Cape Point Vineyards

Went to Cape Point Vineyards for my birthday lunch on Sunday. I enquired on the phone about the children’s menu and I was told it is the same as the afternoon's Children’s menu. When we arrived for lunch, that menu was not available and the...male waiter that came to serve us had terrible client service manners and argued with me. Another waiter was assigned to us and gave us other options for children. We ordered starters, I ordered the cheese soufflé which was served on a jus that made it very soggy by the time I started eating (we had to wait for my daughter’s lunch to be served for 8 minutes after we were served). The presentation was lovely but the chef added so many chives to the dish that they were overpowering and all I could taste was the onion flavor of the chives on a soggy soufflé, not even the Parmesan flakes were strong enough to be tasted over the chives flavor. My husband ordered the trout which was ice cold (it was not a trout salad but a salmon trout that was supposed to be warm on the outside) and the champagne veloute sauce was runny and tasteless. My daughter who despite her sadness of not being able to have fish or calamari was accommodating and decided to order “beef and chips”(as offered by the waiter). She was served the smallest piece of meat I have ever seen at a restaurant and it was hard, chewy, with grizzle and medium rare (she was not asked how she wanted her meat done), she ate her meat and chips with tomato sauce/ketchup (there were no salad, vegetables, or even garnish to accompany the meal) and it gave her a bad stomach ache. After this terrible service and food, we just decided not to order mains or dessert but leave upset with a ruined birthday lunch.More

We booked a picnic, but was sadly disappointed. On arrival it seemed very chaotic as there was no one to assist us, and had to walk around looking for service. It seemed rushed and unorganized and we were given a picnic blanket and pillows used...from a table that had left moments after we had sat down (not COVID-19 friendly) so sadly we could not use them. We ordered some extras for our picnic basket but our waiter had forgotten to pick it up from the kitchen and it arrived cold. We were unable to express our upset as our waiter rarely came to our table except for the payment at the end. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a picnic to refrain from booking at 16:00 as there were hardly any menu items left from previous guests, regardless of the booking.More

Popped in for some vino and snoop around. Wow, what an awesome surprise. The most beautiful setting with welcoming staff and delicious food and wine. A family owned vineyard which is quite young, 18 years since their first bottle of wine but so well run...that you would think you are in the heart of Stellenbosch. We could not resist having some oysters with our delicious Noordhoek Vino. Presented beautifully with pickled finger and chilli, a perfect compliment to the tobacco and pepper to finish off the fresh delicious oysters. Our stroll to the deck was well with it as hidden at the bottom of the property are the most gorgeous spots for picnics or romantic private meals. Such a treat and Dane was the most attentive and amazing waiter.More

A very good surprise for this picnic in deep south... Very good value for the whole package. Will definitly come back again...

Great location, excellent service. Menu unfortunately very small and managers are not accommodating to different options. Food was 6/10 but portion small and too expensive for offering

Excellent service paired with great food & an exquisite Sauvignon Blanc. Nothing beats sitting outside in the lush gardens high above the sea and watch the sun go down in the Atlantic. One of the Cape‘s top sundowner locations.

We experienced a warm welcome. Staff very accommodating and knowledgeable about menu BUT sadly not efficient in ensuring patrons KEEP SOCIAL DISTANCING... We left sooner than planned as a group of people that arrived were not only shoulder to shoulder at their table, they walked...about touching our chairs, leaned over etc . encroaching on our space ( they were also extremely loud) Fine dining menu : impressed with the starters both in presentation flavour and portion size, highly recommended. Main courses : Flovours good but question portion size and could have had a small side dish - was not adequate - especially the vegeterian and Cob dishes Ambiance and position GREAT view of Noordhoek sea and beach over rolilng vineyards. It was not flawless, and not true value for money (main Course). Thank you all, will be back Jackie ValeMore

First and last visit in one! No Covid-19 virus regulations. Arrived at 1pm. Table booked for 8 people had two short beaches to squeeze into. We had to ask for no everything! To seat us at a table with distance. The menu. The coffee we...ordered long ago...which arrived with sugar already added ?? I went to swop it myself! Order taken at 3pm. It was chaos to say the least! We asked our waiter to ask the group of guys standing at the end of our table wearing no masks and shouting at each other to move...they gave us a dirty look ??...every staff member looked as though they were struggling to get it together! Management non existence ...run like a franchise...left to someone else! Not even for free or the beautiful views will we go back thanks but no thanks. The only reason I am giving a 1 rating is because you have to rate to submit....very disappointing!More

Very nice place; fantastic food and view. Highly recommended. For a picnic, booking is needed Staff is helpful and friendly

The garden was packed with unmasked revellers who marched in and out of the indoor wine sales area to use the toilets...ignoring the sign to wear masks. The staff did nothing to regulate their entry. I abandoned my purchases and fled.
