Majuba Bistro

"Feeling fancy? Dress up in your best outfit and bask in the ambience of the quaint French restaurant Majuba Bistro in the heart of the city. 👗 Beautifully decorated interior boasting a gorgeous bar, the restaurant is lit with a moody atmosphere. As soon as I stepped into the restaurant, I was greeted by a lovely waitress who was attentive and bright. My company and I ordered a beef carpaccio, the lamb shank main, and finished up with an affogato with frangelico (a liqueur) for dessert. Each dish was absolutely amazing, and the beef carpaccio as a starter was delicious as an entree. The lamb shank was a huge portion, and come with a very flavourful gravy and the lamb shank was perfectly tender and fell off bone. The affogato came presented in a lovely three-piece set where you pour the espresso and liqueur on top of the ice cream as you like. With the meals, I enjoyed a glass of La Vielle Ferne Rose while my company enjoyed a glass of Rockcliffe White. 🍷 The menu is on the pricier side, but if you are willing to spend a little extra, the food will be worth it and the service will be brilliant (At least on the night that I dined here). Although, I did pay a lot more than I would have liked for an additional scoop of vanilla ice cream for the affogato. The reviews boasts excellent reviews of the food and service, and I would recommend making a reservation prior to coming. I was here on a long weekend, and it was expected to be busy. I made a call for a reservation the day of and managed to get an early 5:30pm slot. 🥘 The restaurant has upstairs seating as well! Unfortunately, I did not get the chance to see what it looked like. However, the first floor of the restaurant with the bar was simply stunning. Book a table and enjoy the vibe!"
