Find out what Seafood restaurants to try in Salt Rock. Salt Rock is a small town just north of Ballito and Shaka's Rock on the Dolphin Coast of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It is a favorite holiday destination for many local South Africans. It is about 40 minutes north of Durban. There are plenty of fishing spots along the coast from Salt Rock, through Shaka's Rock to Ballito and Salmon Bay.

A new development, Sheffield Manor, is situated in Salt Rock as well as the newly built Tiffany's Shopping Mall.

The only thing that saves this place from doom is its location. The slow service is so off putting. The menu is not bad. Has become a bit too expensive for what is on offer.

We went back about 2 days later and sat on the open terrace again.Hi Sharkssupporter1,Thank you for reviewing Ocean Basket Ballito.

We popped in for a late lunch and was advised that that the kitchen closes @ 15:00. Ordered some beers and pizzas. The food arrived and was tasty. I ordered the lamb pizza but got the pulled pork pizza and the waitress blamed the chef, but alas, it wasnât bad.

Reviewed By Eula B
We have always been meaning to go to Beira Alta, but never went....finding good Portuguese food mostly is pretty disappointing.We had a warm welcome, with attentive staff, in a restaurant with a nice family vibe. The Menu was tempting and it seems they run regular specials. We wanted authentic Portuguese chicken, and were not disappointed. The sides were fresh and homemade with marinades that had you wiping the plates with the freshly baked bread.We definately will go and try some more items, and actually look forward to experiencing some more Beira Alta hospitality.

We went to Fiamma grill for an early dinner on Sunday with my family and we had an almost perfect evening the waiter was the best until something happened which left us bitterly disappointed there was a gentleman who was wearing a black jacket shouting at the staff about something with little regard that we were there. The staff looked very scared of him. He is arrogant,bossy and lack of leaderships qualities for a family Friendly rastoraunt like Fiamma grill. On consultation we were told that he is one of the managers. We quickly paid our bill and left.Dear CarolThank you for your patronage and time taken in reviewing our store. I have discussed in detail your review with my team and management about your recent situation, which I am humbly apologetic about.We have to be careful when responding to reviews of this nature due to the seriousness of the situation. We are a family business and lead with a motivational managment style, we are a team and work together on achieving success. You and I both know that at times, raising ones voice and seeking justifiable answers is necessary, thus I am sorry that you had to be in the presence of that experience. Aryn, the manager on duty understands his actions and is working very hard on maintaining control and humility in his approach. This being said, we would appeal to you to reconsider about the nature and star rating of our store as it truly negatively impacts our business in a large way. Thus even the servers and kitchen staff feel the ramifications of a 1 star review, as we are a small town with a lot of competition. I hope you can find it in your heart to understand and accept our apologies, as we all need a chance in life.Fabien Durocher-Yvon Owner - Fiamma Grill

Had a great evening at the restaurant, Freddy & his staff were on point and made sure we had an enjoyable evening. We were the last patrons to leave on the eveing. Had the jalapeno poppers as starters and the 1kg giant prawns as a main. Wow! Loved the prawns, we ordered them medium so had that slight kick but could also taste the lemon butter coming through the devine sauce.Drinks- 4starsFood - 5 stars Service- 4 starsKeep up the great work, will definitely visit the establishment when we visit Ballito again.Hi Zubz1515,What a lovely review! Thank you so much for taking the time to provide us with this feedback, something I will be sure to pass onto the managers and kitchen staff as they will be so thrilled to hear!
