Supporting our community is whats most important right now 🙏🥰 Popped in for a coffee this morning to say hello and see how the team is holding up. After a month full of challenges for us here in KZN, it was so nice to see the how much effort the staff have all put in to make Tasos look so beautiful and inviting 😍 Always makes me feel like im amongst family when i go there 🙏❤😁 Thank you for the love 🤩#supportBallito #Staystrong #supportlocal 🇿🇦

Very nice vibe and great location. I wasn’t too big of a fan of the food (I had a four seasons pizza) however the staff was great and the general experience was great.

This places service was terrible. After we have waited for 15 minutes we had to get our own menu. No one came to get our order either, we had to call someone to get service. They even closed the whole sliding door without taking us into consideration and making us feel like were not a part of the restaurant. I will grant them 1 star because their food was good but had to wait over an hour for it.

Horrendous covid protocols! Walked in and wasnt sanitized. Waitrons all have no masks on. Chefs have no masks and biting something off his fingers. Had no choice but to leave and on the way out one waitron commented Corona experts. And then waitrons/restaurants want to know why we are locked down and why they lose jobs...

What a lovely place and great decor, with an amazing view. Even though it was very busy we felt very welcomed with the friendly staff and owners. The food was delicious and well presented. I would highly recommend Taso’s.

We popped into Tasos, shortly before flying back to Gauteng, for a quick but light meal. We both ordered a naked burger, no bun or basting. It was an avo, bacon and blue cheese burger with salad as a side. The food was good, the patties maybe a little too well done, the drinks cold, and service was great. It is a busy restaurant, I suggest reserving a table if you plan on paying them a visit.

Ballitto newest additions. Situated on the beach with unobtrusive sea views. Decorated beautifully, menus is varied and food and service was excellent. With low ceilings noise levels are high, so dont expect a quiet meal for two. But the vibe is excellent if you want a lovely time out.

Best Chicken Snitzel I have EVER tasted! Tender and delicious. The mushroom sauce was absolutely the best! Real butter and cream, and fresh mushrooms. The service was quick as it was after the rush. Highly recommendable

The restaurant overlooks the ocean and has great views. They specialise in steak and fish. The staff are all very friendly, polite and helpful. I had a melt in your mouth camembert steak which was absolutely divine. A great place for supper.

Excelente food, but unfortunately for the 2 time I visited, waited for over 45 minutes for the food to arrive. Just a way to lose the apetite. very sorry but not going again 😢 only because of the poor service.

Review №23

Stunning unencumbered views of the ocean from the best vantage point in Ballito from this brand new restaurant with newly built decks, where you are greeted and welcomed like an old friend by owner Andre. A varied menu, reasonable prices, delicious G&Ts to enjoy, in-a casual and comfortable ambience, created by the stylish interior and the beautiful use of colourful plateware. Gorgeous place, we will be back!

Excellent food only overshadowed by the outstanding view.Edit: last view visits, food and view has still been great BUT owners/managers/staff flouting Covid rules, no masks or worn on their chinsEdit edit: down to one star, waiter refusing to wear a mask when requested by patron because it isnt law and its lies peddled by mainstream media

If you keen to have dinner and dont feel like chatting to the person you having dinner with this is the place... they trying to run a club and not a restaurant. We ate dinner next to several unhappy board tables and no one could hear each other, you cant even communicate with waiter you cant hear him through the music and he has a mask on which is good but with the noise makes it difficult. Once thing for sure the food is great... . service OK, ventilation bad... especially for Covid... its bad. Im young and enjoy good commercial rave but there is a time place for it.... and dinner is supposed to be time to sit around the table and enjoy each others company.... very disappointed

Review №37

The manager is so rude, he took our table just because we are black, give it to a white family. He justified it by telling us it is a table of 6 and we are not six. Worst he didnt give us another table. I chose not to upload his picture but wow he killed my positive vibe.Otherwise, the place is beautiful and the food is good. I gave it 2 stars because of the racist restaurant manager.This is still a good place to relax and Bevs.

Dec 26 18:13, house is full, music is pumping. Load shatter and people laughing. Great vibe. Sun is setting and everyone is in great mood. Chefs choice burger was great but bit under seasoned for my taste, same with the cheese burger. Rump 300g steak not medium but above, more done, no pink at all, but awesome taste and the rendering of the fat was perfect. Tequila was great as always, the Margarita was a flop, no Cointreau or lime and maybe half shot Tequila. Staff awesome, friendly, professional. Communicating any changes and care about their customers. Will definitely visit again. 30min later, Scratch that, waited 35min without any acknowledgement from staff. Totally ignored two requests for the bill after they failed to produce alternative desert order. Manager waived the 3 Tequila Strawberries. To little too late, No TIP.

Review №53

Such an amazing Restaurant with the most amazing views!By far the most enjoyable meal Ive had in a while.I ordered the Springbok Carpaccio for starters and the presentation and flavour was phenomenal!-traditional but the reduction that was drizzled on top added the most delightful smokey sweetness to the meat.For mains I ordered the Fillet Tagliatta. I 100% recommend you try this! The meat was perfectly cooked and the flavour pairing was to die for!!For dessert I had the amarena cherry delight.Which was the perfect way to end this mean.This will be a regular stop when Im in the area, I NEED to try EVERYTHING on this menu!

All kitchen staff dont wear masks or any Covid PPE. Our waiter kept on hugging us every time he came to the table extremely inappropriate. Will not go back again. Sorry! you should be reported to the Health Department.

Please note that NO sides are included in the price on the menu, just paid R32.00 extra for mash with ribs of R195.00 as well as R32.00 for a calamari starter of R85.00. Such a pity, its really a great restaurant, not necessary to overcharge 😔
