A beautiful day in Cape Town calls for a beautiful lunch experience. Where else to do this but the continuously amazing La Mouette. Again the La Mouette team delivered an unforgettable experience. We had the Autumn tasting menu which was truly phenomenal. The service impeccable. The friendliness of the staff like no other. I cannot continue to reiterate if you... More

My husband and I went there about 4 months ago to try their summer tasting menu. 7 courses for R385 (about $40). The meal was amazing 0 very inventive, beautiful to look at and... More

We tried the tasting platters with wine, and the food - taste and presentation - was the best I've had in years! The different wines complemented the different dishes beautifully. I would've loved to eat there every day, it was so good. The price was very, very reasonable, our waiter was great, we found parking without too much hassle and... More

Lovely setting and delicious food for good value. Probably the best tasting menu I have ever had. Wish I lived in Cape Town so could go more often!

Awesome restaurant found purely by chance. On the main street in Sea Point. The chef is originally from the UK and trained in France. The garden setting was just lovely (we were there at night) with the central fountain lit up and cushions scattered making a cosy place for sunset drinks. Inside we were seated in the dinning room and... More

This restaurant is situated in SeaPoint. It looks like just a house with the tables set outside. The inside (where we sat) has two rooms and is set out like someones' living room with various tables situated within. The menu ,although not very large, was varied and very interesting. They also offer a 6 course tasting menu which I understand... More

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience at La Mouette. The food was absolutely fantastic, the service was great, and the atmosphere was incredible. Of all the restaurants I visited in Cape Town, this was by far my favorite. If you're from out of town, definitely spend an evening here and get away from the tourist-y scene. This... More

When our party of six visited the restaurant we enjoyed a warm welcome, an excellent 5 course meal and good service. The various courses were well presented and quite generous. Definitely a place to return to as their menu chanes with the seasons.
