Situated on Somerset West’s gorgeous Lourensford Wine Estate, Millhouse Kitchen is a fine dining institution offering a delightful menu of gourmet burgers, thick-based pizzas, and pasta and pizzas with Italian influences. With a lovely outdoor seating area that looks out over the estate’s magnificent gardens and statues, the atmosphere is laid back and welcoming.
The open kitchen lets guests observe as their food is produced, and the interior decor is stylish and modern. Main courses at Millhouse Kitchen cost between R150 and R250, while pasta and pizza dishes start at about R100. A selection of wines, including a River Garden Cab-Merlot and a Sauvignon Blanc from the Lourensford Estate, are also available at the institution, along with soft drinks, cocktails, and wine.
The beef burger at Millhouse Kitchen is one of the restaurant’s best dishes; it’s well-cooked and flavorful. Both the Caesar salad and the calamari appetizer are highly recommended. The bacon, avocado, and feta pizza is a crowd favorite for those in the mood for pizza.
Millhouse Kitchen is known for its superb food, but it’s also well-located, offering breathtaking views of the neighboring vineyards and mountains. This restaurant has something for everyone, whether you’re planning a fun family adventure or a romantic evening for two.
