The only Beachfront restaurant in Knysna.

Butterfly Blu is perched on a dune top with beautiful panoramic sea views making it one of the most idyllic restaurants in Knysna with beautiful food, an outdoor/indoor deck, lounge areas, cocktail bar, and a contemporary interior. Directly below the restaurant is beautiful stretch of white sandy beach and rolling dunes covered with lush fynbos for which this part of the world is so famous. The setting is perfect to enjoy a rosy sunset after a stroll on the beach.

Our philosophy is simple – to make your visit and dining experience as pleasurable as possible. We are passionate about what we do! With a commitment to sourcing the freshest produce seasonally, our chefs utilise locally-sourced ingredients across all areas of the continually evolving contemporary menu, to deliver a unique dining experience. Everything is made fresh in house under the watchful eye of chefs who have honed their skills for more than 25 years in various inspirational kitchens in Northern Europe.

    The list of positives are endless, but i will try to shorten it. Firstly their menu consist of an absolutely pehenomenal variety, and each dish is excellent. Preparation, presentation and taste is absolutely exceptional. I am not going to touch on value for money, because this is not the type of restaurant you come to if you want specials !!!! If you want to eat good, you need to be willing to pay good money. All said and done, the dishes are very reasonably priced. The ambience, view, comfortable seating and access is all excellent. Zinzi, our waitress was excellent. She knows her menu, she is multilingual and so friendly and witty. She knows how to get a variety of food and drink to the table at the same time, and she has a lovely personality and style about her. Management communication was excellent as well. We will see you again soon . Five stars 🌟
