Ignored on arrival, felt unwelcome, staff continued to a prepare tables.
Food presentation great but main course very salty and pie overlooked,difficult to cut and eat. Brulee also disappointing

Owner's description
At this restaurant, a lot of time and effort is spent sourcing the best suppliers to ensure that standards are maintained – from meat and beer to wine and coffee. Executive Chef Leanne Roberts and her team is versatile, allowing De Kloof to change the menus on a weekly basis to ensure only the best ingredients are used.
Expect French cuisine with a modern twist and local flavours like springbok liver parfait, verjuice jelly, brioche, fresh fig and pear compote. Owners Charl and Leon taste more wines than is perhaps necessary to ensure that every wine on the list offers something special. De Kloof uses WineStation™ http://www.winestation.co.za/ to preserve and dispense wines, and to make sure they are always served at the correct temperature. The service is friendly, warm and accommodating. With sweeping views across Gauteng, De Kloof offers the ideal location to sip a sundowner and feast on delicious snacks. Decor is elegant and understated, with dark wood and chandeliers adding a touch of glamour. The spacious stoep offers a place to relax and enjoy the summer sun. With full access to the driving range, you can tee off and be back in time to enjoy a fabulous dinner or drinks.

De Kloof was one of my two favorite restaurants in Pretoria ( the other one Mosaic) during the six years I was living in SA. Always when I return I try to squeeze in a night there. Fantastic wines, imaginative food and warm hospitality!!

The worst restaurant in Pretoria. We arrived 13:20. We can only ask for our food at 13:45. At 14:30 they told us that our food will be ready in five minutes. 14:45 arrived the food for two of us. After the two lucky ones finished our food arrived the food for the other three people in the table. We were the only table in the restaurant. When we complained they told us to write the review in TripAdvisor. We had done it so know we are writing it also here. Unbelievable

Went there for Xmas Lunch. Have never been and the menu for the day looked great! Real fine dining or so I thought. The food was shocking! Smoked butter - NOT!. Smoorsnoek which is a typical SA dish - was inedible. Seared Tuna was VERY overcooked Tuna. Turkey Roulade so dry one could not eat it. Olive crumble was pieces of olives. Braised Beef cheeks was dry as bone. Trimmings were inedible. Panno cotta (pudding) was something serve in a pastry shell that resembles baby food. As for the ambiance - if there was any the kids and toddlers made sure that it disappeared very quickly. Three items were acceptable. The cauliflower panna cotta was good (nothing more). The beef fillet was not overcooked or dry. The burnt honey ice cream was very good. Such a pity as the Menu was very good and well balanced. Service slow. Wine average. The one pairing they suggested I question. Not sure if they understand how to pair. I almost got the feeling it was the blind leading the blind. From manager/owner ( who was there but never made his appearance) to Chef (?) to waiters.
