Really enjoyed the creativity of our dishes. Exciting and delicious at the same time.
The food was outstanding (foodie Heaven), unfortunately no power in the region the day of our Dinner, but that did not influence the quality of the food. It did however feel like the restuarant was understaffed
We had a lovely evening at NCW during Restaurant week! We enjoyed a 5-Course Spring Degustation menu with Wine pairing. The food was delicious and the service was great! Everyone is super friendly. Love the decor and set up of this restaurant. Thanks!
Wonderful experience!
Loved the attention to detail and the unique flavors.
Fantastic friendly staff

Delicious food, each element of each course went so well together. My husband also did the wine pairing which he loved. Service was excellent! My only regret was that we were too tired (after a hectic week) to have some coffee next to the fire.

About NCW Restaurant
Cuisine: Fine Dining
NCW Restaurant
Chef Ence Willemse, who has previously worked at award-winning restaurants Roots in Krugersdorp and Overture in Stellenbosch, has opened a new restaurant in Melville called NCW. In addition to the boutique eatery with a seasonal menu, NCW will offer a space for cocktail parties, exhibitions and pop-ups.
The style of food might be labelled fine dining, but Ence calls it ‘food with a story’. Part of that story is a focus on the provenance of the ingredients he uses, from the farm to his kitchen. This philosophy extends to the wine offering, each bottle of which has a great story to tell.
The Edwardian building that houses the restaurant overlooking Main Road in Melville has been lovingly restored. The chef lives in another restored residence on the property. This venue has been hard-won: Ence even put in a blue-collar stint to raise the capital he needed to bring NCW to life.
