Each year, diners across South Africa add their go-to spots to their favourites list on the Dineplan App. In 2024, the list featured fine dining, steakhouses, and restaurants with unbeatable views. This year, those favourites remain – but they’re joined by family-style dining, laid-back spots, and smaller eateries making their mark.
The Top 20:
- FYN Restaurant (Cape Town City Centre, Cape Town)
- Chefs Warehouse at Tintswalo Atlantic (Chapman’s Peak, Cape Town)
- The Nines (Sea Point, Cape Town)
- Upper Union Restaurant (Gardens, Cape Town)
- La Petite Colombe Leeu Estate (Franschhoek, Western Cape)
- COY (V&A Waterfront, Cape Town)
- The Bungalow (Clifton, Cape Town)
- Salsify at The Roundhouse (Camps Bay, Cape Town)

- The Codfather Camps Bay (Camps Bay, Cape Town)
