3 weeks agoBest steak in South Africa! I had the fillet steak and it was absolutely perfect - cooked to perfection and full of flavor. Amazing service as well; the waiter made us feel completely at home. A must-visit.

5 months agoI recently had the pleasure of dining at Joplin’s Restaurant on the Garden Route in Wilderness, South Africa, and I must say it was an exceptional steak experience. As someone who considers themselves a difficult customer and usually only eats steak at The Fat Butcher in Stellenbosch, I was genuinely impressed. The steak was cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor, and rivaled the quality of top-tier establishments. The service was attentive and professional, and the ambiance of the restaurant made the meal even more enjoyable. Joplin’s is a true gem for steak lovers, and I highly recommend it for anyone seeking an outstanding dining experience.

a week agoFirst off I would like to say the food was amazing, our waiter was interactive and the service was good. So given those parameters one would think our evening was enjoyable. Unfortunately not so... our booking was for 5.45, and they were fully booked. So the result was that they rushed us throughout the meal, it was like eat your meal and get out of here so that we can fill more tables. What could have been a lovely relaxing enjoyable holiday time family meal ended up by feeling like "gosh we're done"
