Description:
BLUES "BEACH HOUSE" RESTAURANT, a long standing ICON of Camps Bay in Cape Town, boasts magnificent sunsets and sea views overlooking Africa's premier Camps Bay beach.

Blues has been recently renovated to adapt its iconic location into one that encompasses the legacy on which the Blues Brand was created, while tailoring the experience to be in tune with the latest 21st century restaurant trends.

25 years on yet built on the same principles of food and service on which we began, Blues has tailored an environment for dining that glorifies the casual magnificence of our Beachfront location, with the new décor such that guests feel as though they are dining on the beach as opposed to next to it.

Menus, with a predominantly Mediterranean influence and a contemporary use of local ingredients, are carefully planned by our Chefs and family owners. Our wine list, selected after a lengthy and enjoyable wine tasting process, consists of mostly South African Estate Wines from a wide variety of cultivars and regionsService is energized, with the buzzing theatre of the open kitchen resonating through the restaurant, as the freshest ingredients are prepared to order.

The restaurant is run by the youthful duo of Lorenzo Magni & Nick Sheperd, who take the helm as an exciting new era begins.

For those who have not visited for a while, come and see the revamped venue and the passionate new team, from the comfort of the best view in Camps Bay!

A Birthday to Remember, 23 Apr 2008
Reviewer: anonymous (Adventurousness: I'll order it as per the menu.)

Comments: We were lucky enough to get a window seat, and had the most colourful sunset. The Food was perfect and the service fantastic. The Prices are a bit high, but it was worth it.
