Design and ambience…
The 250-seater restaurant was designed to offer different experiences for their varied clientele. Whether you’re having a quick business lunch, sundowner drinks, having a relaxed family meal or a sophisticated dinner to celebrate a special occasion, we will make sure your experience with us is a memorable one.
The restaurant patrons are catered for through creative natural demarcations – upstairs and downstairs spaces, the outside covered patio areas and the relaxed lounge area which provides an ambient space to have a pre-dinner drink or end the evening off with a nightcap. The wine room was designed to give you the feeling like you’re in a private tasting room at a wine farm in the heart of the Cape.
The use of warm and inviting colours throughout the restaurant and natural elements like the stone columns and wood cladding add natural warmth and elegance to the restaurant.
