Always a treat. First time going here since COVID. The standard is still top notch. The pepper crusted fillet is my go to with a pepper sauce. Paired with a nice glass of red, makes for the perfect date night. Make sure to leave space for one of their amazing deserts too. Service is friendly and fast. Tables are properly spaced for COVID and all other protocols observed.
Awesome food and friendly staff.The restaurant is clean and neat and all. Covid protocols were observed.There is seating inside as well as outside with beautiful views over the city, perfect for sundowner.The manager did an excellent job explaining the steaks, when the waiter could not answer our questions.Thanks for an awesome evening.
A nice restaurant with an excellent steak. Service not what you would expect from an expensive steakhouse but that also probably influenced by COVID. I am not rushing back but it was okay
The food and servi here is exceptional Im definitely going back soon
Lovely Restaurant with great views, the food was absolutely divine and cooked to perfection. Heaters also kept us cosy as we were having dinner on a chilly evening. We were welcomed very well with a complimentary glass of champagne to celebrate our anniversary by an individual who seemed to be the manager. Only reason that Im not giving 5 stars is that our actual waiter was not very friendly or engaging in stark contrast to the manager who received us.
Had a meal from the set menu and it was disappointing. One of the people I was with was served a bread roll that was frozen. The custard from malva pudding was saturated in condensed milk and the sponge itself was burnt. The cocktails were watered down. Worst long Island ice-tea ever. Its fancy but the service left much to be desired too. We wont be returning to the Sandton branch
I am happy with the service received from the you manager Hati please forgive me if Im spelling the name wrong. On the 26 June 2021 in the afternoon. It was a beautiful first impression. Im definitely coming back. The Rump was succulent and cooked to perfection. 👌🏾
Very upmarket Resturant that caters for a good selection of meals. Steak was excellent and very up market that comes with a price tag. Worth the spend though
Great for any occasion big or small! Gorgeous views and excellent staff
Beautiful location with outstanding service and delicious food. Definitely worth more visits.
One of the best restaurants for any occasion. Elegant, the ambience and the location is just perfect - they have this amazing resturant view where one is able to experience the sunset, so refreshing. The food and portions, worth every cent and note, the staff and management - very accommodating and friendly.
The Grillhouse in Sandton is a hidden gem, the restaurant has a good modern feel, good decor and very lively or atleast when I was there. They also have private rooms for private events or to get away from the crowds.The service is exceptional, friendly staff and very knowledgeable about the selection of meals and drinks.They have a good variety of meals, wine and beer including craft beer.Food quality is good with good portions.
Great venue with friendly staff, and perfect Friday evening music to get into the mood for the weekend
On a recent trip to Johannesburg, a colleague and I set out to find the best ostrich steak in the city. We found it at The Grillhouse. This restaurant is a steakhouse at its best. Staff was friendly, prices were reasonable, and the food was excellent.
Oh my soul! Steak has never tasted this good and the view is simply spectacular! We took guests from the Isle of Man and Finland to taste real South African steak at its finest..and that’s exactly what they got!They literally closed their eyes and went “mmm”. Another comment was “South Africa has the best sunsets in the world”. We do 😃 and The Grillhouse Sandton provides one with the perfect venue to view them.I will be taking my family there soon.
Good food and great vibe. The staff is attentive
Good service and pretty view over Sandton. Steaks are good , but best for me is their excellent Scottish Salmon. Not a great fish lover, but this is exceptional.
Was a recommendation. Booked an hour before arriving for lunch on a Sunday. Restaurant wasn’t busy. Classy decor and good service. Also has a private room.We were served with a fresh complimentary roll and butter. Never order calamari- it was the worse I ever had. Snail sauce was bland. Meat grilled platter was ok - not the best. Butternut soup was terrible. The best was the cheese and chilli sauces everything else was average and below average even the desserts.
Good vibe and good food too. Excellent service.

The Grillhouse in Sandton seems a cut above The Grillhouse in Melrose Arch. The food is quite a lot better, and the restaurant is situated with a fantastic Western view.The prices are rather steep for the food youre receiving - for example, two kebab skewers with a single potato (only cut open) goes for about R165. I understand its a fine dining experience - but there arent the extra touches to give it that experience. The service is also very mediocre - admittedly, I was with a large group, and they may have struggled with forgetting orders.If you are looking for a quieter night out in Sandton, and dont mind paying a little extra, I do recommend The Grillhouse Sandton. Even if its just for a couple of drinks on the deck - the view will not disappoint.
Romantic dinner for two. We had a beautiful night view of Johannesburg. Ordered two fillet steaks, springbok carpaccio and desert. The service is good! The steak was done beautifully and the seasoning was spot on. The carpaccio was very fresh and tender. The creme brule was a little burnt though. Had a great dinner, very recommended.
