This was an amazing evening experience. I had read reviews and were not disappointed - really talented performers and audience participation!! The food was average, but that wasn't the reason we visited. Would highly recommend the show as a must do in the area.

If you happen to be in town on a Friday or Saturday, make sure you contact these guys and attend a show. I was very touched by this and I think it's our responsibility and tourist to uplift these communities by supporting these initiatives. A real fun outing for family & friends

The story of Black/White issues in South Africa will always be a bitter sweet drama well done by Amazink. The drive into the township for white international tourists is intimidating, the security guards looking after your car, are all erased when you enter the barred doors to the greeting of black people, and you realize colour is not the issue...

We bought the CD of the show.Still Goosebumps every time we listen to the Redemption song. What a impressive performance. And not only that song. You cannot sit still listening to the CD. What a memorable evening. All the performers were great. And also the African food was delicious. Next time when we are in Stellenbosch we will absolutely go... More

The title says it all. I can only beg you to make the effort to go and watch this show. If you don't leave there a completely different person then there must be something wrong with you. I took 2 guests there for a show and even before it had finished they had insisted that we book the next one.... More

This was absolutely great! Maybe one of our best experiences whilst visiting South Africa. We really didn't think much of Franschhoek and we really wanted to get away from the white scene (which isn't very easy we found). Searching TA we found AmaZink, great people, great ambiance, great food, great music. What are you waiting for, just go!

We (a family of Canadians) were invited by a group of local friends from Stellenbosch to see this dinner show and had no idea what to expect. We drove into Stellenbosch's Khayamandi township and entered the AmaZink building where we were immediately served drinks among a very international crowd. The dinner was very nice, typical township fare, we were told.... More

After a week in Cape Town, doing the standard awesome attractions such as shark cage diving, Cape Point and Waterfront, Amazink still stands out as the highlight of the week. This musical show is locally produced in Khayamandi, a township bordering Stellenbosch. It is an awesome initiative, and the result is spectacular - the voices and the energy will leave... More

We sponateously decided to do this at the last minute. Altough we arrived late we were made very welcome the show was breathtaking, the story moved me to tears.The vocals were fabulous. I liked the way the actors were also your waiters and that they mingled with the audience. The food and drinks were good and locally produced I was... More

Atmosphere and the initiative the 'shebeen queen' took to get us seated. Simple but delicious cuisine, local talent. This is what real business initiative is, where the owners and workers are indistinguishable.
