Cosecha Restaurant — Restaurant in Drakenstein Local Municipality

Beautiful setting! It's unfortunate that our waiter Andrew was not very attentive or professional. We had to ask for salt and pepper twice during which time our food got cold. We received a coke instead of a coke zero clearly because of lack of interest and 0 listening skills. Our questions were answered with 'ya" or "na" and overall it was a disappointing service experience. Not once was our wine poured or empty tins removed from the table.

So nearly perfect! Lovely setting and service and the menu is excellent. We loved the guacamole which is made at the table for you. We shared some starters. The stuffed jalapenos were delicious but the croquettas completely lacked salt. The same was true of the black bean and feta dip. The feta strangely tasted of nothing and the beans had no seasoning. Once we added salt it was delicious. The main courses were more successful. The jalapeno black bean salad was delicious and my daughter's burrito was delicious too (and huge!!) . Nice drinks selection too if you didn't want wine. We visited having booked lunch to coincide with our arrival on the wine tram and in our two hour stay also had time for a small...
