Pane E Vino Food&wine - Venterstad

In one word.. OUTSTANDING... I could write an entire article on the quality of this hidden gem. However I'll let you discover this remarkable establishment for yourself.. Truly an authentic Italian experience outside of Italy.

It was in the morning hungry and not even wanting to have anything home cooked. Walked out to the nearby shops and knowing that it was early got to this very beautiful place and I did not think they could help me with anything. Got in welcomed by a very warm smile got in and I asked for something to quench my thirst. A very well explained number of bottles of wine put in front and I said I am hungry before anything can I have some food. Thanks to the chef and her colleagues they made me a plate of food they did not look at how I presented myself they said they were helping the hungry man. I was so proud of them all and I say let us go eat where the people want us to enjoy and will not be looking at who you are or what you have. Thanks again lady do it to all and make sure you make the best of every plate of food you give to each customer. I am proud of you all. You made my day next time my friends and family will come join also. I am proud of the way you handled me and thanks for the beautiful dish you served me

The best italian in the Western Cape. From the food to the service. Delicious.

If you are looking for a truly Italian restaurant then this is the place to go. Do yourself a favour and make a reservation because they are always full. The food is not on a menu but is written up on a Blackboard as it depends on what the local produce is what they prepare. The menu is written in Italian but the staff are very well prepared to explain to you exactly what each dish entails. I would not recommend this as a child friendly restaurant but most definitely for the more discerned patron that enjoys a very good plate of food accompnied by an excellent glass of wine. Giorgio and his son Goerge, the owners, can normally be found in the restaurant, and George's lovely wife runs a very tight ship in the kitchen. The restaurant is located right next door to Dalla Cia, where the offices and Distillery are housed and where award-winning Grappa is conjured from a very imaginative George

Family style Italian cuisine of exceptional flavour and quality. The perfect experience for friends with order envy. Five dishes of fabulous food to share. Everyone was happy. Many thanks Georgio and Elena.
