Stopped for a quick lunch on Easter Monday. We requested quick service as our tour bus was leaving in 45 mins. Did not disappoint- friendly staff, quick service and delicious food. Caesar salad with delightfully spiced chicken paired with a Sauvignon Blanc was perfect! Loved the passing street entertainment and would happy return.
The food, service and location at Cafe du Vin is exceptional. We were a small group, but all meals arrived timeously and everyone absolutely enjoyed their choice. I had the hake and chips and I can say without a doubt that it is possibly the best hake and chips I have ever had at a restaurant (I'm a retiree so I have had many fish and chips). My wife shared this sentiment. Well done to the management team, chef and staff and be proud. Keep up the great experience that you are delivering. Lastly, the fish was lightly battered, crispy, pan hot from the first bite to the last and the chips were crispy. Enjoy.
Okay so I do believe there Is false advertising going on here. I highly do not recommend this restaurant. The food is really not that good, the lamb was the worst me and my friend have ever had…. They seem like everything will be nice but the food is not that good and mainly in quality 4 of us went there and 3 Of us were sick with a stomach bug from this place. In terms of service it was just okay but I had reserved the outside upstairs patio and the host lied to me and said it is under construction and it wasn’t but he made us eat down stairs patio because they clearly didn’t set it up for my reservation. Out of all restaurants and places in Franschhoek to go I would not go here this is a tourist trap where the chefs passion has died. 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND
My friends and I stopped in for dinner, and sat outside. The service was basic. Our table didn't seem to get the attention that others did. I'd hate to think it was because we looked differently. My steak was ordered medium and my friend's was ordered medium-well. They were both served with the opposite temperature. Drinks took longer than necessary when the business wasn't that busy, and the waiters didn't seem to know what came with a certain dish. Lastly, dessert took about 15 minutes to come out and was underwhelming. Overall, the atmosphere is nice and quaint, and the food was good taste wise. Not sure if I'd return with so many other options available, but I can say that I went.
