great 5 star review!We appreciate it - I will pass your review onto the manager and owner, to ensure we deliver you the best service possible!Hope to see you again soon!

Reviewed By Barrie T

Always liked this restaurant but It's a couple of years since we last dined here. We heard the restaurant had changed and we decided to have dinner with friends. Loved the new look but the 'rickety-looking' entrance staircase was very familiar. The menu looked welcomingly familiar - ribs were the special for the day and we all ordered them. Service was pleasant and efficient. Not sure that the number of ribs added up to the advertised 450 gm, but they were attractively served with three small racks. I really enjoyed the first two racks and all that went with it, but my third rack was terrible. Very overdone with little meat. What meat there was I eventually spat our because I simply couldn't get it down me. Everyone else had a good meal. I let my plate be taken away with a complaint and the waitress quickly returned and asked if I would like a replacement rack - In retrospect I think I should have accepted this and added it to my wife's take-away pack, but I said "No thanks - we have all finished eating". When the bill came I commented that I thought some allowance should have been made for the unsatisfactory ribs - the answer was "Well we offered you a replacement; what do you want?" - my reply was to suggest a voucher for a free glass of house wine with my next meal. (I though this very fair as I would have to return to use the voucher.) This was refused by the manager who hardly looked up from the table where he was eating. The waitress was clearly embarrassed as we left. I don't feel the waitress should have to act as a go-between a dissatisfied customer and management and the incident spoiled an otherwise pleasant evening.Thank you for sharing your concern and opinion, we again apologise that this was your experience. In all fairness though it sounds that we may have been judged before you entered as in your opinion some of our efforts to upgrade since your last visit were still rickety, and not possibly still a working progress, as you seem to have liked all else that have changed, yet still felt familiar.As you have mentioned you ordered the already marked down "special" meal of the day at a mere R99 per person that includes a free glass of wine, hence we only offered to replace what you were not content with as we feel this to be fair approach in an already discounted meal.The waitress checked with me as she should in any such instance and as manager in the corner and owner I recommended this is how we address it, my apologies for not meeting with your personal expectations in further addressing the matter after you kindly declined what was offered and then not making a further fuss as you left, as in our opinion you apologise and then not spoil the rest of your time by making a fuss.Also my apologies for not interrupting my dinner as you left, I however recall saying thank you and goodbye.The waitress acted as instructed, apologized and you kindly declined, does this justify a poor rating and discrediting our hard work, reputation and overall rating on this platform I'm left to ask.Thanking you again for sharing your opinion and concern. Please feel free to contact us directly should you wish to further discuss this.Kind regards.Owner and Management.

Reviewed By RossS981

We went to the restaurant on the strength of the TripAdvisor reviews. It was pretty full but the service was still good. We went expecting to have fish and chips but on the menu the hake was served with fancy mash, which did not appeal to my good lady.There was a chefs special of pork fillet which appealed to me even though there is always a risk of it being rather dry.I thought that the chefs might be able to dish up a juicy pork fillet. No such luck.Fortunately the dish had a very tasty sauce with mashed potato which were able to disguise the dryness of the pork. I will remember to avoid pork fillets in the future. Those at the other tables appeared to be enjoying their meals so I blame myself for the choice I made.Thank you Ross, unfortunately we cant please everyone, thankfully we please most of our clientele. We serve the fresh hake with mashed potato and fresh vegetables, but if you prefer to have fries, maybe you should simply have asked.The pork is one of our top selling dishes, pitty you did not enjoy it. Next time, maybe speak to us while you are in the restaurant and we will happily oblige.
