Café del Sol Classico

An excellent dining experience with the family, the food just seems to have gotten better. Well done. We will be back.

Excellent fine dining in the new venue, with the recent addition of delicious pizza.amazing views and great service.

Went there last night at the new blueberry center. The restaurant feels a little less intimate than the previous venue (on the inside) but once it fills up has a good vibe.
There was a temporary manager there helping out I believe whilst the center gets going and he was phenomenal. Attentive without being over bearing, checked up at the right times and clearly manages the staff well.
Service was excellent.
I had been keen on the ragu again and it was probably the best one I've had there. My partners Ravioli special was also exceptionally good with absolutely zero complaints.

Lovely new venue, great service and exceptional food.
Well done guys and good luck

Delicious food, the salted caramel creme brulee is Devine.
Great service with proud staff!
Well done Chiara and Ryan!

Top quality Italian. Must try the carbonara and risotto. Portion sizes have shrunk a bit, but the quality had remained consistent.

Not a budget restaurant, but SO worth the extra spend! Will be sad when they move to their new premises

Very average, not my style of Italian, dishes with a lot of cream base, so not to my palate and over priced!

We had a birthday dinner and again, it was wonderful. The service was impeccable and the food just sublime. We hadn't been there since 2019 and it did not disappoint. Lately it is so difficult to find a spot that is reasonable with excellent quality and perfect service. Thanks to all at Cafe del Sol

Fabulously tasty food made with quality ingredients. A nicely balanced menu. Something gor everybody including vegans. Hostess is charming.

We had the best time enjoying amazing food and great service and it made for a perfect wedding anniversary setting too!
We loved it! All of it!

Best pasta in Joburg!
Thank you!

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would. The food is Soo incredible. Service was impeccable. And amazing place for a date. Go here you won't be disappointed!

Someone, I presume to be the owner or manager, was carefully inspecting all the food coming out of the kitchen and I did see her send some plates back to the chef's. This was brilliant to see one of the reasons that makes this place incredible.

Such a gorgeous lunch at Cafe del Sol. The food was beautifully presented and tasted magnificent. Service was impeccable, our waiter Washington was friendly and professional. Just lovely!

Great food, excellent waiter (Lindani, I think his name was).
Pricing is in line with a restaurant of this kind of quality.
Wines are marked up significantly though

Definitely worth going.
Strongly recommend the Ragu or risotto

Just absolutely incredible food, incredible service and fantastic waiters who are just so passionate! Its not necessarily a cheap restaurant but the quality of the food and service just completely makes the price irrelevant! Will come in a heart beat!

The food, service and atmosphere was exemplary. The beef Wellington was unbelievable, mushroom ravioli was incredible. Well done. I will be back soon

Great food. Had seabass and my friend ordered alfredo. The food is perfectly prepared. Tried pavlova seemed like a great dessert but itwas not for my palate.

Squisito!
The whole experience was perfect.
From the booking to the last morsel.
Just wow.
The quotes on the walls are very inspiring, and one particular will always guide my path.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. ”
Marianne Williamson.

Does not cater to vegans, despite the menu's claims to the contrary.

Edit as response to the owner: thank you for the response! I was treated kindly and respectfully my entire time there. I went to the olivedale branch that expressly did not have pasta without eggs, could only "try" make a vegan risotto. The vegan ragu, I was told, did not exist.

To quote the manager/owner: "we don't really do vegan".

We subsequently left as the only remaining option was the burger, which we did not come to have.

I have changed my rating to four stars so that I don't affect business. Some more attention to the vegan options, however, would be appreciated.

Lindani, our waiter did a fantastic job at keeping us very happy last night. Our starter was halumi with a balsamic dressing. My main was a delicious hand made tagliatelle pasta, napolitana sauce and calamari and prawn dish. Marcel had Cabonara with tagliatelle pasta and we shared a bottle of rosé. Lindani’s sense of humor kept us giggling every time he came to check up on us. Great evening all round!
