Butcher Block

Had great food especially if you have the steak unfortunately I don't eat beef so friends tried it and said it was perfectly cooked they way they wanted it. I had a Chicken dish and the chicken was moist. Waiters were fast aswell.

One of my favorite restaurants to visit. The lamb shank on a bed of mash with gravy is a must try for first time visitors. The chicken schnitzel is the most tender piece of crumbed chicken fillet I've ever tasted, paired with a creamy mushroom sauce and a fresh side salad for the carb conscious foodie.

Today I was given the opportunity to review Butcher Block in Hillcrest. This was my first restaurant that I have been asked to do so. Being a qualified chef, it’s always hard to be impressed by restaurants asYou know what’s quality when you taste it. As I walked in I was greeted by the manager and my soon to be waiter, who’s name was Kevin. Since the restaurant just opened half an hour ago, I had my choice of where to sit. I always stray to those comfy couches. I was handed the menu and given a couple minutes to scan through. My waiter came back and asked If I’m ready to order a beverage. But when I asked for a non alcoholic drinks menu, they had none. Which was disappointing, as I had to ask the waiter to list everything that was non alcoholic. I decided to order a Bar One Milkshake, which was really tasteless and a bit over priced for a below average milkshake. My food choices were the Marrow Bones, Calamari and Chorizo for the starters. The Shisa Nyama Board and BBC from the Butchers Choice Selection for mains. The food arrived promptly and everything was hot. I got to taste a bit of everything and all I can say is, the food was phenomenal. From the starters to the mains everything was seasoned well and had great taste and flavour. The Steak was cooked as per my request of Medium Rare. The waiter came half way through to check up and see if everything was good, which shows he was really attentive. The overall experience was exceptional with good service and great food. I definitely will be back soon and recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for quality in dining

My medium fillet was perfection. The flavor on the butternut that accompanies the steak is sublime along with perfectly crisp fries that are fluffy inside. One of my top 5 meals! Need to try out the Florida Road branch soon..

Lafika S Ntanta . Dinner was great. All the meat was cooked to our respective temperatures and well basted. Not an unhappy face in sight. Would come back again.
