Good choices for both Starters and Mains. The food was both well presented and tasty. Wine list both by the carafe and bottle give one the opportunity to sample their selection. The Macaroon desert was disappointing; definitely for sharing, because who can eat 5 macaroons? Also too sugary. This won't deter us from visiting again.
We had lunch during Restaurant Week and we’ll definitely come back. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and the food is even better.

Chef Brad offered a very generous menu, with the mussels and the lamb burger being amongst the best dishes I’ve ever had. I just can’t think of a better place to have lunch in the Cape Town area and I’d recommend it to anyone! If you’re a bit on a tight budget: no worries, there’s an amazing rosé on the wine list for something like only R95 per bottle.

My husband had the caesar salad to start and the linefish; I had the fillet (almost too large a portion for me and done to perfect...
Read full reviewLoved our 'Restaurant Week' lunch at Bistro 1682! Wonderful setting, brilliant service and delicious meal. We had the two-course option and don't know where we would have a three course. My husband had the caesar salad to start and the linefish; I had the fillet (almost too large a portion for me and done to perfection) and the chocolate fondant-raspberry pud (divine - LOVED the Turkish delight square!!), and our son had the burger and the macaroons. What a lovely, happy treat! I found I could even stomach the WP loss to the Sharks later that day.
We had a wine tasting at Bistro 1682 with friends, with some very promising wines. What a beautiful interor AND exterior. I definately will come back for lunch or dinner some time.

About Bistro Sixteen82
Steenberg has raised the bar with an innovative new Bistro-style cellar door restaurant and wine tasting venue unlike any other in the Constantia Valley. Named Bistro 1682 after the year in which Steenberg was first established, the interactive wine and food destination has seen an overwhelming amount of local and foreign guests, since its opening in November 2009. With an ambience that embodies opulent chic, Bistro 1682 seamlessly complements Steenberg's popular fine dining restaurant, Catharina's.
Set amidst the vineyards at the foothills of the Steenberg Mountain (Stone Mountain), with spectacular views across the vineyards, Constantia Valley, and with False Bay in the distance, the inviting and visually interactive modern space with eclectic design features an open flow plan. High ceilings and earthy natural textures and colours attribute to a somewhat industrial feel without detracting from the warm, welcoming ambience. A terraced dining area leads to reflective water features and enchanting 'sensory' gardens. Surrounding indigenous gardens are brilliantly offset by a floating glass bridge and an intricate labyrinth to complete a multi-sensory wine destination experience that entice visitors to stay, relax and enjoy the wine and cuisine of the Constantia Valley.
Intrepid chef and bistro dining specialist Brad Ball, of the River Café and Olympia Café fame, lends his gastronomic savvy to the 70-seater Bistro1682.A unique Raw Bar, featuring counter seating and interesting, healthy and delicious raw cuisine such as sashimi, gravadlax, ceviche, carpaccios, oysters and tartars, where dishes will be freshly prepared on order by designated Chefs. Hard-pressed to contain his excitement at heading up the kitchen at the new restaurant, Brad has made his mark by introducing his own, original interpretation of modern Bistro food by raising the standard of casual dining restaurants and offering excellent value for money.
