Lisa's Resturant - Kensington

Fantastic food, fantastic service and easy to book. I attended a friend's birthday here on 31 December 2018. I tried to organise my own party for 24/02 , had to pay a deposit of R500 for 12 people or more. I had to cancel unfortunately and Steve got back to me ASAP to aquire my banking details for a refund. Incredible and sad I couldnt get 12 or more friends to attend in the end as I was looking forward to the fab time Steve promised as well as the fab food. Vegetarian options even and the best onion rings ever. Karin Moore

Popped in for a coffee and chilled on the couches in the corner on a gloomy Saturday morning. Our waitress was friendly and the atmosphere relaxing. There are a few tables inside and a huge play area outside which is great for the kiddies.

I'm a huge fan of Lisa's. It's great having a delicious little spot like this right up the street and having the Stodel's as the backdrop is great too. The food is delicious, the staff are friendly, and the atmosphere is relaxed. My husband and I often make this our morning breakfast spot on the weekend.

Stodel’s was on the shopping list of Paternoster friends with whom we were meeting up and the obvious choice – and the right one, as it turned out.<br/ <br/ Toasted saamies, a chicken salad (loads of meat), a ‘burger and for me a Vooma (V) were the selection and Cristina made sure the cappuccinos were piping hot (so many outlets can’t get this spot-on).<br/ <br/ My “two slices of 100% rye bread, greens, cocktail tomatoes, Halloumi, basil pesto and two poached eggs” came exactly as described. Owner Ryan (see pic of him holding up a quirky squeeze bottle of peri-peri sauce) came round to enquire “Was everything OK?” and when I mentioned my eggs weren’t soft as ordered he promptly wanted to remove my place and replace, but I assured him my comment wasn’t criticism per se and thanked him for his quick intervention. So often one gets a wishy-washy, disinterested reaction.<br/ <br/ Talking of wishy-washy: a bonus to a good outing was a sudden, albeit short, downpour.<br/ <br/ With free WiFi I was able to catch up on social gossip in between appointments.<br/ <br/ Definitely an excellent halfway meeting up point with friends.

Very quiet restaurant. The food was okay...loved the coffee. Overall average experience of the restaurant. Staff was okay as well. I think I'd only go back for the serenity.
