What a beautiful setting! We went with friends of ours and were not disappointed. You must make a booking to eat there. We first enjoyed wine tasting. From there, we went to our lunch reservation. We were greeted by a friendly server.
Each person must choose any two platters minimum when eating at the restaurant. The portion sizes are perfect. Three of us choose starter, main and dessert and one chose two Desserts.
I started with the lemon ravioli and Gorgonzola cheese. It was delightful. The cheese was not overpowering at all. It was perfectly balanced.
The pressed lamb shoulder was my second choice and the jus was flavor packed rich goodness. The lamb was so tender.
My dessert was just as good.
We shared our food so each one could taste.
We will come back again. Amazing place.
Gorgeous place up in nature. Lovely inside and omg the food:-). Love the idea of having platters to share. We had the beef wellington platter. Bf loved it and he is not a mushroom eater (something wrong with the guy). The brocolli was amazing-i would've been happy with just a bowl of that.
Service friendly and quick. I had a glass of Haskell cab sav and him the Shiraz - both lovely.
So keen to go back to try the other platters
Edit:went back last night for dinner. Wow! Both salmon and beef cold starters were amazing. Pork belly main and lemon meringue otherworldly. Just wow
Stunning place! Food is Devine, wine is better!! Service is great! An absolute gem! We would rerun any day! Definitely in summer time, would love to enjoy wine and lunch on the veranda!
Love the idea of the sharing platters. Nice family style ambience, attentive and friendly staff. The beef wellington took a bit long but the food was definitely worth the wait...good wine too
Not only did the restaurant have an amazing view over all the vineyards, but the service was excellent and staff incredibly friendly. The menu is designed for the customers to order share plates. The food was tasty and fresh and i will definitely go back there for the experience again.
We had a wonderful lunch at Long Table. The food was fantastic and ambiance wonderful. Our waiter, Patrick was excellent. He definitely went out of his way to make our lunch memorable and his wine and food recommendations were spot on. Thank you and we will definitely be back.
What a pleasant surprise. Joined my friend and her 5 year old for lunch. By the time the kiddies fish and chips arrived,I was ready to forgo my meal because this meal was really good. Luckily the mains impressed me enough to leave the poor kid's meal alone. Great lunch spot.
I ate the oxtail and my boyfriend ate the pork belly. It was very delicious and very reasonable and we had a lovely time with family! Our waiter was extremely on the ball always ready to fill empty glasses and remove plates after our meal! The view at sunset is something a picture doesn't do justice of ;) thouroghly enjoyed the time here and definitely would recommend ... The waiting time was reasonable and sadly this place wasn't even fully booked .. Great and beautiful location - hidden gem

What a lovely evening we had at the Long Table.
Our server was incredibly friendly, engaging, and attentive. It is always such a better experience overall when you have an outstanding server. Our servers name was Josh and he helps our evening be so enjoyable.
Another plus was the view. It was rolling vineyards with sun kissed mountains as a backdrop. Beautiful on so many levels.
On the food side, I had the fig and Parma ham salad starter which was stunning. It was not too big, nor too small. For a main I had the duck breast. Is was soft with well paired side vegetables. It was not the best duck I have ever had in my whole life, however it was flavorful and well cooked. My husband had the oxtail which was soft, well seasoned, and tasty. There were also some other dishes that sounded fabulous.
We skipped dessert but there looked to be some yummy choices there as well.
He ambiance was relaxed and have the feeling of a small intimate dinner spot.
I don't have an specific negative comments, but maybe the set up of how you enter the restaurant could be thought through better, or just someone to direct you. It is possible we entered the wrong space, but I don't think so. We were a little unsure of where exactly to go, but our server quickly sorted us out.
If you are looking for excellent service and yummy food, although there is a seriously long list around the area, put the Long Table on it as an easy flowing place, and see what you think for yourself.
The food here is excellent and the setting is so beautiful! We had a seat right at the edge so we had uninterrupted view of the beautiful vineyards and surrounds! We had the calamari for starters which was fresh and very tasty! I had the pork belly for mains which was so so delicious and probably the best I've ever had! It had a lovely apple flavor! My mom had the oxtail which was very rich tasting but very tasty! Our waitress was also very friendly! I would recommend booking before eating here as it does get very busy but the food is superb!
Lovely atmosphere and setting.roaring fire on a rainy day. Service was excellent. Dishes were beautifully presented and very tasty restaurant week menu was a hit.
After an initial visit for wine tasting my wife and had to come back for lunch. From the spectacular wines, to the delicious lunch experience, to the magnificent setting - it was a feast.
The staff deserve a special mention as well, with Eddie and Fifi making us feel extremely welcome.
The lunch experience is made unique by encouraging patrons to experiment and try various small dishes. We enjoyed our time there immensely and will definitely be back.
Absolute perfection, & with the spectacular view it's one of my favorite restaurants. Small plates from 95 to 128 rand, & think two or three per person. Complimentary home-baked bread with herb hummus to start. Favorites were seafood bisque, roast lamb, deconstructed carrot cake (the first time I've had deconstructed anything that was better than the real thing). Amazing Weds-Thurs deal: complimentary glass of wine with any two plates.

What an absolute gem located at the foot of the Helderberg mountains. The views, food and wines are incredible! The perfect restaurant for long lazy summer lunches. They also have accommodation available!
Nestled in a valley facing the mountain drop, this place has spectacular view. One can sit indoors or outside but still experience the same sensational view of the vast vineyards or the sunset, while sipping on a chosen glass of wine , selected from the Premium or Lifestyle range. The food is superb, the staff always going an extra mile for clients to have a lifetime experience.
I loved the food especially the sashimi dish
Enjoyed the wine tasting
Loved the Estate as well
They sell these wine infused pop corn...to die for.
I will definitely come back.

Good wine paired with beautiful views and good food. Loved the starter and dessert (lemon tart) , the version main was a bit disappointing (overcooked). Overall great experience.
Lovely venue to spend a lazy weekend morning. Good brunch options. My partner had an issue with her food or it would have been five stars. Manager was on hand quickly to apologize and offered us a discount on our bill.
A group of ladies and I celebrated my mom's bridal shower on 10 October 2021. It was our first time visiting and we all loved the place. A huge thank you to Bianca and the team at Longtable Restaurant who accommodated us and for the excellent hospitality. She went out of her way to bring us extra plates for our cake and created a space for it. The vineyard is so beautiful and the food was of top quality and so delicious. The wine was so divine. I'm definitely going back soon.
Beautiful place with beautiful nature. Excellent service and fantastic friendly people. Will visit over and over again
