The food is amazing with great flavours, I would recommend the hake and calamari and or the seafood fettuccini.. hospitality is good... we didn’t make a booking but luckily there is still space on the veranda, plus side is that it is covered.

Recently visited the Fat Fish for dinner whilst on holiday. We didn't have a reservation, but the hostess politely said she could assist us but we have two hours to have dinner. We were satisfied with this arrangement and even though we thought it was going to be a rushed meal, it was not. We had starters as well as mains with much ease and plenty of time to kill in between. Since we were visiting, we decided to try somewhere else for dessert.
Starters we had the white bait accompanied by black garlic aioli and the cajun baby squid. The squid was absolutely delish. My son opted for a beef burger, daughter had the kids fish and rice. Hubby opted for the prawns (best ever) and I took the recommended dish - Parmesan crumbed kingklip with smoked chilli butter. We were not disappointed.
Our waiter was very pleasant and friendly. Will definitely visit again when in Plet. View is awesome from the outside deck or even take a seat inside by the window. Don't forget to try out their different gins...you wont be disappointed.
Fish and chips was amazing! Good old school fish and chips :)
Really awesome spot with incredible food and great service. The Chilli Chocolate mousse was out of this world. Often full and requires booking except for the outside area where you can just pitch up and hope there is a spot available.
Always consistently great food especially the fish dishes and satisfactory service . Always busy and often difficult to get a reservation. My favorite in Plett.
The parmesan kingklip dish was absolutely sensationally delicious, hands down best kingklip dish i've had in Plett. Definitely worth a try if you're here.
One of my favourite experiences this holiday. We arrived at 8 and sat down half an hour later but it was so worth the wait. The menu is interesting, not just your average fish & chips. Great variety of craft gins & wines 🍷. I had the platter for 1, which is probably the best seafood platter I’ve ever had. The prawns 🦐 were big & plump, mussels in tomato curry sauce and the crispy calamari were highlights. My husband had a delicious rump with mushroom sauce, which was great too.
The service staff and managers/hostesses were excellent! Attentive, intentional and helpful - despite being crazy busy. Huge compliments to the chef and kitchen team as well, I couldn’t fault the food in anyway!
Definitely above average restaurant in terms of service and food. The service is consistent and friendly, the food is very tasty from the main menu items to the sushi options. One of my picks in Plett to come here for a good meal and service.
Excellent location with beautiful sea views. We went for an early lunch and the restaurant was not busy. The service was excellent. The waiter was friendly and attentive and knew the menu well and recommended food and wine. The seafood is excellent. My daughter ordered steak which was not great. The desert menu looks amazing and we will definitely try it next time.
Lovely meal. What was very impressive was the service. The restaurant was packed yet we were served quickly, the food arrive shortly after we placed or order. We were amazed at the level of service in this very busy setting.
Amazing seafood platter so fresh and cooked to perfection the grilled fish was melting in my mouth and the calamari delicious with to butter sauce and shrimp and mussels also were tasty.
The sirloin steak unfortunately wasn’t good very chewy and hard and the sauce not my liking tasted sour.
The service was excellent the manager was very friendly and welcoming although it was very busy.
Highly recommend!
Good view !
Especially bikers and travelers. Cold beer and warm atmosphere.
Tasty food, sushi and salads.
Price little bit high.
Wonderful restaurant! The food is incredible and the views are amazing.
We had oysters and croquetes to start. Followed by the seafood platter for one, kingklip with fries and Tagliatelle with pesto. Everything was perfect!
Yum yum yum !!!’ A fantastic experience for the second time. This fish is literally the best we have had. We came back because 2.5years we had the best fish and today you didn’t let us down! Absolutely incredible! Excellent service to top it off. Thank you and keep it up. We look forward to Decembers visit.

Had Dinner with my Husband for a weekend away in Plett, all I can say is wow!
Amazing flavors and great quality seafood. The Fresh Kingklip is a must! The Pistachio meringue Dessert was also top tier.
Would definitely recommend and would visit again if we are in the area.
