"Carne SA is unapologetically about meat, meat, and more meat! Every cut of beef, lamb, or venison will be paraded in front of you with pride before it's cooked to perfection. Most of the meat comes from the Nieu Bethesda farm of owner/chef Giorgio Nava (whose Italian background accounts for the Milanese touch in many of the dishes). Even though there are now three spots in the city , the original, on the Keerom Street cul-de-sac remains a favorite."

It’s a shame that 5 stars is the max, because this place deserves 10! From the moment we walked in, we felt at home. The service was amazing, attentive and the presentation of meats was a lovely touch! The food… not sure where to even begin! Beautiful presentation, generous portions and incredible flavor! We spent our last evening in South Africa here, and we couldn’t have imagined a better meal! We hope to make many more trips down to South Africa, and we wish all to include a meal here!

Great restaurant! We had an excellent dinner here. We didn’t have a reservation but were offered a table immediately. The service was friendly and knowledgeable. The food was extremely good, especially the steak.

Another great dinner at Carne in Keerom Street. We were a group of 9 people and only phoned an hour before to make a reservation. They were happy to accept us and here we go. The meat choices were incredible and cooked to perfection. It’s nice to see that some restaurants survive the time of change and keep on doing what they do best - getting amazing quality of meat and cook to perfection. Carne in Keerom is one of the few that is doing just that and is doing it brilliantly. If you are really in for an amazing piece of meat, this is the place to go! Good service too… We felt a funny smell coz we were seated in the cellar, maybe an AC problem that only occurred that evening. It’s not cheap but it’s definitely worth it. Well done, Carne team!

Saw this on the TV show "Somebody Feed Phil." It did not disappoint! The wild game steaks were fantastic and there was vegetarian options for my partner. The wait staff were attentive and accommodating. A great meal from start to finish!

Went there to celebrate a friend Bday, service was good, food was nice, atmosphere was lovely, what else you need? Not too fancy, great choice of meat, perfect for meat lovers. Last time I had dinner here was 8 years ago and nothing has changed. Still very enjoyable. I definitely recommend it if you love your meat 🥩

Made a point to visit Carne on Keerom St during my recent visit to Cape Town after watching "Someone Feed Phil" on Netflix, and... Oh boy - it did not dissapoint! In fact, steaks were so great, that not only I've returned here after after about 10 days but in the meantime also visited the Kloof St. Branch. Amazing.

This restaurant was recommended to us by a friend. Wow! The ultimate carnivore paradise! Excellent quality meat shown to you by your waiter on a large plate. Make your choice, and it is grilled to perfection. We chose the T Bone in the Firenze style.. melt in your mouth delicious. Their wine list is equally impressive.. and not to forget the excellent desserts. The decor and ambiance complete a wonderful experience. We will return!!!

Terrific meat restaurant! Very nice ambiance. And they bring various cuts of meat to your table so you can select what you want. All sorts of cuts of beef, lamb, and game animals. I had the wagyu and my wife had the rib eye. Both cooked to perfect medium rare. And unlike other steak restaurants in Cape Town they just cook it with salt, pepper, and olive oil. No sugary bastes or coatings. Delicious.
