This place is awesome. Went for a family breakfast. The breakfast was really affordable and absolutely yummy. I paid R45 for my breakfast which included , 1 slice of toast, 2 eggs, fries and tomatoe. You can choose from 3 options either bacon, mushroom or chicken bites and add this to your breakfast.
Milkshakes were around R38 each. Absolutely yummy. Best milkshake ever.
Service was amazing . We overall had a great time and enjoyed the breakfast. For bonus points, there is a lovely play area for kids. Will definitely recommend.

I recently dined at 1 On Palm, located outside the Gateway Mall, and the restaurant's ambiance immediately caught my attention. The classy and elegant setup, with a modern and chic design, created a sophisticated dining atmosphere.
However, the experience did have a few drawbacks. The service was a bit slow, which was a minor inconvenience. The meals, unfortunately, were rather mediocre in quality. While the pricing was reasonable, my 200g sirloin steak with spinach and butternut didn't quite meet expectations. I had ordered it cooked to medium, but it was served closer to medium-well, which was a disappointment.
Despite these shortcomings, one positive aspect was the restaurant's willingness to accommodate patrons who wanted to work there for a few hours. This flexibility added to the convenience of the dining experience.
In summary, 1 On Palm offers an attractive and elegant setting but falls short in terms of food quality and service speed. While the prices were fair, the dining experience could benefit from improvement in these areas. It's an okay restaurant option, particularly if you're looking for a place to work for a few hours, but there may be better dining choices for a more satisfying meal.

The service I received was not that amazing. It took the waiter around 20min to take my order. The food took long to come, and when it did my main meal came before the starters.
The crumb mushrooms I ordered for starters came when I was just about to be done with my main meal.
The Coke ordered had no gas and was warm.
The chips that came with the main meals were really bad.
The breakfast ordered was average, could have definitely been better.
The passion fruit cordial was the only good thing about my experience.
The restaurant does have a chill vibe to it but with the bad service and average food, my experience was barely a 2 star.

Tried 1 on Palm for the first time on 14/10/2023 and we received great service from Thamie. The food was absolutely Delish, we tried the prawns and rice and the 300g rump which was on special and recommended by Thamie. The atmosphere is great and the restaurant is aesthetically pleasing. Will definitely be back.

I had hake and prawns with a side of chips. Absolutely delicious. My partner ordered a banana milkshake, to my surprise it tasted heavenly. The most delicious milkshake I’ve had. The ribs were also very nice. Special shout out to Mpume who made my partner’s birthday special

I was lucky enough to be served by Fifi who was such an amazing host. She got me to stay longer than I had planned. Simphiwe served me the best margaritas I have ever tasted. The staff is so friendly, I felt at home.

Really laid back atmosphere & great service from PK. He was absolutely amazing! I ordered the cheesy prawn tails & my meal was okay, could have been more flavorful though. My partner had the livers which were quite spicy but also okay. My cocktail (cosmopolitan) was yum!! The food could have been better but overall we had a good experience.

I came across this establishment, and breakfast special caught my eye. I mean, who doesn't like a great deal now and then. So I paid them a visit the following day to feast on some eggs. Our eggs were scrambled just to our liking. This breakfast special is definitely value for your ching. The atmosphere is chilled and laid back. Will sure visit again to explore their menu offering.

We went for dinner to 1 on palm this evening. From the moment we sat down, the service was amazing. Food and drinks were excellent. You got what u ordered and more. Having a good, helpful waiter really does make a huge difference to dining out. So if you heading out, give 1 on Palm a try. You won't be disappointed💜
