O Pescador Restaurant Knysna

This was my first time at O Pescador.
The place was pretty much empty at 3:30 pm.

The restaurant is large, with indoor and outdoor seating areas.

I ordered sardines as a starter and they were absolutely perfect and delicious.

For the main, I ordered the grilled Kinglip, which was Aldo delicious.

The service was good and I will definitely return.

It was such a good experience.

Their seafood is excellent, we enjoyed every bite!
The mussels were so amazing. Their spicy sauce was delicious as well, so we purchased a small jar of it.

I like how they make the effort to make the food halal-friendly.

Also, staff are very nice and acknowledgeable, and they make good recommendations.

Thank you!

Visited on a quiet, cold day. Unfortunately couldn't stay long due to unforeseen circumstances, this review isn't a complete one. The fish was succulent and the chips rustic and fresh. We were warmly greeted by a lady who I assume owns the restaurant as she sat at the table next to us with friends but also was working with the other staff. Our waiter was terrific as well.

Will hopefully be back to give a more comprehensive review.

Absolutely loved loved loved our evening. There are many more popular restaurants in the area, but if you want quality over quantity then do yourself a favour and dine here. They have a simpler menu, but the quality of food is amazing. We had livers and sardines as starter. The kingklip and oxtail is very highly recommended as mains. The staff is very attentive and anticipated our needs without having to ask. We loved every minute and every morsel.

I arrived late and they were happy to serve me which was nice. The waiter was really attentive and authentic. Nice selection on the menu and the sardines for starter and grilled king clip were very tasty. Great value for money.

I ordered fish, calamari and prawns and they were just ok. The prawns were on the hard side with the shells not coming off easily. The fish was good quality and tasted fine. My husband had an oxtail which just had too much gravy and veggies. I asked for hot water and they charged R25 with a R10 discount. Overall, the food is just fine and there’s nothing to write home about. The service is remarkable though.

We had a superb dinner. The Mussels and Trinchado were sublime. My family and I love typical Portuguese food and O Pescador did not disappoint us. It’s a beautifully run family restaurant. Claudette made us feel at home and she accommodated all our needs. If you are looking for a sublime food experience please visit O Pescador in Knysna.
