This has to be one of my favorite dining experiences! Chef Julia is so kind and brings everyone into the lower level of her home to serve incredible, thoughtful dishes around a communal table. Here you’ll be able to try multiple local wines which have dishes created to pair perfectly with them. You’ll also be able to chat with others from South Africa and all around the world while you enjoy the food. Even if you just went and ate her unbelievable bread, you’d be happy. I can’t wait to book it again, as the menu changes frequently as things go in and out of season.

Amazing hospitality by Julia. The concept is really great, with changing menu and a great atmosphere. 5 courses including wine pairing. The food was really creative and delicious - some of the best we had in Capetown and in general. The evening lasted for about 4.5-5 hours so take into consideration!

My group did a dinner here and it was amazing. 5 courses each with generous wine pairings. Your group will leave well-fed with some *very* unique dishes, and flavors you’ve never tasted before or didn’t think went together.

Thank you Julia for such a wonderful evening! From start to finish (and I had not realised how late it was until we got back to our hotel!), you were a wonderful chef and host.Your welcome was warm, the good served was exquisite, and the company of strangers was such fun!All of the dishes, with local ingredients, eloquently described, were presented beautifully, and with fantastic small batch wines to accompany them. Actually it was the food that accompanied the wine, but that’s a story for Julia to tell!This was a really enjoyable dining experience and highly recommended. Thank you!

We spent an amazing evening at Reverie - Julia’s hosting, wine pairing and cuisine were fab. We cannot recommend this place enough. The conversation with other guests and the whole set up and ambience made it a memorable evening.

We had the most amazing time at Julia’s place as a group of 18 people. She and her team created a phenomenal food experience. From the welcome drink in the backyard, to all the lovely food and wine pairings, explanations..so much thoughtfulness that went into it. Totally loved the concept of all ingredients being locally sourced!!We were very lucky to have had Rob from Remhoogte Wine Estate there as well, which added another layer to the evening learning about the whole process and heritage behind each wine.It felt like a dinner at a friends place, all of us sitting in the living room, getting up chatting to each other between courses. Though it is a fine dining experience it doesn’t come with the stiffness of it. Julia is a fantastic host, that adds a lot of warmth and kindness to the place and we all felt very much at home.Can’t wait to be back ❤️

Wow! This has been one of my favourite dining experiences in all of my travels. Chef Julia and her team are extraordinary and great all diners as though they are friends and family. From the moment that you enter you are greeted by the chef and welcomed with a glass of wine. You then mingle with all of your fellow diners while the finishing touches are prepared. The meal itself is served family style and the chef served each course explaining the dish and the wine pairing. As a group we chose to have diners move around so that you could talk to new people. The food was absolutely delicious and the wine paired perfectly with each course. I celebrated my birthday and the group all sang happy birthday to me! All in all, I had an amazing and memorable experience and I cannot wait to visit again! Many thanks to Reverie Social Table!

WOW I am absolutely blown away by this experience and after trying all of the fine dining experiences in Cape Town, they all kind of blend together but Julia’s cooking is something that I will always remember.It’s unique and refreshing to see a chef with so much talent, compassion, and creativity take on the challenge of creating something totally outside the box and make dinner clubs accessible. Especially after the years we’ve had, we could all use an excuse to start talking to people again.We started the dinner with a wine hour in Julia’s backyard. It’s easy to forget that she actually lives above the kitchen so this is her home!The first course was the line fish, which was the best bite of fish I’ve had in Cape Town, no joke. Julia curates the menu each week with whatever is available through the local farms she sources her produce from. She also comes out and explains each course and the wine pairings, which is a much better experience than at any restaurant because you’re actually talking to the chef!Her staff work in the kitchen connected to the dining area, which you walk through to access the bathroom, so you can see all of the cooking in action.Not only was the food interesting, but the wine pairings were spectacular. We took photos of each wine because we enjoyed them so much- we went to La Colombe the next night and one of the wine pairings was the same as Julia’s! Not sure if I’m allowed to say this but La Colombe is overrated and Reverie is, if anything, underrated and you need to book a seat ASAP!
