Went for a family dinner for my wife's birthday. What an absolutely terrible experience, with shockingly bad management. I have only one suggestion - AVOID. Possibly the worst experience Iâve had at a restaurant in a long long time. When we joined the table it took about 8 minutes to bring menus. When the couple joined us at the table shortly after they asked for menus and were told âthere arenât enough we waiting for some more from outside. This on Monday night with around 5 tables in the restaurant at most. For the first hour and a half, we spent inside the âfine diningâ Italian restaurant, there was Rock music playing. Kings of Leon, blink 182, perfect for a fine dining restaurant right? I think not. When ordering, the âmanager informed us that 3/4 of the items we wanted were not in stock, he then suggested we make a substitution and have the duck breast with stir fry veg. (Not a good suggestion). This turned out to be a terrible recommendation. My son ordered a tuna pizza, only to be told by the manager âwe donât have tunaâ... after hearing they have no tuna. I suggested I run to the Spar downstairs and buy them a tin of tuna quickly. The manager then realized how ridiculous it was to say there is no tuna, he then managed to make a plan to arrange some. The pizza arrived with cold Buffalo cheese. Had to be re-made. Was a soggy disaster. My other son ordered a penne pasta with âwild, wood fire chicken and a peri cream sauce â the sauce had no flavor, the chicken was bland and was simply dumped on the top of the pasta. He sent the pasta back after eating 3 bites, and had since lost his appetite. The most amazing part was when we received the bill and a 10% service fee was added when it was definitely not deserved, THEN to find the pasta which was sent back was STILL on the bill. We paid the full amount none the less. While walking to the door I asked the owner/manager/chef or whoever Claudio may be whether or not they always charge for food sent back uneaten. He begins to explain to us that our table is just fussy, and were looking to get a free meal? He then explained that heâs been there for 12 years and that itâs impossible that the food wasnât up to standard. To play it safe, we did not order dessert. A very disappointing way to spend a special night out....... Will NEVER go back.Good afternoon Sir Thanks for the review really appreciate, we don't understand the meaning but it's okayRegards

We visited Forti on a Wednesday evening and was quite surprised at how busy it was! We enjoyed excellently prepared dishes and very professional service.All that keeps me from giving the restaurant a higher rating is the lack of ambiance. We sat at a table for two, which was too big and too close to the table right next to it, to have any type of serious conversation. It was also placed directly against a mirror with a light as bright as a hospital's directly shining on the table. It really spoiled the experience somewhat. (Maybe I am comparing the experience with Ritrovo, which was a firm favourite, and it is just not the same)Hi. Thank you for your lovely review. Unfortunately we as a green building use only LED lighting and they do not dim very well. The dim look also is very convenient at hiding dirt. We love our restaurant bright to show off our cleanliness and our beautiful art. I promise you you will get used to it. If it still bothers I will simply take out the light above your table. The Forti dimmer method. With love.

Although this is not a cheap venue, one is never disappointed with the atmosphere, service and food produced in this restaurant. This is an example of where the old marketing phrase of âlocation, location, locationâ defies the rules. Besides the slightly off the main route, it is not inconveniently too far off. The history proves this time and again from my first visit that i recall in the early 90âs, or even before then. But do be warned you do need to book most nights of the week, because the reputation has a legacy.

This restaurant was superb, both for food and professional service. The menu provided variety for out party of 4 adults (1 vegetarian) and 2 teenagers. Two of us ordered the evening special, one chicken dish and the other a ribeye on the bone. There was also a very nice wine selection and a very nice dessert menu. 5 stars to the chef and the staff for a very memorable first visit! Parking is validated which is a nice advantage too!

This delightful spot is in Mooiplaats, Pretoria, so it does feel like a bit of an escape from city life. Complete with a bit of dirt road to travel on. Us city dwellers need that now and again! The warm and welcoming ambience immediately transported us back to our time spent in the Cape Winelands a week or so ago. Bliss!We arrived just as the doors opened, and I realized soon afterwards that we were probably very lucky to get a table without a reservation, so that is something to remember next time. The wine list is concise, but really impressive and we immediately recognized some personal favourites. The @oakvalleywines Fountain of Youth #sauvignonblanc was the perfect accompaniment to our meal.You can expect country-style comfort food that is absolutely delicious and prepared and presented beautifully. I opted for the wild mushroom risotto and believe me, it was divine! Served with asparagus and chickpea fritters, this was such a tasty and hearty dish. It was a good-sized portion (in my words = large) and I finished all of it! Every last bite.My hubby had the Italia pizza (with added anchovies) and it truely was a feast for the eyes. I didn't taste it, but he thoroughly enjoyed it. Maybe next time!I only realized recently that the legendary Chef Pellie Grobler is at the helm of this restaurant. The quality of the meals speak volumes! Continuing his mission to change Pretoria one meal at a time. Great job!We will definitely be back - I saw quite a few dishes on the menu that I will be dreaming about until then! Oh yes, and that wild mushroom risotto.
