"Charming setting Excellent Food"

The service was excellent. The springbok was sublime. The cheese souffle was very flavoursome and light. A thoroughly enjoyable lunch experience in a beautiful environment.

We had a delicious dinner at the Conservatory and just as perfect as the food were the beautiful garden setting and outstanding service.

"Ideal Summer Lunch Venue"
8.7 Cuisine 10 | Service 8 | Atmosphere 8

Given it was the first real summers day in Cape Town, our party was in a festive mood. On arrival a friendly greeting and swift guidance to our table, and once settled drinks efficiently supplied, Service was attentive and guidance provided regarding the options available. The meals were sublime and all in all a great afternoon enjoyed in the hands of professional team.

We had the cheese souffle and the springbok rump [rare] ; both exquisitely well cooked with the perfect aroma, nothing overwhelming / overbearing, which, given the dishes, could have been a recipe for disaster [pun intended].
Owing to the high temperature of the day, 35+, the window panes [it's a conservatory after all....] increased the heat in their proximity, but to have the room closed, and the a/c on, would have defeated the feeling of openness, of the room flowing into the garden.
Well looked after, reminding us that we were here to have a good time.

For the first time in the three years I’ve joined the Restaurant Week, I’ve struck gold and was in awe with my experience!

The attention to detail, excellent service and the tasty and gorgeous plated food made my dining experience at The Conservatory a very memorable one.

Views of the luscious green garden through the floor to ceiling glass panels made it felt like we dined under in a forest.

Well done to the chef for plating up a meal that I will think about for a long time. The waiters didn’t hover over us, but were always available to clear the table and ensure that we are comfortable. (using beautiful language pronounced in a manner everybody can understand.)

About The Conservatory

Cuisine: Fine Dining, Contemporary

The Conservatory

​The Conservatory, situated adjacent to the historic Cellars-Hohenort cellar, offers diners unparalleled garden vistas from both the sun-drenched terrace and the indoor tables. Carefully constructed around a giant 300-year-old oak tree, The Conservatory is one of Constantia's finest daily breakfast, lunch and dinner venues. 


Here the head chef creates hotel classics alongside modern and seasonally influenced dishes. The Conservatory menu places a great emphasis on fresh produce from both The Cellars-Hohenort gardens and local green-friendly suppliers, and this gives it the unique ability to showcase a true taste of the Constantia Valley. 


Want to book an accommodation at the Cellars-Hohenort?

The hotel’s 51 guest rooms and suites boast breathtaking views of Table Mountain and the property’s award-winning gardens.
