Protege - Franschhoek

Wonderful experience at protege. Every course was so tasty and staff could not have been kinder to us. We did the wine pairing and it was excellent. Also a tip to sit at the chefs table to watch all the action. This is a must visit. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner

Amazing meal at Protege. We chose to sit at the counter for a more authentic experience which I would highly recommend for 2 people. The tuna tartare dish was unreal- best I have had. Acona is AMAZING. She made our dining experience. She was so passionate, attentive and is a real credit to the team. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

As a vegetarian it is very disappointing that there are no options on the menu. Only at the end of the dinner we were told that we could have ordered vegetarian options. This has made the experience not as pleasant as it could have been. The staff is very nice but when explaining the food they spoke so soft we were unable to understand the ingredients. Food: 3

The food was very good. However, the service was not appropriate for the price (the meal menu was not handed out and the vegetarian option was only available upon request the cutlery was only provided with a knife without a fork). Very expensive compared to the many other fine dining options in the area with rather mediocre service. Food: 5 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4

Fantastic experience at this high end restaurant. Great quality food and service. The meticulous detail and the quality of each plate is top notch. We had the chef’s counter experience and it was certainly worth it. Really would recommend, even if it’s quite pricey. Plenty of dietary options too including vegan. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner
