Coupled with the incredible views of the restaurant and the walk around the vineyard, I would say that this is a once in a lifetime experience.” said Natasha Kipepeo.

“Absolutely incredible meal, from start to finish. The service was impeccable and every course immaculate. It isn’t a short sitting as we were there for 4 hours, but if you are looking to enjoy the theatre of the meal and want to engross yourself in it, it’s the perfect place. Also as a note the server was great fun and made the evening for us.” gushed another diner.
