Such personalised service it feels like you are visiting the family which owns the business in their home.
After we had already paid we enquired with the sweet owner what denning vleis was. We were already out the door when she insisted that we return for a free taste. To our amazement a whole plate of denning vleis with all the accompaniments arrived. Wow
Stopped for lunch. Today they had a buffet with salads, chicken curry, rice, babotie, yellow rice, dhal and so much more. A starter was served and also dessert.
This is a MUST if you are in Cape Town! Oustanding cuisine, breathtaking views and if you are fortunate enough to meet the owners Yusuf and Nazli, you will also hear about the history of the Bo-Kaap and the incredible people that make up this cosmopolitam community. Book now!
Beautiful view overlooking Cape Town and Table Mountain. Family run, traditional cape Malay buffet.

We had two different taster platters. To me only the denningvleis was fantastic, while the other dishes are made much better at home or by family or friends. Very nice service though and the view is outstanding!
My family we took a trip to Bo Kaap Kombuis for the buffet experience to be honest would’ve liked a wider variety however the food was okay traditional and the desert was absolutely delicious you will definitely enjoy the views make booking id suggest to get a good seating it’s not very big but it was nice and quiet…they don’t make use of Amex card and no soft music playing in the back keep that in mind overall it’s was good
What a joyous and delightful host and family. Authentic Cape Malay traditional food and the views are stunning. It doesn't get better than this. Have the starter samoosa which was part of the buffet, you won't want one from anywhere else ever again. Recommended to me by #Cape Malay Consultants @Nazreen Salie.
Lovely waiters with rich heritage displayed on the walls of the restaurant. A unique and wonderful experience
Homely atmosphere with stunning views, the food was good too.
Firstly, this is a business that is family owned, Nazli and Boeta Yusuf is always on hand to welcome you with a warm smile. Secondly, you have an amazing view over the Bo-Kaap and the CBD, from a restaurant in the heart of this cultural hub. Thirdly, you have an amazing food spread being prepared, freshly prepared, FULL OF FLAVOR, traditional Malay Cuisine at its best. The pricing is on par with other restaurants, just more value / quality food, for your money from this restaurant. The restaurant had gone over and above most Cape Town restaurants, by having screens installed between tables, in an effort to prioritize safety for patrons where it comes to covid.
I've taken many local and international guests to this establishment and they have never disappointed. I recommend this restaurant to everyone, and the warm reception by the owners, makes it feel like your visiting family opposed to eating at a restaurant.
