What people say
Reverie Social Table is a unique and delightful restaurant located in the charming neighborhood of Observatory in Cape Town. Chef patron Julia Hattingh has created a proudly South African table d’hôte style eatery that focuses on social dining. The highlight of the experience is sitting around the bespoke 18-seater table and enjoying a five-course meal that has been exclusively created for guests, accompanied by carefully selected wines.
What sets Reverie Social Table apart from other restaurants is the emphasis on putting away cell phones and engaging with fellow diners. This creates an intimate and convivial atmosphere that is perfect for those who love food, wine, and great company. Booking is essential, but both reservations and payment can be made online for convenience.
The price point of R700 per person for a five-course meal including wine (excluding gratuity) may seem steep, but it is well worth it for the exceptional quality of food and service provided at Reverie Social Table. Credit card facilities are also available at the venue, making payment easy and hassle-free.
Overall, Reverie Social Table offers an unforgettable dining experience that celebrates South African cuisine while fostering social connections among guests. It's no wonder why this restaurant has become a favorite among locals and tourists alike!
