You are greeted by a very friendly security guard at the gate where your driver's and license disk are scanned before you drive through the boom to get to the parking lot The lawns were well kept and the pretty ducks had gorgeous yellow and black ducklings. You can very easily spend lots of time watching the ducklings Paddle round the pool and forage for food along the bank while the parents come right up to you to examine your hands to make sure you don't have food for them. The waiter was friendly and professional. He did however completely forget about the wine that was ordered until we enquired halfway through supper The veil pasta tastes fresh but is rather bland. I definitely recommend adding lots of salt, pepper, garlic, chili, olive oil and parmesan cheese to it and giving it a good stir to give it some good flavour. The Mike's special seafood pasta tastes like seafood and you can taste the prawns. The pizzas have an excellent base that is thin and crispy. It would be nice if they had a bit more sauce on them, once again I recommend adding the chilling and garlic to them to add flavor. The tables are well spaced from each other outside and we were given a candle to chase away the mosquitoes. Very nice place to sit and watch the sunset and have something to drink while enjoying good company Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: R 200–250 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4

Popped down the road for some lunch with the family yesterday and really enjoyed our visit to this restaurant. Best to make a reservation if you are really hungry and wanting to sit inside. A lovely selection of well balanced meals with each dish showcasing a masterclass in taste. I had the peperoni pizza and the family chose, mussels and two of their pasta dishes. The fried ice cream was a real treat. It was freezing cold on the day, but warm and cozy inside and the service was fantastic! If you are looking for a special family outing or taking out some important clients you won't go wrong at this stunning restaurant. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I recently visited Cucina di Giovanni at Eikendal Wine Estate on a warm autumn day. This was perfect as they have a great outdoor seating area with enough shade provided by umbrellas and beautiful big trees. They also have a nice big shaded kids play area that is within sight of the tables, which kept the little ones entertained while the adults relax. The service was friendly and attentive, however the food was a bit on the average side. My Carpaccio Vittore starter and the pizza I had for a main course were a bit underwhelming. My wife, on the other hand, said the Risotto Balls she had as a starter was delicious. Overall, we had a good day at Cucina di Giovanni. I am hoping they just had a bit of an off day regarding the food, as the rest was great. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: R 200–250 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
