    5 star views of Table Mountain from the seaside setting. The outdoors Veranda seating has the best view. The restaurant is open to the public. The entrance is within the parking area of Milnerton golf club. Patrons can park in the golf club parking area. Stairs lead up to the restaurant. My suggestion is to go for a walk on Milnerton beach followed by a coffee or meal at Bossa.

    First time that myself and my partner tried Bossa and it was really a go-back-to restaurant. Some of the tables are quite a bit close together but overall? Really really nice! The food was divine and the drinks was good. The pricing is not bad at all, for the good quality you receive The atmosphere is cool, and the staff are very accomodating. Architecture and decor of the restaurant is also quite impressive. Everything was just beautiful. Definitely going to try the other branches.

    Lovely setting with beautiful view of the ocean and mountain while you enjoy the delicious food on the such a widely ranged menu. Went with a group that all ordered different meals, and every dish was divine. I would go back anytime.

    Bossa never dissapoints. Service and quality of the food is always great. The location here just adds some character to the setting. Pricing is also moderate, great to take customers to Bossa. Will be back when in CT.

    This place has the best burgers ever! So juicy and tasty. Beautiful sea views and lots of parking. Did I mention you get burger specials on Mondays... the price you pay for those mouthwatering burgers is unbelievable!!!

    Lovely place with plenty of sitting space which is suitable for any kind of weather, be it summer to experience the sea waves and water sound or windy winter with cozy closed warm space. This is just on the beach with stunning table mountain, lions head and sea view. Food variety is also great to accommodate everyone and sporty bar to enjoy watching the sport you love. Try out their bugers, simply amazing. Kids love this place more in summer’s.

    Was there with some friends and the service was amazing. The Burgers are really the best in Cape Town and an addition stunning view of the sunset and Table mountain. Highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.

    The service was fantastic for our tables of 35 guests. The food was served all at the same time for each course . The starters have generous portions and one of my guests commented that she had found the best chicken livers in Cape Town. The food was tasty, hot, and fabulous. There were no complaints from anyone in our party. They were stuffed from starters and mains and most could not even have a dessert. The waiters were attentive and went the extra mile to ensure that we were never short of drinks or takeaway containers. The tables were setup impeccably and the venue is situated where you get the best views in Cape Town. Bossa Woodbridge Island you have outdone yourselves as you always do. Thank you for making my son's birthday a success.

    Had their Elvis Burger which did not disappoint at all, and their curry which was succulent. I love the fact that thy have generous portions, which is great value for money. They have decent prices as well. Enjoyed my lunch there.

    3 starts because of the location. Great setup and finishes, the view of the bay is amazing but the slowness of ordering drinks and food is bad. They were not even busy for breakfast yet our coffees and meals took ages to come out and even had to chase them which should have been the case. Much room for improvement unfortunately. Further updates to follow as we would like to try a dinner here as well in the near future.

    It was a perfect day. Just a zephyr to cool on a very hot day.cloudless skies. Gentle waves creating background music. the menu is very imaginative. Very reasonable too.R69.99 for my veggee stuffed wrap and sweetpotato fries.Bossa was full on the deck but service from the friendly watron Marilyn never faltered.

    My family and I really enjoyed eating here. We went during sunset, and the view was incredible, and the vibe was good. Despite the restaurant being full, service was good and food did not take too long. Everyone in my family enjoyed their food. I would recommend making a booking, since the restaurant is quite popular, and you would want to get a nice seat for the view. Just a reminder to take a jacket if you’re going to sit outside, it does get windy and cold after sunset. I would recommend going here!

  • 2/5 Megan C. 3 years ago on Google
    I thought would have good experience. Asking for outside table was a battle. People coming after me was referred outside, very disappointing. Then wrong order. 😐 First time and last time here... Manager doesn't care, for me became a race thing as well. At least felt like it.

