Decided to play tourist in Cape town and took a drive to Hout Bay stopping the here and remember the calamari - it did not dissapoint and still the best in the cape - service was great and so was the fish and chips

The is an old favourite and we managed to get in for an early lunch during the festive season, with our respective mothers and my son. I had determined that everyone was to have the famous calamari, but it was not to be. My wife...and I had it - and as usual it was tender and delicious - just sublime. My son had the prawn and calamari pan (he's had it here before) and demolished it. The grannies both had linefish - yellowtail. Now, linefish can often be a bit dry, but this was moist and very tasty (I did quality control), so the grannies cleaned their plates. The accompanying veggies were pronounced to be cooked "just right" - high praise from the grannies. To finish off, one granny wondered what Eton Mess was, and after finishing a huge portion, decided it is a new favourite. I saw a review that called this eatery a "tourist trap" - it is anything but that. Good friendly service, wonderful food, relaxed atmosphere, prices that are very reasonable (no tourist should complain). Frankly it is a restaurant that appears to have weathered the fickle Cape Town eating scene for years - which in itself is an achievement. We'll definitely return.More

The Chapman’s Peak Hotel restaurant is always good. Great calamari, decent service and fantastic chips. We came for lunch, got exactly what we’d been yearning for and left satiated. It’s a good option for sure!

Views, vibe, fantastic food and the best calamari ever! Energetic and popular, don’t allow reservations so get there early to make sure you can get a table with a view!

Nice setting, affordable, good variety. Calamari is a must. Had the peri chicken for mains- it was ok. Served in a pan - didn't like the metallic taste it creates.

I love going here for their famous Calamari in the pan. The drink selection is a lot of fun too. And the views are great if you get the front corner table on the patio (smokers section).

R900 for 3 plates of cold fish and chips! And 2 glasses of wine and a small salad… Seriously! On a cold Misty afternoon on a cold terrace the last thing you want is COLD FOOD. Please explain to me why you cannot put hot...food on hot plates and bring the food hot? Your a restaurant not a cafe. Get your stuff together guys, get your kitchen staff to taste the food and understand WHY! Education… coz if not you are gonna loose good customers! NOT HAPPY!More
