Enjoyed 5 course dinner at this classy restaurant . You have the option to be indoors or outdoor overlooking the garden. Top Chef Elwin prepared unforgettable chicken fry. A definitely night to remember.

Business dinner for 5 people and we were greeted by a very enthusiastic and charming waitron but not great from there on. Drinks orders were slow and delivery staggered even although it was a simple order of 1 beer, 2 malawi shandy's and 2 fruit juices. The waiter was keen for us to try different dishes and did a good job making suggestions and indicating any choice would be good. Eventually we went with red meat dishes and probably should have chosen chicken or Italian as suggested. We ordered 4 steaks, all with different sauces and to be prepared differently. The 5th choice was a ribs and calamari combination. My pepper steak was a 300 gr sirloin with pepper sauce. Steak was tough and pepper sauce had no flavour. I suspect it was straight out of a bottle. One colleague ordered medium rare and it was overcooked. The blue cheese and biltong sauce was runny and spiced up by hard avocado. Others also said their steaks were tough. Despite a comprehensive menu the dessert choice ended up as either fruit salad and ice cream or ice cream and chocolate sauce. Again it seemed like it was squeezed out of a tube. The venue seemed more like a middle eastern hookah bar with the majority of patrons drinking and sitting around smoking hubbly pipes.I didn't pay for dinner but it was about USD 130.00 before tip and even in expensive Zimbabwe cannot be considered good value for money.
It is a good place for events with a well spaced out seating place. Very good food available and reasonably stocked bar.
