Bistro Sixteen82

Top choice in Cape Town


Perfectly complementing the slick and contemporary wine-tasting lounge at Steenberg Farm, this appealing bistro serves everything from oysters for breakfast to braised lamb neck for lunch. Tapas (rather than dinner) are offered from 5pm and it's also justifiably popular as a restaurant to breakfast in style. Seating is both indoor and outdoor, with beguiling views of the gardens and mountain.
