Great and relaxed location looking down onto a clean river. Food was superb, as was the service. Definitely worth another visit.

We had really superb food. A delicious starter of duck and tender calamari. My husband had fillet steak as a main course and I had Tilapia with Prawns. Both of these mains were mouth-wateringly good.

We had really superb food. A delicious starter of duck and tender calamari. My husband had fillet steak as a main course and I had Tilapia with Prawns. Both of these mains were mouth-wateringly good. For dessert, my husband had carrot cake with citrus syrup and I had a berry and chocolate croissant bake with custard. The portions were generous and we struggled to finish. The ambiance next to the river is peaceful and relaxed, and the staff made us feel welcome, with just the right level of attentiveness.

Pleasantly surprised by a lovely experience ! It is unusual to find a venue that can cater for kids and serve quality food. It is certainly somewhere we will visit more frequently having discovered it during restaurant week

The waitron assigned to us didn't know about the Restaurant Week arrangement and told us we could order from the main menu. Only because I went to ask someone did we receive the correct menu etc.

The overhead light fitting in the ladies toilets was so full of dead insects that the light did not shine down and the lighting in the bathroom was already dim.

Other than that we enjoyed a special time with our dog in a beautiful setting with delicious food. THANK YOU VERY MUCH

About Al Fiume

Cuisine: Mediterranean, Italian

​Al Fiume - Italian for 'at the river' - has all the ingredients for a great restaurant: a beautiful setting on a shady wooden deck on the banks of the Hennops River and a restaurateur with a passion for food, as well as the experience to ensure outstanding levels of service. Al Fiume serves food that lives up to our definition of quality: the season's best, cooked with skill and passion and presented with a minimum of fuss. 


The cellar at Al Fiume is stocked with a diverse choice of Italian and South African wines. The selection includes everyday drinking wines and wines for special occasions; wines from some of South Africa's best-known estates and unusual wines from smaller estates. 


Al Fiume is a restaurant for all seasons: long, lazy summer days on the wooden deck; bright spring days when the first signs of green are starting to appear on the trees overhanging the river; bracing winter days when you might want to work off your meal with a brisk walk over the bridge and cozy autumn days when you can sit snugly in the restaurant and watch the falling leaves floating down the river.
