Tokara Restaurant

This place is absolutely amazing, situated right in the middle of beautiful vineyards and mountains. The art from the outside to the inside was incredible.
To the warm welcome by the staff there, asked to be seated accordingly depending on the weather as we thought it would rain and now that the sun was out, we sat outside to enjoy our meal with beautiful views. The braised steak I had was to die for, well prepared, big ups to the chef. I had a wonderful time there. It is quiet and a bit isolated so if you’re looking for some quality intimate and relaxed scenery I’d highly recommend this place. Thank you Tokara.

We had the wine pairing and 6 course dinner menu. Every course was delicious and beautifully plated and well explained by our server. One of the most beautiful winery I have experienced and the staff are very friendly. They have very good art display.

Great experience at Tokara. Lovely venue, great views. They have some beautiful wines, the director's red and white is excellent. The menu is extensive, they have a lof of vegan and gluten-free options, which is something you dont see on a lot of menus and in restaurants in South Africa. The food was delicious! I will go back.

As you enter Tokara estate one gets the feeling of opulence and class.

The estate is perched overlooking stellenbosch. What an exquisite view. The tasting room is beautiful and all the finishes in the building are top class. A really nice experience in the middle of the week.

Sadly, the wine was average in comparison to what’s on offer in the surrounding area.

There is artwork throughout the estate!

I brought my family for a "Fine Dining" experience. We do this quite often and have frequented many other similar restaurants. We have definitely been impressed by it's stunning location and views. Sadly, the actual dining experience in terms of the "wow factor" was lacking. The very, very limited menu option, coupled with the highly overpriced options did not sit well with me. I ordered the Roasted Bonsmara beef, and was left gobsmacked when my portion only had 2 small pieces, at an astronomical cost of R290-00. Similarly, the pork belly portions that the other members ordered, had just 3small slices. This was most definitely NOT value for money, not to mention the starter, whose pricing would have been more appropriate for mains. The actual starter, Crispy lamb sweetbreads with red mole, left me very baffled, as till now, I am still struggling to make sense of the culinary experience.

Location wise, I rate it 5/5. From a culinary experience, 2/5. Definitely not value for money.

Went for lunch with the family. We're very fortunate that it snowed a day before as it enhanced our experience even more. The food was as amazing as expected. The ambience was amazing. The wines were priced realistically. Definitely a fine dining experience that I can recommend for value for money. Didn't do the wine tasting, but is on my to do list.
