Excellent food, great service and a friendly atmosphere

Lovely food, staff and atmosphere. Once again an excellent meal

A gem of a place. Visited Thursday evening and had the sharing platter & bottle of wine special deal. The food was outstanding and all of the staff are so friendly and attentive. Been a few times and always been impressed. Lovely place, gorgeous food, reasonable pricing and would recommend to everyone

Lovely food to celebrate my daughters birthday. We all enjoyed what we had. Service friendly and efficient. Only minor issue is lights are a little too bright at the back of the restaurant. It would have been nice for the staff to wish her happy birthday. Our second visit and we will be back.!

The food was such good quality and the service was amazing. Great value for money and a lovely place to be.

Fantastic meal all round. Cannot wait to return, next month November 2nd already looking forward to it. Lovely friendly staff. Always return each month for pre concert menu ,then off to the Halle. Many thanks to all the staff for making my brother & I so welcome.

Fantastic food. Great service and a pleasant atmosphere

As a south African in the UK I was excited to try out Chakalaka. Amazing food and drinks. Felt right at home!

Felt like we were being rushed in and out, even though there were only 2 more tables full. Food not that good. Second time feeling uncomfortable with waiter. Disappointed.

Gorgeous food. Staff are very attentive and polite, nothing is too much trouble.

Our favourite place to eat. It’s a unique little restaurant. We love the ambiance and the friendliness of the people who work there. The food is always delicious and original. The stew of the day changes each week as do the specials and the pizzas are always great. Something for everyone!

Group of 3 for lunch, disappointed with the food average at best. Ordered lemon cheese cake it was tiny possibly a frozen one? Service slow would not like to visit on a busy day!

Thank you all for a lovely meal and looking after us for the evening

Went on Saturday 7th October with my friends had a fabulous time food was delishious and drinks plentiful.... the staff were very helpful and accommodating brilliant service . Will definitely ne visiting again .

what a great place. great outdoor seating area with secure play area for kids. food also served to you ouside if required. inside was lovely to, had a cozy feel to it. booked a table online which was easy for 2pm sun 8th oct for 7 people but needed to add 2 more seats at the last minute so rang and spoke to a woman who was very accomadating and managed to sort it out . food was excellent and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it . this is 1 place i will be definitely be calling back to .

Been here many times and always enjoyed the food and service. Tonight, though was one of the worst experiences both my partner and I have had. The food was terrible. They seemed very short staffed, and no one was checking what was coming out of the kitchen. The chicken wings in BBQ sauce was the warning that worst was to come. The sauce was bland with little taste, more like a weak gravy. Then the chicken risotto, over cooked and tasted burnt but yet cold, far too much salt and garlic, no parmesan cheese or black pepper offered. The spinach and cheese ravioli was more like a soup, watery and foul tasting, far too much salt and garlic and again, no parmesan cheese or black pepper offered. We couldn't eat the main courses. Complained to the waiter who informed us that no manager was in tonight, which I suppose may explain why food wasn't being checked properly before it left the kitchen. We paid for our overpriced wine and left. Maybe it was just a bad night, but we won't be going back again.
