    Rustic restaurant in a great location, right at the water's edge. Nice friendly staff delivers excellent service. Anything on the menu is fresh and mouth watering.

    Amazing fish. Their platter is worth to try - by far! Wine list is ok - you can find what fits the meal (try Sauvignon!). Ousters are nice... And that's not expensive at all!

    The Brass Bell is a must visit when in Kalk Bay. The seating is built out into the sea, so it unfortunately gets flooded when there are unusually high tides. Good selection of food. Reasonably priced.

    Set on Kalk Bay beach with its own tidal pool. Seating includes a cosy indoor area as well as a wooden deck that overlooks False Bay. Tip: They serve excellent cocktails.

    Platter for 2 includes perlemoen, but not platter for 1. Haven’t tasted perlemoen? Order platter for 2 and share. Like snails, perlemoen only comes to life with garlic butter sauce - ask for this!

    Kalk bay is good for a half day trip; plenty of antique stores along the beech; Brass Bell is good for drinks.

    Great pizza. Sit next to the windows and watch the waves. Especially on a windy day - big crashing waves. Best view!

    I must say, the quality of the seafood has gone down significantly. It is sad if you can get better seafood in Gauteng than right next to the ocean.
