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.

Gourmet Guide™ Description

Dining at Cavalli is a captivating culinary experience set within an architectural masterpiece. Contemporary interiors, accentuated by glass sliding doors and expansive windows, seamlessly blend indoor elegance with the breathtaking natural beauty of the dam beyond. The open working kitchen adds another layer of intrigue; the effortless rhythm of the team, naturally dovetailing in their roles, highlights the smooth collaboration and professionalism behind the scenes.

Before your meal, indulge in a wine tasting or take a stroll through the art gallery, enhancing the overall experience. Service at Cavalli is exceptional, with Cavalli wines beautifully complementing the dishes, adding a warm, personal touch.

Cavalli shines in accommodating vegetarian diners with a thoughtfully crafted, dedicated menu. The regular menu is available as a Chef’s set or à la carte, with wine pairings.

    I felt pretty rushed (waiters kept filling our glasses) and assumed the table was required for the evening. That created some discomfort on an otherwise great Father's Day!

    It was a cold day, but the big fireplace warmed it all up. So not just a summer spot - warm and cozy in winter too.

    I absolutely recommend Cavalli. Family or business, it does not matter. The service was great and the food was amazing. All that with a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains.
