A contemporary restaurant highlighted by comfortable and modern furnishings, well equipped bar, good service and good food. Pros: fair prices, good food, clean feel, friendly staff, easy accessible, spacious, live music, Cons: Restaurant was empty at the time of ordering 3 dishes, yet we waited 45 mins for service. A bit breezy on windy days. Value for money on the Butter chicken not great in comparison to the Tilapia fish or Peri Peri chicken. Food report : Butter Chicken - Relatively small portion, about 10 pieces of chicken in stainless steel pot. Butter chicken sauce was a little cold when served, and lacked a true butter chicken flavour. Positive was the chicken was really well cooked, very tender. A good dish. Would reorder. Peri Peri Chicken - half portion. Generous swerving of chicken and potatoes fries. Sauce had good flavour and spice. Garlic Naan - stand-out dish of the day. Freshly made, perfectly cooked, light , fluffy and nice hint of garlic sauce. World class. Tilapia Fish, generous size, well cooked, tender. Very nice tomato onion sauce. Crispy edges. Good dish. All up , a pleasant experience, will be returning.

Salt & Pepper has such a warm and inviting ambience — cozy yet stylish. The interior feels chic without being overwhelming, perfect for both casual and slightly fancy dining. The food portions are generous and flavorful, and the service was attentive and friendly. Definitely a spot I’d recommend for a relaxed meal with a touch of class.

I definitely loved everything about this restaurant. The food is delicious, I also had the tropical/mixed milkshake and I loved it. The atmosphere is relaxing, has good lighting for pictures, the service is fast and the guys there are friendly and welcoming. I am definitely going back. I also appreciate the fact that the menu is affordable.

Locate me in the new Rose Avenue Shopping Mall. It’s like a breath of fresh air. For my first experience I was very impressed. Long story short - the curry is to die for. The garlic naan is crispy and hits the right spot. Not very busy still. Maybe improve customer service/experience. I’ll definitely be back. Parking could be a nightmare so just Uber and let your driver take you.
