Overall I had a good experience. Dorothy, our server, was excellent, friendly, patient and polite. The other staff members including Kaugelo were also pleasant. The place has a lovely atmosphere, a beautiful view of the neighbourhood, good music, and the volume is just perfect. There's indoor and outdoor seating. The restrooms are clean. It's great whether you just want to eat or even if you want to work. There's electric outlets available.
Now about the food: The burgers were truly amazing - tasty, filling, and fresh. The potatoes chips taste so good too. The beef patties are perfect. Probably some of the best burgers out there.
The banana bread, however, was such a disappointment. I would not recommend that you order it. It was stale, barely tasted any banana in it, and absolutely not worth the price.

I told the waiter about my experience, his response was "please speak to the manager" and the manager did not really seem to care about it.
Abstain if you care about your health!...

Food was great. Drinks was lekker. Staff was wonderful.
Cliff, the store manage, was super friendly and gave some insight into why the food was so delicious and our experience was better than other bootlegger chains. Something to do with it being Halaal. I couldn't help but agree.
They weren't busy at all for a Friday afternoon, so we didn't wait long for our order. It was a bit out of the way but well worth the...
