Fine Dining at its Finest at Saskia Polokwane. We celebrated our 25th Anniversary at Saskia on 09 December 2020. We were warlmy Welcomed by Wilson the Security and COVID-19 Compliance Officer doing the Screening and Sanitising before entering. Olga the Hostess gave us a warm welcome and made sure that Saskia attended to all the small details such as candlelight, decor, introducing our waiter Margaret. She orchestrated and coordinated all servings making sure that the romatic atmosphere was created and that we as a couple was at ease and promptly served. Mussa who was in charge of Saskia's Food and Beverage engaged with us regularly to check if we were served and looked after. Samuel Saskia's Operations Officer was exceptionally well mannered, professional in his approach making us feel very welcome and took the time to take us through Fusion Boutique Hotel and some of its finest accommodation available to South Africans and Internationals. Our evening was made even more special whereby Chef Papa visited our Table 204 to introduce himself and to take a picture with the Staff and Us before our departure. Samuel also introduced their own Red Wine Brand called Saskia Restaurant 'Guess What' Red Wine, which the two of us will open on our 26th Anniversary - God Willing. The Saskia's staff was very professional and they created an unforgettable, thought provoking and romantic evening. We are truly impressed and we enjoyed every moment.
On behalf of myself and my wife, we want to extend our sincere appreciation for the professional and courtesy extended to us on our 25th Anniversary. It will be one that we will always remember. Thank you for creating and awesome memory, one that will not be forgotten.
We strongly recommend Saskia Restaurant as a must for all special events, romantic dining, individual dining and/or just going for the experience of Fine Dining and Wining.
