My wife Sharon and I spent a night at the Breede River Lodge in January, which was wonderful, and that evening we had supper at the on-site Pili Pili Restaurant, which was awful. There weren't many options available for supper in Witsand on the Sunday...night we stayed there, so we decided to eat at Pili Pili. Our first observation was how pricey the food on the limited menu was, but as we had already determined that there were no other places to go, we decided to stay. Considering that we were the only customers in the restaurant at the time, the food took quite a while to arrive, and we certainly cannot say that it was worth the wait. I had an extremely bland vegetarian pizza, which cost a whopping R144, and Sharon had Eisbein which she described as dry, hard and tasteless. The Eisbein was served with a small soggy salad which our waitress admitted to us had been prepared earlier that morning, more than eight hours before it was served to Sharon. Needless to say, we did not finish our food, and we did voice our complaints very strongly to our waitress, but whether she passed our comments on to the restaurant manager or not, I do not know. But what I do know is that our first visit to Pili Pili will certainly be our last one, and based on our experience, I would definitely not recommend the restaurant to anyone visiting Witsand.More

Covid definitely sent this one down the tubes , if you want to have drinks and a view then this venue is awesome. Ordering food is challenging and the service staff are poorly trained with no visible management. All the food is served in takeaway...containers and the menu is very limited.More

Had a breakfast there this morning. The omelets were great but the manageress were very pushy and loud for starters. The wine list is extremely expensive and so are the food. We sat inside just to be surprised that the manageres "doctors" a "pasient" at...the table next to us and loudly "educate" the patient about cuts, organs, exct. This all while we are trying to eat. We could not enjoy our food in a relaxing atmosphere and yes while eating she used first aid material full of blood on the table next to us. So sorry for the next person sitting at that table in this restaurant. The rest of the staff were either also just as loud or very much quite, there is a very noticeable conflict situation among the staff. We paid and left as fast as possible. On our way out two elderly ladies also made a comment about the unprofessional manageress.More

Another great seafood meal,service and excellent cape wines at this perfect venue looking onto the beautiful Breede river

Always the same . Consistent , food , service and atmosphere . Great setting and views ! Rather windy at times !

Relaxed setting with an amazing view of the Breede river. They run daily specials and had some wonderful artists performing there. It is worthwhile following them on Facebook.

In a word the unit 409 assigned to us wast disgusting. TV did not work, bathroom full of mold, cobwebs and just filthy. Door could not lock, and was difficult to open, cupboards falling apart. I did complain about it and I was told that...it is privately owned. Not good enough, surely the resort upholds some sort of standard after all it is their reputation at stake. The restaurant Pili Pili was wonderful though.More
