Mondial as I know it means ‘the whole world’ and that is certainly what they gave us tonight. From the service to the sea food, it was excellent. We had their Norwegian salmon and their prawns. For dessert we tried the baked Alaska which was a first for me, although it was quite rich it was the perfect end to our evening 👌🏼

I have been to Mondial twice now within a space of a week. Last week Friday I went with family for dinner. We ordered a variety of different meals.

The service was really good and the food excellent. I had the baby chicken which was juicy and spicy. I also tasted the burger which I really enjoyed. Everybody else at the table enjoyed their meals and drinks as well. Service was excellent and as a bonus I could use my Entertainer app for the meals.

Moving on to tonight's experience. Decided to pop in for a few drinks before heading elsewhere for dinner. Mondiall offers drinks as part of Entertainer as well. I had an Old Fashioned and wife had a Hemingway Daiquiri. While the drink were good, the service was slow. We only ended up having one round of drinks in the hour that we were there. We had to look for the waiter.

What a brilliant meal. There was a year end party happening at the same time as our dinner reservation but the manager, Candace, handled it spectacularly by giving us complimentary glasses of champagne. The burgers were delicious and great value for money. The service was also wonderful. We will definitely be back!

Definitely a place I’ll be visiting again (and again and again)
The service was warm and welcoming from the minute you walk in the door - the waiters are there ready to help with anything you need.
The food... wow I don’t know where to start - the wagu burger is AMAZEBALLS!!!!
The prices are a bit steep but it’s a nice treat!

Mondiall is situated on the outskirts of the V&A waterfront with idyllic views. The perfect vantage point to grab a bite to eat, as you watch the sun set over the Marina.

The menu offers plenty of variation and options for whatever your preference might be. We opted not to go with a starter course but to rather dig into our main course and maybe sneak in some dessert.

For our main courses we had the following:

• Norwegian Salmon with a miso glaze and sautéed greens

• The baked hake with tomato ragout and artichokes

• Cape Malay curry, which was absolutely divine. This course might prove to be a little spicy for the uninitiated but very tasty.

• The Prime cut of the day was perfectly prepared with delicious dauphinoise potatoes and tender stem broccoli.

All the courses were perfectly prepare and plated. I must add that the portions were very generous and represented value for money,

That old adage that we “eat with our eyes” certainly rang true for the dessert courses as they were all

• There was the chocolate noir tart with orange and berry

• The petit fours provided, as the name suggest, four tasty titbits for those wanting options when it came to the dessert.

• Then there was the baked milk tart with toasted almonds and cinnamon, always a favourite.

• Lastly there was the Tonka Bean cheesecake with butterscotch caramel and fresh berries to satisfy any “sweet tooth”

Again, a lovely picturesque venue with panoramic views a variety of courses to suite any preference.

It’s easy to pass this place on the various walkways in and around the waterfront, but perfect location and views of the mountain and harbour. Food was really good! Wagyu burger is a must! Service was also real good especially from the cute waiter hehe!

Opted for Mondiall for Sunday lunch and we were not disappointed. We had the free range steak, west coast mussels, prawns and Wagyu burger with truffle fries as sides and we were not disappointed, the food is tasty and the live DJ/singer just adds to the ambiance. Loved it

Had an early dinner with friends, the restaurant is well lit and has an upmarket finish.

The service on the night was initially slow, we had to find the hostess to be seated. We also had the wrong size table, however the staff quickly sorted it out. Our waiter was enthusiastic for the night and gave recommendations.

I chose the risotto of the day. Which was filling and went well with the wine we ordered for dinner.

I had the cauliflower and broccoli risotto.

The waiter who served us was sassy and had an attitude.

Bottom line: good food but limited pescatarian options.

I had brunch here this past Saturday with a voucher from Daddy's Deals. The restaurant has such a fancy vibe to it (and some people in there looked a little too dressed up) the decor is beautiful and gives it an upmarket feeling. The brunch itself was really well made and filling. We were treated well by the staff and got good seats inside. I would definitely go again but probably with another deal as the menu is a bit pricey for me.

Very nice setting and an enjoyable venue for a good cocktail the barman is happy to whip up something to suit your specific craving. Mondial caters to all people, should you want to go out on a budget they do have great happy hour specials and are also on the entertainer app. The burgers are very high quality and a substantial portion.

