It was all in the attentive service,detailed presentation,finest quality, and tantalising flavors! If you after a dining experience on the West Coast, this one is must not be missed!

Gaaitjie is an absolutely charming restaurant, quite unlike anywhere else we have ever eaten. It's a beautiful old fisherman's cottage and the restaurant spreads across several rooms and the terrace. Everything we ate was fantastic. We would make a special trip to eat here on our next visit to South Africa. Outstanding experience in every way.

We had a very relaxed lunch with a table of friends on the balcony overlooking the sea. Everyone was happy with their choices - and there were some very fussy diners with us. Most of the table ate fish dishes - well prepared and presented and a nice range of wines to go with them. Lovely hand-cut chips! Service was... More
