Skilpadvlei Wine Estate

The vibe is really good. It is relaxing with spacious table settings and seating arrangements. The service is excellent.
I ordered the venison pie. When it arrived the presentation looked good, colourful and it was substantial portions. The venison pie itself was a bit over seasoned.
The apple crumble I had for dessert was wonderful. It tasted great with just enough spices, not overly sweet and wonderfully hot. The perfect size as well.
Thank you for a great evening.

We had a wonderful time. Great menu, something for everyone. Relaxed atmosphere and a huge fun play area for kids. Perfect family day out. And....an outside bar area with table seatings, where you can relax and keep an eye on the kiddies. Amazing Red Cappuccino!! We will be back. Thanks so much.

Skilpadvlei restaurant has been a favourite for many years but we have not been impressed this morning after an exceptionally good experience at another restaurant in Stellenbosch yesterday. I had to ask the waiter to wipe the table, which has been done half heartedly with a dry cloth. Waited quite a long time to be served and had to call the waiter (one out of three actually doing something) for our orders as well as payment after the meal. The food great but the service needs serious attention. Maybe Mondays are slow but we invited guests for a birthday celebration and we were rather disappointed with the service.

A spur of the moment outing turned out to be a most wonderful dinner experience! We'll definitely be back for the comfortable setting, the delicious and well-prepared food (my son inhaled his California pizza) and the effective but unobtrusive service. We have to mention the flagship red, too, which was a perfect blend of Cab Sauv and Merlot.
Thank you, Skilpadvlei!

Nice play area and jungle gym for the kids. Food was unfortunately not on par. Ordered a burger medium rare, was served with two non toasted bottom parts of the bun? Asked to speak to a manager that offered to redo the burger. New burger arrived after all our other guests had finished their food, only to get a well done dried out inedible patty. Ribs belly cut with a lot of cartalidge. Hake was thin. Pizza was good.

Great Sunday, spent there. Service is quick even though they were very busy.
Beautiful view. Child friendly play area. Will definately visit again.

Good food and lovely place for the children to have fun and play in the kiddies area and sand pit. Also lovely wine tasting for the adults and the kiddies too. They also have an non acholic
option for those who don't want to drink.
