First time visit and suitably impressed. This is how a restaurant should be run - attentive but unobtrusive management and waiters.

Good menu selection, including some old favorites that aren’t that popular anymore. Fantastic wine list, with a great selection by the glass - many restaurants could use this wine list as an example of how to do it right.

Our waitress was knowledgeable and highly proficient. Well-heeled crowd, who were obviously enjoying themselves on a Wednesday night.

My spaghetti vongole was fantastic but could have been a slightly bigger portion (more clams!). The SO devoured her line fish (kabeljou) and pronounced it to be excellent (even though she’s a salmon fan).

No time for dessert, unfortunately, so we will have to go back.

VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Ordered on Ubereats - the food was fantastic, and as good as the newlands branch. The sushi fiend gave it 5* and devoured it.

The food may look expensive when compared to other options, but it is most definitely worth it.

Highly Recommended

Come here for your SUGAR CRAVINGS!

Variety of soft-serve ice cream that’s dipped in chocolate. Served in a cone or a tub. We went for chocolate + chocolate - great combo.

Very sweet and very good. Makes a huge chocolately mess 😂😂😂

Coming back for the banana boat.

Reasonable prices for ice cream.

Lovely seating outside on their stoep on a warm summer evening.

Unfortunately, the salmon linguine pasta was not great and less than half of the substantial portion was eaten.

My spinach and ricotta cannelloni was below average and completely overwhelmed by the (unwashed??) spinach. The sauce tasted like it contained only tomato and no bechamel.
I couldn’t finish it.

Even the focaccia was underwhelming and too heavy on the garlic. Also, not finished, which must be a first.

Lastly, please note that the waiters will clear the entire restaurant around you while you are still eating, even carrying the tables away. This is an ongoing issue in cape town restaurants and completely disrespectful of paying customers.

NOT RECOMMENDED

5* for the pizzas, which were outstanding. The fancy margarita was astonishingly good and my napoli was superlative.
The person in the kitchen definitely knows what they’re doing.

Service was not great - tables left dirty after guests left; plates not cleared; difficulty getting a bill; difficulty paying the bill - after signaling that i wanted to pay, the SAME waiter brought me another bill, instead of the card machine.

VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR THE PIZZA
