De Vette Mossel is a very special place where you pay and just eat as much as you can. Its meat and fish and deserts its something for all. There is a huge place for the kids to play which is a bonus for me....The food is tasty and never stops there is no shortage as soon as a certain food is finished they just bring a new one. This place is also open air restaurant with sand floors and takes you straight back into the West Coast. The prices at the bar is very good with delicious cocktails. You must do a reservation before going as its not always open and needs a certain number of people before opening. This place is on the beach so the views and sound of the sea is just fantastic.More

You have to keep an open mind when visiting this restaurant/ beach cafeteria. The food is very South African and mostly seafood except for one other dish and the sides. You have to get up and get your own food as it's available. They advertise...different 'courses' but it's really just different dishes that are served at different times. The food is good, the bread delicious. Make sure to take beach shoes, don't over-dress and go with friends that like an adventure;)More

De Vette Mossel is the coolest place ever! My boyfriend & I went because I saw it on "Boer soek n vrou" & I was like if I'm ever in this area I have to go! We got there and payed at the door. You...get a complimentary glass of wine. The R320 per person is money well spent! The sweet potato is to die for! Here is my advice: 1. You have to make a reservation! 2. Take your family, friends, kids, oupa & ouma 3. Go hungry! 4. Take your own wine, beer, cooldrink etc. (The bar is quite expensive and there is no corkage) 5. BE ON TIME! 6. and the most important (I cannot stress this enough) TAKE YOUR OWN CUTLERY!!!! (No cutlery provided) 7. Don't eat too much bread (although it is delicious) leave space for all the amazing seafood! 8. Take lots of pictures!More

We came for dinner on New Year's eve and were expecting great things. Unfortunately we were bitterly dissapointed and ended up leaving before the end of the meal as we were so unimpressed. The concept of the meal is great fun - come with your...friends, dine on the sand, bring bottles or buy at the bar and the food is cooked on the braai infront of you. As a non-Afrikaans speaker it was a little difficult to understand what was going on beyond the intro, where they did speak English. That said, when the food was ready there was a huge free for all where people pushed and shoved you out of the way to get at food (yes really!). The first course of food was bread which was delicious. The food went down hill from there. Mussels were brought round and were really dry. Snoek was slimy and I didn't even go for the potjiekos which my husband said wasn't great. The squid was OK but nothing special and on the rubbery side. The dessert was melon - and no alternatives offered (I'm highly allergic) - we gave up at that point and left hungry. While this is meant to be all you can eat, we really didn't want to eat the food as it wasn't good. We weren't the only table to leave early. The table next to us left even before we did. On the plus side, there are lovely views of sunset from the beach. But unless you have a window seat or popped outside the property you wouldn't be able to see it. To be fair it probably a great place to come to catch up with friends over wine and beer but not a place you come just for the food. We got sucked in by the positive reviews which would have been more about the atmosphere rather than the food and we came here expecting a decent seafood feast. It's a feast in the sense of quantity but sadly not quality.More

This is a restaurant or more a beach lapa with a unique theme and character. The owner and "braaier" is the anchor of this place. A bubbly and large personality. He presents the menu, venue and "rules" in an unique West Coast manner, that almost...make you think you get a show with food. Food is reasonable and is worth the value if you can control your "lust" for the awesome bread. There's a cash bar and enough play space for children.More

This was truly an experience! From the exquisitely themed decor to the animated host (there's no other way to describe him other than saying he's a host), this place is amazing. The food is superb and you'll struggle to eat everything! Be careful of the..."potbrood" - it is the most delicious evil and you'll easily stuff yourself with it before all the courses have been served. The atmospheer is relaxed, yet also vibey and energetic. You don't feel as if you're at a restaurant, it rather feels as though you're visiting your very entertaining uncle who's an excellent cook! You almost want to thank them for their hospitality, because it really feels like you're a guest at a really cool party. It's definitely worth the money!More

People.... Get ready to kick your shoes off and relax! Local is soooo lekker, and this place is it! Definitely worth the booking, waiting etc... Love this place!!!
