Valentine's Day at Constantia Uitsig

Spend Valentine's Day at one the Cape Winelands most beautiful Estates


Chef Clayton Bell builds on the indelible legacy of chef extraordinaire, Frank Swainston. The menu’s focus remains the robust flavours of Italy with forays into exotic Asia. Clayton believes that consistency is a key factor in the restaurant’s ongoing popularity.

“Don’t over-complicate food, and don’t mess with good quality ingredients. I’ve been here for 13 years and Uitsig is my second family.”


This attitude underscores the elegant yet relaxed, convivial atmosphere that keeps so many people returning for another meal in the original Manor House on the estate. It’s also why first-time visitors feel immediately that they’ve come home.

Since its inception in 1992, Constantia Uitsig Restaurant has consistently featured amongst the top restaurants in South Africa.
