Owner's description
The stalwart on Kloof Street’s restaurant scene is named after the local legend of Van Hunks, who got into a smoking contest with the devil and lost – thus causing the misty “smoke” around the mountains. It’s charming and relaxed, with two fireplaces and a deck for warmer days. The menu is a South African celebration – with everything from peri-peri chicken livers and rump steak to Cape Malay bobotie and springbok shank.

I love the outdoor seating area! Drinks were fantastic - The pumpkin ale topped with cinnamon and spicy mango cocktail was just what we needed on a sunny winters day in CT! But wait, there's more ... the ribs and prawns are to die for! I would definitely recommend getting a plate of each and sharing amongst the table! I also loved the chunky chips! They have great specials throughout the whole week! Great spot!

This is one of our fave spots to go for Sunday night burger specials! One of the few places that does a a decent veggie burger (on special)!

It was an ok place to go to, food is good, fireplace is warm, service is slow and the portion sizes are terrible. The owner did come and explain after we complained and did try and sort it out, but I can't say I will go back. There are too many eateries in Cape Town to be bothered with one that has bad portions and useless waiters.
