I have been in the tourism and events industry since 1994. I have entertained and been entertained an unimaginable number of times over the years. BOTB rates as one of my personal top 3 experiences. The intimate 30 seater set-up is cosy (not stuffy!) and welcoming. The smiling faces on arrival made me feel like a regular, back for more. The level of service was up there from start to finish; yet never in your face. Each little course was a surprise and culinary delight. I have never ooh'd and aah'd so many times during a meal, wondering how the next course could possibly top the one before. But they did not disappoint; right down to the last crumb of the peanut butter cookie and Milo foam! Flavour flavour FLAVOUR! Thanks to the chefs and their teams for a memorable evening.

We were invited as part of a party of 12. What a spectacular evening. The best food and wine pairing I have experienced and tasted in a very long time! Long live Belly of the beast! Xxx

What an amazing experience! Anouchka & Neil are Alchemists Supreme! Wow Wow Wow

One of the best eating experiences I have had. Everything was delicious and the service was outstanding - warm, friendly and informative but never overbearing. Highly recommend.

My absolute favorite restaurant in Cape Town! We celebrated our wedding anniversary at Belly of the Beast earlier this year. The smallish space is very stylishly decorated and has an open plan plating area. Dinner starts at 7pm sharp for everyone,and no changes can be made to the set menu (unless you notify them of allergies beforehand) Very friendly, professional service, without being too chummy and obvious. The set menu is such great value for money (R599 per person) I LOVED every single dish, which is very rare, but the dessert was the overall winner. I love their no-nonsense approach to dining and we'll be back for every special occasion in the future
