Food was good and view was good but the service wasnt as great as we expected.Our milkshakes were given to us without any serviettes. The waitress who was assisting us was all over the place and took her more than 10 min to bring us some serviettes to wipe the table as the milkshake she brought was over flowing.There were other waitresses and waiters standing around which should have been assisting clients.It was an experience that left us disappointed. Key focus for this restaurant would definitely be customers service.
Berthas is lovely. Right on the Simonstown Harbour, its setting is charming and the food was good. I had absolutely delicious seared tuna. Our party (we were 5) had good food. The main meals were fine; some of the desserts were okay. The setting, the wine list and the willing, friendly service compensate.
Food is good, views are amazing. Customer service needs some serious improvement. Our waiter didn’t even greet us or introduce himself and then we battled to get service through out our whole time there, changed waiters 3 times and non of them said thanks before leaving us with a new waiter. Would have given a 5 star but the below average service brought the rating down.
The Prawns and Calamari are among the best Ive had!Very professional and friendly service. From the welcome at the door to the goodbye as we left, we felt welcomed.We enjoyed the food, the views and the live music and the waterfront. (Support them as you pass by if they are there on your visit.)Highly recommend Berthas Restaurant!Best,Nitanja
Service was fantastic BUT our food was fried in old oil. The oil left brown marks on our plates. So unfortunate! Beautiful view!
Excellent chips. Meals are good value for money. 10/10 for bathroom standards. Good service. Wasnt disappointed at all. Unfortunately also not blown away by anything either, but its a good restaurant. Would go back. Thanks
Yummy food. Great cocktails. The team is fabulous 👌
First time for myself and hubby and friends. Portions of our dishes were good, tasty , fresh absolutely 💯 enjoyed my combo .Tge Calamari was soft and Tender and the Fish was very Fresh ..Definitely going back again and highly recommended. The location is perfect 👌 with beautiful view of the sea. .Weather today was perfect too. Very Very customers we were and will be seeing you again.
Very good service food was soooo good specially loved there prawns and gorgeous service from the staff had a drink in the load shedding but service was so good thanx Bertha s Ill definitely be back very soon pleased customer Alverine Erasmus
I was so looking forward to the seafood platter. I guess my expectations was a bit too high. The food wasn’t WOW, the view beautiful. I visited a few times before and was very happy. The staff is always friendly👍🏻
Great place to have seafood while watching the Simons Town Harbour.
The catch of the day was a very decent portion and prepares with a very tasty and simple marinade. The melva pudding was delicious! Service was excellent and you can dine enjoying a very nice view of the port.
Lovely on the water location. had the prawns. NO, edible, but definitely not the best in town. tables and menus need some attention. a little cleaning is needed.
Lovely restaurant in great setting, food was amazing enjoyed it worth every cent, only problem was waitor went missing when i wanted to order more chips, otherwise would highly recommend
The food was great, but the service was a little slow. The view was nice and the wildlife a pleasure to behold. 🤗💝
Amazing view. If you were on the road all day you just feel like sitting down and have a bite to eat no matter where, but this place really refreshed my spirit and serve a great meal with great refreshments. Best service I had around this area. Had spectacular live entertainment from some local choir - just loved the whole set-up. Friendly staff - clean and neat - a bit pricey but well worth it.
Best seafood I have eaten in a long time and very reasonably priced not to mention the view!
Awesome sea food. Perfect view of Simmons town harbour.
Beautifull place with an amazing view of Simonstown yacht Harbour as well as SA navy. A must visit
Very good service. Food was amazing. Lovely to sit near the waters edge.
Location, view, good food and efficient service. Love it.
When Simons Town is buzzing, Berthas is a wonderful place to eat out. Beautiful vibe. Tasty food. Stunning views. So wonderful to see restaurants full again after the Great Plague. Cape Town is humming this long weekend and over school holidays. Warms my heart
Perfect venue for a lazy afternoon. Great seafood, professional, prompt and friendly service and very affordable too. Fabulous view of the harbour. Wheel chair friendly
Very large seafood restaurant with about 500 seats. Large selection of mainly seafood available, but meat dishes are slso available. Wine selection is also adequate. Lovely view overlooking the harbour is very tranquil. Food was prepared and served well, but portions are small. Need to add s starter or a sweet.
