1. Zibaldone
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 125 reviews
Reviewed By wwil2016 - Dubai, United Arab Emirates
The menu is vast - you have choices and options and more options with choices. The food is fresh and flavoursome without being pretentious. Pasta, duck, risotto, pizza, meat, etc, you want it you can have it. Portion sizes are fair and you will not walk out hungry. Wine can be ordered by the glass and many desserts available including fondant. The owners are in the dining area the whole time, thus you can ask them (and the waiters) about the menu and options. They know their dishes and describe it to the T.

We have visited various branches of Ocean Basket in the Milnerton and Table View areas. The fish is deliciously made and as I'm a huge fish lover and we cannot find the nice South African fish in UK, I make a point of getting to eat as much fish as I can when in South Africa. Every fish you can find and everything is cooked to perfection.
3. Die Boer

Reviewed By Martin N - Bellville, South Africa
We visited "Die Boer" when Steve Hofmeyr performed the evening. What a stunning show and a real ambassador for all South-Africans. We are regulars and attend frequent shows. The ambiance and feel is typical "Die Boer" and you have to experience it for yourself. I had the "patat hoender" which is one of my favorites. Do not remove this dish from your menu as it is a favorite for so many customers. Julle maak ons so trots om Afrikaans te wees. This is a place where you belong and it feels like home.

We were a group of 8. I had fillet Rossini with peri peri liver topping. Ordered and received food medium rare, soft, succulent and tasty. 4 others ordered Chateaubriand to share, all said was amazing. A sole was also ordered and cooked to perfection. We took our own wine and no corkage charged. Service was very efficient. Overall experience very good.

6. The Hussar Grill Willowbridge
Overall Ratings
4 based on 337 reviews
Situated in the Willowbridge Lifestyle Centre in the northern suburbs of Cape Town, this Hussar Grill is renowned for being one of the best restaurants in Durbanville. The restaurant's interior takes its cue from the trademark Hussar Grill design - traditional grill room combined with old-school dining. It offers a light and airy outdoor Seating area overlooking the green belt of the Elsiekraal River, where you can dine al fresco style in the warmer weather, as well as a comfortable and relaxed indoor dining section. The Hussar Grill Willowbridge is situated close to the Barnyard Theatre and is therefore an ideal venue for pre or post-show dinner.

After a week of just eating ftom the ocean, my wife and I decided to have a nice steak for a change. We refered to TripAdvisor for help and quickly descovered The Hussar Grill.
We were met by friendly staff at the door, and were seated immediately, since we booked in advance. However, we were taken to a bavk room that looked like an old library, quite small and overcrowded. The doors to the outside were open, but in the corner we were crammed into there was zero ventilation.
The tables were stacked so closely together that we could not have a personal conversation without the neighbors hearing every single word. As luck would have it, we got the loudest couple next to us and two old school friends behind us, and the only word they both knew and used, was f@#k.
Our waiter quickly entroduced himself, got us a round of drinks, then dissapeared! We had to ask another waiter to get the next round of drinks and before the next to please call our waiter so that we can order our food.
When you put on your menu the different ways you cook a steak (rare, medium rare, medium, etc.), at least have a griller that can actually grill.
I will deffinately return when in the area, hopefully to see some improvement.

Reviewed By ejlotz - Bellville, South Africa
This is definitely the place to visit if you feel like a decent pizza. The toppings on the pizza's are interesting and good quality, with slightly different combinations than usual (for example the hawaian has smoked gammon on it instead of ham...YUM!). The vibe is also very 'gesellig' and cosy, but I would say it is more of a group hangout than an intimate 'dinner for two' kind off place, maybe slightly noisy. The service was friendly, but perhaps could've been a little bit faster, but food was delivered to our table for everyone at the same time and HOT of the oven. Olive Bistro is absolutely worth a visit...ticks all the boxes!

This is a great restaurant easily accessible in Cape Gate (right next to the cinema).
Definitely order the garlic flatbread as an appetizer if you enjoy garlic. The chopped hot peppers topping and the garlic in oil are wonderful toppings to add to your pizza choice.
Pizza, sub sandwiches, pasta are the key menu offerings. I like to customize my pizza with my own topping choices.
Good, friendly service and free wifi too! I will definitely be back here next time I am in town!
