Carne Keerom Cape Town

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.

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!!

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!

Great restaurant! We had an excellent dinner here. We didn’t have a reservation but were offered a table immediately. The service was friendly and knowledgeable. The food was extremely good, especially the steak.

Went there to celebrate a friend Bday, service was good, food was nice, atmosphere was lovely, what else you need? Not too fancy, great choice of meat, perfect for meat lovers. Last time I had dinner here was 8 years ago and nothing has changed. Still very enjoyable. I definitely recommend it if you love your meat 🥩

What a pleasure to experience simple, excellent quality food prepared perfectly. Love the simplicity of the presentation without endless decoration and sauces. Vegetables were outstanding and the meat exceptional. Service professional. Highly recommended.

Saw this on the TV show "Somebody Feed Phil." It did not disappoint! The wild game steaks were fantastic and there was vegetarian options for my partner. The wait staff were attentive and accommodating. A great meal from start to finish!

One of the best steak houses in Cape Town. Great ambience, great service and super quality products. The owner attaches great importance to quality and only slaughters as much as necessary. You get a selection of available cuts of meat for your order. Here you can choose yourself how big and what exactly you want. After the selection is made, the waiter recommends whether medium rare or medium is appropriate. I must confess that I prefer my meat medium rare, but when the waiter promised me that if I didn't like medium rare he would prepare something else, I agreed. When the meat arrived and I tasted it, I have to admit that I wasn't promised too much. The meat just melted in my mouth, it was extremely juicy and tasty. The service was first class from start to finish. Very friendly, courteous and in a great mood. It's one of my favourite places and I can only recommend it to everyone. One of the absolute highlights is the "Safari" dish. Definitely worth a visit.
