What People Are Saying…
“An absolutely awesome experience! True South African food and hospitality! My new favourite restaurant. Can’t wait to go back!”
— Paula Leahy
“Excellent service and recommendations. Food and wine were great and both were a novelty as South African themed. Therefore some delicious spiced chicken and a very tender ostrich steak. Desserts were a very pleasant surprise. Highly recommend.”
— Paolo Zaniboni
“Lovely group dinner at Vivat Bacchus in Farringdon. Fortunate to have one of the private dining rooms, which was lovely and perfect for our group of 18.
Food and service were both excellent, with wine flowing as needed. Big shout out to Anna for looking after us, and thanks also to Ryan for help with booking.”
