Valentine’s Day dining doesn’t have to be predictable — and at Cassia Restaurant, it certainly isn’t.
Nestled on the lush grounds of Nitida Wine Farm, Cassia is inviting couples to slow down, sip something celebratory, and indulge in a thoughtfully curated Valentine’s Day dinner designed for connection, conversation and shared delight.
From the moment guests arrive, romance is gently set in motion with a welcome drink, followed by a multi-course menu that balances elegance with playfulness. Think beautifully plated dishes, seasonal ingredients, and flavour combinations that feel indulgent without being over the top — exactly what a memorable Valentine’s evening should be.
- The journey begins with freshly baked rosemary and red onion focaccia, leading into an amuse-bouche that hints at the kitchen’s creative flair.
- Starters offer a choice between a warming chorizo and mussel pasta or a vibrant heirloom tomato and beetroot salad, before a refreshing rosé MCC and strawberry sorbet resets the palate.
- Mains continue the love story with options ranging from grilled beef fillet with béarnaise and potato fondant, to a refined salmon Wellington, and a beautifully considered vegan ravioli that proves plant-based can still feel utterly luxurious.
- And just when guests think they couldn’t possibly fit in dessert, Cassia delivers the grand finale: a decadent dessert platter for two, made for sharing and stealing bites across the table.
At R740 per person, this Valentine’s Day dinner offers exceptional value for a full evening of fine dining, atmosphere and attention to detail. Dinner is served from 17h30 on Friday, 14 February 2026, with limited availability — because the best love stories are always worth booking ahead.
For those looking to celebrate love with great food, good wine and zero pressure, Cassia Restaurant at Nitida is quietly raising the bar this Valentine’s Day.
