Cavallis Everyday Gourmet menu is all about celebrating real food that nourishes and excites.

Putting a contemporary, inventive spin on classic dishes, we grow our own seasonal herbs and have many vegetable varieties grown from seed and cuttings. As the first Green-star rated restaurant in South Africa, we treasure the beauty of our natural heritage.

We simply believe in eating delicious, fresh, whole foods prepared in a way that honours the seasons. We want our food to be the kind that people enjoy not just once but again and again, the type of food that people come back for.

    I made a reservation in advance for my husband's 60th birthday. On the evening we were the only table...food was poor. Big disappointment. It would have been beter if they canceled the booking.

    The Winemaker's dinner experience was exceptional. The ambience was warm and welcoming, the wine was flowing and the food was hearty and exceptional. We made good friends, and had an amazing experience overall. 10/10 would recommend.

    Justin and Siko, with honorable mentions all around, made for a very memorable evening Don;t miss the langoustine on a round of butternut. Exquisite when paired with the Cavalli Reserve white blend. Then the indescribable springbok medium rare with the Warlord red blend. Heaven! Go, you wont be disappointed.
