Our gasthouse recommended Kaai 4 and we were happy we went. It is a funky, down to earth place right on the water. My spouse had the hake, I ordered the meat basket, both with roosterkoek. Enjoyed both plates, great braai!More

You get what you pay for, the atmosphere will not be for everyone's taste, but we loved it. If you want lekker Roosterkoek in "blikbord" with cold bear and pleasant atmosphere wile overlooking the bay, this place is for you.

Called in for a bite to eat as we were in the area, the couple we were with had been a few times before it's sometimes difficult to get Vegetarian options in a culture of the Braai! Choose the roosterkoek with cheese and tomato which...was the best option. Situated on the harbour front next to Santos beach there is a business around this place. Open grille braai's in the centre of the complex means you can watch your food being constructed.More

We have visited Kaai 4 on numerous occasions and always found it to be one of the nicer spots in Mosselbay. We were very disappointed this time. The mussel pot was very stodgy and very lemon tasting. We waited around 20 minutes for a coffee...and after it arrived , my wife realized that the milk was sour. The taste of the ribs on the meat platter was also not very pleasantMore

A must for authentic cuisine. I found this place as I was searching for an authentic ’Braai’ it looked great but it had mixed reviews, so I was apprehensive. I Decided to just go with my original plan and I am so glad I did!...It was a fabulous chilled setting with sand underfoot, wine in tin cups, great tunes played and utterly delicious food. The only thing that might put people off is the time it took to come but as it says on entry ‘If you want fast food go to Mcdonalds!’More

A large group of us came here as some of the group had been here before and really enjoyed it. First impressions were very good. It has a Caribbean feel to it with sand for flooring, bright colourful furniture and a picturesque seaside location. The...braai was going strong and the smells were good. We arrived early afternoon and it was about a third full but the atmosphere was good. I don’t know if it was just the size of the group but the service was hit and miss as was the food. I couldn’t complain about my food, I had braaied hake with roosterkoek which was very good, my wife also enjoyed her curried mince with roosterkoek. Others in the group were not so impressed including one who had recommended the restaurant. All in all a pleasant enough experience but we certainly ate better in SA.More

Very, very disappointed we both had fish and salad. Worst meal I have had. In SA you hardly ever get a bad meal. After reading the reviews I really expected more the salad was no more than some garnish not a salad at all. Sorry...maybe I am just used to CT. and the excellent food we get there. Will nor recommend this to anyone Kingfisher is so much betterMore

Nice venue and view, best rooster koek, meat is bad, served under done, cold and with a bad basting sauce over the meat. Only hake fish over the coles available on the menu. The owner did remove the meal from the bill. Results didn’t meet...the expectations, will not visit again.More

We planned a visit on the evening of xmas-day. Being that day, we checked the night before so that they’re open. No problems. When arriving at 19.30 we met a sign saying “close at 20.00”. The helpful owner explained that the staff wants to be...with their families this evening. I respect that. But the reason for my low rating is that the staff should know their opening hours. Can’t rate the food for obvious reasons but I’m sure it’s good, and the place looks really nice situated right next to the sea with a really relaxed atmosphere.More