  • 3/5 franscois w. 3 years ago on Google
    Needs nice day time music to match the beach vibes, not put the lights on in the day because it really increases the heat in a place on a day when it's already 30+ outside

  • 1/5 chantel b. 3 years ago on Google
    The service was disgusting, my first time and last time... Waiters ignore you, waiting for service was hectic

  • 5/5 Timothy M. 1 year ago on Google
    Bossa Woodbridge Island is one of my favourite spots in Milnerton. The staff are very welcoming, their food is affordable with numerous lunch specials and their view is unreal. If you’d like to have a sunset table, make a reservation to avoid disappointment. Highly recommended for groups, lunch dates, business meetings, a spot to work during the day or even a late night celebration with friends.

  • 3/5 Sarah C. 2 years ago on Google
    Started out well, nice cocktails and attentive staff. Food order took an absolute age to arrive at our table. My fillet steak was not cut well, although butterflied, there was sinew running through it as well as not served hot. My friend's burger was so overcooked she could not eat it. We were not charged for the burger, thank goodness. The view was lovely but we will not be returning.

    I’ve eaten at this chain restaurant before, but this is my first at the Woodbridge Island venue. It’s an absolutely stunning location, made more so by the fact that there isn’t a ghastly parking lot between you and the sea. Most SA restaurants are restricted by some ludicrous by-law that means your car enjoys the better views. There’s a links course next door so possibly a loophole was found with local council liquor licensing. That aside, it’s a well run, mid-market establishment, complete with slightly sticky outdoor bench/table things. I would imagine on a busy weekend it would get quite festive, but I’ll never know. As it is, on a relatively quiet Tuesday lunch it was a pleasure to be here. Excellent staff, an extensive menu for what is essentially a pub on steroids, a good wine list and very fair prices. I had a fish/calamari pan and it was remarkably good. Frozen, obviously, but defrosted correctly (slowly) and not slathered in batter and oozing oil. The calamari was dusted and fried, a much better option. I suspect Patagonia tubes as they might not be the most flavoursome but they are almost bulletproof against toughness. At the price, a very good meal, reminiscent of Chappies in the eighties, but without the need to sell a kidney. Lastly, unless you’re in a place that requires a second bond to walk in, or a tiny ten-seater in a harbour hamlet next to the boats or a knit-your-own-muesli spot with questionable hygiene and tax records both, the fish is frozen and comes in a box by truck. Get over it.

    What a wonderful restaurant. From the atmosphere to the staff to the amazing food. And not to forget about the view! This is my new go-to spot. Will 100% reccommend.

  • 5/5 Vian B. 3 months ago on Google New
    Awesome location for sunset cocktails and the food was great. The atmosphere was good but still quite calm (no abruptly loud music or rowdy people). The view of Table Mountain was great as well! A definite highlight of the Milnerton area.

  • 3/5 Angel M. 5 months ago on Google
    Location, the view is amazing, but avoid the burgers there! The service was quite slow in taking the order and asking for the check. The snails with mozzarella was superb! The “best burger in town” was disappointment! I asked for medium to medium rare but the burgers were more than well done and very dry!

  • 5/5 Ms N. 6 months ago on Google
    Right next to the beach, so great ocean and table mountain views. There's lots on offer from the menu and the food is delicious. Lovely atmosphere as well. It can get quite windy if you're seated outside.

  • 2/5 Terry-lee A. 4 months ago on Google
    My nachos came half burnt and very dry, and the chicken we literally plucked long feathers out of the wings. It took 36 minutes for our drinks to arrive since order, and 52 minutes for our food. The waiter was kind and friendly but they werent really effecient as he only appeared to take or bring our orders, no check to see if wed want anything extra or if we ok. As we a group shared our meals, on the menu it states 8 buffalo wings and received 7, when she told the waiter, the reply was that the head chef says the weight of 1 wing equate to 2 wings...she ended up receiving 8 wings, but the menu clearly states 8 wings, weight is no excuse. Mojitos tatses terrible but...Upside, their jam jars are delicious, their wine is not too expensive and its an extremely beautiful view.

