Ginja was a recommendation from our lovely guesthouse owner at La Rose, I am so happy he did. Having worked in top restaurants and dined in plenty also my whole career I have rarely found a place that I felt I could dine in without something negative to say. Ginja was my epiphany!!! The restaurant at the time was is... more

Being longstanding Ginja fans we were mazed to see how seamless the transition was to the new premises. All the old waiters are still there so I need not say more about brilliant and attentive service. The premises while not quite old world charm have been transformed with nostalgia and will certainly satisfy old regulars. The food seems to have... more

From numerous reviews we had very high expectations of Ginja, but these were only partially met. The restaurant aims high, and the menu promised much with some very imaginitive ideas such as the "Around the world in a spoon" starter which offered spoon-sized portions of numerous tastes from around the world. But sadly not many of the sppons contained tastes... more

We ate at Ginja on 15th October having read the TripAdvisor reviews and having heard from another guest. I had pear and mushroom salad followed by assiette of lamb, and my partner had "around the world in a spoon" followed by the catch of the day. I have to first of all say, the atmosphere was great, the service was... more

My brother and I went to this restaurant at the end of our Southern Africa trip based on recommendations here and it exceeded our high expectations. The service was very well-informed, professional and attentive, the food was creative and delicious and the atmosphere was probably a bit too romantic for siblings but relaxing nonetheless! The only annoyance was waiting for... more

Everyone recommended Ginja to us and several told us it was the best restaurant in town. We tried it as our last dinner in South Africa, thinking we were saving the best for last. The restaurant is very difficult to find and has virtually no sign. Some may like the anonymity but I find it annoying for a good restaurant... more

Unpretentious and informal with an air of sophistication. Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Highly recommended more

Last year we found Ginja and every one in the party of 4 loved it, I was lucky enough to be back in Cape town again this August and had to visit Ginja again. The food, value, service and attmosphere (even on a tuesday evening) was top notch. We also ate at the Roundhouse and much prefered Ginja, its less... more

I visitied Ginja two years ago and loved it. The food was great and service was spot on. I returned in a recent visit to Cape Town and I was disappointed. There was large delays in between courses and service was a bit sloppy. I can live with bad service if the food is good but its just not up... more
