    Good prawns were enjoyed by all, had an issue with Don Pedros’ which was then resolved. Music was great, always enjoy Sundays at the Lookout

    My daughter and I headed to The Lookout Hout Bay for a mom and daughter dinner. Being seafood lovers we had the oysters (plump and delicious), the seared tuna steak (cooked to perfection) and a plate of lemon butter grilled prawns (my daughter said the best prawns she's ever had). Our waitress Kiara was super and also deserves 5 stars. Cannot wait to return.
