    Absolutely phenomenal experience. Absolutely loved it. Gorgeous venue, so relaxing and beautiful. I loved how the dishes were explained as the evening went on. The owners are fantastic and the service staff were attentive and super welcoming. My new favourite place.

    What a wonderful lunch. I felt as though I was on holiday somewhere far away from home, even though I live round the corner in Franschhoek, and everything about the meal was unique. It’s hearty and delicious food that is full of unusual flavours. The atmosphere is relaxed and charming, family friendly and perfect for long lunches with friends. The staff are friendly and welcoming and very attentive. I can’t wait to be back.
