Welcome to

Stellenbosch Kitchen/Kombuis
Restaurant

Western Cape, South Africa

Restaurant to the boutique-style Stellenbosch Hotel, the Stellenbosch Kitchen/Kombuis Restaurant hosts a truly authentic Stellenbosch dining experience in the heart of the Cape Winelands. The restaurant is housed in a Cape Dutch style building, built between 1692 and 1701 and was recently declared a National Monument.

Located on the corner of historic Dorp Street and popular-hip Andringa Street, guests can relax on our terrace or dine in-house and enjoy an atmosphere of old-world charm whilst sharing in the ambience of social chatter.

Our chefs prepare traditional South African heritage food with a modern twist. Indulge in delectable dishes such as the Slow Roasted Lamb Shank from Riebeeck Kasteel, Premium beef fillet, Pan seared Kingklip or feast on the favourites and enjoy the flavour of the Tempura battered fish & hand-cut chips, the Monster Burger still made in the traditional way or the Risotto with fresh exotic mushrooms.

We follow a “pasture-to-plate” approach that focuses on sustainable use of the region’s finest seasonal ingredients. A tasteful recipe when paired with local wines.

We kept coming back to this great little restaurant because of the wonderful food, creative menu and great service. The kudu carpaccio is to ‘die for’. I also highly recommend the pork belly and risotto. All the dishes and drinks are very well priced.

We had breakfast there twice. There was a lot of choice, from warm dishes to fresh fruit, croissants, juices and coffee. Furthermore, there was a good atmosphere and the service was top. Thank you Tuli and the rest!

What a superb experience and meal at this wonderful establishment. The calamari and chorizo starter which my 2 sons had, the mains of braised pork, beef fillet, prawn risotto and my mouth watering pan seared kingklip, were all so tasty, fresh and beautifully plated. Our Simonsig Kaapse Vonkek complemented our meal perfectly. Sheldon , our waiters was brilliant, attended to our every need and was at our beck and call constantly. All in all, delightful evening, and we will definitely be back and recommend this fine eatery to all.

Great experience from the start, welcomed by Sidu – I followed his recommendations for food and drink, with lam racks and wine, which were an amazing experience. The place has wonderful ambiance, and Sidu and the rest of the personnel were professional and pleasant.

We had dinner at the kitchen and really enjoyed our meal. The service and food were excellent. I particularly preferred the gnocchi and butterscotch cheesecake. A very nice way to end the day.

How this place has turned around in a year! So glad we tried it again. The service was fantastic and the food was beautiful; stunning selection, great quality and perfectly prepared. My husband had the seafood platter, which was fresh and generous.

We stayed at the hotel behind the restaurant and chose to dine there on the last minute. What an amazing surprise! We were welcomed by the staff with an excellent service. The ambiance of the restaurant was very nice. The food was amazing (the looks and the taste!) We asked our waitress to help us pick the wine for the dishes we chose and it was excellent wine a perfect match with the food.

If you like value for money, tasty and well-presented food and personal service, this is the place to have breakfast. Best poached eggs we’ve tasted anywhere in Cape Town. (And we all know they can be a disaster if not timed perfectly.) Walk-ins welcome. Definitely recommended.

I stayed at the Stellenbosch Hotel and ate here twice for dinner during my stay and every morning for the breakfast. Both dinners, the food and wine were excellent and the service was friendly and just attentive enough.

Serendipity….the dictionary description is an unplanned, fortunate discovery. And that is the perfect way, to sum up our experience. My partner and I originally lucked upon this nirvana while looking for a place to have a refreshing beverage. One drink became three while being thoroughly entertained by the “Doctor” behind the bar.