A really lovely morning at Mondiall Kitchen. The food was superb and excellent value for money.
The service was very slow but certainly made up by the wonderful ambience and spectacular unbeatable views.
The presentation was lovely and the quality superb.
I will say that the .5 was lost due to my food being cold and the service slow.
I enjoyed the Egg Royale which were poached and served on an English muffin with smoked salmon and hollandaise sauce.
My spouse enjoyed the Full English breakfast.
We will certainly go back.

What a great place!! Took my wife there for her birthday and it was totally worth it. Our waiter, Charl, was fantastic!!! He deserves a gold star - without a doubt!! Hehehe. For mains I had the cut of the day - sirloin with potato dauphinoise and my wife had Norwegian salmon with miso glaze and asian greens. Steak cooked very well, potato thin and quite delicate - very tasty and looked great on the plate. Salmon was well cooked with a crispy skin and the greens still crunchy. Dessert was dark choc and orange tort, and tonka bean baked cheesecake with butterscotch caramel.....hmmmmmm. By the end of the mains we where proper stuffed, but when the sweets arrived - the second stomach got to get in on the action. We had a wonderful night. Thank you. Ps. Do try the innis & gunn beer on tap - brewed in Edinburgh - it is fantastic!!

Came here as part of their wikideal they are offering, the food was good but when our waiter helped us and heard we had a voucher, his attitude changed a bit.
They shouldnt offer deals if they not going to make enough everyone feel welcome.

We had a really lovely evening at Mondiall tonight. We began with the aubergine and tomato starter, which was yum. Then we shared the beetroot and butternut salad and the garden gems salad. Both were fresh and delicious.

The chef was happy to make all our dishes vegan and the waiters were really enthusiastic about accommodating this too. Service was great and the atmosphere is lovely.

We loved our experience at Mondiall, V&A! I went for dinner and they had a lovely fire which warmed us up, and our waiter Nipho was amazing! I tried some dishes from the new winter menu, the chicken kebab for starters and the oven baked hake for mains, my boyfriend had the pork Belly for starters and salmon for main, and then we had the Tonka bean cheesecakes. All of these dishes were fantastic! Filled with flavour and generous portions. The overall ambiance was lovely and cozy, the service was top class, and the manager was great! I would definetly recommend going!

On the search to relive the best burger I have ever had (a waygu burger from a burger stand at the Good Food and Wine festival 2013), I decided to try Mondiall's signature Umami Waygu Burger. My SO and I made a reservation. When we arrived we were attended to immediately and received excellent service. The food was promptly served. The burger itself was great, the asian flavours were spot on and it certainly has the right to be called a signature dish. However, if your aim is to understand the difference between a normal pure beef patty and a waygu beef patty and to experience the dimensions the marbelling gives this may not be the best burger for you because the aim of this burger is all about the Umami flavouring.

After hearing about this place a few times, I finally made my way there to try out their wagu beef burger.

The restaurant is warm, welcoming and has a slight upper class feel to it. I was welcomed by very polite staff showing me to my table overlooking the harbour and table mountain.

I was there for the wagu beef burgers and couldn't wait to dig my teeth into it. It was juicy and full of flavour! Just what I had hoped for. I would have liked a little more garnish and perhaps a few options to add to it (cheese, chili, sauce). A little pricey, But all that aside, it still scored a fantastic 8/10.

Definitely worth a try

I did not eat at the restaurant but I had a burger from the burger bar. It was absolutely delicious! The best burger I have had in a while. You see the chefs hand rolling the patties and toasting the buns. It was a wonderful experience. The staff was very welcoming and engaged in conversation while our food was being prepared. They were also very accommodating if you wanted to make changes to the burger such as if you didn't want tomatoes etc.

They also had delicious fries to match the delicious burger. If you feel like indulging I would recommend their truffle parmesan fries!

Lovely quick easy and delicious meal, well worth the calories.

It's hard to think of a better way than to end off a long week of work than at Mondiall. The Basil Collins cocktail is great, the fish taco's are amazing, and the Wagyu Beef Burger is for me, one of the top 3 burgers in Cape Town (make sure you order the truffle fries and umami ketchup!). Pricey, but given the location and ambience, well worth it!

A great little spot at the V&A with delightful views and delish food. The Mondiall's Signature Fish Tacos are freaking amazing, as is their Truffle Fries - have to be my two fave dishes from their menu. Their Burger Bar is also great, have had their burgers a couple of times and they did not disappoint. The meat was tasty and their toppings and sauces are delish.

