Cattle Baron Grill & Bistro - Harbour Bay

This year my family decided to eat out instead of cook Christmas lunch and we decided to come to Cattle Baron in Simon's Town. A choice we certainly didn't regret. We had our table reserved and we were greeted by Jonathan our kind and polite waiter.For starters we had a choice between the salmon and the deep fried calamari, I chose the calamari and really enjoyed fresh and warm calamari that was served. For mains I was really impressed at the portion sizes and at the flavorful meats in my plate, if I remember correctly it was a chicken thigh, leg of lamb and gammon with rice and roast potatoes. Food was a good temperature, cooked to perfection. For dessert I decided to have the trifle which is risky because everyone makes it differently but I was not disappointed when it arrived, from what I tasted it was Swiss roll at the bottom, strawberry jelly, fresh strawberries and cream on top. There may have been other ingredients too but these are what stood out for me in particular as the flavors were very good. Overall I had an amazing time at cattle Baron and it's safe to say that this is the start of a Christmas tradition which we will be very excited about.

This is the best steakhouse in this part of the Cape. They do steak perfectly. So if you want a steak this is the place to come. The clue is in the title. Service is always prompt and friendly. Slight whinge is about some of the other reviews.

We stopped at this shopping centre and saw their lunch time specials. A friendly Warren served us at a window table. The winelist offered a fair choice. The highlight of the day however was the food. Steak grilled to perfection and a very nice creamy madagascan pepper sauce. The only reason why this restaurant didn’t score 5 stars is because they tried to overcharge us. After a long wait for the bill I saw they overcharged us for an item advertised at a special price. Warren told us “he was about to point out the mistake to us.” Yes, sure.They took ages to bring the updated bill when we spotted another overcharge. Warren now blamed everyone else. Sadly, once you try and take me for a ride, I don’t return in a hurry. Never mind how good your food is.

Despite a cold evening, the experience at the restaurant was warm and friendly. My steak was perfect, service good and overall I was suitably impressed. Looking forward to getting back there sooner than later.

On the 25/2/2020 I went to the Cattle Baron at Harbour Bay Simonstown for lunch I ordered there special R99.00 steak but was not happy I wanted a medium rare steak but got a very rare one instead with veg that also looked rather non appetizing I have been there numerous times and the food is great but definitely not on this day....

The service was teffible. The waiters took forever to bring our doggy bags, they also didn't bring dessert menus. We had to ask for menus. They didn't ask if our food was fine. Please upgrade this it was very disappointing.

I love the burgers and the staff are friendly and helpful, the food is amazing and the views are stunning

What a great R99 menu. We've had the Hake and Calamari and the steak several times and think it's incredible value. The staff are great and very friendly and there is no corkage but the drinks are very reasonable anyhow.The views are to die for as I said why cook at home.

Came for a light Sunday arv bite. Pleasantly surprised by the good food, wine and very friendly service.Great view over the sea towards Simon's town harbour.Enjoyed the burgers.. Vincent gave us good friendly attention.Thank you!

Great sea views and an extensive menu at this popular restaurant make it an excellent venue. The food is well presented and most enjoyable. We'll be back.
