Fodor's Expert Review 96 Winery Road

This relaxed venue is always buzzing with folk from the wine industry, locals from the area, and up-country visitors. The menu changes regularly but tempts with favorites such as Karoo lamb, the "Hollandse" pepper fillet, and the decadent crème brûlée. Dishes are served tapas style, meaning you can taste a little of everything. As you'd expect for a restaurant in this area, the selection of wine is also impressive. Inside, burgundy walls are cozy for winter, and outside terrace seating offers soothing mountain views during summer. With more than 25 years under its belt, the restaurant has become a Cape Winelands institution.