  • 5/5 Grey M. 4 months ago on Google
    Loved the atmosphere and the food and waitresses were friendly , Josh is a great waiter and the lady that helps us too..I just forgot her name. Parking is inside at the Booms , I first got there walking around to the far left side at the fence near the beach , that's not the entry ⛔ but at the Boom. What you will appreciate is the view , bring along shades for the sun , at the outside seating ....will definitely come again..prices are reasonable..

  • 5/5 Antonio D. 3 years ago on Google
    I am a chef myself and decided to visit Bossa Milnerton as was very impressed. Covid protocol in place. Friendly Welcome. Had steaks in the bar and the meat was soft and juicy and well presented. The waitress Pearl was dynamic and very helpful. Drinks arrived minutes after we ordered. And the food arrive about 10 minutes after that. Well Done Bossa Team. I highly recommend this fantastic Gem of Excellent service. Food and vibrant atmosphere. I give you guys 10 out 10 Super impressed Chef Antonio Do Carmo

  • 5/5 Clara C. 3 years ago on Google
    Very rarely do I find a restaurant that completely leaves me speechless. From the superb view of table mountain, the large, grassy, parking area to the large covered / open outside area, the COVID protocols, clean toilets, super friendly and efficient waiting staff, delicious hot coffee to the tasty and well prepared food I only found fault with one thing - the lack of a proper doggy water bowl...😎. Well done ! We will definitely be back. Update I ordered the promo pizza and it was delicious. The beer was cold and the service great. Well done again

  • 4/5 Darren F. 3 years ago on Google
    Bossa is a great go to if you're not sure what you feel like as they have a wide variety to choose from. It's right on the beach which is great for walking off your food afterwards. Service can get a little slow when they are very busy, but the food is always worth the wait. Their Rumba pizza is great - not too much mayo and a thin and crispy base.

  • 5/5 Christo B. 3 years ago on Google
    Great service, great food, it was a Rocky start after the Lockdown pressures, but I am proud to say that their standards are now back on track, lovely place and I recommend having one of their famous wood fire pizzas

  • 5/5 Dorian M. 3 years ago on Google
    What an amazing place to work at 😎👌🎯. Lovely big space like they saw the pandemic coming and super friendly amazing staff. Even had a long conversation at the bar with the waiter and he kept it professional and short and I made a new business friend too with all the massive screens and sports while you enjoy the beautiful ocean view and the community enjoying the beach and you on the top floor above it all watching the ships park for the docks 😊😎👌💯 definitely worth a try if not I'm going soon

  • 1/5 JJ D. 3 years ago on Google
    The food and location is great but the service is absolutely horrible. This is the second time we have visited Bossa - been seated - and we had to get up after 15 minutes to ask for menus or any service in general.

    Very poor experience. I've always been excited to go to Bossa in Woodbridge Island due to the view, however my experience there was completely appauling. My husband, myself & daughter went on Sun 28th of Feb, arrived at 8pm.. We got our menus & half an hour later we were still waiting for someone to place our order. I had to stop a waiter to ask what's going on, only to be advised that the kitchen is not taking orders anymore & this was disputed to the manager & the manager will get back to us & have this sorted. No-one came back to us after that we waited, no manager no waiter nothing. Had to leave which not only left us disappointed but my daughter sad as she cudnt have her fav meal which is a pizza. Why do have people seated if your kitchen is closed when the closing times shows that you serve until late & your website shows closing time 20m the next morning?! Heads up to Bossa in Stellenbosch, I absolutely loved the service there.

  • 3/5 Angela 3 years ago on Google
    Lovely restaurant, great views. However when 2 people in our group did not order drinks, the waitress complained loudly to her colleague that 'THEY'RE NOT ORDERING ANY DRINKS'. She then told the other waitress to take our table. A very rude, loud and unprofessional waitress. The second waitress was respectful thankfully. Otherwise a great restaurant. Would have loved to give 5 stars.