We came to Mondiall on a Friday night for dinner. This is a beautifully situated restaurant with amazing views of the harbour. Given the still evening, we chose to sit outside. They weren't particularly busy, yet the service was merely OK.
We both thoight our meals were delicious (birger for husband, risotto for me), but this is definitely on the higher end of the price scale (it is the waterfront after all), so we were glad to be using the entertainer app.
An enjoyable evening over all.

While this is not the restaurants fault, sitting outside did lead to people approaching us asking for money and begging, which as the season picks up, should be monitored.

The low lighting gives this restaurant a romantic ambiance, but the size of it makes it slightly less intimate.
The food is absolutely delicious - I had the burger on my first visit and the beef short rib (fav!) on the second visit - portions are generous. The caramelised banana desert was rich & lovely, and was enough to share. Service was very friendly and helpful - even though the waiter was training.
Cost is slightly on the upper end but worth it.
Tip: Ask for a secluded table with a view.

Came here a couple of works ago - they have lovely views of the waterfront and would recommend a table at the front of the restaurant if possible. The service was excellent from the moment I walked in, attentive yet unobtrustive, which was a pleasant surprise. I had the spice crusted seared tuna dish with crushed potatoes and gremolata from the dinner menu which was fresh and well seasoned and exceeded my expecations, I would definitely order it again. Their wine list has a nice selection of wines and the ambiance was great, it seemed to be a very popular Friday night spot. Their prices are a bit on the pricey side but what you would expect for the waterfront.

This place has a fabulous set up, I adore the modern decor and the extensive choice of wine.
Any place that has an open kitchen also gets more points from me!

The menu has something for everyone too.
I know they are mostly known for their wagyu burgers but to me when I go here the thing that impresses me most is the fish.
They seem to have their fish dishes down to perfection and there's just something about being close to the sea whilst eating seafood.

Great place for a date night!

Mondiall has the loveliest view of Table Mountain and a well-put together menu. The menu is, however, quite small so your options are limited. Our food was good but I found it to be a bit over priced. If you're looking for a pretty spot at the Waterfront, this is definitely the place to go! Book for a time around sunset to make your dinner experience extra great!

I've been to the main restaurant and been thoroughly underwhelmed so this review is of the quite exquisite burger bar. I really don't know how I didn't know about it before Mbali Msimang told me about it but it's one of the few things she's gotten right since we met. the chicken burger is literally the best burger I've ever had in my life and I don't even think chicken has any business being in a burger, that's just how great of a feat these burgers are. not to be outdone, the cheeseburger is also delightful and I would definitely recommend coming here a couple times; did I mention they run a 2 for 1 special until 5pm on weekdays?

My son had the Wagu burger - basic burger with cheese- R135. The burger pattie is to die for - melts in your mouth. I had the Malay Curry Lamb -this was so deliciously flavoursome R170. The Fish Taco was refreshing with crispy salad strips. We used entertainer vouchers so this greatly reduced our bill. Beautiful views of the harbour and Table Mountain. Makes a perfect setting for a romantic night out. Service was good. David Son

Had a beautiful evening out at Mondiall, our food was served promptly after order, we were pleasantly surprised as we did not have to wait long for our meals. The food was absolutely beautiful, I would definitely recommend the Braised Beef Shortrib the flavors of the pickled beetroot and the cucumber salad gave it an amazing flare, I loved how everything worked so well together, definitely love on a plate .. My partner ordered banana split for his dessert and it was everything awesome I couldn't believe how good it tasted, especially since I'm not a fan of cooked fruit. I had the salted chocolate tart , it was quite pleasing and gave a beautiful finish to my evening at Mondiall. Will definitely be visiting again soon.

Best chicken burgers I've have had in a while. I tried the burger at the main restaurant but this far surpasses that burger. It was juicy and very tasty. Definitely worth a try if you are in the vicinity. I had the chipotle chicken which had a nice tang to it will definitely give one of the beef burgers a go next time!

Week three of our Burger Challenge, which forms part of the #CTFoodChallenge that InstaEats Cape Town, Dine Guy, and I Love Foodies are organising, led us to a place at the V&A Waterfront, one that you wouldn’t necessarily associate with great burgers, but the fact that they have an adjacent burger bar should give you a head’s up. Of course this is none other than Mondiall, a true dining gem.

