We are fiercely passionate about supporting local producers and artisans, thus keeping the restaurant’s carbon footprint to a minimum, and improving self-sustainability at the restaurant. Micro gardens have been established throughout our property, which will produce a rotating supply of fresh herbs and vegetables.

With flavour, enjoyment and value at the top of his list, the new dishes offer freshness, creativity, and generosity, but without compromising on technique or elegance.

The lunch and dinner menu are designed to invite diners to customise their Monneaux Restaurant experience with a wide selection of starters and mains, as well as lighter “snack style” dishes. Guests can opt to share a few snacks and starters over casual drinks, select just a starter or main course for a quick meal, or choose a more traditional flow of starters and mains for an unhasty, exceptional lunch or dinner.

Monneaux Restaurant’s variety of beautiful seating areas lend themselves seamlessly to suit all preferences. The outdoor fountain terrace, beneath the dappled shade of a spreading pepper tree, is ideal for lazy summer lunches and sundowners, and al fresco dinners beneath twinkling fairy lights on balmy evenings. The restaurant’s stylish interior is discretely divided into three individual dining rooms, creating an intimate atmosphere.

For those choosing to linger longer and immerse themselves in the Franschhoek valley, the five star Franschhoek Country House & Villas offers luxuriously appointed rooms and suites set within the property’s exquisite country-style gardens. Complimentary offerings for hotel guests include daily breakfast, afternoon drinks, exclusive use of the hotel’s two swimming pools, air-conditioned shuttle transfers around the village and use of the Franschhoek Health Club’s facilities.

    A lovely experience with great food, excellent service and at a reasonable price. If I have to find criticism, it would be that the dining chair was uncomfortable making it difficult to relax and linger after our meal. I note that seating at other tables was different - so perhaps we were just unlucky. Thanks for a great dinner.

    My favourite dish was a vegetarian raviolo which encapsulated the heritage flavours it was meant to represent wonderfully.

    From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and promptly shown to our table. The service throughout was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and professional. Dinner was absolutely superb—compliments to the chef and the entire team for a memorable experience. We’ll definitely be returning and will gladly recommend it to our guests and friends.

    This is the second time our team has dined at this establishment, and each experience surpasses the last. We were fortunate enough to receive an impromptu tour of the premises, which are truly stunning. Once again, the dinner and service were excellent, and if we have the chance, we will definitely return. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
