Fantastic experience, and a great way to try a number of different South African dishes. Entertainment was interactive and fun, and the drumming added an extra dimension to the night. Would definitely recommend this as a MUST-DO experience to anyone travelling to Cape Town.

Not for me

Christine_C, Mar 2024

Learning the drums was fun but the food wasn’t that good and the wine was overpriced - the show was pretty good

An evening in Capetown not to be missed

WOW, what an experience!!!!! My driver arrived early at my hotel but explained I did not have up rush as collection time had not arrived yet. He was very professional and the car was the most luxurious car I drove in The entire time I visited Cape Town. It really felt like an experience on its own. As far as the restaurant, I thoroughly enjoyed every second of my experience. From the moment I walked in and was surprisingly greeted by the entire staff, they walked me to my table was had great views of the stage, to the interactive drumming experience with the staff and other guests, to the absolutely delicious food!!!! The service here was top tier, every person seemed to truly love what they do. The performers had high energy the entire time, the servers were attentive and explained every dish we were sampling!
