Wolfgat

We came for lunch, and we thoroughly impressed. Located on the beach at Patternoster, the setting was perfect. They deliver I think 7/8 courses and the wine pairing matches well. The gist of the menu is using the sea’s leftovers to create unique dishes. Everything is sourced locally. The idea is fun and cool. The food wasn’t a tasty as some restaurants, but it’s more about the idea and concept. If you don’t like seafood, definitely not for you.

Definitely one of the best restaurants I've ever visited. Outstanding food with special local products. Every course was carefully designed and incorporated the local environment. Highly recommend to go here. We drove here from Cape Town to have lunch and it was well worth the traveling.

it was interesting experience for all of us and for me it was first time when you don’t order with menu you just it what they cook according their mood that day. Here you can see how food can be an art 🖼️ atmosphere is magnificent and we spoke with chef 🧑‍🍳 differently I recommend this place as special one 🍾

Really amazing story told with local food and wine, exceptionally curated menu and an amazing understanding of local wine and food sources. Great view and atmosphere with really good knowledgable service!

Impossible to capture this hidden gem. A small restaurant, with a set multi-course menu. All local fish and vegs. I don't eat seafood, and they accommodated me beautifully. It's an experience, not a quick visit for fish 'n chips. I cannot fault anything. Their attitude and training is just superb. We chose the wine pairing, not something we'd usually do. Treat yourself, you won't be disappointed. Chef Kobus Van der Merwe, thank you 😊

While the food presentation was absolutely beautiful, each course only had two mouthfuls, with a half hour wait between each course. Only one or two dishes really stood out. We dropped a fortune and drove for hours. I will not be doing it again. Fewer courses with more mouthfuls would have been an improvement. The music was unnecessarily loud when you have waves crashing nearby. Respect to the team for what they do but this hugely technical sample menu phase is on it’s way out and I hope Wolfgat is considering changing it’s game. If you’ve got cash to burn, it’s an experience in a beautiful location but have a hearty breakfast.

As a South African this is a must experience to get a better appreciation for what this beautiful country has to offer from the local foraged food to the amazing chef Kobus with his team at Wolfgat. I will come back to see what the next season has to offer.

So, we finally made it to Wolfgat after ages of wanting to go, and let me tell you, it was worth the wait! Forget the usual glitzy, over-the-top fine dining spots; this place is all about authentic, rustic vibes. The staff? Super friendly and so knowledgeable—like, they actually take the time to walk you through each dish so you get what’s going on. But the real star here is the chef. The guy is a humble genius! You can tell he lives and breathes this stuff; he talks about each dish with so much passion that you can’t help but get excited about what you’re about to eat. As for the food itself, oh man, it was next level. We had a 7-course meal and it was mostly seafood. Didn’t see that coming, but wow, was it delicious. Can’t remember all the fancy names, but who cares when the food tastes this good, right? Yeah, it’s a bit on the expensive side for us ordinary South Africans but trust me, it’s worth every single cent. This is one of those experiences that’s going to stick with me for a long time
