    We had a super night. Thanks again. Delicious food. The only thing I’d suggest is less salt on the zucchini frites. We can add salt ourselves, if necessary. Glad to see Gin Mare behind the bar! Need more South African wines on your wine list. Italian wines aren’t necessary, due to the carbon footprint in transporting them from Europe. Support your own wine industry. All in all though we enjoyed our night there.

    Best pasta I had in a long time (I had the Italian sausage pasta)! They also have Italian wines, which are great and well-priced. The burrata was unfortunately off, but they were very accommodating and took it off the bill. The tiramisu was yummy as well and it is a very generous portion that can easily be shared between 2 or 3 people. It is very loud in the front part of the restaurant but in the back part it is really nice. The service was great, just the hostess was really unwelcoming: we haven't even sat down when she told us that we have to be out again in 2 hours. We are aware that this 2-hour table policy is ow a thing in Cape Town, but at least let the people arrive first and get a drink before you tell them that they have to leave soon again