I recently visited Mondiall at the V&A Waterfront and fell in love with their Wagyu Beef Burgers. So when I had the chance to visit them again to try out their regular lunch menu, I was pretty excited. Tempted as I was to have the Wagyu Burger again (it’s that good), I decided to go a completely different route and have a whole new experience.

Overlooking the harbour and Table Mountain, is Mondiall, a brasserie-style restaurant with a touch of sophistication. It is simply beautiful at night with a breathtaking view as you watch the sun goes down.

The restaurant greets you with an open kitchen, huge high-ceiling and glass windows creating a relaxed ambience that puts you at ease the moment you enter the restaurant.

My choice for Mains was Braised Beef Short rib served with pickled beetroot and garlic buttermilk. A flavour sensation on the palate and the meat so tender and soft. It was delicious.

Hubby opted for the Wagyu Cheese Burger with cheddar, gherkins, unami ketchup and hand cut fries. The burger itself looks plain and simple but tasty, juicy and cooked to perfection.

The decadent Nutella cheesecake was superb and Salted Chocolate Tart a perfect combination of sweet and salty flavours - nothing like chocolate to satisfy the tastebuds after a delicious, flavoursome meal.

I try to do burgers at as many places as I can, because not everyone gets it right, so when you keep hearing one name pop up it's kinda a no brainer about giving it a go.  

Mondiall was thus next on my list for obvious reasons *the R135 waygu beef cheese burger being that reason* so we popped over last Saturday after a hike in the False Bay area somewhere ready to be amazed by this mouthful.Although the burger was filling, delicious, juicy, packed with pickles, onion and all the other frills the chips arrived to the table cold & I do feel the truffle {I think it was} in the tomato sauce served little to no purpose. Perhaps it'll be best to stick if next time I stick to the other menu items when sitting down and head out to their Burger Bar when a burger craving hits.

Mondiall has a great selection of craft beers on tap though, perfect summer chill spot when the thirst gets the better of you.

Mondiall is a really beautiful restaurant. It has a spectacular view of table mountain and on a clear day like today we chose to sit at a table outdoors. We were seated promptly and ordered drinks. The mission was simple, to try out the waygu burger! A generous portion of bread and butter was brought to our table, but 5 minutes later our burgers appeared.

This is a classic cheeseburger. The type that you'd expect from someone if you asked them to draw a picture of a cheeseburger. Or a cartoonist. Or a 3 year old. It's presented beautifully on a wooden board and half wrapped which I appreciated as I'm a messy eater.

The burger was delicious, I personally thought that the meat to bun ratio was a bit off, with there being slightly less meat. The patty was tender with a fresh bun and lettuce, tomato, cheese and gherkins. A classic burger that was done well and shone at being simplistic. I really enjoyed the fries, which were crispy but soft and tasty on the inside. Really delicious!

The service was good as well. I enjoyed how promptly we were served especially as we were very hungry. A must try for any burger lover.

I don't eat ketchup and so I couldn't remark on the unami ketchup although my friends enjoyed it.

I decided to try out the classic Mondiall burger. It was quite delicious and included matchstick fries on the inside which added a beautiful crunch to each bite. There isn't anywhere to sit and the nearest benches are covered in seagull poo... not the best place to enjoy your burger. Service was good.

I visited here for breakfast this morning. It was quite cold outside so we chose to sit inside but I can only imagine how nice it must be on a sunny day. I had the eggs benedict, which was really tasty and my eggs were poached perfectly. The real winner was the English Breakfast. It was huge and great value for money. The toast did let them down a little as it was quite hard but the great selection of breads made up for this. One of us who had the french toast was a little let down but the food overall was great and so was the service.

It was our first dinner in Cape Town. Very good food (wagyu burger & braised beef) the service was fine as we had nice bar staff, but our experience was ruined big time because of a very unpleasant manager "Franco". He was rude to us upon arrival and spoke as if he owned the place & had the right to pick & choose who he allowed in or not. Not to mention the horrible way he treated staff at the bar. To give him the benefit of doubt, we asked the staff if he was always like that - they said the stress of a busy dinner service made him that way.

Bottom line -
Come to Mondiall expecting amazing burgers, but book in advance especially if ur a big group. And give those boys a big tip!

