Tramonto Restaurant

Not too sure of what kind of food they list themselves as having. They have steaks, ribs, oxtail varied types of foods. It is also a boutique hotel.

Reviewed By sharronb959 - Johannesburg, South Africa

We decided before a four day Wilderness walk in the imfolozi game reserve we would stop at Newcastle to have a night of luxury and spoiling, as Tramonto looked unbeatable in the town I decided to pay the 1750 per nite for the room. Called to book even, asking the restaurants open times, I'm never normally that organized, but I just wanted to have a non hassle easy top meal and bed.
We arrive, to a standard bank full house function.... no room in the restaurant "sorry", had u not known this 24hours beforehand to let me know that I'd have to trawl Newcastle to eat??
Not impressed!!! We were shown to our room by the GM apparently, who apologized for this oversight and he would make a table up elsewhere, or we could order room service..... either way... we are still waiting for the thoughtful menu.
Trawled around Newcastle and found "food garden" we just wanted a good curry and that's what we got...
Returned to our luxury room for eve.
Morning meal was awsum food as expected, GM says "oh but u didn't ask for a menu last nite, u just needed to phone"....
Really? For r1750 for the room, I need to phone you?
Pity, the room was well appointed, the experience wasn't what I paid for tho....
so just remember to ASK if they have functions on, that you will be forgotten over!!!!

The Cannon

Reviewed By Gerty O - Johannesburg, South Africa

I spent two nights at the cannon and now know why even the Inn will rather house me next time. The pub is extremely cosy and well frequented late at night. On a few occasions many items are damaged and found in the parking area. After my last stay I found a pocket knife and lighter next to my car.
The fight must have been a good one. I heard it and rather stayed in my room.
Depending on how physical you are maybe move past this one.

Reviewed By Suvesha R

I visited Nashville Spur yesterday with my son.... The waitress took a while to take my order....The table and floor were dirty... When our drinks arrived, the waitress just threw wet straws next to our drinks as she had dropped a bit of my son's cooldrink in the tray whilst serving us.... When I asked for a take away, the waitress who took my bowl to the kitchen put her hand in my bowl and she picked up some food which she stuffed in her mouth...she then liked her fingers whilst walking away... another waitress ate something at the till point near the play area in full view of people around... This kind of service is a poor reflection on Spur...

Nando's

Experience a truly South African dining experience at Nando's in Newcastle. Our flame-grilled PERi-PERi chicken restaurants are world famous for their succulent, grilled to perfection, butterfly-cut chickens. Add spice to your life with a meal from our Portuguese style menu. We've set the eating experience on fire and we can't wait for you to join our table because if there's one thing we love as much as PERi-PERi, it's lots of people to enjoy it with!

We love the brand and this particular outlet. Until recently. Orders are wrong and our corn was still frozen in the middle. When we complain, they said IT was not MICROWAVED long enough!!! and we were under the impression if was FRESH!!! Such a disappointment

Mid City Grill

Reviewed By GfamilyDS - Durban, South Africa

Not many eating options in town so this was recommended. The restaurant in the casino complex is attached to the hotel and caters for those residents. No ambience, bright lights, average service and ordinary food. Nothing special to bring one back.
