La Vita'e - Pietermaritsburg

Such a pity that the lobster and prawn starter is NEVER available. Almost false advertising because it's touted on several websites as a signature dish. Otherwise the range of starters is very good, as are the specials and and main courses, with the exception of the wildebeest roulade which was so tough as to be inedible. However the day was saved when it was quickly swapped out for a fantastic steak. Good service from attentive waiter. Coffee not great. Just beware when you book that they don't place you right by the kitchen door or directly under the noisy speakers. We asked to be moved and were given a cosy table tucked away behind the bar

The service was absolutely amazing. I would go back for the service alone. We were seen to from the moment we entered. Our waitron was extremely polite and friendly and well informed. The complimentary focaccia bread certainly did help us get in a better mood. But the mains were the highlight. I had the spinach and feta panzerotti with a creamy sauce. And it was so amazing. I couldn't help but smile while eating. We didn't have any drinks so I don't know if they are any good. But I would definitely recommend this restaurant and I can't wait to go back.

Fantastic service, amazing food and wine and great atmosphere. If you want to eat something that you can't get anywhere else, that is fine dining, but without the costs of fine dining, this is the restaurant.

Really modern fine dining. At a reasonable price for the type of food. Very exciting dishes with unique flavor combinations. Highly recommend

Superb meal, excellent service and a great host. Thanks Tim for a most enjoyable evening.
