Enjoy our contemporary Cape Town cuisine, designed to complement our range of De Grendel wines (available at cellar door prices from De Grendel Restaurant).

Our menu is based on classic, locally sourced ingredients, served in creative flavour combinations and served with a an inventive, modern edge.

The simple menu changes every day according to availability of ingredients.

Farm produce, from honey and yoghurt to guinea fowl and pasture-raised beef and lamb; organic vegetables, such as kohlrabi and Jerusalem artichokes.

Youll also find some new dishes never before seen on a local menu like Brandy & Coke ice-cream, liquid popcorn and more.

We like to surprise our guests, thats why youll find that our menu lists only the ingredients with no indication of how your meal will be prepared or which ingredients dominate (of course, if you ask, well gladly tell you more).

    Between the waiters and the maitre d, they forgot to bring my wife her birthday plate and her flowers. There is a reason we are regulars, and have 2 accounts at DeGrendal. We love the view, we love the wine and champagne, we enjoy the ambiance and have experienced great service in the past. Unfortunately, with Wednesdays experience, we won't be returning any time soon.

    Bouillabaisse as a main was a piece of fish with some extras, no broth. Restaurant is far too loud. Service and wines are excellent.

    Amazing views! Sat outside with cool breeze. Prix fixe meal with two courses. Good portions and great flavours and textures. Wait staff attentive but not too, which we appreciated. Great place for a special occasion
