Balducci Cape Town

So we have been going here for the last 6 years and it is still one of our top 5 places to eat. The cocktails are amazing. The food is always good, meat is cooked to perfection.

The booking system is also top notch.

And the cheesecake well probably the best in Cape Town and I challenge anyone on that.

Also the staff and service is great.

If you looking for a date night restaurant this is a winner for sure.

One of my favourite restaurants in Cape Town. They have really good pasta dishes and their milkshakes are fantastic too. The vibe is great and good for conversation. The prices are reasonable for what you getting. Parking is no problem however it can be a hit of a walk. They have a loyalty card which is great to collect points from them and a few other restaurants which you can redeem once you have enough, for either a discount or free meal. Definitely recommend.

Excellent restaurant. The food choices are amazing. Our waiter (Fabrice) did a fantastic job with the service and we all liked his positive attitude.
The seafood platter was amazing - highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys anything seafood. Personally I think it's a little bit overpriced. Even though it's marked "seafood platter for 2" one person could handle it - if no appetizers will be served. But it seafood is not on your thing, there are plenty other choices on the menu. Also, the cheese platter is really something to try out - my wife says so ????????

There are so many good restaurants in the Vu0026A Waterfront that it becomes overwhelming to choose one. It was my wife's birthday and I was looking for a restaurant that has great food and a stylish atmosphere. Balducci's has them both. The decor was beautiful, modern and sophisticated without the "up-tight" feel you sometimes get at similar restaurants. Their menu truly is vast with options for every taste and there is even a separate vegan menu which you don't often see. We started off with some of their cocktails and starters, and then on to pizzas and wine which was just as delicious. Our waiter was friendly and as we made a booking we got a great table next to the window. If you are craving great Italian food, this is a definite must visit.

Not the friendliest of waiters that served us. Management advise your staff that especially when wearing a mask extra effort need to be put your tone of voice when dealing with your guests. A smile carries ???? Only one of the waiters on the floor sounded happy to serve guests. Cause that's what we are... Guests in your establishment. Not just people ordering dinner. Food was good.

Balducci, since 1996????????????
If there could be a extra star for excellence, Balducci deserves it! The vibe is seriously awesome, so casual, calm and the service is professional. All this before I can mention the tasteful meals. There is a menu specially for the mindful eaters(vegans), with almost bottomless options. From starters to main courses, to dessert(I advise the blueberry cheesecake) and even wines. It's a jolly good restaurant.

Vegans rejoice! This place has a totally separate and huge vegan menu. The food was outstanding. We had amazing gin cocktails, a blooming onion starter with vegan chipotle mayo, beautiful jam jar salad with an incredible pizza. There were plenty options available and you can totally customise your own pizza too with amazing vegan cheese. Delicious! The nut cream pasta was stunning. We ordered extra and ate on the road the next day - possibly even better the next day! The service was truly special and attentive - Thank you Leesch and the team! Can't recommend highly enough.
