Would recommend The Godfather Restaurant to all my family and friends.Had a great company outing as well and well accommodated.From a wide variety of drinks ams shooters to choose from. The BEEF RIBS has never disappointed 😁. But not only the ribs, but the steaks are done to perfection. After all of that, the dessert, wow!A must try....

1st time to visit after the Restuarant moved from Centurion to Midstream.Ambience is still spot-on and the food AMAZING as always. Friendly staff and very accommodating to special requests.Love the fact that the owners is also part of the management on premises and loves to chat with their clients.

What a great experience! From the food to the service - a great experience! Only reason I didnt give 5 stars is because they didnt have Amaretto when we wanted to order a dessert drink that contained it.

Love this place. Visited again after many years and the food just got better and the portion sizes are fantastic. My absolute favourite is the Halva pudding. Thats all Im going to say, you will have to go and see for yourself.

We went to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary tonight at the Godfather Restaurant in Midstream. We had good service and the steaks we chose melted in our mouths. Many years ago we had our first Wedding Anniversary at the Godfather when it still was in Centurion. Tonight after many years of frequenting the restaurant. We had a really great supper and evening. We also enjoyed chatting to our host Janet reminisced on previous occasions we had been to the Godfather. Thanks for a wonderful evening

It must be the best restaurant in Centurion. No better place to celebrate any special occasion. From the welcome, the service, food. Cannot find fault. Remember next time to use a bigger dish for the creme brullee.. Far too small.

Nice place, meat was prepared good. The mojito however had a very bad mint flavor. My wife could not drink it. The overall experiance was OK. Looked like the owners also came to make sure everything is OK, so they do care about the clients.

Review №32

Absolutely bad service. We booked for 15 people and when we arrive 5 guys are at the host table, no one greets or offers service. A minute or so later a manager comes to assist. Tell him who we are and we are directed to where we seated. Now here is the kicker. On the menu they have a 2016 blend red wine. I order, the waitress comes with the silliest excuse in offering me a 2018 blend. When we out pf tge actual menus item we offer the next available. Wow how about telling me b4 . I have seen very bad reviews for this place and as a community member I wanted to eventually support them. But alas I understand why they are so badly rated. Who pay for a 2016 blend but is drinking a 2018. Unheard of right

My happy place! Janet and Steve always go out of their way to make your lunch or dinner extra special. What I love about Godfather is the longevity of the waiters and they know what you like and what not.The food are absolutely heaven sent, best Snitzel ala Godfather that cannot be beaten, steaks and hamburgers are great.When you in Gauteng do yourself a favour and have a great meal at The Godfather Midstream.

Review №67

Not in the same league as Turn & Tender , Lupos and Salsa. I frequent at least one per week and have been to Godfather 3 times before I tried the others. Restaurant has good potential and professional maitradee however the food needs to step up a level with quality and train the young waiters and waitresses more and they could give the others a run. Learn the food , make Recomendations that you have taisted. But Never offer all gold tomatoe sauce doevrhevmqoat expensive meltomato all gold

This restaurant has been a firm favourite for me and my family for over a decade. The spareribs are the best you’ll ever find and nothing off their grill has ever disappointed me. Excellent wine selection and front of house service is always outstanding. Can’t go wrong with The Godfather.

Staff is friendly and service good. Food is also good but not as good as I could remember a few years ago. The whole experience was average but below expectations. Never been there since. If you like steak you should give it a try. Easy accessible, plenty of parking, safe area.

If you want steak and only steak youre in the right place. If not stay away. I ordered grilled calamari which was swimming in butter and so lemony it was inedible!!! Ended up eating only the salad. Sorry was my first & last visit.
