THE GRILLHOUSE

BEST FOR An incredible range of meaty eats. FOOD It’s meat all the way at this popular restaurant. Starter options include a butternut soup, grilled calamari, chicken livers and mussels. For mains, a variety of cuts are grilled and come either basted or spiced. There’s also beef kebabs, lamb saddle cutlets, beef ribs, ostrich medallions and venison. There are plenty of sauces: peri-peri, pepper, mushroom, monkeygland, cheese and mustard. Choose from sides like pap and chakalaka, creamed spinach and seasonal veggies. The fresh garden salad lives up to its name, while the rump goes down well with a glass of shiraz. End on a sweet note with the hot chocolate brownie. DRINKS You name it, they have it: from wines and beers to cold drinks and warm beverages. SERVICE Excellent. Staff put their best foot forward at all times. AMBIENCE Although formal, it’s accessible, relaxed and family friendly. (XP)
