in the meantime

Loved everything we ordered, definitely don’t miss out on the Korean fried chicken, galbi and japchae! Also the mochi doughnut and matcha ice cream were perfect. Such a beautiful meal made by wonderful souls. We will be back to try the lunch menu!

A special place. I love coming in, slowing down, and enjoying a beautiful meal with hot tea. Dishes are carefully curated and prepared, while still feeling homey. I appreciate the thought that goes into every detail here. Don’t miss the dessert!

A pleasant dining experience, the food was good but the portions were rather small. The steamed and fried dumplings are a must, as well as the Matcha & white chocolate ice cream with red bean pastry.

There is a sense of calm intentionality at In the Meantime. The space is elegant, the atmosphere soft and unhurried. Each dish reflects careful sourcing and a respect for subtle flavour. It’s a beautiful, thoughtfully composed experience from start to finish and remarkably generous in quality for its price.

Authentic Korean Food. Sepial's has been on our list for quite some time, now that they are in Constantia its so much easier to visit as its 5km from our home. The Korean fried chicken and dumplings were my favourite. Great service with a personal touch when the owner came to check on our table.

This was the best Korean food in Cape Town for me. The food felt so clean but still delicious. We had the KFC and the Chicken Soup Dumplings. The KFC had an amazing crunch to it and the soup was hearty but surprisingly light and aromatic. The service is very good and it’s well priced as well. I will definitely be going again.

This is as good as independent, conceptually superb restaurants get - something Cape Town needs. Considered but light. Beautiful space. Excellent food.

Went to Sepial's last night with 6 friends. Friendly welcome from Eun, classic decor and just generally a relaxed atmosphere. I had the Beef Bulgogi & rice which was delicious. We shared various starters and desserts. No complaints at all.