Good service. Lovely setting. Order the seafood for the best on the menu
Beautiful view, friendly staff, good food at a good price. 👍
Enjoyed a filling breakfast on a Sunday morning drive on our trip around the Peninsula. A bit pricey. However nice and relaxing atmosphere 😌 😎 👌
Grand food great puddings! And gin just became more fabulous!
Beautiful setting..... excellent service.... good food ..... had hake and calamari....😋😋
Food is tasty and well prepared. Service was disappointing.
We had a scrumptious meal , the service was excellent and the view magnificent , reasonably priced too...
1st time eating at Berthas ..worst service ever..sunday 8 Aug ..lunch time..placed order..waited 50mins for food..after waiting for 50mins and extremely hungry the waiter Brenna arrived with wrong order..no hot beverage menu..coffee arrived cold..manager offered to not charge us for wrong order ..however ..first and definitely last visit..service dont even deserve a one star rating.
Best place for food poisoning. Waiter was really amazing and friendly, but the food was horrific. Not recommended.
Sharp friendly service with great views of Simons Town - False Bay yacht basin and naval base.. Great spot to meet friends over a refreshing drink and scrumptious meal, viewing passing boats and inquisitive seagulls.. like it aLot
Beautiful location but average food. Expected it to be like pub grub and it was. So. Cant really complain. And the food is decent. Just dont expect fine dining and enjoy the view and the drinks and you will not be disappointed
Platter for 1 with catch of the day? Angel fish was days old. Order incorrect. Waiter apologized and offered R10.00 discount. Pathetic. Ended up getting an allergic reaction.
Amazing fish n chips.(their special batter is uniquely delicious). Calamari is melt in your mouth soft. Stunning view. Friendly staff...
The food was awesome the service was great and the view was fabulous just go if you want to have a great time
The oysters were good but there was an issue with billing that I queried and the manageress (Mercia) was the most unhelpful and rude manager I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. She refused to make it better and clearly the R12 was more important to her than customer service or satisfaction. The R12 was not the issue so much as her appalling attitude. She turned her back on me, muttering under her breath while I was STILL speaking to her, and walked away. Uncompromising, obstinate and rude. Totally ruined the entire experience and I will never go back. (Clint the waiter was great.)
Had sirloin, was nice with a nice salad. Salad was a bit bland but adding some feat and avo sorted it out. View is nice. Only issue is that they dont have an all day breakfast, even though you can add bacon and egg to any meal.
Meal and service really poor. Manager on duty needs to be nore attentive. Fish totally tasteless... And really an overfried fishcake. Not to mention the starters drenched in oil. So much for claiming they have famous fish. And they could put more effort into the flavours of the food, tartar sauce couldnt even save the fish. If it was not for the view I would have given it 1 star. Will definitely not be returning and wont recommend to anyone!
Lovely vibe, friendly staff. Best calamari ever. I like waiters checking on my table and not just serving and disappearing, but did manage to flag our waiter down for a beer order.
Stunning view, good food and very friendly staff
Lovely, well prepared seafood lunch, tranquil harbour setting & street artists music in the air..... What a time we had.....
Reasonable food, fair prices and a nice situation. It was cool when we were there and chose to eat inside, but the ambience was not as nice inside
I ordered 2 beers and it cost me R120. They were standard local beers made in cape Town. I want impressed.That being said. The staff seemed incredibly friendly and were very willing to help out. They were also being jovial with one another and made the atmosphere seem very pleasant.
Great view but seafood and service below par
Really average food bordering on bad. Great setting but won’t be back - I find it sad how because you have a nice setting you think the food and service can be average
Great location and historically acceptable food. HOWEVER, to wait 15min to be served on a quite day is unacceptable. To be served fried calamari without removing the skin, is just plain lazy. To have rubbery grilled baby calamari is unacceptable. To serve a watery garlic sauce is unacceptable. To call your waiter when you need drinks is unacceptable. To then be given the wrong bill completed the comedy of errors. You need to up your game outside tourist season!
Always good. A lovely ambience right by the sea and the food iscalways good.
Very Nice and the Viber good
Great food, great views & good service
Waterfront views. Outside seating with covid protocols in place. Specials which are pub grub fare. Good for families.
