Craddled by the folds of the Table Mountain National Park and sheltered by towering oaks and whispering stone pines, The Lawns nestles against the rump of the Table Mountain National Park. With views out across the Atlantic Ocean and the mountain peaks known as the Twelve Apostles, while high above cable cars whisk tourists to the top of Cape Towns iconic mountain. The Lawns is a relaxed all-day affair, with an array of outdoor spaces that take full advantage of this dramatic mountainside location.

    The pizzas looked delicious, but the sushi was slightly disappointing. Excellent service and seating on lawn one would have been preferable.

    Eggs were cold when served. No salt & pepper on the tables but otherwise lovely.

    Wonderful venue with beautiful views. Most of the dishes we ordered had more spice than we would have liked, but otherwise not bad. Every single piece of crockery on the table had numerous chips and cracks and looked like it had seen better days. For a menu with pricing on the upper side of average, I would at least expect to have a coffee cup that does not have 3 large chips on the rim.

    Back here after 6 years, it used to be spectacular place with magnificent views - both aspects now very average but quite an expensive place. Still enjoyed ourselves.

    The hostess at the front podium was extremely rude and condensing to a few of our guests as well as to our supplier bringing in the Halal meals. Her attitude and communication are not someone I would want as the face of such an amazing restaurant.

    I was so disappointed of the service and food and cocktails nothing I enjoyed other than the view, and now I think the lawns is overrated and you really need to work on your service because it wasn’t going with the place theme at all!
