Commonly known simply as "The Spur," this South African chain of steakhouse restaurants is definitely to be recommended. The food, which concentrates on American and Tex-Mex-style steaks and burgers, is well prepared, well presented, and amazingly well priced: per head, you'll pay around $5 to $6. And you won't go away hungry!

A few menu items:
Salad Bar
Steaks 6-18ozs. (150-500g)
Spare Ribs
Tex Mex: fajitas, enchiladas and quesadillas
Kiddies Menu

The branch at the V&A is especially nice because you have the option of eating outside on a wide balcony with stunning views across the harbor to Table Mountain. At night this is a stunning experience.

This is a great family steakhouse that offers great quality for a great value. There are beautiful steak dishes as well as many seafood and vegetarian dishes to choose from. This is a chain of restaurants located throughout South Africa.

The Spur is a Cape Town chain with a great waterfront location on the upper deck of the Victorian Wharf mall. The restaurant offers horseshoe-shaped booths and normal tables with a western flair, along with a great view of the waterfront--especially from the outdoor picnic tables at night.

The fare is Tex-Mex which seems sort of strange being over 10,000 km from Mexico but with cheesy names such as "Eeta-fajita" how can you resist? The quality, being on par with chain restaurants in the US like Chili's or Carlos O'Kelly's makes The Spur an easy choice if you are looking for a sit down dinner without too many confusing choices. The dessert selection is quite extensive as well, with the recommendation from my friends being the large brownie a la mode.

Although The Spur was busy the Sunday night we ate there, we didn't have to wait for a table (even though we had a large group) because they have quite extensive seating if you are willing to sit indoors. The wait staff was very helpful although a bit busy and therefore less attentive.

The Spur also serves as a good meeting place because it is very near the waterfront amphitheater; an outdoor amphitheater that is marked on tourist waterfront maps as a convenient and safe place to meet up with your friends in the evening. The Spur is also a convenient three minute walk from the hotel for Table Bay residents and 10 minutes for guests of the cheaper Breakwater Lodge.

The Spur restaurant is great value for your money, It's a very child-friendly steak-house restaurant. The fillet steak, salad bar, and Don Pedro is the best I've ever tasted. There are a chain of restaurants all over the country. They're affordable and great value for your money. If you're travelling with children this should be your first choice
