  Honestly how this restaurant is rated as number 2 in Cape Town is above my level of comprehension. Your “seafood platter” was actually the 2nd worst platter I have had in my life and that is saying a lot given the fact I have lived abroad and travelled quite a bit. Your presentation must have been done by a 5 year old to say the least and that is insulting a child. A blob of risotto with mussels stuck into it?? Never mind your chorizo that was charcoaled to perfection and the “paella” style risotto that was over salty, with a taste worthy of an inexperience first time cook! Bland fish cakes and tastes that just did not work together, I must say the seafood platter at ocean basket beats you hands down on taste even though the quality of your ingredients are better. For a Groupon deal you honestly have taken the Mickey out of people. NO wonder all the “Groupon” people vouchers were put in on room, you must have been too embarrassed to let other clients see this. I would!! And as for the; presentation a black slab with a glass square filled with sea sand and ugly shells... well enough said... This is by far the worst Groupon deal we have tried!
