Located on Buitenverwachting Wine Estate in Constantia, Beyond is a sophisticated restaurant where provenance, seasonality, and the origins of flavour are the foundation. The kitchen is led by Executive Chef Sebastian Stehr with guidance from FYN Group's chefs Peter Tempelhoff and Ashley Moss. The menu honours ingredients native to the Western Cape - sourced from the restaurant's indigenous garden, foraged from the nearby coast, and supplied by local producers - drawing on ancient ingredients, age-old traditions, and a deep connection to place and flavour.

The beverage programme follows the same philosophy. Wines from Buitenverwachting express the character of the estate's soils and vineyards, while the cocktail and non-alcoholic pairings incorporate indigenous ingredients alongside garden-grown herbs, house-made infusions, fermentations, and tinctures. The programme is led by FYN Group Sommelier and Beverage Director, Jennifer Hugé, recipient of the Eat Out Guide Patron Mixology Award.
The dining room looks out over the rolling vineyards through floor-to-ceiling windows, with the warmth of a fireplace lending an elegant yet relaxed atmosphere.

Beyond currently holds two Eat Out stars, two JHP Gourmet Guide plates and is listed on The World's 50 Best Discovery. Lunch is available Tuesday to Sunday, dinner Tuesday to Saturday.

Guests are welcome to enjoy cocktails in the lounge area of the restaurant.

Gourmet Guide™ Description

The setting at Buitenverwachting wine estate in Constantia is resplendent, but it’s the story behind the plate that sets this restaurant apart. Don’t be surprised if a new dish is offered for you to try; in the background, there is always innovative and exploratory cooking… Chefs Peter Tempelhoff and Sebastian Stehr are pioneers, and their current discovery is centred on ancient ingredients. The newly planted garden on the estate is set to bring a different dimension to the menu. A move from set menus to à la carte makes unforgettable lunches with a vineyard vista even more appealing, but their unique ‘Origins’ menu truly takes the cake.

Dishes are thought-provoking yet finely balanced. The pan-roasted Cape fish with aromatic dhal, saffron-coconut labneh, sultana and turmeric gel, mussel bhaji, fenugreek and coriander velouté is a prime example of how they marry responsible sourcing with sterling flavours to produce something memorable. The Thai chicken dumplings with nam prik pao, makrut lime oil, pan-seared prawn, snow pea and charred baby corn salad, and the most sublime coconut lemongrass broth exhibit the chef’s penchant for umami. The slow-cooked free-range pork with ginger-sweet potato fondant, wilted mustard leaf, turnip and pear with an anise jus is one of those dishes that keeps everyone sated.

    There is a huge issue with my bill and I only realized today when looking at it, we choose the R750 option of the 4 dishes (Spring 4 Course) and I’ve been charged for the R850 option. Please can someone contact me urgently.
