What User doesn't like about John Dory's Hartbeespoort Dam:
was very disappointed, we ordered a filter coffee and it looked out and tasted like hard beespoorts dammwasser. Then came the garnel and it tasted like the dammwasser, as it cooked in water and not fried a little in butter. View all feedback. What User likes about John Dory's Hartbeespoort Dam:
I finally had the time to eat there and wow, it was amazing. the hake and chips were a good value for money and delicious. my family and I got two pieces of crispy broken hake with chips from which you could not get enough. we got the peppermint refrigerator and the portion was good for two, as we divided two portions. thanks young for the great service and good food. we'll see you again.

Dining at John Dory’s seems to evoke strong reactions, ranging from disappointment to delight. While some guests lamented cold meals, rubbery prawns, and poor service, others enjoyed fresh sushi and attentive staff. Highlights included delectable oysters and a prawn halloumi salad praised for exceeding expectations. However, issues like unwelcoming staff and inadequate food portions marred the experience for many. Despite some glowing testimonials, the inconsistency in food quality and service has left a cloud of uncertainty hanging over this popular seafood spot. Overall, diners are left divided as they reflect on their visits.