MONDAY MADNESS!!! At Mondiall this means a 2 4 1 deal on starters, mains and desserts, needless to say I was extremely excited. I've heard great things about this restaurant and was ready to be wowed
Throughout the night we dealt with three different waitrons which I personally find to be confusing and unnecessary especially when the restaurant is relatively empty. The bill was incorrectly tallied up at the end of the night so if you are making use of the special make sure that the bill is correct.
The fish tacos were tasty and a good way to start the meal off. Ammaar Bawa, Tiyaarah Cloete and Waseem Dawood chose the wagyu beef burger as we had heard such good things, they unfortunately were disappointed. Their burger lacked flavour and was overcooked. I ordered their cape seafood risotto and really enjoyed the flavours. The portion was huge and could of fed two people. We were really excited about the chocolate tart and the panna cotta but unfortunately only one lived up to the hype. The chocolate tart was delicious, base was a bit hard but I can overlook that because the flavours was heavenly. The panna cotta was a let down, way to gelatinous and I had to settle for chocolate syrup rather than the coffee syrup that was advertised on the menu as they did not have stock.
Overall the meal was above average but I was the one persons who had a main they weren't disappointed with. I'll be returning for those fish tacos though

After reading great reviews, we decided to make a stop here for lunch today. We were greeted with a warm welcome, fresh bread and the sounds of Spain playing in the background.

To eat, I opted for the Mussels Marienere and Dario had the Wagyu beef burger with handcut fries. The mussels arrived with an amazing garlic aroma and was served with fresh bread to scoop up the yummy sauce at the end. Darios burger, as he explains, tasted 'gourmet and full of flavour'. He left feeling full but not sluggish.

As far as the menu is concerned, I do think a few more options could be added, maybe a patagonian calamari and another burger option.

Overall the atmosphere was busy, but I do think they could do something to create a more bustling environment as it felt slightly contrived and clinical. Otherwise we were pleased and satisfied

I decided to buy a great deal on Groupon for an anniversary dinner with my boyfriend. The service was great, ambience was lovely and the food very tasty. The portions aren't very big, but still satisfies the tummy. I had the curry and my partner had a chicken dish. Cocktails are also really good. I'd definitely go back and do recommend it. It was a cold evening so we sat inside but had a nice view of the harbour lights, but if the weather is good I'd definitely recommend a table outside.

I had the sirloin (medium rare) which I found nice but it was a bit chewy. The crispy hamhock starter was yummy and had a very interesting little taste.

Overall, the experience was lovely , the wine was good and I had fun. I recommend coming here with a big group of friends

Easily the best burgers in Cape Town !
Hands down.
We had our burgers to-go and ate them near the marine whilst looking at the view of Table Mountain, which was pretty romantic.
I really really think that their burgers are the best I've had in Cape Town.
I highly recommend it.

There are simply no words to describe the amazing experience that was Friday night dinner at Mondiall! From the minute we walked in, greeted by a super friendly hostess and being shown to our table as if we were movie stars, I knew it was going to be a great evening.

And I wasn't wrong! Thanks to the Entertainer's vouchers (yes, we did behave ourselves like cheapskates, we know) we indulged in starters and mains, giving dessert a skip because a stop at Crumbs and Cream before dinner had proven too tempting. But before we ordered, we were brought some freshly baked bread, which was genuinely freshly baked. Moist and warm from the oven.

Being indecisive about what to order for starters and wanting to get something light, we went with our waiters recommendation of the baby spinach salad, which we shared along with some bread. Although it doesn't sound like much (leaves, crispy onions and salad dressing), the combination of flavors worked beautifully and the textures were lovely, adding that extra bit of complexity to the dish.

For mains, we could not surpass the opportunity to sample their famous wagyu cheeseburger! And yes, it is as amazing as everyone says - fresh burger bun, moist, perfectly cooked patty, fresh ingredients, delicious chips and some good ol' tomato sauce. Although very simple, it was made to perfection and I'd definitely recommend it! I had the salmon, which was by far one of the best fish dishes I've ever had! Crispy skin, fish cooked to a medium rare perfection, all surrounded by a delicious artichoke purée. Yes, it doesn't sound appetizing, but trust me, if I wasn't in a public area I would've licked that sauce off the plate!

A special mention must go to our amazing waiter - Lee. He was super attentive, very friendly and helpful. He really knew what he was talking about, made the perfect recommendations. And madd us feel like royalty. Now that's what I call five star service!

Overall, wow... An amazing evening! I wish my wallet would let me eat here every night! Everything on their menu sounds good, looks amazing and tastes even better!

Top tips: Book in advance because they're usually quite full. Ask to be seated upstairs - it's a lovely, quiet setting, perfect for an intimate dinner. Do try the cheeseburger, you won't regret it!

