Enjoyed a lovely Sunday lunch which was most enjoyable. Meat was tender and juicy and the crackling crisp and crunchy. Fresh tasty vegetables which werent boiled to death. Will be back.Thank you
Best food, excellent value for money.
If you havent been here you are losing out, the setup is rustic and the vibe is great, the service was very good and the food was outstanding they will be seeing me alot, however make sure that you book ahead.
Good food, but limited menu.
Very nice atmosphere and good food
Always a great experience! The cob is definitely the best in the world 😉! Ambience as well as the service is also excellent!
To me was not a Italian experience at all. Simple menu, not really Italian, pizza was very average, pasta over cooked. Will not go back again.
Great food and service as usual
Excellent !Best East coast sole & delicious sirloin steak.Waitresses are fun & friendly..all together a lovely evening in a chilled & friendly atmosphere with great food! Well done Moltenos!!
Love Moltenos, very friendly and good food 🍲 🍜😍
A definite local in the area. We arrived for an early thursday supper due to Covid curfew. The restaurant was busy and the service was quick and efficient. Food options are rich, home-cooked style and, from what I understand, the menu has not changed in years. Large portion sizes. The locals love it and go their for their favorite dishes.
Food excellent and lovely experience
What a place to be, the three ladies working like Trojans, the chef holding the oven, spaghetti is what I had, only the best.... Thank you
Gordon and co....the ABSOLUTE BEST...try the Seafood platter. Youll eat your fingers off
Good food. Good service. Atmosphere inside the restaurant is excellent but you feel left out of the ambiance when seated in the outside area.
Super food and superlative serviceTOP OF THE POPS & MOMS!!
Always excellent service, good food, friendly people
Excellent pork belly
Friendly, good service, good food !
It was so nice.
What a fantastic place. Best lamb shank I ever had. A must try definitely.
Great food and friendly hosts. Home from home
Average pizza, good steak,unfriendly host who also took our take-away order.
Really enjoyed. Good service and delicious food. Will def go again
Great food and service. Overpriced extras and wine.
Great tasty food and friendly service.
Was invited to a friends 60th birthday bash at Moltenos. Absolutely loved this place. Gordon, the owner, prepares all the dishes himself and believe me, the food was excellent. Staff is friendly and the restaurant was packed yet the food came on time and beautifully prepared. Will definitely make Moltenos one of my favourite go to restaurants.
Just a bit better than ok.Very family dinning but very good value for money
Real personal touch and great food.
Amazing food
Always phenomenal food! Most recent visit had the lamb shank, and my wife had the pork belly - both phenomenal.The only place to eat in Onrus!
Husband and wife business with lovely attitude, service and food.
Every single time I eat here I enjoy the meal and vibe. The food is always of great quality and I have never been disappointed. If you are in Onrus I recommend visiting.
I had the tomato based seafood pasta (served with spaghetti?) which was a very generous helping, but lacked the deep tomato taste that I enjoy with pastas. My companion had fish and chips (i think it was kabeljou, as hake was not available). It was well crusted and brown, whilst the inside was still moist and cooked just right.Not fine dining, but definately worth a second visit
The food is fantastic! Cannot wait to go back for the absolute brilliant Hake and veg dish I had for dinner. This place deserves a nomination for one of the best little restaurants in the Hermanus region. Keep it up guys. You are great!!
Generous and delicious helpings of fish and meat cooked in the pizza oven but the veg was burnt. Friday night was very busy and we had to wait over an hour and a half for our main course. Service was slow and the wooden table and benches became quite uncomfortable. Must book or rather go in the week but highly recommended
Lovely atmosphere and generous portions
Good food and friendly service, a bit slow at times. They dont warn if a dish is spicy, so have had a few dishes that were too spicy for me to eat even with a milkshake. Obviously not a problem if you like spicy food.Also spilled a drink because of a hole in the table that was hidden by their table cloth but was still billed for it which I felt was a bit unfair.
Good value for money. Their hake is fabulous. Good service.
Nice place. Good service, good food... Favourite for locals
Lovely ambience. Steak good. Fish done in pizza oven outstanding
Over crowded food awful service average, def. Not equipped for holiday season!
Great food with fantastic people serving
Always very good food ..great staff...Gordon a brilliant chef.
