    Lovely gardens surrounding the wine tasting area and outdoor dining spaces, however food was disappointing and the staff not properly trained yet. Unfortunately the red wines we tasted were not kept at optimal temperatures for the South African climate and were far too warm on tasting.

    We are so excited that the restaurant at the beautiful Ridgeback Wine Estate has re-opened.! We sat outside on the deck overlooking the gorgeous (and very large) fish pond, complete with a mini waterfall (the only blemish on the tranquility was the incredibly noisy pump which drowned out the sounds of the music and bird life). I ordered the mushroom arancini as a starter and was disappointed to get the crispy artichoke instead but it was nice enough (I was too hungry to send it back at this point as we had waited quite a while). The salt and pepper squid was beautifully cooked, it just needed a bit more salt and pepper for our liking. The chicken burger was generous and delicious and the rib eye steak was superbly cooked (and an outstanding cut of meat). Other than the noisy pump, we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch experience and will be back soon!
