French Connection - Franschhoek

First time in a while visiting The French Connection Bistro again. Glad to see all the international visitors. Food was of good quality and variety. Waitress service and communication skills could be improved though. Will definitely revisit soon.

Most restaurants I’ve been to that use paper tablecloths have incredible food and this place lived up to that experience. We had a super tasty dinner here. Especially loved the kudu stroganoff which was bursting with flavour and perfectly tender. The seared tuna special was also delightful, clearly made with high quality tuna. The atmosphere was relaxed and lively with a rustic touch.

What a great experience. Weather was perfect for a Winters day Food was excellent Service was excellent We couldn't find fault with anything Overall amazing experience for a Sunday lunch

Last evening showing a Canadian family member the beauty of our Peninsula, we chanced upon The French Connection and were fortunate to be given a table at short notice. What an amazing restaurant! I was blown away from the delightfully refreshing Pimms and ginger ale to every sumptuous dish that was placed before us. It was impossible to choose 'dish of the day '. Each plate (generous portions) was a beautifully presented feast of aroma and explosion of flavour. The professional and friendly staff add greatly to the general relaxed ambience. In short. Calamari tubes could never taste the same again Will definitely return.

We ate here on consecutive evenings as it was pretty much the only place open after bad s torm damage. I'm so glad they had a generator. Staff were lovely, atmosphere surprisingly upbeat and the food very good. The menu is fairly meat heavy (no surprise given the name) but there are fish, vegetarian and vegan options too. Tempura prawns were especially good as was the fish special.
