    Excellent Restaurant

    We live in Jeffreys Bay, but often visit Knysna. This is definitely the best dinner spot in town. Always have had good food and service. We have directed many of our visitors from overseas there when they visit. Never have heard a complaint. Enjoy

    Dinner for two after 4 weeks in Southern Africa (away from the coast) keen to try the renowned oysters !

    Great service and food! Knysna oysters did not disappoint! Seafood platter for two was delicious with no deep fried additions! Great sauces to accompany each fish!And The Dream Cake with Aramula Cream!

    Just acceptable

    This is a popular mainly fish restaurant. Our food was perfectly edible but there was nothing outstanding. The service was friendly and well placed. Prices were moderate. We would not rush back.

    One of the Best restaurant we visited this holiday!

    A bit more expensive than we were used to in SA, but it was worth it - amazing fish dishes and a good place to try oysters. Everything is fresh and you can taste it!

    Out of all the restaurants in Knysna this is one of my favourites - been on and off over 15 years and not much changes - why should it - excellent food in convivial surroundings is all one needs.
