Celebrated my 60th birthday dinner here on 11Apr21. Service excellence from first meeting to discuss menu options combined with great service on the night. The well presented awesome dishes, drinks and delectable deserts set the tone for a relaxed evening. The staff went out of their way to please all attendees. A beautiful evening was had by all.This venue is highly recommended, all guests expressed that a revisit to the restaurant is on the cards.WELL DONE FAEZ AND TEAM!

I have eventually gone to the place after all the reviews it received. It’s a very nice and cosy place nice Mountain View and the music in the place set a nice ambience. The starter crumbed mushrooms was great. The mains was huge . I had the lamb breyani with paapa dooms and three condiments and my wife had the herb chicken breast with roasted veg and mushrooms ravioli. It’s was superb. Dessert banana and caramel pancakes another hit just big enough to share.so it you looking for authentic breyani don’t waste your time with these corner shop that sell per kilo . They do offer take away. Will definitely be back.

Great venue. Great menu. Slow service but the quality of the food is tasteful, delicious, and the presentation eye catching. The servings are rather generous. Found the pricing very competitive too. Overall, would visit again.

Quota of waiters was not enough to render good service for the amount of guests.. Food at alhamba not up to standard. I ordered a salmon, avo and cream cheese sandwich. The avo and crean cheese was smeared on as thin as butter and also the lettuce was old and soggy. Besides waiting an hour for our food that came in drips and drabs. Hair was found on waffle and waiter casually apologised as if it was not a big deal.. Terrible service, terrible food. Sorry not sorry wont go again..NB no aircons and no plugs to put their fans on either..

This place robbed my niece today. They are liars and thieves. They can’t do simple math and the manager was unwilling to rectify their mistake. I would NOT recommend. And instead of resolving the problem, they block you instead. Can’t wait to write my piece on this place in the newspaper.

It was a wedding reception that was attended. Small..cosy and warm environment with friendly and respectful staff. Its a lovely place if you looking for something sweet and intimate. Its also very accessible for parking for the disabled. Theres parking right at entrance door and theres a ramp to go up if u in a wheelchair.. But if you walking with difficulty there is no rail to balance or hold on to.. Thank you Alhambra for making this day special for my friends.

Spacious, chandeliers enchanting, stunning views from the balconies.The food for a wedding was awesome, from the prawns starter, the lamb curry mains with light tikka chicken + vegetables & Greek salad and sambal. The dessert just complemented the whole experience. Followed by choice of tea or coffee with cute biscuits on platters.

Classy luxurious setting. Calm quiet atmosphere in the heart of Lansdowne. Food is exotic and flavor rich. Friendly staff. Definitely a must visit. I do recommend calling before you visit. They tend to host functions regularly and as such may be closed to casual visitors.
