We opened in 1998 and we have been the busiest restaurant in Camps bay since opening. We take pride in our work and provide the best Seafood quality. Customer satisfaction is very important to us.

We do not advertise. We believe that the best advertising is word of mouth of happy guests and this is what has kept us full and busy for the last 17 years! A good name and great reputation cannot be bought. It has been earned through consistency over time.

We have no menus. Our warm and highly trained waitrons instead guide you through our extensive array of delicious and incredible selection of fresh seafood and help you to select an individual plate or platter for the table. They will explain as to the different tastes and textures of the seafood and how the food is prepared and served and show you the cost of your selection.

    The Cod Father is consistently good. We hadn’t been back since they discontinued butter fish, which was a disappointment. The casual but elegant “fish market” vibe is unique in Cape Town and the service is excellent. Customising a shared platter is a great idea on a date. The scallops were perfectly done, which can be tricky, and plated beautifully. Our variety of seafood selections were almost all excellent, aside from a slightly overcooked sea bass that was noted and sincerely apologised for. Wine list is very nice and varied.