We had a great time at The Grillhouse. The food was really nice, and the service was top notch. The view at night was amazing too and made for a great evening with an awesome vibe.
One dope fact about this place, theyre sponsored by Hennessy (or have some sort of partnership); how could you hate that?? The place was absolutely beautiful, the ambiance was amazing and the service was top notch 👌🏾👌🏾(maybe the best service we had while in South Africa). Of the many meals ordered, I had the ostrich tenderloins, AMAAAAAZAZING!!! This was my first time trying ostrich, had no idea it was similar to the texture of steak or red meat. I ordered it medium well, which by error on my part wasnt done enough and left much pink inside. They cooked it a little more per my request and it came back better than ever!!! The chef personally brought it to me & was apologetic but I explained to him that was my fault as I had never tried this dish. I would definitely recommend this place.
Great environment and friendly staff. The menu is great, but would have preferred a few more vegetarian options. They had meat replacement options which were good, but not as many straight vegetarian dishes. Other than that, would definitely be making a turn at the restaurant again.
Id give it a solid 3 stars at best. Being from Texas, I know a thing or two about steaks. It was a good cut (a bit lean for my liking). But overly seasoned with pepper where the steak flavor felt a bit undermined.For a top notch restaurant, I was surprised with lack of presentation of the food (that onion looked sad) and no complementary bread..?Either way, the view is beautiful. Definitely a great hang out place!
Nice calamari. We had that as a starter. For our main we had the steak. Mine was perfectly done but my partners was rare instead of medium, however this issue was sorted out. Our waiter was very courteous however he made us feel a bit rushed. We ordered four pancake shooters. This is made up on three beverages. They had the ordasity to charge us a single for each shot. This is ridiculous. The waiter should have informed us of this before we ordered them.Usually my partner and I have our fair amount of shooters but due to me not feeling well we only had two each.
The day we went there I ordered their famous t bone for a good R 249, its just a piece of meat, no sides like chips. Steak was under seasoned and definitely not worth all that amount. The restaurant is chilled and has a great view but I will stick to Spurs,.
Loved this place will definitely be going back again
Food as always was superb along with great service.
Its the unique taste that makes the place memorable and good dining experience. Great customer service, always on the ball.
Food was good, vibe was good. Great waiters. Cocktails were amazing would definitely recommend the Long Island.
Steaks were good in average (my ostrich medallions were okay, my friends fillet was much better) but unfortunately the memory I have from this place is the bad service we got. The waiter couldnt be bothered to answer our questions properly and he kept a certain distance from the table which made it hard to even listen to what he was saying. We came to this place after being recommended by a local so we were expecting to have a good experience overall but thats not what happened and the food only doesnt make me want to come back.
Amazing selection. Professional and friendly service. Definitely the place for a special gift
The best steak Ive ever tasted in South Africa ! Even their fries are top notch. Cant fault them on anything
Oh my gosh its absolutely beautiful. Convinient to find . That Piazza is everything. The food is a bit pricey oh but its well worth it. We chose the Beef Platter and the Chicken platter. The steak was one of the best i have ever had. My colleagues went crazy gor the chicken sausages and the chicken strips. The service was super good and attentive. The views of North Johannesburg and Sandton.
Great location. Good food and atmosphere
Very good quality and excellent service
Great clean grill house. Nice view of Benmore at the back.
Great, fast service. Amazing food.
Steak was amazing and a beautiful environment
Its a very good restaurant with great service and even better food. Ive tried a few dishes there: mulles, pepper crusted ostrich, ostrich in Madagaskar sauce, billtong bucket, springbok carpaccio, seafood platter and malva pudding and everything was tasty. Really recommended if you are in Sandton.
The food,the service.. exceptional
It was beyond amazing, great service and the food is beyond words. Definitely the new favorite spot
Very good food and service. Reasonably priced. Had a private room for 14 of us
Upscale steak house located in Sandton Area. They serve wide range of beefs and ostrich collar.There are a lot of appetizers available as well as wine selections.The staffs are friendly and attentive, I would definitely recomend this place to friends and family
This is actually a very good place, enjoyed the patio setting
Great view from the balcony. Excellent service and food, very nice and friendly atmosphere 👌. Will definitely visit again.
