Had a wonderful lunch yesterday. The sushi was incredible. So fresh and very tasty! I highly recommend the wasabi parcels! Our server made us feel at home and joined in with our jokes. Great food, lovely wine, an amazing view and good company made for...a super day. If you like sushi and want to enjoy it in a very friendly spot, this is the place for you!More

A great spot to visit !

A warm hospitable spot with great food overlooking the beach. Their menu offers a wide variety of dishes to cater for every taste. Prices are reasonable. Service is great and with a friendly smile too.

Nice view, shame about the food

When we originally went to Thoban a few years ago, we loved it. It was a different type of restaurant for Langebaan and served really good food. We have been back a couple of times when visiting from the UK, but this time was really...not up to scratch. My husband had a Thai curry which was more like a soup than a curry and not very good and far too hot despite being told that they could make it mild. I had the steak and prawns. The prawns were nice but the steak was charred on the outside and tasteless. What has happend to South African steak? Trying to get a good flavoured one seems to be nigh on impossible which is ridiculous considering that this is a huge meat eating country. The only good thing to say is that we had a delightful waitress, but we will not be back for a second visit.More

Dine with a view

Friendly service, awesome cocktails at a very reasonable price and delicious food. I had the poke bowl on more than one occasion and it never disappointed my husband had the platter for one and the thai red curry. All the disches are generous portions for...healthy appetites at very good rates. The waiters are very friendly without being overbearing and good at suggestions to get everyone exactly what they want. Food is freshly prepared and well presented.More

Generous sushi

The venue, bathrooms and ocean views were spectacular! We were advised of the generous sushi by our guest house manager and our experience was nothing less. The sushi rice was a bit acidic, like someone overdid the sushi vinegar a bit. It was still really...great sushi though, definitely recommending it. Sadly, the same sushi rice was served with my husband's thai chicken and prawn curry? We asked our waiter who asked the chef about it but was told this is how they serve this meal? We have always had jasmine or basmati rice with curries so this was a bit disappointing - and especially because it was a bit overkill on the vinegar.More

Excellent cuisine

We had an amazing evening at Thoban. Although there were just a few vegetarian options they were very well prepared and we thoroughly enjoyed them. Veg chow mein was excellent as was the sushi.

Honestly such a delightful experience in terms of location and the quality of the food was 10/10. I never write Trip Advisor reviews but this really merited it. Honestly encourage people to come out and support this business, the cooks put so much energy and...love into the food, you can taste it!!! And the deserts - oh my soul. The waffles and crème brûlée were incredible.More
