Carne Keerom Cape Town

Hidden away on Keerom street this eatery is like a book that should not be judged by its cover. Dining setting is two level with the lower part being the one to choose as the atmosphere is warm and cozy and huddles you away from the hustle and bustle. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and seek to make your dining experience one to remember. Service is excellent and you will not lack for anything whilst there. With a name like Carne, the expectation is that the meat will be the star of show. It lives up to this brilliantly and then some. The choice of cuts and the quality is superb. Flavorful and juicy each piece is cooked to perfection. Our porcini mushroom ravioli starter was equally impressive. I would recommend this place to anyone seeking an experience of meat and quality. Their wine list caters for a variety of wines and you’ll be sure to find something that pairs well with carnivorous entrees and delights. Bookings is advised and parking is a bit of a challenge thus use a ride hailing service. Will be back for sure

This is a meat lovers paradise, I was in my element. I definitely got my meat fix especially with the variety on my plate. The service was good, it was busy but I would recommend going when not in a rush as this is somewhere to sit and enjoy. The Ribeye steak was ok but the highlight was the SA steak plate. The combination of different game on the plate was fantastic, from Ostrich to Kudu, black wildebeest and more. I would highly recommend getting this when visiting, especially if you not from South Africa, as this will give you the best taste of africa. I will be back to enjoy this again 🤙

Perfect restaurant. You get shown the meats before you order which was a pleasant start. Waiters are all friendly and really comforting there! I recommend the safari plate - but be fast with eating as there is so much meat that it might get cold as you take so long with eating 😅 Starters are great as well!

Carne is a beautiful Restaurant tucked away in Keerom Street. The atmosphere is a perfect setting for a date, celebration, romance or just transporting yourself to another time. The Food is outstanding and so is the wine. The service is excellent.

What an amazing experience we went for my partners birthday and it truly was a night to remember. Great food great service. Highly recommend.

Intrigued by the opportunity to sample a variety of different game, my wife and I visited Carne for the safari plate, consisting of ostrich, kudu, wildebeest, impala, and blesbok. First thing we discovered was this, all five were delicious; second thing we discovered, our palates or the vocabulary we have to describe meat is very limited. All five had slight differences in flavor, more distinct differences in terms of texture, and the discussion about these differences in flavor and texture are one of the highlights of my South Africa vacation. In addition to the safari plate, we ordered the porcini mushroom and truffle ravioli—buttery truffle flavor with a heavy side of Parmesan; be still my heart—and a garden salad. In addition to the meal, we each sampled a number of wines and we were blown away, so good!!

I was delighted to discover that Carne Keerom had reopened after the long Covid induced hiatus. A beautiful space, great ambiance, friendly and attentive team, and excellent selection of steak. Also has a good wine list with SA and Italian wines including some local big names at a very reasonable price. Really enjoyable.

It’s a shame that 5 stars is the max, because this place deserves 10! From the moment we walked in, we felt at home. The service was amazing, attentive and the presentation of meats was a lovely touch! The food… not sure where to even begin! Beautiful presentation, generous portions and incredible flavor! We spent our last evening in South Africa here, and we couldn’t have imagined a better meal! We hope to make many more trips down to South Africa, and we wish all to include a meal here!
