We had a really nice & exotic meal.  Never tried before an African meal, it was better than expected.

I really liked the ribs, they were juicy and full of flavour.

I personally recommend to skip the salads, having this variety of meat makes them not worth it.

Service was also excellent, not a bad thing to say.

We visited palma city on Saturday for a days tour 29/6/2024  before we headed back to the uk!

We had a fantastic day in the city and were very hungry and headed to The Crows Nest as I’ve seen great reviews!

The menu was packed with a variety of South African dishes! We all had starters and a main dish and the food was fantastic out of this world. Would highly recommend this restaurant if you’re in Palma city.

Family run restaurant, Estelle and Dave are really nice hosts. Good, authentic South-African food. Specially the Bobotie, the Durban Curry and the Lamb shank are highly recommendable. But also the Desserts such as Malva Pudding and Amarula Cheesecake are really delightful. Over all: for guests who never been to South-Africa before a good place to get an idea of South-African kitchen, for all, who have been to South-Africa already, a good place to cherish the memories.
