Situated in the centre of the resort and under a magnificent and enormous chandelier is Vista. As its name suggests, it offers incredible panoramic views of Table Mountain through its floor-to-ceiling wall of glass. Open all day, Vista Lounge serves snacks and canapes, but is most famous for the decadent Morning and Afternoon Tea selections. Later in the day, Vista transforms into a trendy and sophisticated wine and cocktail bar/lounge, with our expert mixologists delighting guests with unique concoctions using local flavours where possible.

    Food was delicious! Would like one or two more savory options but otherwise fine. I have to comment on the slow service though, waited over half hour for drinks that were ordered, then we ordered a bottle of bubbly and had to wait on the glasses, then they brought wine glasses instead of flutes, so had to ask for the right Thing. Although the staff are kind and friendly. It's not set up efficiently. You ask and wait. We even had to ask them to bring to food as it was taking forever. No butter for scones, when it came it was stone cold ans hard, had to request for strawberry Jam. All things that should be standard for a high tea and one would expect at an establishment such as O&O

    Please improve on presentation of food, it was very difficult to get to the jam and cream with container being stuck to the Oplatter, mini kiwi tarts was tasteless and mini chicken puffs was very dry

    While the afternoon tea selection of sandwiches and cakes was delectable and the waiters were friendly and efficient, I was disappointed with the attention to the finer details of our experience. When I made the afternoon tea reservation I specifically mentioned that it was for special occasion (my daughters 21st birthday). When arrived at the One&Only I again mentioned that it was for a 21st birthday celebration. Both times I was assured they would arrange something special. But to my disappointment absolutely nothing special was done.
