Absolutely amazing views, cocktails are too delicious and the new chef makes the best food. Gourmet everything! I would highly recommend for every visit to the Garden Route and for locals too!

This restaurant has the best position on the Indian Ocean in this part of the world. The style is quirky and the food is very good.

All the walls are glass! So the view is incredible. Don't go if you suffer from vertigo! The breakfast is super! It seems that the other meals are pricey. Some common puddings are put forward with a french name and you pay lots! There is a nice deck to have sundowners on and admire the sunset. Worth a try!

Something about the ethereal "views" of the sea, the outstanding quality of the food, and the attentive service produced a synergistic effect of sorts resulting in the best dining experience we had ever had in South Africa (and we used to live...

I don't like my vegetables to be tougher than my steak! The steak was fine but price reflected the management's confidence in the position but certainly not the quality of the meal we had.

The spectacular view did attract us despite the Bad Reviews here in Trip Advisor! We wanted to give it a try! It was Not Worth it! The Restaurant was Not Full, only 3 tables were occuppied. But the Service staff was hardly seen at all, the waiters just Took care of their own tables without looking to the neighbour table... More

The views are absolutely breath taking. The restaurant is beautifully laid out, and the staff are friendly and attentive. The menu is mediocre, along with the food. But even if you just go for drinks or a light lunch, the views are worth the visit.
