Cavallis Everyday Gourmet menu is all about celebrating real food that nourishes and excites.

Putting a contemporary, inventive spin on classic dishes, we grow our own seasonal herbs and have many vegetable varieties grown from seed and cuttings. As the first Green-star rated restaurant in South Africa, we treasure the beauty of our natural heritage.

We simply believe in eating delicious, fresh, whole foods prepared in a way that honours the seasons. We want our food to be the kind that people enjoy not just once but again and again, the type of food that people come back for.

    Our picnic was excellent. The layout of the umbrella, the blanket, the chairs, and the picnic basket was inviting and beautifully prepared. A wide variety of snacks and food was available and very tasteful. The view was awesome and the service was professional and friendly. It was worth every second

    Absolutely stunning location but of our six-course menu, only the 2 seafood dishes were very good, everything else was decidedly average. The lack of energy and passion in the kitchen definitely ended up on the plate.

    The food was excellent. Unfortunately even with a starter,a maincourse and a dessert we were not completely satisfied. Value for money could be much better
