We had made a booking through restaurant week and from our arrival the service was excellent. We were eated outside on a perfect day but given the option to be seated inside if we so wished. Zane did our wine tasting of 5 wines we could choose and he was most infomative - we thoroughly enjoyed his expertees. The food was delicious and presented beaitifuly. We had a great afternoon and left with a case of their delicious wines. We will definately be back. Thank you to the staff and management for a perfect dining experience.

We had a most enjoyable lunch preceded by an entertaining and informative wine tasting - which led us to load up our car with some fine wine. Good choice of starters and mains, good food and friendly service.

"OUTSTANDING LUNCH AT GLEN CARLOU"

8.7 Cuisine 9 | Service 9 | Atmosphere 8

We had a stunning lunch at Glen Carlou, after an excellent wine tasting.
Great wines, great food, great view - what else can I say ? Also very good value for money. Highlights were the Ostrich and Lamb, as well as the starters of Calamari and Salmon Gravalax.
This is definitely one of our "Top Ten" restaurants in the Cape.

Overall the entire experience was great. One person chose to have the 3 course menu while the other 3 opted for just the 2 course mains and dessert menu. A nice surprise was the small cup of butternut soup served after the starter as well as the mouthful of brownie served after the mains and before the dessert. Also on offer as part of the meal was wine tasting before or after the meal. Great way to round off the meal. The only criticism was that the fish of the day (kingklip) was a very small portion in comparison to the pork belly. The desserts were excellent.
