Restaurant - Bistro Sixteen82, Steenberg Tokai

This is a beautiful venue; I love the chandelier that they have hanging at the entrance area - it is made of red and green glass and represents grape segments. Their Black Swan and bubbles are two of my favourite wines.

Sadly the recent lunch did not cut the mustard.

FOOD - I understand that food prices have gone up, and am OK with paying slightly higher prices for outstanding food. When prices are outrageous for tiny portions which are not cooked particularly well, I get irked. I was with guests, so I could not and did not want to complain in front of them. We ordered their pork fillet dish, which sounded amazing on the menu, but when we received it, was sub standard, especially at R168.00 per portion. Very disappointing to receive three small pieces of  meat with no moisture in site. Dessert, was fairly redeeming, very tasty but also pricey at R64 per pop.

DRINKS - this was a healthy portion - my colleagues opted for the white wine, and I had their bubbles.

SERVICE - super slow, especially when we wanted to order dessert the waitress was no where to be seen.

AMBIANCE - lovely to sit outside.

VALUE FOR MONEY - way too expensive for what you get.

PARKING - ample

RECOMMENDABLE -  sadly not - don't go for a meal, rather go for a relaxing glass of wine or bubbles.