Service out of this world lovely food with even the chef coming to great at table and asking for feedback.Congratulations on a great restaurant, serving fantastic and tasteful food and service that will be hard to beat
Love this place
I had the spaghetti arabiatta. It wasnt fabulous, needed something. Friend had sole and priced at R220.00 we thought a tad overpriced. Also a little underdone.
The best way to describe this restaurant is the kitchen and the 2 African ladies dressed in their brightly colored uniforms. They cook all the the dishes with passion bit I strongly recommand the lamb shank. An amazing experience.
What a great place to eat. All the meat was just fantastic! Really felt at home!Cant wait to be back!
Always fantastic. The Gordon Blue is amazing.
Best restaurant and food in the Overberg with competitive prices. Great staff
Always great..... fast service, fab food 👍😀
Lovely restaurant with excellent food. No noisy kids running around. Always a pleasure to go there.
Great atmosphere, friendly staff. Good service and good pizzas
Excellent food and service. Never disappoints. Best tasting fresh yellow tail when available.
Moltenos small cozy informal restaurant with lots of friendly people and you can always expect a good meal. Sit back relax and enjoy 🍷🍷
Remember to book and youll have a seat for a great evening.
Good food, friendly service and great local atmosphere.
Great food. Fantastic Sunday roast. Although I didnt have it, it looked sublime and all comments were very positive. I had the pizza oven-baked Kabeljou. Not cheap, but worth every cent. On top of this a complimentary chilli chutney to die for - made in-house. Real Sunday family meal atmosphere. Rest of table had pasta and also good reviews all round. They will see us again. Must book.
This is Onrus best kept secret. Amazing food, staff and vibe. A must.
First visit and it was GREAT !!
A few friends and I got takeaway pizzas from here because we saw reviews raving about them, however we were thoroughly disappointed. The main problem was the type of cheese used, it was clearly not mozzarella as it had the appearance, taste and texture of Melrose cheese, which was very off putting. The pizzas were also very soggy and mine was completely stuck to the bottom of the box towards the middle.
Linefish of the day was amazing! Cozy place, very friendly staff. Pizza was very good too!!!
Always an awesome experience. The Pork Belly and Chicken Schnitzel are gastronomic delights.
Friendly service, a great menu, the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly and I would definitely recommend it. The perfect place for a beer with friends after a day spent fishing.
Always nice! Never disappoints.
Great local and popular restuarant. The food is really good and tasty. Will frequently more often
My favourite restaurant ever..and I have lots to choose from living in cape town... Gordon is an excellent chef
The food is always outstanding and cooked to perfection. Amazing atmosphere.
Our very best Italian Restaurant- try their chicken liver pasta (hot or mild - but a mix of both is best)
This is a great place if you want good food and a super night out. The service and food always of the best
Very good. Food excellent. Service fast and friendly.
I felt special from entering the restaurant till I left. Wonderful cuisine, great atmosphere, great experience. Will be back! Mariette
Every single visit is just só unique and special...great service and scrumptious food
Average food, slow service, reasonable prices. There are much better options.
Great atmosphere, good service, excellent food. Really enjoyed the evening

A cosy place for a meal and a drink. Hosts very welcoming.
Good food and people

Moltenos is a restaurant I have been acquainted with since its inception. It is situated in the very agreeable quiet village of Onrus a kilometer west of Hermanus.The owner and his now wife launched their restaurant concept and instantly gained an avid following, which survives to this day. The ambience is in keeping with the tranquil, lay back feel of Western Cape at its best.Don´t get the impression this is too quiet for your tastes. I have some of my most memorable times there. Coupled with the wholesome, flavoursome and beautifully cooked food it is by far one of the most welcoming venues around.It may be construed as just my particular view because of my and my wifes long association with Moltenos. It could be levelled that my views are enhanced by the familiarity with restaurant, friends and familiar ambience. We ll that is undeniableMy friends and I are so familiar with the venue, because the food is so good and so dependable. The staff are friendly and everything combines to offer a memorable experience to one and all at very reasonable prices. Thereby making repeated visits a must.
Quaint and personal with great service and excellent dishes... a best for Onrus and surrounds
The most consistently good restaurant in Hermanus.
Perfectly great restaurant to enjoy a delicious dinner, highly recommend.
Family run restaurant with feel and good food for visitors and locals alike. Well prepared, no frills and fuss
Great food and lovely anbience and vibe as always... certainly an all time favourite
