Wolfgat Paternoster Reviews
Full respect to Wolfgat , top of the top.
Award winning chef Kobus has his finger on the button. Having a menu that you can Google is not what Wolfgat is all about. Expect the unexpected , Kobus is hands on and aims to please. Each course was more exiting that the next. Well done , best dini
Disappointing
This was a very disappointing meal given the hype this restaurant has gotten. Whilst the view was excellent and the staff friendly enough the overall arrogant and self satisfied attitude the place exudes put my back up. Iโve eaten at many many exce
Presumptuous overpriced non experience
I am unable to comprehend how you can charge for this. The reason you pay upfront is because there is no ways you would pay for this at the time. They ply you with unheard of wines some which was really good but the food was way below par. I would no
SUPERB!,
Wonderful location, beautiful food, superb wine paring. An experience of a lifetime. Having been to many of the top restaurants in South Africa I cannot but recommend Wolfgang as a standout amongst all of them. Chef patron Kobus van der Merwe has cre
A carefully curated full- sense experience worth every single Rand.
This was a sublime full senses experience. We went all out and had the 7 course food pairing with recommended wines, expertly described by the chef himself. In low season the restaurant only sits 10 people- so we were super- lucky to have booked
Wonderful execution
Tip top resto. Kobus himself serves many of the courses. The wine list is reasonable and so is the cost of the meal. The big Cape Town restaurants are now pretentiously priced but this fabulous little spot really brings itโs A game. Will be back as
A bucket list that did not disappoint
Wolfgat did not disappoint! A nine course meal of utter culinary mastery. From freshly baked bread with bokkom butter, differently prepared oysters (one with watermelon), cabbage tacos, braaied calamari with oyster mushrooms (yes, I even ate them), t
Beautiful setting and interesting food
The setting is unbeatable, with an open view over the sea and the beach. The food is many small portions of beautifully arranged ingredients and flavors, and the service is very kind. If you do not drink alcohol there is a very creative selection of

Great experienceโฆif you donโt expect the best restaurant of the world
After a long wait (four months to get a table) we had the privilege to enjoy a great lunch at Wolfgat. Super authentic cuisine with a lot of creativity and well presented. Atmosphere is very simple and natural corresponding to the Chef and the place.
Wolfgat - expensive but an experience to remember.
I could see the passion that went into every dish. The ingredients however is not to everybodies taste. If you are not very adventurist with your food, skip this restaurant. The prices for everything also makes your eyes water. The biggest disappoint
Amazing experience!
I read the bad reviews below but we couldn't agree with them. The food was really tasty and special and we were lucky enough to have a cloudless and wind-free afternoon. Well worth the drive from Noordhoek (2.5 hours). Next time I would skip the some
A waste of money
Total waste of time and money for the food. We enjoyed the wine. The only dish that we enjoyed was the bread. We left hungry and searching for places still serving. No luck and we went to bed hungry. Clearly, this is a passion for the chef. I dou
Too good times with friends
Great spot for a gathering food was top notch and service was excellent would definitely go back this place is a 10 out of 10๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป
Best customer service
We received the best service ever and the customer service was on top of the range.i would like to go there again.will be seeing you soon
Unforgettable experience in a magic setting with surprising and memorable food.
This is a restaurant that is unlike almost any other. Itโs a seaside shack overlooking the beach, so you can watch the fishing boats going about their work and watch the sea breaking gently against the wide open beach. With only 20 covers and one s
Creative, but clearly overrated
The location, above the wide beach of Paternoster, is exceptional. This also applies to the creativity of the cuisine, which is limited to regional products. However, the culinary result is not always convincing, especially when uncooked materials ar
Tick it off your bucket list
Been trying to get in for years , regular visit za every jan/feb. Lunch table 12.30 great t the time of booking, reviewing menus and the actual menu never seen the food cost ! Move on Set menu Heavy on mussels and bi values and foraged items. The se

Theatre of Food
The very best eating experience of my life. I didn't know what I was eating half the time but my taste buds were in heaven. I would drive for 5 hours just to eat there again. If you want a gastronomic experience you have to go to Wolfgat. Kobus and h
A fantastic evening!
This restaurant was booked well in advance & I must admit I wasnโt sure what to expect. We arrived to an unassuming building, but when you are seated on the outside terrace, overlooking the sea, you realise something special is afoot. Both the
Ridiculously overrated
Where to start. We booked 4 months in advance for my wife's birthday and were extremely excited to have the opportunity to dine at one of the "best restaurants in the world". My wife, being a devout member of the foodie culture, read up ev
Great evening but a few surprises.
Great evening, stunning views from the balcony of the restaurant but it did get cold, very un usual food which we enjoyed experiencing, but a few strange things, first, when we were seated, there was a note of a 200ZR price increase per person which
exited to get a table.....very little 'wow' factor
We were delighted to get a table for lunch. The setting is magnificent. Our expectations were high as we knew about it's reputation and awards. The menu was 7 courses made up of 4 fish/seafood dishes, one vegetable, one fruit and a pudding. The s
Exceptional
2016 The sweep of the bay that meets you on arrival is awe inspiring and certainly the best view of all the places I have visited and stayed at in Paternoster. This matched by the smell of fresh baked bread and the minimalist kitchen with its clean l
Canโt wait for the next menu
We got a lucky with a late cancellation and managed to get a lunch booking at Wolfgat. Itโs a set menu with locally harvested foods only. Wines are also local. 7 course meal that does not leave you wanting nor too much. A beautiful setting on the b
Fantastic!
We were happy with our reservation. Food is fabulous and in the right portions. We do not like pairing wines so instead they advised us with a very nice bottle of wine that matched all the dishes. Kobus is a bit of a "character". As we are
Wolfgat - December 2022
We had the privilege of acquiring a reservation at Wolfgat in December 2022. From the first bite to the very last the quality, tastes and presentation of each meal was a work of art. The wine pairing is an absolute must as each sip of wine complime
Twice as nice
So I came back after 2 years and I have to sayโฆ.it was even better. The old favourite bokkom (west coast dried fish) butter with sourdough bread was elevated. The 8 course menu was just absolutely delightful and they added a meat course as well. I
Difficult to find, hard to get a reservation but well worth it in the end.
Just of the main street in Paternoster, lies a small fisherman's cottage with a big reputation and absolutely stunning views of Paternoster beach and bay. The atmosphere is intimate, with only 7 tables on the stoop. The food and wine are locally s

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Wolfgat Paternoster at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Wolfgat Paternoster page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Wolfgat Paternoster to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Wolfgat Paternoster!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
