The Live Bait Restaurant provides, some of the best views of Muizenberg while you enjoy some good food. Live bait provides a variety of fish and seafood dishes, combos and has some good specials like order two mains and kids eat for free or 25% off combos. However if you don't feel.like seafood then this is not the place for you.

Great food and fantastic service from Leslie! All round a lovely experience. Will be back when I am in Cape Town again.
Great views from this restaurant situated on the first floor and overlooking Muizenberg beach. The menu is geared for seafood with few vegetation options. Kids menu offers some decent options. There is an area where kids can sit on bean bags and draw with chalk on the wall. Beer on tap, a decent wine list and fresh fish & sushi made for a great lunch out.
Live Bait has lovely decor and relaxing background music with a spectacular view. It's open and light and airy. Sadly for me there was no snoek on the menu, so I settled for hake and chips (R89) and was pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed the batter which was crisp and golden. Everything on the menu looks great. There's a lovely variety of dishes to suit all tastes, including curry, pasta and sushi, and the prices are fair. There was live entertainment when I happened to visit (the wonderful artist Ezra Lingeveldt). The easy-listening jazz added to the chilled out atmosphere. Whether you're on a date, catching up with mates or celebrating a special occasion, Live Bait won't disappoint.
We stumbled upon this restaurant while trying to find somewhere different to eat dinner. Walked up the stairs, the restaurant is really lovely inside, great decor. The menu is really good with lots of choices for fish and seafood. Unfortunately, the service is really not good. Our waiter did not know much about the menu, kept bringing the wrong items, poured soda into my gin instead of tonic. Mixed up our food order. Brought the wrong dessert. There was also not much communication between staff members. Such a shame because the restaurant has lots of potential with great views and the food is really good too. Prices are on the higher end of the scale.
Location is everything for this restaurant, with out the beautiful settings I would give this a lower rating. The food is average food trying to be more. We got a seat right next to the window, allowing us to look out at the waves, very beautiful.(the window was not clean, not their fault being right on the sea). The waitress was friendly and informative, giving us all specials of the day. (No comments on the sushi as this was not tasted) We went with 2 small children, they ordered from the children’s menu. This food was disappointing to say the least. They ordered calamari and chips. The chips were nice while the calamari was spiced in a weird way, this meant the children did not even get half way through their meal... before refusing to eat the rest as is was too complicated for their palate. This is not a child friendly restaurant. This is okay but then don’t have a children’s menu. I was sad to hear that a sea food restaurant does not have tata sauce, mainly when serving children calamari or fish. My girlfriend and I had the calamari and chips, this was fried in a pan with many spices and herbs.... I was not a huge fan of the herbs and the way this was put together. The calamari however was cooked perfectly. My father had the mussels and though he said that were well cooked and delicious there was too little bread, which was solved when he asked for more and the friendly waitress brought some to us. This was a good experience however not the best one I have had, with the location of this restaurant a part of me expected more. The view was beautiful. The food was well cooked. The staff was friendly. But sadly that is not all it takes to make this a 5 star restaurant.
Fresh delicious food. Short waiting times from ordering your food and getting it on your table. This restaurant also offers great views of the beach. Love the interior design as well.
Beautiful view. Good service. Good food
