    WOW! What an experience. Everything was excellent from location to food to service. We came 2 hours late - no problem! We had a last drop in numbers - no problem. It was all so professional and with attention to detail - we were totally blown away! What a team! Thank you

    Nice restaurant overall. A bit disappointed about the food (for the price). We also found hair in 3 of our dishes which was very underwhelming. The location is great, service also very nice.

    Appetisers and starters were great. Main course was disappointing. Gnocchi was rubbery. Also not impressed that line fish is being imported from Mauritius. Both the main courses felt like something was missing on the plate .Don’t think I will be rushing back.

    Overall the experience with 3 International guests and myself ( after my 3RD visit ) last night was disappointing , from the door arrival to the table service ( 4 waiters and 3 reception staff ) the service is sadly " manufactured " and unengaging and clearly scripted to the point of detracting from the dining and food experience. The lack of any sincerity and formality in the connection between guest and customer makes the value proposition and enjoyment far below Fyn and other fine dining offers in Cape Town .
