Le Petit Sel

A great little gem in Rivonia, located at The Faircity Falstaff Hotel, and this split level bistro dining restaurant offers breakfast, lunch and dinner overlooking the pool, and is great for guests and visitors alike.<br/ <br/ I spent the night at the hotel recently and had a wonderful buffet breakfast awaited the next morning. Freshly squeezed juice 'cocktails ' fresh fruits and yogurts, as well as tasty home made muesli. Fresh pastries and a beaming smile from behind the made to order counter made my morning, and the wide selection of cheeses and cold meat was fantastic.<br/ <br/ They were closed the evening prior for dinner, but I did sneak a peek at their menu and it does look wonderful, sandwiches and pregos as well as more fancy fare such as fish and steaks. The service was really good too thumbs up!<br/ <br/ This would make the perfect spot for business breakfasts and lunches, birthday parties or relaxed, easy Sunday family get togethers.

Good quality food at a fair price.....would definitely go again. The steaks are good and portion sizes are generous. Wine list is good and not overpriced

Le Petit Sel Bistro, (tucked away in The Falstaff on Rivonia Road) after last night, is my new favourite hidden gem from Coco Reinarhz, Chef and Patron of Le Petit Sel.<br/ <br/ This contemporary bistro in the heart of Sandton, has some of the most incredibly generous portions and delicious menu offerings that I have ever seen! It is just so comprehensive and rather than limiting me during restaurant week to one or two, Alert our waitress just told me select anything off their menu that I would prefer..<br/ Onto the food that we ordered to share last night:<br/ Starters <br/ Roulade de truite saumonée fumée sur un rösti à la coriandre et sa crème au citron (smoked salmon)  <br/ Their SIGNATURE Croustillant de tomate et mozzarella servi avec vinaigre balsamique et huile d’olive (crunchy tomato and mozzarella) which for me was THE dish of the evening! Simple and yet just perfect! <br/ Mains <br/ Aloyau grillé, sauce au poivre vert et ses oignons frits (grilled sirloin) <br/ Côte de Porc épaisse grillée et sauce à la moutarde de Dijon<br/ (thick flame grilled pork chops)<br/ Desserts Crêpe Suzette <br/ their melt in your mouth Fondant au chocolat!<br/ <br/ I am a huge Chef Coco Reinarhz fan and I love how he manages to combine both his classical French training and the African flavours that we have all come to love. <br/ <br/ I enjoyed an incredibly intimate date night dinner overlooking their candlelit pool and being served by Alert and Joshua, who went over and above my requirements.. <br/ <br/ *Recommendation: I still can not comprehend how generous the portions are, and for fine dining meals like this the value for money is phenomenal! This is going to be a staple for romantic date nights for me going forward!

Amazing food. Me and my lady friend sat by the couches and had our meal there. The ambience and music was lovely too. Its a nice hide-away restaurant.
