The meal was exactly what we were wanting on a Sunday evening - Faith and Richard ,the new management team are making a real difference to this local Plett restaurant .
We enjoyed the succulent and tasty ribs served with freshly cut and fried potato chips .
And a Pizza with a thin crisp base which was baked in a wood burning pizza oven , it had loads of topping with a good balance of flavour and freshness
Felicia is a great waitron, always friendly and caring about her customers
Well worth a visit

Unfriendly staff with unacceptable attitudes. Seated and then waited and waited and waited … to be served. Wine selection on the menu not available. Will not be back.

I had fond memories of Cornuti at the Heads in Knysna many years ago and was hoping for a similar experience. They found us a table and we ordered some drinks. The Cosmopolitan cocktail was not good and very watery.
We then placed an order for a salad and pizza. After 1 & a half hours my husband inquired where our food was as it took very long. I could see that the pizza area was struggling to cope but we should have been informed of the delay and kept up to date which was not the case.my husband salad was just cheese with radishes, very uninspiring. My pizza was fine but the mood was spoilt as my husband was upset for waiting that long so we left with take away instead. Best they pre-warn new arrivals that they waiting period is long as that way you manage expectations.

Linguine with 4 queen prawns ordered - very mediocre spaghetti with mini-prawns received - see photo - with no comment from waiter or kitchen. Tried to order dessert but none available other than tiramisu.
Service was poor - waiters inattentive and unfamiliar with menu. Longs delays, pretty shoddy.
Menu prices expensive - food and experience definitely not worth the money.

I’m not usually one to leave negative reviews as I’ve worked in the service industry for many years. But unfortunately our anniversary dinner wasn’t what we expected.
Before I say anything negative, the food was really delicious- but the service brought down the experience.

From the get go the waitress was very unfriendly and unwelcoming. We ordered our drinks and starters and the starter which said would be served with bread, was not. And when we asked if we could get some ciabatta as it mentioned on the menu, they said yes sure and it never came. Anyways.

And then when the food came I ordered another glass of wine to drink with the food ( I would have ordered It sooner if we had had anyone come to check on us). We asked 2 different people to bring the wine while busy eating, and it arrived while on my last bite of pasta. So this was disappointing because pouring a glass of wine isn’t difficult or time consuming.

It was not busy at all at the start of the meal and began to fill up at the end, so poor service at the start doesn’t really have an excuse- as I said, I’ve worked in hospitality for 5 years so I understand how things work and when bad service can be excused. But unfortunately tonight we were let down.

Paying R800 for two people to eat with no wine bottle etc. is not bad if it’s accompanied with good service. But when the service is poor and you go for a semi-expensive meal, it leaves a bit of a bad taste in your mouth.
