We take the BlueGrass for our first dinner, based on the recommendation of a friend. It couldn’t start better. Thx to Wex, his service was nice. The food and the wine as well. And you can enjoy the sundown.

Even though it's almost certain that most locals can't afford to eat at BlueGrass, the value for money is really good from a European perspective. The food is delicious, the service is attentive, and the view is priceless. What more could you want?

Wow, I came for seafood but I saw some Afrikaner’s all ordering the marrow and it looked legit so I added one too and boy, something about the beef in this country, the most intensely flavorful marrow. The king clip is the cleanest whitefish I’ve had so far, maybe it’s the freshness and the cold water here. Nice selection of South African brandies too
