Step into the gastronomic heart of the hotel and take your seat in an exclusive, hidden dining space. Watch in wonder as dishes are prepared right before your eyes—then uncover the inspiration behind each creation.

Inspired by the seasons and the desire to reduce our footprint on this wonderful land, the chefs have put their minds and attentions on sourcing, when possible, local organically grown produce that has the smallest impact on our environment. They deal with likeminded farmers and producers who share a desire that our children must also be able to share this land’s harvest with their children. They have excluded meat and fish intentionally and chosen to showcase and celebrate the wonderous bounty of Western Cape agriculture.

    Average meal , not very creative ,very good service but the finale was a disaster. The cheesy dish and the dessert were a real let down. Beside the service it was a very disappointing experience.

    It truly was a wonderful evening with Chef Izak excelling in the courses he served us. We enjoyed the interaction with him as well. Lazarus was a wonderful host and attended to our every need with the finest of details. As always the Nellie lived up to what we love about it: we feel at home, part of the family, best service and attention to detail. Thank you for making our date night celebrating life, extra special.
