Although they have a great menu, we love the "Special menu" Ian or Lanser come to present. Food is mouthwatering, Service is great, and so is the Staff. Evenings to Lanser's always a treat, thanks to Lanser and Team.More

I had dinner here on a quiet Monday night, my last dinner in Johannesburg with the two friends I had been staying with. The restaurant is situated in a building housing mostly surgeries and alternative practitioners’ rooms, and accessible by a ramp from the car...park. The car park is locked sometimes during the evening and a security guard looks after the cars and operates the gate so it all feels very safe. Once inside the restaurant, it is well decorated, and feels very welcoming. The tables are spaced out and the acoustics are good. There is a pizza oven in one corner, apparently there are some nights you can design your own pizza for cooking. But the restaurant is much more about fine dining than pizza. The choice of wines is excellent and we had a good red wine from Springfield to start. For dinner I had two starters instead of a main course - the special porcini tartlet and the french onion soup. There are always daily specials which do not appear on the menu online. One of my friends had venison steak while the other had rump steak. These came served as requested, accompanied by crisp vegetables, beautifully prepared and both friends said they were very good. My food was excellent, particularly the porcini tartlet, very light pastry I could have eaten two!! We finished by all sharing a huge strawberry pavlova, again excellent. The service was great all the way through the meal, with the owner present in the restaurant overseeing everything. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a first class restaurant in Johannesburg.More

What an experience! Owner & Chef Lanser, hosted us Saturday night for a proper food and wine pairing evening, and Sunday Luch for a casual get together with more wine and well curated snacks. From taking Ribs and chips to the very next level, the...home baked baquettes and imported French cheeses it all came together very well and tasted amazing. By the way you can order these French baquettes from his website... I have to admit... I fell in love with the chocolate mousse. Once again an exceptional weekend! I thank Lanser and his hard working team once again for the excellent service they provide and great, flavourful meals they prepared.More
We attended a wine-tasting brunch on Sunday which was a huge success and the most fun had in ages! Excellent wines (which were in abundance!) as well as great food. Fabulous way to spend a Sunday! Well done!More
Thank you for taking the time to post your review, JaneXon While we've only had two Sunday Wine Tasting events on a Sunday, they've both been lots of fun, with tasty food, great wine, and lots of laughter. So glad you joined us. We look...More
Having visited Lanser's on Main over the past 3 years, I'm still amazed every time I visit. I've become so accustomed to their high level of service and personal touch, I've started to expect it everywhere else :-) The team at Lanser's on Main consistently...deliver on service, a great wine list, extensive food options , a level of service that's always on point, and a relaxed and chilled ambience. It's become my home away from home. It's not difficult to understand why the restaurant has been rated number 1 in Bryanston, on TripAdvisor, for the past years. Attached a few pictures of dishes that we had.More

IMPORTANT....please ensure you go to the restaurant upstairs on the first floor with white linen table cloths and a balcony as that is Lansers on main 😁 This was menu's specifically designed to be an exceptional pairing with the wines, and I decided to attend...a few dinners before I do a posting exclusively on wine pairing events! Not one single dish is ever repeated on Lanser's food and wine pairing events... just a headsup, they do sell out in about 50 minutes after it is emailed to the mailing list. So if you want to participate DEFINITELY GET ON THE MAILING LIST...or enquire when the next tasting is happening and make your booking ASAP. Apart from a food and wine pairing events, the menu is extensive and very well curated, example mussels are flown in from Ludritz fresh, and all goods are properly checked for quality before it even enters this kitchen. The chefs and owner are handson, and you're guarenteed the tastiest and freshest produce.... I bet you will absolutely become a regular after the first visit. This is absolutely, a destination restaurant, and the small team goes above and beyond to ensure your utmost enjoyment, they know the menu front to back and will also offer you wine at the correct temperature as they have wine coolers. As I said they go above and beyond to ensure your exceptional dinning experience.More

Truly disappointing food we had Pork belly pasta and was so salty that both my wife and I just could not eat it. We did not send back cause we were invited and did not wish to cause a scene. We won’t be back.More
