Ingredients from our indigenous garden invite diners to experience flavours unique to the Cape - the same ingredients once enjoyed by our earliest ancestors. Nutrient-rich and abundant, these plants are believed to have supported the cognitive development of early Homo sapiens. A taste of ancient terroir, reimagined for today.

What a lovely way to spend a day.
At beyond Restaurant, we experienced some of the best fine dining dishes you’ll find in the Western Cape.
Unpretentious, uncomplicated, elegant — the food at beyond is designed to celebrate the beauty of the ingredients without unnecessary embellishment.
Led by Executive Chef Sebastian Stehr, the menu takes you on a culinary journey, with experimental combinations that come together beautifully, each plate thoughtful, refined, and full of flavour.
Set among the vineyards of Buitenverwachting, it’s a space that invites you to slow down, settle in, and enjoy the view.

Flavouring the fire.
Fresh herbs are placed directly onto hot coals, releasing essential oils into the heat. Smoke carries their character into the food, subtly shaping flavour through the flame.

Krummelpap with amasi labneh and kumquat atchar, alongside abalone and foraged periwinkles, finished with African mint.
Ingredients that have existed on this coastline, in this soil, and in the food memories of South Africans for generations - brought together in a single dish.
Foraged by hand along the South African coast at low tide, our sea lettuce moves from rock to braai - touched by open flame, then slowly simmered until tender.
Blended into a seaweed broth, it captures the wild, coastal character of where it was found.
A reminder that some of the most extraordinary ingredients in South African cooking have been growing here all along.

Cape Malay-style mussels.
Fresh mussels brought to life with warm, aromatic spices, balanced by subtle sweetness and acidity. The result is layered and fragrant rather than fiery, with a depth shaped by slow cooking and uniquely South African flavours.

At Beyond, we cook with the ancient flavours of the Cape coastline.
Our indigenous garden is more than a source of ingredients - it’s where coastal botanicals are grown, connecting us to the origins of flavour and the landscape they come from.

Tuna loin with hanging wrack seaweed, sunrose, and dune spinach foraged from our coast, paired with seasoned rice, ginger mayo, and a citrus dressing.
