    Our best meal in Knysna

    I had come to think that Knysna was all mediocre food and shocking service.. but that was the overcrowded and underserved waterfront/Thesen Island. We walked into the Anchorage restaurant on a whim, and had a wonderful meal. The staff were all absolutely fantastic- great job,...More

    Fantastic service , food not as appealing

    First off I must say that the service in my opinion is exceptional, unfortunately far better than the food on this occasion. The setting was cozy and the wine recommended to us by the waiter was excellent but it could not make up for an...More

    Very ordinary

    Went with friends and had an average experience all round. Oysters were a bit milky, one had to be spat out. Prawns were fine, about the same as I would make at home. And the waiter was very cool but he forgot the chips until...More

    Awesome Seafood, awesome service!

    If you are looking for a great Seafoood-place in Knysna you should visit the Anchorage Seafood Restaurant. The oysters were perfect and the fresh caught line fish was just great. Hendrick, our waiter was absolutely amazing. We definiteley recommend this place! Cheers.

    Not the best

    Food was ok, however we didn’t like the waiter who clearly tried to upsell as much as he could to us For example ‘are you sure you want the 225g fillet steak, if you go for the 300g it’s much better and it’s not on...More
