No worry. No fuss. Just an intimate dining experience where quality time unfolds effortlessly. Vl\u0101mo Restaurant & Bar brings a vibrant energy to Sandton.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nWhile there is plenty of seating (up to 230 diners), the restaurant feels intimate \u2026 it is cleverly divided into sections and subtle background music blocks out any loud chatter.
\nIt\u2019s all Mediterranean-inspired flavours and warm hospitality … created by restaurateur Mun Manal, founder of the multi-award-winning Ukk\u014d Restaurant. Vl\u0101mo brings together open-fire cooking and a lively bar culture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThe marble mixology bar makes an aesthetic statement \u2026 and a good classic cocktail is always a safe bet. But at Vl\u0101mo, the signature options are rather special and give off Summer tropical vibes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Think Peaches and Cream and a not-so-classic take on a Rum and Raspberry made with Havana rum, raspberry puree, chocolate bitters, lime juice and coconut cream. If you love wine … there are many options available, with some champers for celebrations.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nAt the heart of the menu is the chargrill, where premium aged beef, charcoal-roasted meats and fresh seafood all add that finishing touch of local flavour. Mediterranean influences run throughout, with vibrant vegetables and handmade pastas. The garlic prawn with truffle hot sauce is a good way to kick-start your meal and we were impressed by the portion of roasted lemon lamb shoulder in a rich gravy for mains.
\nGirls \u2026 when it is time to freshen up, you will feel like a real queen in the posh powder room … sitting comfortably while touching up your lipstick and fixing your hair.
\nWe also love the masculine street-facing cigar terrace \u2026 talk about a chilled experience late evening.
\nVl\u0101mo is situated in Sandton Gate, 25 Minerva Avenue and is open daily for lunch, dinner and late evening drinks.
