When Valentine’s Day calls for good food, warm lighting and just the right amount of indulgence, De Vier Restaurant answers beautifully.
This much-loved Stellenbosch spot is setting the table for a Valentine’s Day dinner that’s equal parts elegant, comforting and effortlessly romantic.
Taking place on Saturday, 14 February, the evening begins on a deliciously inviting note: a glass of Cap Classique on arrival, paired with baked camembert, slow-roasted tomatoes and grilled sourdough. It’s the kind of start that instantly sets the mood—relaxed, indulgent and made for sharing.
- From there, guests are treated to a thoughtfully curated two-course set menu, offering flexibility without losing that special-occasion sparkle. Starters include hoisin-fried calamari or grilled aubergine with herbed mushrooms and slow-roasted tomatoes, while mains range from a perfectly cooked 250g Chalmar beef sirloin with a choice of classic sauces to a comforting crispy chicken and lemon risotto, with vegetarian options thoughtfully catered for.
- Dessert, of course, is non-negotiable on Valentine’s Day. Diners can choose between a nostalgic chocolate sponge pudding with vanilla ice cream or a playful deconstructed cheesecake—both designed to end the evening on a sweet high.
Priced at R695 per person, the Valentine’s Day dinner at De Vier strikes that sweet spot between refined and approachable. Add in the softly glowing dining room, attentive service and the unmistakable charm of Stellenbosch, and you have all the ingredients for a night worth remembering. Bookings are essential, and tables are expected to fill quickly—because nothing says romance quite like great food shared in good company.
