Big Blu Restaurant

We highly recommend this bar and restaurant located right on the edge of Blougat, a picturesque area in Mossel Bay known for it's crashing waves at high tide and tranquil swimming sessions during calmer tides Additionally, the world-famous zipline ends here, adding to it's appeal. We truly enjoyed the delicious platters and cocktails. A special mention goes to Lauren, the manager, who deserves a high praise. She is not only a gracious host but is also actively engaged with guests throughout their experience. Our waitress, Michelle, provided excellent service as well. Restaurant exceptionally clean. The cocktails were delightful, and the views from the outdoor deck are absolutely mesmerizing. Overall, this establishment offers a fantastic ambiance, great amenities, and a memorable dining experience.

Take a break from the heat and visit Big Blue. Watch the waves break over the rocks into the natural pools. Enjoy something to eat and a couple of cold ones!

Very poor experience. Have been visiting Mossel bay for years now. Every year the service grts progressivly worse. Last year we ordered buckets which had a layer of oil floating on our drinks. Waiters not friendly at all. Today waiter asked me if i could clean my spoon myself that she took from another table. After waiting for my coffee fir 30min. Waiter doesn’t want to help, looks like you are an inconvenience. Didn’t even bring menus for us to view. Very poor.

This restaurant has a outside section for when the weather is good and an indoor section for when the weather isn’t that great. They have an awesome smoking section with a selection of swings, bar tables and chairs and lounge type chairs. It’s low key and a great place to have a sundowner. The service was fast and friendly. It’s an awesome location next to the ocean and with a view of the lighthouse and cave.

Big blu restaurant had a seafood platter for one special (R175) which included your choice of free beverage. This restaurant is located on the shoreline with the small aquarium below and zip line across. We had a table next to the fireplace, which created a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The service was quick and friendly. The food portion was large and enjoyable. My calamari was a little bit chewy, but my wife's calamari was perfect. Will visit again when in the area.

Bit disappointed in this place, had higher hopes. They were out of a few things, including any milkshakes. And they do not serve sushi anymore if anyone wanted to know (like someone posted). The mussels plate was extremely small for the price. A few tiny ones for R80, but one of the mussels did not even have anything in, just an empty shell. Atleast our server was super nice and fast and the views are gorgeous.🌊

I just had the WORST experience ever in this restaurant. I made an order that totaled to 250 R and the manager knowing we did not have the menu scamed us by charging 380 R (130R extra which is 50% above the regular price). As we were paying in cash, he was probably trying to keep the extra for himself. We asked him to give us back the difference and he tried to convince us that what he charged was right until he finally gave up and gave us back the money. He never gave us our receipt, when we paid he just draw a VERY clear 380 indicating it was the total. How shameful that a restaurant who lives from tourist activity would take advantage of them to scam clients. DO NOT GO!

Very very bad experience, once we arrived there was no waiter at the door we needed to look for a waiter to help us. Once she arrived she had an attitude and was rude, we continued to order our food, the beef and calamrai burger has no sauce on the burger, the hake was overfried, they had the order wrong and one of our people had to wait an additional 20 minutes while everyone already had their food. The mussels’ sause was thick and looked gross, uneatable with lumps in it and it was cold. When we called the manager she approached us laughing at us with the waiter and was rude when we told her about the bad quality. The food is also very expensive for the small amount that you get.
