"Located in a small West Coast fishing village, this breezy, beachfront venue seats only about 20 guests per seating and pursues a strict sustainability ethos, drawing on locally caught fish and shellfish, foraged herbs and succulents, and rock‑pool seaweed. The unfussy, beachy vibe belies adventurous tasting menus that introduce regional specialties like springbok and bokkom (salted, dried mullet), and the historic 130‑year‑old building sits atop an archaeologically significant cave site—guests can also join guided walks through the endangered Strandveld vegetation when available." - Nicholas DeRenzo
