Read full reviewWhen we first arrived, they did not have our booking on their records. Apparently they have not received any bookings from Restaurantweek....... I was extremely disappointed as I made the reservation immediately when the VIP bookings opened and it was for my birthday lunch. They eventually helped us at a bar table upstairs in the Harbourhouse restaurant where we were able to get the Live Bait menu. The food was great and the manager looked after us very well. What was almost a huge disaster, was saved by the restaurant's fantastic staff.

About Live Bait at Kalk Bay
Cuisine: Seafood
On sunny days, the floor to ceiling windows are opened to allow the heady scent of the sea to whet your appetite. Popular with young couples, families and foreign dignitaries alike, the casual banquette seating and colourful harbour atmosphere make Live Bait the perfect place to enjoy a lazy lunch by the sea.
The food is a range of well presented crowd pleasers with a stylish, vibrant twist, like Smoked Paprika Calamari, Hake and Chips with Basil Mayonnaise and, of course, the freshest possible line fish, straight from the fishing boats moored just meters away.
