Le Chêne - Franschhoek

We did a 10-course tasting with the wine pairing and it was divine. If you're trying to pick between Le chene and Le petite colombe, pick Le chene. Every single course was well-thought-out, delicious, beautiful, interesting, and a complete sensory experience. The wine pairings were perfect and the service was friendly and earnest. And the view was just stunning. Very highly recommended!

Leeu experience was subpar, as we were told to park in overflow parking and a shuttle would collect us, but after waiting, it didn't come and so we had to walk a good distance, in very cold weather, dressed for a nice night out. This consequently made us 15+mins late for our reservation. We had wanted to do the 7 course tasting, but were told we couldn't. Wondering why that wasn't conveyed via email earlier than being told after we sat down? Admittedly, we were late, but not sure that amount of time was the difference between eating 7 courses and the 3 we actually consumed. Given curfew protocols and expectations, that is an obvious necessity, but again, could be better communicated. The food- okay. nothing was bad, but nothing was memorable. The wine pairing was fine and so was the service. Nothing bad to complain about, but it just didn't have a fine-dine feel. Definitely good, just not great. The sommelier was friendly and excited about his food. One drink paired with the chocolate dessert was spot-on and added to the dish, where as the wine paired with the honey felt a bit too sweet paired with an overly sweet dessert. He was keen to hear a suggestion and excited that we enjoyed the other wines, which were a fun selection.

Beautiful view and great food.Staff delivers 5 star quality service.Great food!

Beautiful setting Amazing delicate food. You choose between a 2 or 3 course menu. Portions not huge but it s all about refinement

We had an amazing 52° fillet steak. A dream of a dish. Just perfect. The staff is friendly. There is a nice garden and different spaces to sit. Nice mountain views. Together with the surrounding wine yard with terrific art work this was a breath taking experience!
