Social

Windhoek


A relative newcomer to the Windhoek dining scene, Social already has a loyal following for its contemporary setting and great food – we enjoyed the steak tartare and oryx loin, but we left longing to try the guinea fowl linguine... Service is friendly and they get the mix of classy and casual without seeming to try too hard.
