L’ami Family Brasserie invites friends and families to enjoy each other’s company while sharing delicious food and wine that not only honour La Motte’s French heritage, but also local traditions in a modern and informal way.

An A la Carte menu is served for lunch from Wednesday to Saturday as well as for dinner on Fridays and Saturdays. This seasonal menu celebrates the concept of farm to table and focuses on locally sourced ingredients and honest flavours with elements of open-fire cooking. It also offers options for children.

Guests are invited into the spacious and relaxed indoor restaurant or to enjoy the estate gardens and the ambience of the age-old oaks from the wrap-around stoep.

The wine list concentrates on La Motte wines available at cellar door pricing, but also presents South Africa’s lovely diversity with a selection of local wines as well as some European favourites.

    This is my fourth visit. The food is amazing, the restaurant itself is beautiful but the staff make it exceptional. The place is totally unpretentious and as good if not better than any other restaurant in Franschhoek. Highly recommend a visit here if you’re in Franschhoek.

    Almoçamos no L’Ami e adoramos. A vinícola La Motte é muito bonita, com paisagens exuberantes. O restaurante também é muito lindo. A comida estava uma delícia. O atendimento foi ótimo.
