    I will definitely visit again.. We had a baby shower had a lovely time. Food and ambience excellent ⭐ Would have appreciated an extra umbrella. We were a table of 20 and had one umbrella, we had to ask 3 times for an extra umbrella and when it eventually came it was plonked against the white wall where the christmas roses are. No shadow for us at the table. As we couldn't move it ourselves we just had to tolerate the sun. Signage on the main rd to indicate entrance to Rhebokskloof - please put up clear signage on both sides of the road to indicate where the gate is. Some of our guests where late coming from Cape Town taking the Rhebokskloof rd instead of the Rhebokskloof gate. Coming in from opposite side of Paarl, the name on gate is hidden behind shrubs

    After multiple visits to the restaurant over the years, yesterday's experience was simply shocking. The service was the worst I have experienced at any restaurant and whilst the food was "goodish" the flies literally attacked us and our food. The manager was rather indifferent to our request for a citronella candle, which in any event had seen better days. Stunning venue but in absolute disarray..... very sad

    Our selection of Tapas dishes were delicious. Magic ambiance on a Sunday under the oaks with no construction taking place. Service was efficient & friendly. Overall a most enjoyable experience.

    The Tapas was fabulous. Potato Bravas, croquettes, meatballs - all delicious. Churros good back doughy. There is still a lot of building going on and staff need training but we will be back.
