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.

    We love your restaurant - it’s our favorite fine dining in the Cape. The food is very good, the service and ambience always brilliant . Your management always ‘on the ball’ . I have 2 points to feedback regarding the menu . As we come there quite often , and I am a pescatarian , yellow tail has been the fish for the last 3 times we have been there . Yellow tail is the only fish I I dislike cooked ! You have served it for me seared , which I prefer , but I think you should consider offering another type of fish. Secondly , it would be lovely to have some green vegetables.yesterday you had the grilled mixed veg, which had some green veg . But offering one green veg. would be fantastic . Look forward to seeing you next week. Thank you .

    Dear Afsi & Keith, thank you very much for taking the time to award us high ratings as well as supply a detailed review. We are also apologetic that during each of your visits the line fish was indeed yellowtail, as we do rotate the line fish regularly. Please feel free to query alternatives with your waitron, as in some cases we may be able to make a plan. Otherwise, the feedback is really appreciated and we have shared your suggestions with the team. We look forward to welcoming you again soon. Kind regards.
