Been here a couple of times before, but the day I took photos and decided to review it was a very disappointing one. Not sure why because the restaurant was not busy at all. We normally order our drinks, starters and mains all at once as we have a standard order everytime. Drinks took about 20 minutes to get to the table, starters about half and hour and mains after 1 hour. The fire cracker squid was not crispy at all, very wet batter. Oysters were ok, not the best. The platter for 2 had soggy/soft calamari heads(normally crispy). Rice was a bit chalky and the the chips tasted very old. The prawns, calamari tubes, mussels and fish was nice but the small stuff ruined the experience. Not sure why but they need to pick up their service or they are going to start losing customers.

I ordered the grilled salmon multiple times. Once with rice and once with green beans. Both times were cooked perfectly. Seasoned well. The sushi here is also good and the Village salad for one is also fantastic. I would recommend this place for lunch and dinner. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person R 500+

I am absolutely disappointed by the slow service and small portions. This is what passes for a portion of the "Calamari Three Ways" and at over R200 per plate... I almost thought it was a kiddies meal. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person R 250–300 Food: 1 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2

New ownership and obvious changes are bringing the standard down. Staff are friendly and hard working but limited by rules on how they can accommodate customer preferences. There's no managers coming around to the tables either so you'll have to suffer in silence if you have a problem.

It was an important family gathering for us and this venue was ideal - quiet and not busy at all at the time. The device was excellent and the food well prepared which was served exactly to order. We will certainly visit the Highveld Ocean Basket when we are in the area again.
