Sundays at Sunbird Restaurant are the kind of day that stays with you.
Where lunch lingers long after the last plate is cleared. Where the music drifts in from the corner of the room and complements the conversation. Where the food is the kind that reminds you why sitting down together still matters.
Every Sunday, you'll find familiar faces, a table that feels like yours, live music and a kitchen team that puts genuine care into every plate.
Our Roasted Lamb Shank is a Sunny Side Sunday signature - slow-roasted, deeply flavoured and the kind of dish that belongs exactly where it is. Every week, without fail.
We'll see you at the table.

There's something about a beautiful winter's day at Sunbird Restaurant, that view, good company, and a drink in hand.
Cape Town winters know how to show off. ☀️🥂

Winter has a way of making you crave exactly this. 🍛
Warm bowls. Good company. No rush. That was Curry Night at Sunbird Restaurant last week, and it was everything.
Next one is Wednesday, 1 July. Same good vibes, same incredible food from Signature Chef Scott Hendrie. Don't sit this one out.

An evening worth savouring.
Sunbird Restaurant welcomed guests to an extraordinary Wine & Dine experience last week - featuring the culinary artistry of our Signature Chef Scott Hendrie paired with the exceptional wines of De Grendel.
From the delicate Caprese Bruschetta paired with De Grendel MCC, to Phyllo-wrapped Prawns with De Grendel Chardonnay, a showstopping Dukkha Crusted Ostrich Fillet alongside the Op Die Berg Merlot, and an Apple Poached Pear with Cinnamon Meringue to close. Perfection on a plate, from start to finish.
To everyone in our community who joined us for this special evening, thank you. Evenings like these are made by the people who fill the room.
And if you missed this one, mark your calendar. Our next Wine & Dine presented by Signature Chef Scott is on 24 June with Stellenbosch Reserve Winery.

👀 Look at that stack.
Our classic Wagyu Cheeseburger with fennel slaw, bacon jam, lettuce, dill cucumber, fresh tomatoes, crowned with crispy onion rings, and served with twice-fried homemade chips.
This is what community tastes like.

Golden Hour is a little softer here.
Our sunset views have a way of slowing everything down … pause, breathe, and take it all in 🌅

Parma Ham. Feta. Avo. Peppadews. A little bit of this and a little bit of that - One good shake and it’s pure magic.
Our renowned wood-fired pizzas are a community favourite. Which is your favourite?

And what better way to savour the present than a Sunday brunch or lunch at Sunbird Restaurant?
Think Eggs Onassis or Chicken and Peppadew Roulade. Chef Scott has given our Sunny Side Sundays menu a delicious refresh. Link in bio for the full menu.
