We are fiercely passionate about supporting local producers and artisans, thus keeping the restaurant’s carbon footprint to a minimum, and improving self-sustainability at the restaurant. Micro gardens have been established throughout our property, which will produce a rotating supply of fresh herbs and vegetables.

With flavour, enjoyment and value at the top of his list, the new dishes offer freshness, creativity, and generosity, but without compromising on technique or elegance.

The lunch and dinner menu are designed to invite diners to customise their Monneaux Restaurant experience with a wide selection of starters and mains, as well as lighter “snack style” dishes. Guests can opt to share a few snacks and starters over casual drinks, select just a starter or main course for a quick meal, or choose a more traditional flow of starters and mains for an unhasty, exceptional lunch or dinner.

Monneaux Restaurant’s variety of beautiful seating areas lend themselves seamlessly to suit all preferences. The outdoor fountain terrace, beneath the dappled shade of a spreading pepper tree, is ideal for lazy summer lunches and sundowners, and al fresco dinners beneath twinkling fairy lights on balmy evenings. The restaurant’s stylish interior is discretely divided into three individual dining rooms, creating an intimate atmosphere.

For those choosing to linger longer and immerse themselves in the Franschhoek valley, the five star Franschhoek Country House & Villas offers luxuriously appointed rooms and suites set within the property’s exquisite country-style gardens. Complimentary offerings for hotel guests include daily breakfast, afternoon drinks, exclusive use of the hotel’s two swimming pools, air-conditioned shuttle transfers around the village and use of the Franschhoek Health Club’s facilities.

    We had - starters Tomato salad and mushroom ravioli - both excellent. Main course - Squid ink pasta with shrimps and pork shoulder - both well cooked, great tastes and highly recommended. Desserts - Crepe with orange and marinaded strawberries with meringue and ice cream - both perfection.

    A sharing cheese board for starter was delicious. The tastes all went well together. My husband’s shoulder of pork wasn’t so good he is having it again tonight. My steak was tasty and cooked to perfection. We were too full to try the desserts.

    Food was the let down. The steak was first overcooked and then very tough. Location was good and ambience was pleasant. Service was good

    We were disappointed in our starter which was artichokes in supposedly a Gruyère cheese sauce but it tasted more like humous. My main dish was the line fish (cod) and my husband’s was the meat, both of which were excellent and the vegetables were also cooked to perfection
