Situated at Athlone Circle, Elephant & Co is a must for anyone seeking aesthetically pleasing interior design for Instagram. With almost every angle of the restaurant looking amazing from the colour coordination to the choice of decor, it definitely lives up to the hype of being a coveted restaurant for IG Influencers. The staff complement were very professional, friendly and offered great insight to the menu. Elephant & Co boasts a fabulous drinks menu with something for everyone. We started our evening with Mimosas and Chicken Bao Buns which were absolutely delicious. We also ordered a Hubbly which we sat outside the restaurant and enjoyed. The Hubbly was well made, flavourful and lasted longer than expected. We finished our dinner with the Spicy Chicken pasta with penne. The pasta was absolutely delicious and I would definitely recommend checking it out. My only criticism is that the tables are a but small if you are ordering many dishes and that the menu isn't as versatile as other places especially if you do not eat beef and/or pork. That being said, our waitress was very accommodating and allowed us to remove the bacon from the pasta. All in all, we had a wonderful time and will definitely return to try out some other menu items. Highly recommend a visit!

This place has such a great ambiance and a really unique theme. The food is really delicious and they make great cappuccinos! I really enjoy their Chicken Bao Buns, and they have the best brownies in PMB. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person R 50–100 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Cheesecake

Stopped past for a quick lunch bite to eat. The menu was quite extensive with delicious sounding items with something for everyone. Being lunch I decided to have a lighter meal and ordered the halloumi salad which was delicious, despite the oily croutons. Only downside was the long walk to the ladies but I was overall quite impressed with the restaurant on my first visit to this mall. I would visit again if ever in the area.

Birthday lunch. Great service. Bougee decor.. Lunch spread was lovely. Lamb shank done well. Rubs amazing. Wings and beer battered hake was yummy. Wouldn't recommend the almond milk alternatives 😣 could also suggest kitchen to please add the lamb kebabs in tacos🙏🙏. Only wish Churros were not so deep fried - ended being to chewy🙈but still liked the cinnamon flavor. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person R 150–200 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
At first, the service was good but then as time went on, it seemed as if they had forgotten about our table. The food was just fine. I'll try and visit the restaurant again, maybe I'll have a better experience. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person R 250–300 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4
Excellent food. I thoroughly enjoyed the lamb shank. The mash was so smooth and creamy, it felt like heaven on my tongue. The vegetables were fresh and had a good crunch to it. Everything was well seasoned. It is a bit pricey, but it's worth it. I've had better cheesecakes but their baked cheesecake was still tasty. Service was exceptional. The restaurant has a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person R 450–500
An amazing manager on duty by the name of Nyaniso ( Nya), i walked into their establishment just looking for a light meal and upon not being sure on what i wished to eat. He gave an amazing meal option for me to try and it was very palatable - at all times while at the establishment the staff kept checking up on me if i required anything. the service was beautiful i really enjoyed my stay . Thank you for a great friday afternoon. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
