Awesome spot with great food. Loved the Ostrich Shank, Crumbed chicken and malva pudding. The best part was our awesome waiter Gino. Served us quickly with great communication and was an awesome guy, making our experience 10x better.

A very popular restaurant that our guesthouse recommended and secured a table for us as they are booked up most evenings. Food was excellent as was the service and the final bill.

Simply amazing. With the low price tag I wasn't expecting the world but was absolutely blown away with the quality and quantity of food when it arrived.

We had a wonderful evening meal here. The hubby had the schnitzel stack and it was amazing! I had the topped baked sweet potato. It was absolutely the best thing I have ever had. Sweet, lightly spices, veggie terrific. Prices are very reasonable.

Cute restaurant, lots of interesting decor and a nice setting. It’s very popular so very busy, this meant service was a bit hectic, long waits for drinks and to order dessert, so not one for a quick dinner. Service was very friendly though, lots of...apologies so maybe just need a few more hands, and they called our taxi driver when we were finished which was really nice. The food here is incredible and definitely makes the slow service forgivable, it’s a very big menu, we got the ostrich steak burger and the ostrich shank. Both were really tasty and would recommend, especially the shank with the most delicious buttery mash, even on a 30 degree evening it was delicious.More

Pleasant garden setting. Reasonably priced good wholesome food and very pleasant and efficient staff. Always my goto place in Oudtshoorn for a quick stopover bite to eat.

A most delightful dinner was had by all four of us. As a tour guide I asked if they could serve a starter of roosterkoek with olive oil and a little chopped garlic - no problem at all, and was enjoyed immensely by my guests...from USA. We then had the most delicious lamb chops with proper boere style veggies. So so yummy!! I will definitely be taking guests there again. Thanks Nostalgie for a wonderful dinner.More

We had booked this restaurant in advance as it was near to our hotel. The food was excellent. The first night that we visited the service was a little slow and the waiter was not very animated. The food however was excellent. The melk tart...was the best I tasted during my stay in South Africa. We decided to go back the second night and sat outside. The service was better. Would definitely recommend and would also recommend booking so as not to be disappointed as it is a very popular restaurant.More

Wow, possibly the best meal of a 3 week trip to Namibia and South Africa and at a very reasonable price. We had the Ostrich Steak and Ostrich Shank and they were both delicious. Highly recommended

Recommended this by our guest lodge host and it wasn’t a disappointment. Waiter was attentive and helpful. The food was amazing. After eating in restaurants for over a week, we loved the “home cooked” meal and veges. The ostrich was yummy, chicken tower and lamb...chops were all scrumptious. The ladies in the kitchen were a delight and should be given more praise…we loved this restaurant and would recommend to anyone. Thank youMore

Stopped here while travelling through Oudtshoorn. We got seated at a very pleasant garden table. I had the ostrich stroganoff (delicious) and my partner had an ostrich burger (huge patty!)

I'm sure they do. But you can also buy a cloth one. That's what I did when my son was a baby.