Beautiful venue that has made its mark here. The Green Dolphin use to be here, and I never did think they could match up to it.

The breakfast we had here blew our mind away, and to be honest, so did the service.

Go and try it, it's fresh, delicious, and a place to experience Lezanne Janse Van Vuuren

Wow! What a beautiful location and what delicious food. The breakfasts were delicious but I must say the endive salad is by far the best thing we had. So many layers of flavor. Well worth a try! Loved the little touch of macaroons with the coffees. Well worth a visit :)

Was very skeptical to eat here - had a bad service experience in the past. The service this time around was very good and the view amaaazing!

Boyfriend said the burger was one of the best he has ever had. I had a quinoa salad which was also nice and fresh ☺️

Will return soon

I recently visited Mondiall at the V&A Waterfront and fell in love with their Wagyu Beef Burgers. So when I had the chance to visit them again to try out their regular lunch menu, I was pretty excited. Tempted as I was to have the Wagyu Burger again (it’s that good), I decided to go a completely different route and have a whole new experience.

We have made reservations for two, 10AM and arrived a tad early. Several staff came to greet us, including Ms Crystal Bezuidenhoud who was introduced as the PR Manager. Our waitron was Admire, who proved himself to be very efficient and friendly. After having been seated, we were offered drinks and we chose still water, which promptly appeared on our table. The breakfast menu was produced and my wife selected the Benedict option while I settled for a full English breakfast. As usual, we shared our food and there is agreement that both dishes were just top class. Dining at Mondiall is a classy affair. A fusion between classic and modern, tastefully decorated without being offensive in any way. Guests from any age group or culture should settle in with ease. We were seated outside, in full view of Table Mountain and there were neatly trimmed rosemary bushes directly adjacent and these gave off a most lovely fragrance from their blossoms. It just added to the romantic breakfast atmosphere. Our breakfast was served and the generous portions looked attractive and tasted really great. I also noticed that the olive oil was cold extracted and the balsamic vinegar wood matured, both hailed from Olyvenbosch, know for quality. To the more discerning palate, Mondiall will be a good choice. I cannot think of a better venue to just have a meal, enjoy life with friends or have a business lunch with clients or partners. The Mondiall Burger has become a celebrity in Cape Town, revered by both the elite and the skateboarders. There are options for the #LCHF #Banting generation as well as for vegetarians, Vegans, etc. Food allergies can be considered and menu items are coded for diary, gluten, etc. I honestly believe that our breakfast was one of the best meals that we had ever enjoyed at the V&A Waterfront.

Had a great lunch here, the signature fish tacos are highly recommended as well as the seared tuna. Large selection of drinks to choose from as well. Staff is very friendly and efficient. Great place to just savour the weather and watch the boats and people go by.

Loved the vibe sitting at the bar having a cocktail! Friendly and helpful staff. Great cocktails! The burgers that passed by looked great too 🍔 Mondiall offers breakfast, lunch and dinner. Thursday Ladies Night has a special discounted menu for dinner only. Make a reservation. Or try one of the Buger-Beer-Bubbly Pairing menus.

Best. Burger. Ever. Well, maybe not ever, but it's definitely worthy stopping by for. Soft bun, succulent/soft meat (medium), and Parmesan Truffle fries (yum). The menu is not overwhelming, and has a decent amount of variety to appeal to any group. I should also add, the seating options are diverse--indoor, outdoor, tables, and booths.

Breakfast at Mondiall's is a great way to start the weekend. We recommend the egg white omelette as a healthy start to any active day. Egg whites with chives, capers and feta. Be healthy. Be strong.

Not my first time at Mondiall. Greeted by very friend and accommodating staff. The waiter was very helpful and knowledgeable regarding the menu. Good food at a fair price. Ambience is great, music was ok, maybe a bit more "lounge" music would help. All in all, a good place to spend the entire evening...which we did.

Breakfast was really really good, except that one plate arrived cold while the other was piping hot. Loved the decor and it's proximity to the waterway where you could watch the pleasure boats coming and going if you're lucky enough to get a table outside. One little negative however that the waiter we had was rather dozy, disappearing to do his own thing from time to time. Highly recommended apart from the hiccups.

We went there without reservation and where lucky to get the last available table. The service was excellent and the food very tasty (we had tuna, risotto and mussels). It was pricey for SA, but vey good value for money for Cape Town's waterfront.
