    The setting is lovely, we started with drinks by the pool. The new restaurant is attractive. Whilst beautifully presented, we unfortunately found our food as a whole pretty disappointing. Both the quail starter and the fish and prawn mains were overcooked. The tuna tartare was delicious though! The staff are friendly and attentive.

    Was good to experience the new Cape Grace restaurant. I’ve stayed and dined there around 2012 and 2015.
