Had a lovely lunch. Awesome atmosphere and very friendly staff. You can sit outside or inside air-con section. The cafe is under new management since the start of Feb 2018 and the new owners are very hands on, checking up with customers on regular basis and even helping staff when it gets busy. Would definitely recommend the steak!!

We love this little restaurant but today we were so disappointed.We were the only couple in the place, ordered our food off the new menu which is interesting..... Not a good interesting....... More like why change something that was not broken? Our food took absolutely ages to arrive. Another couple had arrived just after us and they had finished their food before ours was even served. When we inquired as to what the delay was we were informed the omelette my husband ordered takes long to make... a bacon and mushroom omelette.... Really? When our food finally arrived it was served without toast.... Again asked where toast was and was told still making it.... Eventually arrived not toasted and stale bread.. Poor as this is a bakery. Asked for the stale bread to be toasted and again waited until we had finished our breakfast before it arrived..and had to ask for butter.... Toast should automatically be served with butter, why do you have to ask and appear to be difficult .... Rock hard like melba toast and not nice freshly toasted bread.The manager did give my Husband a complimentary coffee....didn't really make us feel better. But unfortunately we were seriously disappointed in a place that had always been amazing.Time to get your act together, we will not be in a hurry to return. May need to relook the 'new menu',as it isn't great.

La Parrilla

Through classic (and sometime not so classic) Latin American cuisine, La Parrilla is the restaurant where memories are made over a plate of good yummy food. Similar to South Africa is Latin America a highly diverse area of land that holds various cuisines

Riebeek Kasteel on a chilly Sunday night is hardly a bustling metropolis. So we were pleasantly surprised to happen upon this warm and welcoming restaurant. Excellent T-bone steak and sides, tasty well prepared linefish combined with the blazing fire and good local red wine to make this a memorable visit !Hi, Thank you for giving us a opportunity to be your hosts, we are glad that we could heat up your Sunday evening and surprise you with delicious food, we hope to see you again soon!ReagardsLa Parrilla Team
