Why Travelers Love Fyn Restaurant
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Wonderful experience. Food was amazing, and they catered so well for our dietary requirements. Service was excellent. The prices were high, but in line with a fine dining experience, and in my opinion, worth it. I will definitely go again. From the warm welcome to the quality of the dishes, an absolutely incredible experience. Staff are wonderful, playful and respectful, all at the same time. Dishes are a great fusion between Japanese techniques and South African ingredients. The wine pairings (3 options) are all expensive (the middle choice is the same as the entire course dinner) so we chose some excellent glasses and a fine bottle. Would skip the liquid nitrogen in ons of the dishes as that’s been done too many times in restaurants now. Overall I would highly recommend Fyn, one of the best dining experiences ever. We went as a family in September. The atmosphere lovely and it’s beautiful inside. The service outstanding! For sure! BUT!!!! The food was bad. Especially for the money you pay! It’s ridiculous in fact… and sad… Out of all the dishes there was one we all liked, a little “fried” sushi type of dish…. My one cocktail was almost R300 and I had 4 sips, that’s it! This has been my fourth fine dining experience and I honestly would rather have Spur food than go back for the food. Sorry, but they need to work on bettering the food when they charge that much.

The food was amazing and the cocktails just as good. It was a real treat to sit at the chef bar and watch the masters at work. They were kind enough to interact with us and let us take photos of what they were doing. The staff were extremely friendly and the service was excellent. We are truly spoilt in Cape Town to have restaurants like Fyn on our doorstep to enjoy.
