    La Sosta Restaurant

    Posted by darklight03 12 February 2010

    We had an absolutely fantastic meal here, and certainly the best we had in our month in South Africa. It is an Italian restaurant but with a South African twist (I tried Gemsbok).
    During the summer there are tables outside, but as we were there during the winter they had a roaring open fire.
    It is really popular with the locals but is quite a small place so we recommend booking before you go.
    The prices were very reasonable, working out to be about £10 for a main course when we went during August 2009. There were a couple of a couple of different pasta dishes avaiable but we tried the Gemsgok which was just beautiful.
    The staff were brilliant - attentive and friendly but not too pushy. They were enthusiastic about explaining the food they had on the menu.
    They also have accommodation available, although we didn't stay there so can't comment.
    Swellendam is a two hour drive from Cape Town.

    145 Voortrek Street, Swellendam 6740, South Africa (Along the main street)
