We managed to book through the website at the last minute. We were invited to have a drink on the terrace overlooking False Bay before our order was ready. The service was attentive and very pleasant (even if some new staff were being trained). The food was delicious with genrous portions. The Springbok Carpaccio and Asian Duck Spring rolls were starters followed by the grilled kingklip and the special Linefish cob were very well cooked. No room for desert.

First of all booking is almost essential. Over the past several years Steffanies has maintained a consistently high standard.On this visit the service was excellent and being seated in a low table number, quite near the entrance, seemed to be quieter.We went straight to the table rather than having drinks outside and this may have helped the speed of service.

We were introduced to this place a few years ago by friends and have continued to frequent on trips to SA and Somerset West Setting is beautiful elevated viewing of the town below is stunning in an evening The menu is compact with lots of specials accompanying this is a nice selection of wines Staff are professional the building is immaculate a warm welcome awaits this place is the real deal and is probably the best in Somerset West Thanks to all for another wonderful dining experience a place which we highly recommend

We love this place and always eat here when we are in the Western cape. Once again my food was excellent, although the usually stunning mussels were on the small side this time. And my wife's Fillet was medium rather than medium rare. They did offer to change but we declined.

Fantastic setting overlooking Cape Town. Went for a meal with friends and whilst the food and wine was excellent the service was poor which was a shame as it is such a lovely place.

Lunch at this place is a little gem. Great view and good food. Especially the mussels are something you must have tasted. You can have them as a starter or as a main dish. The service is professional and friendly.

Steffanie's Place has never disappointed and this occasion, on a gift voucher sent from New Zealand, was no exception. Starters – ostrich carpaccio; and fresh mussels. Both superb, and generous. The saffron and lemon sauce with a hint of chilli and garlic with the mussels deserves special mention.Mains – grilled cob; and well matured sirloin. Once again, both excellent. It is not an exaggeration to say that the sirloin was the best I've ever had, and was well-complimented by the mushroom and brandy sauce.Afters – Dom Pedro; and panna cotta with Amarula. The panna cotta was all oohs and aahs.A special word on the service and the waiters. The service was quick, and by the end of the evening we had been served by four waiters, all friendly, helpful and quick to attend, whether it was a request for a glass of water or an aircon adjustment. They made an enjoyable difference, and the tip was commensurate.Well done Steffanie's Place – your 'recipe' is spot on!

My husband and I were fortunate enough to get a table at Steffanies at short notice (they’ve been around for about 20 years and bookings are generally essential). We had the most amazing young lady serve us by the name of Danielle - what a lovely lady. She was exceptionally knowledgeable of the local wines and knew the menu back to front. We started with the oysters and followed it by one of the most delicious Caesar salads and their famous mussels with the best sauce I’ve ever tasted. We shared a yummy chocolate dessert that Danielle recommended and we were not disappointed. The only problem with Steffanies is that it’s not situated in the town that we live in - otherwise we’d be regular diners. A must place to eat if you’re in Somerset West....oh, and I almost forgot to mention the incredible views. :-)

First time I’ve been terribly dissatisfied with price, portions and service at Steffanies. Our waitress was not on top of her game and after serving our starters and drinks things slowly went from bad to worse. Got there at 7 but only served our mains at 9....... kitchen got the blame eventually! Not once did she pop over to keep us updated . Will not be going back again. And this place is a walk away from my home. In the past Steffanies was our go to place..... I miss how things were with the previous gentleman running it!

Our second visit to this simply brilliant restaurant. It is very special and the staff play a great part in their success. The daily specials are very well thought out with great choices. I hope that the owners don't object to being described as quirky but it is meant with the utmost admiration. A smile just seemed to be on my lips from the moment we walked in. Great food and great location with wonderful views.
