    An incredible restaurant. A definite must visit if you are ever in Cape Town. Great selection of steak 🥩 and wine🍷. The staff are super friendly and very helpful. If you are like me who can’t really make up my mind when presented with several equally amazing options then you will definitely need the staff here. Ask for the game of the day or describe your taste to them and they’ll definitely recommend something great to have and an equally amazing wine to accompany with. To get an even better experience, try at least to reserve a table in advance because it gets busy sometimes and a walk in won’t guarantee you those amazing seats with a view of the sunset. When the weather is nice, you can seat outside which makes the experience even more magical. An impeccable place to enjoy great steak, wine and conversation with a friend or family. This review doesn’t fully describe just how much of a great experience we had. Wholeheartedly recommend it.

    Service is great. Starter I will give 4/5. The main course meal wasn’t that great,i would give 1/5 on main course. If u r coming for service and Kobe beef( 200g for 1.6k) then you can come over here for it. Otherwise I wouldn’t recommend steak here. Meat is a bit dry, the dish look is below average.

    Such a beautiful and romantic restaurant. Food was great, steaks were cooked to perfection. The only downfall is that the tables are placed way too close to one another, you can't have a conversation with the person sitting across from you and not hear what the people next to you are talking about. Not only that, One would think that you would have a more quiet atmosphere considering the place but there was a table that was so loud and just made it hard to speak to the person sitting across from you. But other than that it was okay. George was a fantastic waiter- thank you for keeping my wine glass full 😄

    Start by selecting your steak from the counter, and discus how you want it cooked with the expert staff. A good range of cuts, and from around the world. Probably one of the best steaks I’ve had - and I’ve eaten in several different countries. Impeccable service and a friendly and vibrant atmosphere. Outstanding wine selection for all tastes - make sure to visit their wine cellars for an education!

    We pitched up for a traditional South African meal and were served, steak, pap and creamed spinach on the side, malva pudding for desert and Rock Shandy to wash the lot down. Boy what can I say? The food was DELICIOUS! Steak (we opted for ribeye, medium to well) was perfectly done. Moreover they didn't just fill our stomachs, but also our hearts too!!! ♥️

    Celebrated my wife's 50th at The Butcher Shop. We were 14 people. Our waiter was in fine form. The food was really good. My ribeye was excellent and rare just as ordered. Most of our group had the fillet, so a pretty easy table. Everybody only had positive comments about the venue and the meal. I have visited a few times before and will continue to do so.

    Absolutely wonderful time, starting with the complementary boerie and bread👌🏾😊i came back fr the food, I'm a certified meat lover... And this is always up my alley... Wine prices r ridiculously pricy though ... but one may argue the collection is worth it and i would agree.

    Before heading to the URC (United Rugby Championship) Final at the Cape Town Stadium, we went to The Bucher Shop & Grill (which is within walking distance of the stadium) for some pre-game lunch. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and they have a nice selection of beers and wines to choose from. As the name implies, they specialize in meat dishes. I decided to go for the Wagyu Burger which was very tasty. The waiter was also friendly and welcoming. Another thing I liked about this restaurant is that it is just across the road from the Sea Point Promenade and Lighthouse, making this a great spot for sundowner photos.

    Now I can say for certain that wherever you are you can get a proper steak. Johannesburg or Cape Town, you can go to the Butchery Shop and get the cut you want cooked to perfection, wether it be Kobe, Wagyu or a simple Sirloin or Rib Eye. Amazing decoration and atmosphere with wine all around you apparently they do not have a wine storage or its too small for the huge wine list they have! Very good service. Food is amazing, whatever you chose on the menu.

    Thanks to our excellent waiter Mr.D's recommandation we had two delicious steaks(meat was very,very good) and a nice red wine.We had a great evening.Thanxs....

  • 4/5 Lorenzo F. 6 months ago on Google
    Awesome experience and amazing meat dishes. One small negative were that the waiters were not really paying attention to us. We were in two for a date and were sitting at a 4 seater and the waiter didn’t clear the other unused glasses and plates to allow us a little more space. When we asked for it to be cleared we got told “hold on I’m busy” and later came back to clear the table. Drink order was taken late and arrived 25min after we ordered it. When we eventually ordered our food and the waiter realised we ordered an SQ item he was on our table checking up on us every 5 minutes. Our drinks got refilled super quickly and he made conversation with us asking and ensuring everything was ok. Now this isn’t a bad thing, but it would be nice to know that everyone gets treated equally despite how much money they are spending. Felt a little shallow to only get good service if you spend a lot of money or order an SQ item…

    Ok, this place is in South Africa. The atmosphere is inviting, good vibes nice layout. Unique display items. The service as it should be was top notch. Now the steak was done to order the sides were on point. The bartender got down with the mojito. Very good 👍🏾

    I thought they just do grill foods only. So when I went and I found out they had variety on the menu, I was pleasantly surprised. I had an oxtail, and it was really good. My partner had a steak, and he highly rated it - said best steak he ever had. I only had a glass of the house wine - chardonnay, but it was so good. Great on the palate. Service was great. Most importantly, it is kid friendly.

    Best steak ever!! 11 of us ate at the restaurant and we all had the fillet steak, not one piece of meat was left on the plates. Absolutely beautiful 😋. The staff were also incredibly friendly, great vibes ❤️

    I had dinner there twice with a friend. The ostrich fillet and the Wagyu ribeye were fantastic! The service staff was very courteous and professional. Highly recommended for wine and meat.

    Beautiful atmosphere, perfect location, good vibes. I ordered medium steak, unfortunately it was too well done. However my partner got his steak medium rare just like he wanted. Waiter very friendly, brought pens for my son to colour in while we waiting for food. Food also didn’t take too long, so I’m very happy with the service. I will be back for more.
