This was a highlight. We had such an amazing evening with family. Play area is AMAZING!!! We will most def be back. Thank you for your amazing service.Oh and the food was amazing!10/10
Celebrated our daughters Birthday here for the 3rd year in a row. Always such great service and food. Perfect for both the kids and adultsA special thanks to Zibo and Albert today!
A lovely scenic spot, large kiddies play area.Had breakfast and thats where things fell apart a bit. We waited for quite some time to have our order taken and then the order was incorrect with one of our meals alongside many pieces of very burnt toast.We will be back to try the lunch menu, maybe we will have a better experience then....
Kids Entertainment: 10 out of 10. Grass, space, jungle gym, and light aircraft in the sky.Kids Food: Standard options. Would have preferred a healthy option for kids, not just the usual chicken strips, chips and pizza. My daughter ended up eating the salad on the adult plates. My son devoured the pizza. Why not have both options available?Prices: above average, but worth it.Service: Shaun/Charl? (sorry) went above and beyond. Exceptional!Food: above average - not outstanding, but very good.View: Priceless sunset with Table Mountain in the background.
This is a wonderful place to accommodate the entire family. Great menu selection. The food was delicious. The kids had the best time playing outside. Inviting ambience. Good food takes time to prepare so do not be in a hurry.
Exquisite! A trip for us down memory lane. My parents used to live in Somerset West and in the 90s attended this restaurant often. It was one of their favorites! My Dad passed away and Mum always wanted to return so we did last weekend and we only had brunch but it was lovely. The food, the ambiance and the setting. Thank you so much for keeping it so special. Even with modernization it still holds our memories. Natty
Ive been visiting this restaurant regularly for the past year and were never dissapointed. Well done! Good food,good service very friendly and welcoming staff. Great specials.
Oh boy, the views are breathtaking and food highly rated too
Besf place for any birthday bash. Value for money and what a view.
La Pineta is a very nice place to go with family, i love that its very kid friendly. Their weekday specials is a definite win for meI recommend their eisbein and wood fired pizzas
Very nice experience. My 3rd time here and I enjoyed it. The oxtail pizza is unique and the price is perfect.
One of my favorite restaurants. The owners are absolutely 💯 service champions. It is rare to see such involvement. The food is well prepared, service is on point and kids have ample play ground.
Great views and good venue to take kids with large kids play area. Plenty of parking outside the venue and extensive menu with a bit of everything. Good service.
One of the Best restaurants in town. Great food, even better serves...
Delicious food, great service and a superb view! Im a regular customer and always have a great time.
Big disappointment... That I have only just found this place after frequenting the Stellenbosch area for so many years. This is by far one of the most beautiful gems ever. The restaurant is very well laid out with lovely areas with wonderful bay windows that open right back. A spacious deck that literally overlooks the whole of the Cape flats all the way to the Table Mountain range making for exceptional sunsets. The lawns are meticulously looked after along with the gardens and childrens play area. The play area is populated and well kept and with variety and all in excellent working order.The hostess was incredibly welcoming and attentive and quickly had our chairs changed out for two of our guests with back injuries, without us even asking. Her waitron and bar team were all super attentive and showed a solid culture. I heard many regulars catching up with the staff.On the way in I also noticed a wonderful reception and banquet area for parties (in the pics herewith) entirely separate but also with great setting.I was afraid to order as I didnt want the exceptional experience to possibly be tainted by mediocre food. Well, they totally aced that as well with every dish and the paired wine being exceptional.So Ill quench my disappointment of missing out on this amazing place by making it my go to every time Im in that area in future.
Absolutely love the place and their food... The scenery is very nice and beautiful... This is worth coming to for that special occasion and more...
Fantastic anniversary lunch. Treated like royalty. Food and service 1st class.
Food was good, most enjoyable lunch. Will definitely visit again.
Amazing setting, food was delicious and staff friendly and courteous. Well worth it. Will definately be back.
We went here to celebrate my moms birthday. Food was delicious and the service was great. Staff were also very accommodating wrt to bringing in a cake and wine for the table. I highly recommend a visit.
Friendly staff, an amazing location engulfed by wonderful vineyards and delicious fresh food.
Excellent Belly pork special lunch.Service a bit slow and not always accurate.Nice outdoor seating area and kids play area.
Generous portions, great prices. Super accommodating service
Great menu selection. Went for mothers day set menu and it was great! Their weekly specials are also worth going back for any day of the week...
I decided to try out La Pineta after driving passed it so many times to and from tastings Ive done in the area, I am glad I decided to see what all the fuss is about. The atmosphere is just amazing, especially during sunset. Theres a lovely play area for the little ones and the staff are all just too kind. The Gin and Tonic on tap was really nice and I loved that the beef burger came with both salad and chips, so I didnt feel so guilty having carbs. U cant wait to visit again, thanks for making us feel welcome here.
Great food. Waiter was a bit forgetful. Nice ambiance and setting.
Lovely interior! Friendly hostess, only downer was the long wait for food, we ordered our main together with our one starter but it took a considerable time to come and even after asking about where it was it took some time, no particular reason for the delay was given. The mains, steak were average, dessert was better and they made a bit more effort, in terms of a birthday message which was nice thank you.
Still a good outing, last been here quite a few years ago. Lovely food, ambience and great service
The venue was perfect the food was really good the service was great, play area for the kids perfect. Will definitely return
Lovely ambience , delicious foods and friendly service.
Our fabourite restaurant too take the kids when the weather is great. Big area for them too play outside.

Always a lovely, relaxing family friendly place to go. Food always great!
Lovely relaxed setting for a family lunch. Delicious food and good setting
Large variety of main dishes and of excellent quality. Low corkage cost, but also a decent variety of wines available. Cocktails are jet fuel!
Lovely evening spent with special friends.
Nice restaurant, good food with plant based options.
This is our 2nd time having dinner at La Pineta. Dinner was awesome... Including the service
Superb food, very kind staff, nice atmosphere and the view.
Friendly service, great food and amazing play area for the children. Outside options for seating if social distancing is a concern. Only losing a star for an extended wait for food to arrive but perhaps we got unlucky with a large table inside ordering at the same time as us.
Had to say that this place has it all. a nice kiddies play area , large grass area , jungle gym, sand pit, the works everything.Food was excellent would definetly reccommend this place for parents with kiddies. It was just great and the scenic view is awesome.
Fabulous setting, excellent food!
Good food and good service 👍
Great food!! Breakfast or Lunch, does not disappoint. I have not had a negative experience yet.
Wow! What an experience! Absolutely love this place, was our first time here, but definitely not the last.Food was amazing!!And even begin so busy the staff was on it!
Had the best time with the kids. They loved the play area with the awesome jungle gyms and super large sand pit. The large play area was enclosed and open - so we could also relax a bit.
Probably our favourite Stellenbosch restaurant. Definitely the best view over vineyards and out to Table Mountain.Fantastic food, excellent kids playground.And a special shout out to Adkins: our waiter went way beyond the call of duty to resolve a kid’s tantrum by having a patient conversation about dessert with our tired little boy who was sulking outside. Thanks Adkins!!
My new favorite place. Love the vibe, excellent service and amazing value fir money on tasty food
