  • Restaurants:

    • Lush
      Lush is an upmarket, glitzy restaurant, situated on the water’s edge with its own jetty. The flamboyant décor lives up to its name - ruby hues, velvet textures, silver candelabras, baroque accessories, including mirrors, mosaics, crystal chandeliers, leather studded walls, suede and vinyl finishes and fibre-optic lights, create a dramatic and seductive background for the chef's exciting menu.
      Booking is recommended. Tel 044 382 7196

    • Sirocco
      The restaurant is housed in a dramatic double-storey building, with exposed red brick and corrugated iron creating interesting interior spaces through the use of curved walls and large expanses of glass that maximise the stunning views across the lagoon to the Heads. German born, executive chef Michael Hebel’s menu is a contemporary but unpretentious mélange of Mediterranean influences with a touch of the East. Sirocco also has an extensive cocktail menu. Tel 044 382 6730 ext 8

    • Knysna Oyster Company
      The Oyster is probably Knysna's favourite delicacy and its best-known export. No visit to South Africa's Favourite Town would be complete without a plateful of them - and it is also an important part of the economy of the Knysna Lagoon. The Oyster Company is situated on Thesen Islands. Tours are offered and in the shop fresh Oysters, frozen seafood and others can be purchased. The restaurant is specializing in seafood, oysters and other dishes. Don’t miss this place on your stay in the Garden Route. Tel +27 44 382 6941
