    A place a bit further from Cape Town, but we thought it was definitely worth a share! We had the most wonderful experience at the @mistymountainsestate just outside of Hermanus. We stayed in one of their self catering cottages and decided to get some lunch at the restaurant on the farm, and we were so pleasantly impressed! If you are looking for the perfect, thin crust pizza look no further. The pizzas were absolutely delicious, the service even better, the drinks cold and the fire place nice and warm. They also have their own range of gin, wine and mcc to taste and try! We would definitely recommend them as a stop for your next trip to Hermanus or Stanford!

    Drove past and decided to turn around to try their wine - ended up having a light lunch next to the fire place. Pleasant and individual interactive service from chef to wine maker. Also gin and beer made on site. Good Portuguese inspired food, the BEST red wine from the area, and well priced. We loved it and took some home. A must stop for wine and food lovers.

    Had a great pizza here...while sitting on the couch in front of the fire. the pizza had a super thin base with lots of toppings! Really awesome! I opted for the gin tasting and to my surprise enjoyed the pepperdew infused gin the most. Worth a visit!!

    We have been to Misty Mountains a few times and we love their pizza and we always do the gin tasting. They make amazing gin! We go there over and over and everytime it is wonderful.

    Wether you love Gin, Wine or Art, Misty Mountain Estate is a superb getaway on the R43 home to Cape Town or just for a nice relaxed Sunday Lunch close to the vineyards and Mountains. The place is beautiful and clean. The food is great and good service! I would’ve just love nice soft music on the background to silent out the noise of the cars passing by on the R43, but the atmosphere is relaxed and calm with or without music! Highly recommended

    On arrival, everyone was very nice and welcoming. I had 2 children with me, so I wanted to be seated near the play area. After I requested it, they'd brought our table out so we could be near the kids. We ordered a beer tasting first as this was to get things started off, and it was good. Just as we thought things can’t get any better, we ordered the Gin tasting. Dragonfly; Firefly and everything in between. I will never forget you. What a lovely taste. I myself isn't usually a Gin drinker, I was sold on their amazing aray of Gin. If I have the time when passing again, I am stopping there 80% just to taste their Gin again. Their pizza can put a lot of franchises to shame. Wood fired pure deliciousness. It's definitely a a to do when passing by. Hope someday I will get invited to do a full tasting of all their wines. Couldn't taste everything still needed to drive.

    Always a favourite. Best thing crust pizza in the Overberg!!! Love the Smelly South African!! The dessert pizza is a must for Nutella lovers 😋. We're pleasantly surprised when we were told they introduced a Portuguese Menu. Do try the Chicken Peri Peri livers - love it and great presentation!! Highly recommended 👌

    The restaurant at Misty Mountains Estate is lovely. A tranquil setting serving Authentic Portuguese dishes. A delicious stop when you drive between Hermanus and Stanford.

    We had a wine tasting with 5 white wines and 1 reg wine for R45 as well as a pizza desert for R60. Good wines and great pizza desert in a very cozy and friendly atmosphere. Friendly host. Will definately visit again.

    Loved the woodfired pizza. Never had a crust so thin 😍 And our dogs could sit with us as they are pet friendly! Will go back to try their gin as well.

    2nd time we've been there and we love it. Great food, friendly staff and a lovely owner. Will most definitely be back and pass the name around to friends and family.

    The staff are incredibly welcoming. Jose (restaurant manager) has crafted a wonderful themed menu from his experience and culture, all meals prepared perfectly even when there's load shedding trying to bring you down. The tasting room has everything you need. Wines straight from the winery, you get an amazing tour and experience from Robert and get to taste award winning wines when done. The entire setting is serene and calming once you're outside overlooking the vineyards.

    Authentic and delicious Portuguese food. This is the place for it if you are looking to experience an exceptional dining experience

    I had to come back to have a glass of the Misty Mountains Ana Mae Sauvignon Blanc. Wild fermented on skins in oak barrels for 9 months. Just superb! Well done, Robert!

    My family and I decided to go for a wine tasting today. Apon arrival we were greeted very friendly. We had a focaccia pizza as well and the service, food and wine was superb! Thank you José for the warm greeting and lovely service at the restaurant. We will definitely be back 😁😁👏👏

    Couldn't do the beer tasting, so that was a but of a bummer... but the pizza more than made up for it, and the beer that we had was also very lekka. Honey blonde if I remember correctly. Staff were also very nice and friendly...

    Fantastic place to stop between hermanus and Stanford, the wine is great and the staff are fantastic. The pizza is well priced for the food you get, even if you feel it's not enough. The desert was fantastic and the presentation was fitting of the dish.

  • 4/5 Michelle K. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice. Staff was friendly and it was an all in all nice experience. We ate there Smelly South African pizza and the combination was great. The flavors blended in perfectly. Just a well rounded meal.

    Stopped at Misty Mountains for a Boxing Day lunch. Our hike before lunch was running late and the staff were very accommodating in letting us move our booking out a bit. Service was very quick. A simple menu and attentive staff. Food was good. We ordered: Regina pizza, Calamari (grilled), nachos and a 1/2 chicken. The pizza was raved about at the table. Misty mountain boldly claimed that they only serve their own booze. That’s so cool. We enjoyed a tasting flight of their gins. The rose water one was our favourite. Will be back and recommend to friends.

    Very Scenic restaurant. Surrounded by Grape vines. The Pizzas are amazing. Nachos are good too. However they didn't have the beer tasting on the day we visited.

  • 4/5 Ellen B. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely experience. Good service. Handicap accessible from the back. Food was slightly pricy and menu is limited, but everything we ate was delicious. The pizza was good. The nachos was expensive for the portion size.

  • 5/5 Taryn W. 1 year ago on Google
    What a wonderful experience. We went for the gin tasting which was wonderful. We had a selection of 4 different gins. The guide was really knowledgeable and informative and took us through the tasting, where after we were able to enjoy the drinks at our leisure. Good portions, for R120 each. We also had the nachos which were so delicious. We sat by the warm fire, ate and drank and were well looked after by the staff. Would recommend the experience.

    Fantastic tasting room with great ambiance. Definitely taste the wine. Apart from being cheap it is really tasty. You can taste Gin too.

  • 5/5 Harry V. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff are friendly, helpful and munificent. Pizzas are top-notch and the wine and beer is excellent, especially when enjoyed on the stoep overlooking the Kleinrivier valley.

  • 5/5 Sharon A. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely awesome, after a disheartening, unfulfilling experience elsewhere, we had complete satisfaction at Misty Mountains Estate. The Management was very accommodating who went the extra mile to satisfy our impromptu visit - (albeit "after hours") to support them.!

    Lovely thin pizzas and luscious nachos. Friendly service!
