Steeped in over 300 years of history, the former guard house, tea room, hotel and the hunting lodge of Lord Charles Somerset has been elegantly restored with the charm and sophistication of the Grand Old Cape. The style of cuisine at The Roundhouse is unc

The Round house has amazing views and great potential.I have eaten there twice,once for lunch and once for breakfast.Lunch was okay although not memorable and umbrellas seem to be scarce.Breakfast was a total disaster.We had a large table as it was a birthday celebration.Once again umbrellas were at a premium so it was hot!The service was absolutely awful,not due to the waiters who were charming but run,literally off their feet as very few seemed to be about and had too many people to attend to.The breakfast was generous and excellent but many at the table got coffee after the meal if at all,and then it was cool.Even tap water was hard to get and knives and forks had to be found at other tables as Did salt and pepper.As it is a tourist attraction I really hope that by next season this restaurant makes a plan.

Established by the inimitable Freda, Cafè Paradiso immediately set the bar for local cuisine and, from its inception, introduced us to a variety of dishes and ingredients seldom before experienced locally. Loving the idyllic setting and the warm ambience,

Been here every year the last 10 years. Today was noticeable that the food has gradually gone from very good to just average. The gnocchi was bland and tasteless and the meat was not good. Redwine was over chilled and I was wondering if that was to cover for bad wine? Sorry Cafe Paradiso but you might have seen me the last time

This is by far our favorite pizza place in our neighborhood. The family that runs it is absolutely lovely and the food is always delicious.

THE SHOP is a relaxed Eatery, where a husband and wife team cook and serve as if you were in their own home. The food is simply prepared and served, allowing provenance and quality of ingredients to really come through. Having built up a reputation for un

This used to be much more of a steak house but is under new chef/wife ownership and now serving excellent food.Our courses included catch of the day,calamari and filet of beef and all were excellently presented and cooked as was the crime brûlée dessert.Service was good and there was a very family atmosphere.This place deserves to thrive and we will return soon.

Our guide on a small group tour/safari suggested this restaurant near our hotel, saying they specialized in game. Eight of us went and no one was disappointed. We shared the game platter -- as it appears, everyone does -- and it was delicious, dispelling any reluctance I initially had in dining on the critters we'd soon see on safari.The warthog consisted of tender, barbecued ribs and the crocodile served in a mild curry sauce. The grilled kudu was similar to beef and the ostrich was served with a mushroom cream sauce. Game is not something every restaurant serves, so this is a good chance to try a well-prepared version. The malva pudding -- a South African specialty -- is not to be missed for dessert. End the evening with a springbok: green creme de menthe topped with the iconic Amarula liqueur, and meant to be drunk as a shooter. It's good!

My wife, our son and I all ordered their sirloin steak. Perfect in every way. Next time I will definitely opt for one of the other fine sounding dishes on the menu. Well-trained and attentive staff

The minute we entered the restaurant, we felt comfortable and cared for. The service was impeccable. We were presented with the dinner options but had some questions because my friend is lactose intolerant. Unlike some other restaurants I've been to where the staff seems put out when changes to a dish are requested, the server here just said she'd check with the chef and came back with some excellent options for my friend. The two dishes we had were deconstructed so had a unique look and the taste of both were wonderful. In fact, I know it's the best food I had during my visit to South Africa. The wine selections were excellent with a large pour - no stingy drink size here. The "on the house" dish of chocolates served at the end was a nice touch. I thought the price was reasonable for the experience and would definitely recommend La Mouette.

Tucked away in a shopping centre we would not have found this restaurant without TripAdvisor! Conveniently situated within walking distance of our hotel in Sea Point. It's a very large restaurant and when we arrived there were just a few tables occupied but by the time we left the place was abuzz with diners. We had steaks but noticed quite a few diners opted for prawns of fish. Clearly they have a good reputation and their popularity is evident.
