Mack PrioleauSeptember 14, 2015I had mussels and a steak and will definitely go back. Worth a trip if you can get in and sit at a regular table, but if you are sitting in the bar you are looking at a very long dinner.
One of my favorite restaurants in Cape Town for a summer dinner. The mushroom risotto is a must, probably the best I've ever had in my life.
Leslye Van WageningenJanuary 28, 2016Best service I have ever had. The food is amazing, I tried the pasta with prawns and garlic. My friends take the pasta with lamb, amazing too. Highly recommended in Cape Town
Maha K.BJanuary 15, 2016My husband ordered the grilled prawn with garlic and it was super yummy. I ordered the mushroom, the risotto was a little hard so I don't know is it like that all the time or we ordered very late.
Ceilidh SimpsonSeptember 16, 2015Chocolate nemesis - a dark, flourless torte - a delicious wheat free option! Pumpkin risotto also very yummy, quite cheesy & rich, great, just not quite what I was expecting.- Barry GreenFebruary 21, 2023Super asonal salad and mushroom rosottio were amazing, Kudo was nice but not as gamey as I was expecting. Service was top class and atmosphere was really congeneial to a nice meal
LekkeryogaJune 4, 2014Vegan curry with quinoa, wow!!!! Chocolate nemesis, double wow!!!!! What a place. Great service, great food, value for money! Two thumbs up 👍- Barry GreenFebruary 21, 2023Avo on toast, egg and flat white plus eggs benedict with salmon. Super tasty and super cool vibe.
Frank S.January 16, 2011HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! great food, terrific staff. Can't be better. The mushroom risotto was the best I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying, and the venison was just pure honey. Will be back!
Juliet CastilloOctober 1, 2014Mushroom risotto is very nice. Service is excellent and the waiters are very well versed with how the dishes are prepared.- kelltrillDecember 29, 2010A bit pricey but not exorbitantly so. Great ostrich burgers and cozy bar area. Excellent and varied daily specials in all sections, from starters through to desserts (MUST ask for prices).
- Maha K.BJanuary 15, 2016You MUST have the clchocliate dessert. It's to die for. If you are full take it for to go and eat it later.
Ayah AlfawarisNovember 17, 2014The had pumpkin kuskus salad. Oh em gee. Ostrich burger is average. Pumpkin risotto was so good.
Jack KirbyJanuary 18, 2020Prawns were amazing. Service was great. Loved the Artichoke Soup! Romantic setting.
Andre HauptfleischSeptember 1, 2012The bar is one of Cape Town's hidden gems. It's a perfect spot to have a few drinks and chillout with friends in winter.
Fathima DadaOctober 26, 2014Love this place! Neighborhood vibe, good food, great service, open late, fairly priced.
ᴡ HindsNovember 28, 2015Prepare to spend 4 to 5 hours going through your courses. Have wine with each. Risotto is a must
South Hill rose [top quality one] only costs you R48 per bottle and it is 100% great. Enjoyed on the terrace outside last week.
Dominic AdelbertNovember 12, 2011Jack Black Pale Ale is delicious! Kristoff is running a fine shop here!
french tour s starting in 2 weeks at societi b. cant wait. Mussels wil b on menu, the rest is top secret.
Charl ZeroApril 19, 2011Great mushroom risotto. Avontuur chenin was surprisingly smokey but palatable.
Jake AndrewJanuary 4, 2017Amateur hour, yet yummy. Inedible venison! Great mushroom risotto. No kitchen-waiter comms! Offers often unavailable 🙄! CDisasters weren't charged, so presumably unusual. Funny fiasco!
- DominiqueJune 9, 2010Best value wine prices...R23 for a glass of Waterford SB, R40 average at other spots.
Priscila AndradeFebruary 14, 2017Lugar interessante com cardápio de massas e carnes. Comidas requintadas. Atendimento bom.
