Savour Refined Contemporary Cuisine in a Breathtaking Setting

Enjoy a relaxed yet sophisticated culinary experience in our open-plan restaurant, where floor-to-ceiling windows open onto a terrace with panoramic views of Stellenbosch and the Helderberg mountains. Our menu celebrates bold, seasonal flavours with a contemporary twist—crafted to complement our award-winning portfolio of Ernie Els wines.

Lunch is available 7 days a week.
Dinner is available on Thursday, Friday & Saturday Evenings, November – May annually.

For a more casual setting, guests are also invited to enjoy select dishes from our Grillworks menu available exclusively in the Tasting Room. Designed to pair beautifully with the Ernie Els wines, these dishes offer a flavour-forward, leisurely alternative in an equally scenic and welcoming space.

Tasting Room Reservations are only required for 8+ guests.

    Exceptional on every level, from the very warm welcome to the very attentive waitress who really listened to us and our dietary preferences, to the outstanding food, beautifully presented, to the excellent coffee. This way exceeded our already high expectations. The venue is beautiful, the location spectacular. And try their grape juice - amazing.

    Everything we had was 100/10 ,The food was beautifully prepared , from the starter ( squid ) , mains (pork belly , sirloin ) , Dare I forget the mouthwatering light and creamy tiramisu . The wines were exceptional and paired beautifully with the meals , showcasing the quality the estate is known for. This was the perfect destination to spend my sisters birthday and the estate delivered . The ambiance of the afternoon sun , paired with great glass wine in hand , excellent service from start to finish. Thank you , I'm looking forward to visiting again .
