Durban Restaurants That Give You More Bang For Your Buck
Seeing that we got such a good response from our readers regarding places to visit in Durban, we thought that we could do a 2020 update for all you foodies.
Payday has come and everyone is finally feeling some relief after the long month of January. To make sure that you don’t find yourself penniless in February, we have put together a list of restaurant specials that will give you more bang for your buck.
Big Easy Winebar & Grill Durban
The Best way to get over a Blue Monday
To start your week off on a good note, why not head out with some friends and family? No one wants to cook after a long day at the office, so give yourself a well-deserved break.
- If you are a pizza or pasta fan, we have two amazing options for you to choose from. La Bella Trattoria, a quaint restaurant in Essenwood, has 30% off pizza and pasta after 5pm.
- Alternatively, if you are on the lookout for something more familiar, then Mimmos offers two large classic pizzas or pastas for R139.
- Not in the mood for Italian food? How about a gourmet burger, chips and a draft beer for only R135? If that tickles your fancy then head over to Ernie Els’ restaurant called Big Easy, located near the Hilton Hotel in Durban. The combination of great food, friendly service, and a relaxed atmosphere makes this restaurant must-see, without breaking the bank of course.
The Best Way to Start Your Weekend
- On the Fridays that you finish work early, you should be able to catch the lunch special at Olive & Oil. It consists of a two-course meal and a complimentary beverage for only R149.95. So, grab a few mates and head over for a relaxed afternoon with some great food.
- Also, besides their daily ‘Unreal’ breakfast special, Spur has a few good dinner deals throughout the week. One of which is their new Fire & Nice special which consists of a 200g rump or sirloin steak, with chips and onion rings for only R89.
- However, when you work late and don’t get a chance to start your weekend on Friday you can always kick things off on Saturday. Weekends are the perfect time to get out and grab a bite so why not try Butcher Block’s ‘Feed the Beast’ special. There are 5 delicious meals to choose from and you also get a free glass of wine for only R89. Definitely worth the visit for all you carnivores.
- For something a little lighter than steak, coupled with the atmosphere we have all come to love about café’s, Café Italia’s lunch special is perfect for you. It includes a three-course meal and a glass of wine for only R140. The perfect combination for a relaxing weekend.
The Best Places to Find a Sunday Lunch
Billy G at Suncoast Casino and Entertainment World
Love the feeling of having friends and family around you for Sunday lunch, without all the dishes that come with cooking? Then these options are for you.
- Atasca has a family platter that they size according to the number of people that you have with you for lunch. And, it only costs R75 per person, which is a steal. The platter consists of Portuguese-style chicken and prawns, served with sides of rice, chips and fresh Portuguese rolls.
- Although, if the traditional Sunday roast is what you are after, then we have the perfect fit for you. Billy G at Suncoast Casino offers a comprehensive buffet for only R199 per person. It includes multiple starters, mains, and desserts for all palettes to give you the perfect Sunday lunch experience.
- Portuguese food and traditional roasts aren’t everyone’s cup of tea so, you could always opt for the all-you-can-eat sushi buffet at Taco Zulu, for R159.
Regardless of which place you choose to visit, we suggest that you get there hungry!
