The only Beachfront restaurant in Knysna.

Butterfly Blu is perched on a dune top with beautiful panoramic sea views making it one of the most idyllic restaurants in Knysna with beautiful food, an outdoor/indoor deck, lounge areas, cocktail bar, and a contemporary interior. Directly below the restaurant is beautiful stretch of white sandy beach and rolling dunes covered with lush fynbos for which this part of the world is so famous. The setting is perfect to enjoy a rosy sunset after a stroll on the beach.

Everything is made fresh in house under the watchful eye of chefs who have honed their skills for more than 25 years in various inspirational kitchens in Northern Europe. Suppliers are carefully selected based on their beliefs in sourcing/rearing, produce/animals, in a time-honoured natural way, free from chemicals and unnatural additives.

    The food was delicious, but unfortunately it was very cold in the restaurant. The waitress assigned to us was unfriendly and unaccommodating.

    Service very slow when we arrived. Had to ask for champagne glasses. Steak meal arrived with cold plates, cold steak and cooked medium not rare. But the most disappointing thing was the behavior of two children in the next table who were loud, undisciplined and the staff did nothing to stop this spoiling other diners meals. A disappointing evening for our guests celebrating their anniversary
