Cargo Hold Restaurant

Very nice place to relax and watch the sharks while you eat. We had the crays and prawns. Lovely garlic butter. Steak was cooked well and the Brulē was creamy but way too heavy on the sugar. Staff do need a tad more training. All and all a great experience.

We ordered the peri peri prawns, these were huge prawns ,the sauce was nice but a little on the sweet side. We also ordered the lamb shank, this was tasty. The overall aesthetics of the restraunt could have been better but you can view parts of the aquarium which we enjoyed.

Walking in I was quite disappointed with the decor of the restaurant. Yes it is supposed to give off a vibe of a cargo hold of a ship, but as a result it leaves a cold and soulless atmosphere. The large wall to wall and floor to ceiling aquarium is a lovely display of a variety of fish and small shark. However, once you dig into the food all is forgotten as your attention is drawn to the delicious dish in front of you! I had the peri peri prawns, like I’ve done in several restaurants around the country, and this was easily the best peri peri prawns dish I have ever had. I will return easily just to have this dish again. Also at our table , the chicken breasts were ordered and it was juicy and very flavourful-you will not go wrong in ordering this as well.

The tank is amazing however the staff are not very professional and need training... the food was ok... we ordered medium to well done steak however the plate was bloody and unappealing. The milkshakes are also very average...Our bill was R750 for 2 pax and really not worth it.The restuarant could also do with moisture absorbers as it creates a stuffy environment.

The prawns were excellent. The fish of the day had good quality, but no flavor. Of course the highlight is the fish. It's nice, but it would be nice if we were surrounded 360. If you're not sitting right next to the tank, you could miss some views. The cost is higher than near alternative restaurants, but the amount of food was much more. The family enjoyed it and they aren't easily impressed.

We went for my birthday dinner, we had a wonderful time the food was great it's was a day we never forget.

It was the dinning with a piece of the ocean that did it for me! Food was great and so was the service. Definitely a place i would go back to. The prices arent even bad for the quantity and quality of food you getting. Reservations has to be made prior to going and you have to request to be seated next to the tank . The place does get quite busy during the dinner times. Its the perfect place to celebrate a loved ones birthday or anniversary.

The taste of the food was very poor, the grills are infused with cinnamon which doesn't compliment the grills at all, the smell was overwhelming and I unfortunately couldn't have the meal. The toilets were not cleaned up and both female toilets had no toilet paper. For the price it was absolutely not worth it. The only thing we enjoyed was the tank with sea creatures. The decor was dull and they are not always fully booked this appears to be a marketing tactic. The food was a 1/10 will definitely not revisit. Strongly suggest adjusting the menu, dishes, prices, decor and chef. Best of luck
