Satori - Johannesburg

A fantastic Monday night supper for 4. We enjoyed the recommended favorites. We ate pasta, pizza, salad, ice-cream,  delicious !!!! The sangria was refreshing and fruity. Great vibe, incredible service from our waitress. Lloyd the owner makes you feel like family. Thank you for the experience. Looking forward to our next visit.

Dinner at Satori Linden, a rather strange awkward experience.... i specifically booked a week ago for the prawn special. The food was really good... the 1kg prawns were cooked to perfection mostly, some prawns were overcooked and clung to the shells for deaf life. The lemon butter sauce was fantastic with a hint of rosemary cant be faulted, even though lemon butter is not my favourite... the braised green pepper rice was tasteless in the main, rice not salted when cooked. I was on high alert waiting for the USA to invade my plate for the oil, the rice was far too oily. sadly the rice absorbed most of the lemon butter sauce, adding to the slush/ soupy feeling. the chips i ordered separately was perfection, beautiful hand cut and deep fried with the edges crisp, landed piping hot on the table which helped the freshly ground salt to latch on. My partners Portuguese rump steak was cooked consistently throughout with perfect rendering of the fat and topped with a golden Sunnyside up fried egg. Desert was a generous portion of peppermint tart which my partner enjoyed, I tasted it and didn't like it. Wine list was kinda ok... we settled for a botttle Spier Shiraaz Pity that our waitress was preoccupied and not attentive thus letting down the experience, never returned to our table after setting down the plates. Asked for more lemon butter sauce.. nothing delivered, had to seek her out to get water and extra serviettes. Spoke with after the meal when the bill was presented, she apologized. Tip paid. A decent meal but all in all rather strange space and experience... kinda awkward and contrived at most.. would I go back.. not sure

A newly found Italian gem for my partner and I. A lovely, homely feel and good cooking to boot! The owner is present and checking in with patrons, the staff are also cheerful and engaging. Live music is presented on Friday nights, which makes for a lovely addition to a wonderful meal. Overall, a lovely experience. I will certainly be back, especially for the Haloumi starter.

Beautiful decor and ambience. Enjoyed my girls lunch out with my daughters. Staff is warm and friendly. We enjoyed the chicken lasgne and the Alfredo. Tiramisu unfortunately didnt stand up to expectation.

Great family owned restaurant,, prawns are spectacular
