We've enjoyed a number of meals here and the food is consistently of a high quality. Sitting outside, dressed appropriately, is lovely. Inside... well, there are countless flies that appear as soon as any meaty dish is brought to the table. The noise from the 'music' is deafening and normal conversation is virtually impossible - the waiters even strain to hear what one orders. Sunday lunch should be accompanied by laid-back, relaxed music, not lead-guitar solos, played by very young musicians.

Food was decent but nothing special. Probably a bit overpriced but I suppose because of the beautiful view. Coffee was actually really good. Don't have any specific complaints. We were hungry and it got the job done!

Lovely view, friendly waitron but my salad was not too inspiring. I chose the special salmon salad from the blackboard. At R 95 I thought it could have been a little more. My husbands peri peri livers were very good and quite substantial.

We chose to eat here twice in 4 days of our stay in Hermanus it was soooooo good. Fresh Pizzas cooked a proper Pizza oven great service - very generous sized portions of pasta etc and the desserts were awesome including a homemade chocolate lava pudding delicious and as all now hard to perfect... plus a cracking Tiramisu that would feed 3 easy!? When we were there the cricket was on TV so all the family were very happy and fed for a very reasonable price too! Advice is to definitely book as by 7pm they're full 7 days a week its so good the locals fill it themselves...Thankyou for our dinners shame you're so far from the UK!?Thank you very much for your kind review, we're glad you enjoyed your visits. Hopefully not too long until you're in Hermanus again.

Iâve come to this place for years, because of its ambience and its beautiful views. I fully know that itâs overpriced and that the food is pretty ordinary, but tonight I could nog help feel that itâs a complete rip-off. I paid R180 for an ordinary portion of cob and a single small serving of veggies. The fish was dry and overcooked - I could not finish it. Nothing special or extra from the chef, not even the normal serving of fresh bread. Wine priced at R180 a bottle (the cheapest available), and desert at R65 for a choc pudding. The crème brûlée at R50 was above average I have to admit, but still... Will I be back? Perhaps for a glass of wine, definitely not for a main meal. Furious with myself that we tipped in spite of the really bad value for money. But then, the service was friendly. So what do you do? You write a review so that the chef and manager can take note and do their best to improve. Itâs a crime to waste such a beautiful setting.

A warm welcome, all from the staff get a thumbs up, in a cosy place which we found via TripAdvisor. The food was good the wine too. One advise for improvement. The tables are tiny already for two guests. If you order a bottle of white wine as we did, it needs to be chilled. Placing the cooling on the floor close to the guests feet is not suitable. Consider a table mountable wine bucket or at least a wine chiller stand.

Waited full 30 mins to be served. Asked for our order before we had seen the steak tray, on which were not in the end dry aged but simply unusual cuts of (wet aged) meat (that in UK you would stew due to chewy nature). Dry aged was never mentioned, so that appears to be a bit of a âconâ. Wet aged ribeye was very good. Beer of the month off. Much of the wine rather expensive.HIThank you for taking the time to write to usJust to clarify all meat that was shown on that tray is all dry aged, We portion, vac pac and label 1 hour before service every day. So that tray has been matured in the dry aged fridge for 4 weeksIts a pity you did not try one of the cuts you say is stew meat as Those cuts, matured properly and treated with care can be more tender than a fillet and more flavorful that a Chuck. Please keep in mind we also have T bones, Tomahawks etc available but as we cut them they sell out really fast.Thank you for your feedback and sorry if you feel the service was slow, will investigate thatKind RegardsPetri
