This is a great restaurant if want to enjoy the views or catch the sunset in Camps Bay. I had some pizza and champagne, their pizza was absolutely delicious with a nice thin base. Our waiter was also very friendly.

Great service, food was delicious and couldn't have asked for a better table right ny the window to experience the beautiful views as the son was setting. Definitely coming back.
A friend recommended it and it's a great place to be, good food, great ocean view and obviously friendly staff. Would recommend it as well and surely gonna go back.❤

After a rather tiring day of sightseeing, I came to Camps Bay especially to Mantra Cafe for a spot of dinner.
Let's start off with the service, the service when available, was good. But unfortunately it was sproadic. And also they still serve plastic straws (tsk tsk) hence if I had this review a 4 instead of the 5. If it was the food alone, it would have been a perfect 5.
I chose to have a starter of tuna ceviche which was very quickly brought out. It was a really good starter. The marinade was spectacular, together with the raw tuna, avocado and peppers was a taste sensation.
For mains, I had the seafood pasta. Now, I'm not usually a cream based pasta person but this seafood pasta is in one word - WOW. Food came out hot (thankfully) and nice presented.
The were 6 large mussels and a few smaller ones. It also had a boat load of fish (hake I think). Please allow me to wax lyrical about the fish that accompanied this dish. It was bite size pieces of the most juices and tender soft morsels which I think had been deep-fried before (or flash fried probably) as the skin had a smoky taste which indicated it to be so. But nevertheless after being mixed into the dish, it was melt in the mouth soft.
The food was cosmically good but unfortunately, in my opinion over all let down by the slightly degraded service.
Still the restaurant was very busy (though not full) and very nicely decorated. I sat on the deck with a view of the already dark Camps Bay Beach. I reckon in the summer months when the sun sets much later, it would have been a instagram-worth view.
My partner and I went for our anniversary brekkie here and my oh my did they blow our expectations away..The food was delicious- we had traditional breakfasts and hot chocolates
The service was excellent- they are all so friendly and on the ball which is great!
And last but not least the view.. you overlook onto the ocean's tides
Thank you for such a great experience
Looking forward to going back !
I love coming here as often as I can for their ice coffees and summer berry pavlova, it's to die for I can't get enough of it. Every time I want to try something else on the menu my taste buds won't let me.
Food is really a 3, but giving this place a bonus point for the amazing service and fabulous views.
Scorching hot day in Jan and all I wanted to do was pretend I was still on vacation, wine glass in hand...while watching tourists on the Camps Bay strip. This place was perfect for that!
Had their goats cheese, caramelized red onion and walnut pesto pizza. It was ok.. nothing amazing. I actually thought the pizza bread served complimentary was far better.
I’d return here solely for drinks.
Our favourite restaurant in Camps Bay by far. A beautiful setting, great service and really good food. Our son is ‘hooked’ on their Hawaiian pizza. One of the few family friendly outlets along the party like Camps Bay beach front.
Could do with more vegetarian options- there were only one. The staff are super friendly and the restaurant is beautifully located though. Would probably visit again
If you're looking for a cute spot to watch the sunset Melissa's got that. Such an amazing place and great dessert. Thats the bomb.com. Great service
A lovely restaurant overlooking camps bay right on the oceanfront. The server - Mignon - was courteous and very knowledgeable. He was able to make recommendations that I enjoyed. The service, while there were a few other diners, was efficient. The food is superb. Did I mention that the restaurant has breathtaking views of the ocean.
Stunning restaurant with a gorgeous view. Loved my choice of mussels for lunch and my hubby equally enjoyed the burger. Service was great. Music at the right level so we could have a lovely chat and enjoy the vibe. Really loved our lunch spent here.
Fantastic restaurant on Camp Bay. Great food, luxurious service and amazing turquoise sea view of the bay. Recommend pairing wine was wonderful too.
Amazing restaurant in Camps Bay, ambience super great and fire views. Deposit needed to book( I however think the exclusivity might be overly dramatized) with the strict payment as part of the booking. The deposit goes to the bill, but still, just have a more efficient booking system maybe?
The food options are great, not too expansive though, the service is amazing and place very welcoming with plants and a zen vibe to it.
They also sell candles and an assortment of other trinkets.
Would go back again when in Cape Town.
Excellent food & atmosphere! If you want a prime table for the sunset be sure and make reservations. Prices are higher for the perfect views.
Food was good had a bit of a wait for it. Was accommodated without a reservation which is always nice. View is amazing especially overlooking the sea. The sun feels good on the skin. Love the ambiance, so many plants it gives it a unique vibe. Good idea for date day/night. We had an amazing server.
My partner and I had lunch there today… cocktails- amazing
Food- amazing
Service- maybe a but slow because it was really busy…
Location- Sea facing, full sea view when you are sitting outside.
A must try when you are around town.
Edit: Visited again and the food and service was exceptional. The Mushroom Masala fillet was Devine. So was the salmon.
The food was so good, visually and tasted amazing. The service was good and the views were the best!
This is my favourite place on Camps Bay to sit and watch the day go by. They serve great breakfasts and I love the seafood pasta for lunch. A lovely view of Camps Bay from the first floor and if it's a nice day you can sit on the veranda.
The food and atmosphere were great. We were seated and not attended to for more than 15 min until we asked to be attended to. However, the food was spectacular.
