    La Colombeat Constantia Uitsig

    Posted by Louise_ 2 November 2007

    La Colombeat Constantia Uitsig wine estate is now 50% owned by a black empowerment co-operative. The French style food at La Colombe was of a high standard – 'jalousie de langoustines' anyone? - with excellent service on a garden terrace by the vineyards. There is another restaurant (The Constantia Uitsig) overlooking the vineyards and a more informal restaurant (the River Café) in the courtyard behind the wine shop – noisy when we were there because of ‘the ladies who lunch’.

    Blues at Camps Bay

    Posted by Louise_ 2 November 2007

    Blues at Camps Bay. Cool seafood restaurant with terrace and panoramic windows overlooking the beach. Great food in a relaxed environment. Apparently it gets very busy here in season, so booking is recommended.

    Top Of The Ritz Restaurant

    Posted by gilesfly 8 September 2007

    This is the best view in The Cape. You dine on superb food while the restaurant turns at a leisurely pace giving you a view of the city from on high.

    It's 22 storeys up at the top of the Ritz hotel and looks like an alien spaceship has landed on top of the building to the casual observer. Inside it's well decorated with an open kitchen and candles on the tables.

    There is nowhere else you can get this standard for so little money (mains from 90 rand). A pianist plays while you dine which, combined with the great food and super service, makes for an unforgettable experience.

    You cant miss it. Its that building in Sea Point with the flying saucer on the top. Ritz Hotel Sea Point

    Beluga Resaurant

    Posted by asbb 16 January 2007

    Very good, very expensive restaurant. I went there for a friend's birthday- the fool ordered the eponymous Beluga caviar with a price on request written next to it - he didn't and was asked for a comedy amount when the bill came. Still the chocolate ostrich was unbelievable.

    If you have a car do not miss a trip to Franschhoek, the gourmet capital of South Africa. Enjoy a great lunch in the Cellars Restaurant after a wine tasting. Each course is accompanied by a different wine and it is a delightful experience.

    Go through the village of Franschhoek, take a right at the monument and follow the road up the pass for approximately two kilometres.

    Moya Restaurant @ Spier

    Posted by elgoober 25 September 2006

    For THE African experience, deffo do not miss out on this:

    a) Make sure you book
    b) Get a table for 8 o'clock - this is when the atmosphere hots up - arrive early for some lovely outdoor ambience - think Fri/Sat/Sun would be the be the best time to go.

    Enjoy

    If you've got a car, this restaurant is worth a detour. Absolutely fantastic - the best restaurant I've ever eaten in.

    If you're on a budget, even the bar food is out of this world.

    Franschoek is beautiful and worth seeing anyway, so book a room and stay the night.

    The Africa Cafe

    Posted by Loulie 30 September 2005

    A wonderful restaurant serving a sampler menu of delicious African food. The waiters will tell you all about what you're eating and recommend wine. And they'll cater for vegetarians.

    Cape to Cuba

    Posted by slinkymeg 30 September 2005

    Cuban restaurant by the sea. It's beautifully decorated with hand-painted chairs and tables, lots of candles and gorgeous deep colours everywhere. The staff are amazingly well informed on the food and give customer service good enough to put our restaurants to shame. They also have a very wide selection of Cuban cigars, and if you sit on the enclosed balcony section, you can watch the sea by night under fairy lights. Magical.

    Main Road in Kaulk Bay (Main Road; tel. 021/788-1566), about 1/2 hr from Cape Town, near Fish Hoek

    Willoughby's restaurant

    Posted by JessicaAldred 23 September 2005

    Willoughby's, down in the waterfront centre, is one of the best seafood restaurants I have ever been to. Melt-in-your mouth sushi, HUGE rock oysters from Namibia, the freshest fish (served in the pan with delicious potatoes) and really good paella. No booking, and really casual, it’s great for lunch and there’s no need to reserve. And it’s dirt cheap by British/European standards - you couldn’t eat like this at home.
