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.

    Extremely small portions when you have the (quite expensive) menu. Thus no value for money eventhough the quality of the food is good. Rather unexperienced and uninterested staff too. Room for improvement.

    Beautiful place. Warm welcome. Would have liked either a white tablecloth or placemat on table for such an expensive restaurant. Waiter was very friendly but he was very busy between all the tables. Food was good but the main course beef was tough to eat and not medium but medium to well done. For fine dining and at that price more attention should be given to presentation and overall experience. We did enjoy the evening though.
