Monika and I decided to go to La Pineta in Stellenbosch for June's pizza evening. As we got there (monday evening) we noticed that the entire parking lot as well as restaurant was dark and we got the feeling that they were closed. After driving around in the dodgy woods for a while, we drove back to the entrance just to see the sign saying that they're only open Wednesday through Sundays. Great. Plan B.
So we decided to go to Jimmy The Fish. Not your obvious choice for pizza, but we've been there before and the pizzas looked pretty decent. We got a nice seet next to a fish tank (#nemoanddorie) and as we started to relax a helpful waiter appeared who started telling us about the specials. We started off with Sushi as a started while scanning through the pizza menu with its very eccentric range of pizza names - all pirate themed! I decided to go for the "Above Board"which has Kesler Strips, jalapeno, garlic, avo, sweet mild mustard sauce and caramalized onions on it, while Monika went for the S.O.S: Mussels, prawn tail, calamary, sundried tamato, crab sticks and mushrooms.
As with everything else on the menu, it was of a high standard and very delicious! Decently priced, the variety of toppings on the various pizzas are very wide and a definite must for those who aren't in the mood for the traditional seafood options when visiting a seafood restaurant.
Scoring
| Pizza | : | 7.5 / 10 |
| Ambiance | : | 8 / 10 |
| Service | : | 8 / 10 |
Overall we award them a score of 8 out of 10. Although they aren't the gourmet styled pizza place some would prefer, they do offer good food, a good vibe and good service well within the average persons price range. So overall a good night. :)
