Seaforth Restaurant

this restaurant just ticks all the boxes, location, menu, service, vibe and the food oh my god it was absolutely sublime. we go back often when we are in Simons Town

The Friday night seafood platter for 2 is delicious and very reasonably priced.Will definitely visit again.

I tried to make a christmas eve special family event booking, for a table outside. And they were more interested in all their rules and issues instead of trying to accommodate the client. Therefore they are so busy, so sure of having tons and tons of clients, they have forgotten, I can eat at home. I don;t need to go to their restaurant. Therefore if I take the time and trouble to make a booking at a selected table, I cannot understand how they are not willing to adjust or attend to the clients needs. Good. I don't need to go, and I will put it on all my social media and whatsapp chat groups. They obviously more interested in their needs than your needs. Hence, they don't need you as a client.It is very interesting to see this kind of behavior, so one less client at their restaurant. They seem to want to convey to you a potential client, we are so busy, we are so in demand, we cannnot accommodate you. Love it. You don't need me, my money, or my recommendation. I don't need you. Lovely. Without the tourism industry, I would love to see how you are going to attract us local patrons. I'll go to Mr Portugese in Kalkbay, he always fills the place with vibe, and remembers you and tries to keep you coming back, and allows a human being to be human.

Fantastic location right on the beach. We sat outside on the deck and had a seafood platter with salad which was fresh and tasty. Service was acceptable.

It was with such excitement that we finally discovered one of our favourite little spots in Seaforth before the lockdown was finally opening shop again, if only for a few days a week. We visited 3 times in less than a few weeks and every time the service and the professional attitude and amazing vibe was exceptional. On one of our visits it was a bitterly cold day and Craig the manager had the fire going and immediately a welcome feeling was extended as we entered. Today we once again had the pleasure of been spoilt by Craig and his team, Geraldine and Catherine. We ordered the seafood platter which for R149.00 is a give away with sides of choice and a Greek salad to share. I mentioned to our waitress Geraldine, that last time I had 3 prawns on my seafood platter and this time I noticed I only had 2, clearly also realising that last time the prawns were a little smaller in size hence possible got a little extra. Next thing Catherine arrived with additional prawns for us with a huge smile saying Craig insists on consistency! WOW!! Very few in hospitality realise that consistency is what separates the good from the ugly. In Seaforth Restaurant case, not only are they consistent but excellency in what they do, they do with love and it shows and is felt when one enters this incredible restaurant. We wish Craig and his team a wonderful season ahead and look forward to our next visit. A huge THANK YOU to Craig and his team for making all our visits memorable.

This was my second visit to Seaforth and I was disappointed on both occasions. First time I ordered fish and chips and I’m quite sure the fish was frozen. Second time I ordered a cheeseburger and my friends ordered a chicken burger with caramelized onions and fish and chips. The chicken burger arrived without the onions, the fish again looked from frozen and my cheeseburger came without the cheese. The person delivering the food said the cheese was in the patty! Not true so back it went for the cheese to be added. The patty was thick, dry with no flavour and was raw in the middle so back it went again. Both the waitress and manager were very accommodating in addressing these issues, however, a very disappointing meal to say the least. They currently have a very minimal menu so it’s hard for me to understand how the kitchen can mess up so badly. The location is great and the views are exceptional but it’s the food I’m paying for and I certainly did not get value for my money. Will not likely be dining here again.

Wow! Great spot and value for money excellent. Food is excellent and service is impeccable . If you're in Simon's Town YOU MUST VISIT this spot. We will be returning!

My husband and I made a day trip to Simon’s Town especially to go to Seaforth’s. We had dined there six years ago when we just started dating and the food made such an impact on me that I insisted we go back. I ordered the exact same dish again - beer battered hake and chips (which was fortunately one of the items available on the lockdown menu) and it was EXACTLY as delicious as I’d remembered. Their COVID-19 protocol is also spot on, thorough but not invasive. We had a fantastic seafood lunch and I cannot wait to go back. The only drawback, albeit hilarious,was a greedy seagull robbing me of my takeaway bit of fish whilst we were taking a picture, so hold on to your doggy bag!

The food was good, however we had our drinks spilled over the table and were not allowed to share a large platter of food because the restaurant does not allow “sharing of meals”. The platter was too big to eat on ones own...

One of the few places in the area that knows the value of speedy and good service. Great location aswell.
