Food Scene

Great place for sundowners or dinner. You can take the elevator DOWN to the pool (it's on the cliffside). If it's not too full, they allow non-guests to order drinks/food. Just act like you belong :)

Hidden gem a few blocks away. A tiny and adorable restaurant tucked away in an old house. Fine dining experience and a local secret.

Amazing place to watch the sun set. You can also eat inside at the restaurant (which had a different menu than the balcony). Try the springbok! Also have a Sunday jazz brunch.
