Another top-class restaurant overlooking Gordon's Bay in the distance, situated high up on the Hottentot Hollands mountain range. This is not only a fine-dining restaurant, but also a bistro/pizzeria fulfilling the needs of those with a limited food budget. Following a superb wine tasting we ordered pizzas that could not be faulted. Thin baked crusts and a wide choice of toppings. We were able to order a pizza without cheese for one of our party who is allergic to cheese. The full menu has a pricing structure and food options at every level, including a children's menu. There is a 2 or 3 course wine pairing menu which we will partake and review later, but from what we heard from other diners, we don't expect to be disappointed. Its Italian ownership and overall influence is reflected in both its food as well as its wines. The setting is superb and the magnificent new building, architecturally superb, housing the restaurant and wine tasting facility further enhances the continental feeling. An exciting addition to the dining out options of the Helderberg Region.