The Grillhouse Sandton overall is an amazing experience. The location of the restaurant gives you a perfect view as you enjoy your meal. The presentation of the food is lovely and the prices are inexpensive compared to their competitor steakhouses located around the area.The only problem that ruined the night for me was the situation with my server. Overall, our server was not friendly or interactive. He never even told us his name. He didn’t speak much. So it was quite hard.What made it worse happened layered. We went to The Grillhouse Sandton to celebrate my husband’s birthday as he was turning 38. I had spoke to our server about bringing out something to celebrate him. He said ok after my husband finished eating. 15 mins after my husband had finished still there was nothing. There was no communication of what was going to happen and to make it more confusing the waiter came and gave us desert menus. I was so confused. Where was the special surprise.... so I found a higher up sever to help me. When our waiter finally came with a lit sparkler on a square slice of cake he just sat it on the table and walked away. There was no happy birthday, no here you are sir, congratulations, nothing. Not a word. Just say it on the table and walked away. I started laughing because my husband thought it was a desert and was trying to tel him he had brought it the wrong table. I had to tell my husband it was for him for his birthday. The biggest let down experience.Because we went to the restaurant to solely celebrate my husbands birthday and surprise him- the experience from the waiter truly ruined our evening.When it comes to the food I would give 3.5 to 4 stars but when it comes to the experience I give 1 star. That’s how bad the experience was from our waiter.
THE ONLY PLACE TO EAT IN JOHANNESBURGI cant say enough about this place. I only wish I came sooner.5 Star Service. 10 Star Quality.Perfect Meat, and ambience.Get the Ribeye and appreciate how fantastic a deal it is.
The food is divine, the restaurant ambience is great and the view is breath taking!!!
Incredible food and service! Pricey but its what you pay for such amazing food.
Great food, great service
The steak, drinks and friendly service made it thoroughly enjoyable.
We visited the grill house on 9th April our 9th anniversary.1.i called made a reservation and made sure to indicate the detail of our anniversary and the guy said he had noted. We arrived on time, 7pm. We were seated outside. Friday night is not a night to be there if you are hoping for a silent night. Its like a bar out the terrace. Friends and colleagues meeting up for a night out. So expect noises. Rather seat inside but also away from the private room which usually hosts a large group.Pros.1.We requested a heater and it was brought.2.The BREAD!!! AMAZINGGGG. I LOVED IT. It preps you just right for your meal. Soft with the best butter.. Ah.3.The waiters are on standby. The plates are cleared quickly. Service was relatively good.4.My sons beef burger was GOOD. It was a REAL Burger.And Huge! For an affordable price.5.THE VIEWS ahh.. Loved it.Cons:1.Our waiter was rather rushy rushy. We get you want to go but give recommendations. I mean how do they upsell??2. THE MEAT Nahhh. We ordered sirloin and rump and were under whelmed. We both requested medium to well done and it was EXTREMELY WELLDONE.3. The plating was as though I was going to a a fast food eatery. No plating etiquette whatsoever.. SmhThe veggies were dryyyy. The broccoli and cauli were just bland.4. OUR ANNIVERSARY wasnt acknowledged Guys! SmhGrills were under under whelming for a grillhouse cmon guyssss.
Best steak and ribs in Jozi ever!! Also size besides taste
Loved it. Classic decor, great food, service, ambience etc.
The decor was tasteful and the food met all expectations. The staff were professional and friendly.
Nice view and big space for parties and privates rooms for meetings
Cant go wrong with this place. Such quality meat
The food was awesome, totally enjoyed it.
Good food excellent ambient, good service
Lovely setting and excellent food!
So we wanted to host a BRIDAL SHOWER for my best friend and the manager was very accommodating and helpful with the preparations as well hes quite a nice guy. The place is amazing, they have the best view (I am a sucker for views). The food is to die for and the service is the best. If you looking for a place to host something for someone special I recommend THE GRILLHOUSE SANDTON honey. THE BEST!!
What a vibe! ❤️Youthful, energetic and has great music!
Good food! Good wine! Good service!
Set in the heart of Sandton, The Grillhouse is a beautiful restaurant! The pork ribs are excellent and the livers are delicious too. However, the fillet wasnt to standard and not as good as their Rosebank branch. But Id definitely go back soon.
One of the best fillet steaks I’ve had, extremely tender, well seasoned and flavoursome. Good service at the door with the manager checking everything was ok. Had a virgin pina colada which was also very good.Place was poppin even on a Wednesday night, didn’t have to wait for a lonely table of one though.Nice interior, and the restaurant sits in a small enclave of similar high end polished eateries in a flashy cluster of glass buildings.Table service was fine, could’ve been better, and the fries were mediocre, but the steak made up for all that, 300g was plenty, wish I had the 200g to try the attractive dessert menu.If you want a steak look no further
Most of the orders were either over done or under by quite a way. Calamari was burnt to a crisp. One of the orders was sent back to the kitchen. Waiters were great and atmosphere was good
Very good place. Just as good as I remember from Rosebank. Great service and great food. Also has great views and very welcoming interior.
Good food bae loves there ribs
Food here is great, and not as expensive as I thought it was going to be, would much rather come eat a quality meal here than at one of the popular restaurant chains, the food is WAY better
Great food!My wife had the Mussels and I the Sirloin with pepper sauce!Truly Amazing! Tender and full of flavour!Desert are to die for, Lindt Chocolate mousse was so delicious!Service was on point amd with smiles to go around!Will defnitly come again!
