Gardens Restaurants

For the best in Asian cuisine, try Chef Pon’s Asian Kitchen. A nice selection of wines is available, as well as Tiger beer, which is well worth a try. The decor is simple and the service is friendly in this vibrant spot. Well worth stopping by for a relaxed dinner or just to grab a takeaway to enjoy at home.

This trendy hotspot in Kloof Street, Gardens brings the taste of the Orient to Cape Town. The elegant Vietnamese menu tinged Japanese influences provides a colourful and orchestral explosion of taste and flavours. For starters try the grilled chicken skewers or do-it-yourself lettuce wraps layered with prawns, fresh herbs, noodles and sweet chilli sauce. Popular main courses such as the chicken cashew nuts, spicy beef basil with chilli sauce and the battered Saigon ginger fish tantalize and come with a selection rice or noodles. Desert pleases with Saigon's exotic deep-fried ice cream – a melt in the mouth batter casting filled with ice cream then served with their honey syrup. The ambiance beckons relaxation and indulgence flanked by magnificent views of Table Mountain! Booking essential.
