Mythos Umhlanga

I like Mythos in Johannesburg. The owners are humane and friendly. Always greeting people and making sure all is well.

I decided to go to Durban and had dinner at Mythos Umhlanga.

Food is consistent and well prepared

If you don’t like noise or loud music that’s the only thing that might put you off. When celebrating someone special occasion , they crank up the speakers and lots of clapping. I personally like it as it’s few minutes and back to normal.

Overall great space , great service from staff, a walking distance to promenade or the beach.

The restaurant was clean and well decorated but the service was slow and the staff under-trained.

The restaurant has a fresh contemporary vibe. Unfortunately it took close to an hour (off season and on a Wednesday night) for our food to arrive after we had ordered. More concerning was the staff's (both a waiter and a manager) lack of understanding in terms of allergens. When we asked whether the sauce that came with one of the meals contained wheat (need gluten free), we were told that "it should be ok". When someone's health/life on the line, these things should be checked with the chef and confirmed categorically.

One of my favorites in Durban. Everything is fresh and the service is great. Highly recommend the crispy lamb chops, the sardines and the peri peri king prawns.

Just had my worst meal at Mythos Umhlanga. Used to be one of my favourates but once management don,t care....
No control over the food that leaves the kitchen, I have never in my life had such badly over cooked chips with my food. This is supposed to be a classy restaurant not a cheap take out!

Great first time visit. Place was quiet for a Sunday evening so we had great service. Attentive staff was there to ask on our needs for the meal. Pita and dip is a must as dips are fresh and tasty. Large enough for a table of 4. Pita meals are very filling and comes with large portion of chips. Souvlaki is equally filling and the added tzatziki was a great addition. Worth a second visit. Prices are well worth it.

Lovely atmosphere, pleasant decor and colours
Staff is friendly, though could be slightly more efficient.
Most dishes are good. Tapas style, so need to order a few dishes which may end up a little pricey.
