Good food at good prices. The service could be better. We called to book a table and we were seated in an area where there is not normally seating due to how busy it was. This was right in the walk way where people entered, so a little uncomfortable. But overall very good

First time at this particular Dros but what a lekker place. From the staff that greet you at the door to the waiter and the bus boys, everyone is so friendly and professional. The venue is to die for with multiple spaces to choose from and food prices to die for. Definitely recommend and I wish this branch all the best, definitely coming back with friends and family.

I recently visited Dros Alberton under its new management, and I must say, the changes are fantastic! The new staff is incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. Their service is attentive, friendly, and efficient — a real breath of fresh air. The food was just as delicious as always, and I could tell the new team is committed to maintaining the high standards while adding their own unique touch. It’s clear they’re passionate about giving customers a great experience. Highly recommend stopping by if you haven’t already — I’ll definitely be returning soon!

Visited Dros Redruth Alberton, and the food and atmosphere were excellent. I went there on different occasions (lunch and dinner) because the food has great flavors and a great portion size for the money. I tried the pizzas, burgers, steaks, ribs, and seafood. I highly recommend the 600g pork ribs, beef and chicken burger, red wine steak, sushi platters, seafood platter, and last the cheese grilled feast and miss piggy pizza (define flavors and filling). The service was excellent, friendly waiters, fast service, and helpful management checking up on us. It has a kids area which helps with the kids while parents can enjoy their meal or drink session. I passed another Dros (Waterkloof) to find the service and food matching my experience and taste buds by Dros Alberton.

Dear Dros Team, I wanted to take a moment to share my wonderful experience at your restaurant last night, where we celebrated a birthday. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by your friendly and welcoming staff, which set a positive tone for the evening. Our waiter was exceptionally friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. Now, let’s talk about the food—WOW! We ordered the Espatada, and it was nothing short of amazing. The meat was incredibly tender, and the crispy onion rings paired perfectly with the crunchy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside potato chips. Every bite was a delight, and it was clear that the chef put a lot of love and care into preparing our meals. I would highly recommend Dros for anyone looking for a fun family outing. Additionally, I must commend you on the cleanliness of the bathrooms; they were neat and had a pleasant smell, which is always a plus! Overall, we had a fantastic experience, and I just wanted to say well done to the entire team at Dros. Keep up the great work! JOU MA SE KOS.....
