Craddled by the folds of the Table Mountain National Park and sheltered by towering oaks and whispering stone pines, The Lawns nestles against the rump of the Table Mountain National Park. With views out across the Atlantic Ocean and the mountain peaks known as the Twelve Apostles, while high above cable cars whisk tourists to the top of Cape Towns iconic mountain. The Lawns is a relaxed all-day affair, with an array of outdoor spaces that take full advantage of this dramatic mountainside location.

    Enjoyed it very much, only observation is that of all the lawns 2 would be our preferred as offers the best view and away from the children’s area and the road noise.

    The view and location are stunning. And the ambience is truly great, but the service is not great. The hostess didn't seem welcoming at all. She just threw the menus on the table and left and did not bring a waiter/waitress to the table. We actually waited about 10 minutes and then had to call a waiter over. They seem to be slightly understaffed, as waiting times are quite long. Our waiter was very friendly but was extremely occupied by all of the tables (an understaffing issue, I believe). The biggest issue was the toilets. There is one toilet for men and women and one for mom and baby. There is a minimum of 80 tables to serve. One bathroom per gender is crazy. When my girlfriend went to the restroom, there wasn't toilet paper. It's pretty disgusting. Anyways, the food was fine, but for the price, it's not worth it. Overall a disappointing experience, as the marketing for the restaurant does a great job, but reality is different. Sorry for the bad review, but it's an honest one.
