    We were a table of six and were made to feel welcome from start to finish. The service was impeccable and Troy was knowledgeable about the food when asked. The absolute highlight was the Bloody Mary Oyster shots and plain oysters. We would highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back again xx

    The quality of the food was very good. The "baked lemon cheesecake" had no lemon flavor and was not baked.

    We had a very enjoyable lunch. I had a delicious beef burger, beautifully presented. My wife had the line fish (swordfish) and her friend had the tuna. Both fish dishes were generous portions that were beautifully cooked and presented. Our waitress was super friendly and helpful and, of course the setting in Hout Bay harbour is very special. My only gripe would be the general price of wine, which takes the edge off the enjoyment of the food. A few more reasonably priced options for locals would be appreciated, then we could afford to order two bottles instead of one!
