It was my first time there last night and what a wonderful time we had. At first we were skeptical to go because of the bad reviews, but we are so glad that we did.

The food was really really good and service was amazing and the atmosphere beautiful.
Thank you for giving us an amazing time

My parents love this place but it's not for me. I don't like the food and the service is far from smooth. But hey its my dad's favourite restaurant so give it a try.

An unparalleled setting, but God awful food! What a wasteHad the worst risotto EVER - dry, clumpy and tasted of Aromat. When we asked the waiter if Aromat had been added, he proudly said that it was added to everything!!! Oh. My. God.

Had high hopes seeing this restaurant was located next to exclusive restaurants on the waterfront. Ordered baby calamari as starter and mussels in garlic wines sauce.
Plates were cold and the starter looked simple. Tasted okay, but not really good. The main was terrible. The sausage was very thick and the plate was cold too. Only got a few mussels and they weren't Too good either. Service wasn't quick or very outstanding.

A horrible experience started on our arrival on Christmas eve to find that our car registration was never given to security, making it very hard to get access to the restaurant parking. The table we booked was occupied by another party so we had to settle for an alternate table with less of a view.

The sparkling wine we always order was out of stock and was offered an alternative bottle at a similar price by the manager whom seated us, or so we thought

Our starter, snails, arrived cold and we only received its occupying dish after asking for it a 3rd time.

As main courses, I ordered the prawn pasta in which I got 3 tiny pieces of prawn in the whole dish. My wife ordered the Cajun Calamari, now before I get into this, we love VERY spicy food but this stuff was uneatable in terms of spiciness. Along with that, the dish was dry as it was served with no sauce , nor was one offered, not even for the chips which took up most of the plate.

Upon receiving our bill we discovered that the sparkling wine was much more expensive than the manager indicated, about R500 ($50 give or take) more. When we asked about it we were told that the price she gave us at the beginning of the evening was PER GLASS and not per bottle. Disgusted at the fact that she failed to mention that it was per glass and the fact that it was far from a similar in terms of price from the bottle we initially requested. Of course she now denied all this.

Her attitude suggested we were a nuisance and couldn't be bothered less when I raised all the other faults regarding the food previously mentioned.

There are many restaurants in the area and I would recommend any one of them over this one. By far our worst dining experience in our 2 week stay in Capetown, and probably our worst Christmas dinner in South Africa.
