Club Kloof

Club Kloof is a Cape Town restaurant serving modern European small plates at a $$ price level. The practical details are direct: Head Chef Shayne Schutte leads the kitchen, the dress code is smart casual, the restaurant opens Tuesday to Sunday for lunch from 12:00, with dinner from 18:00 Tuesday to Saturday. Monday is closed, Sunday is lunch only from 12:00 to 18:00.

The best fit is a meal where the table wants to share several dishes. The confirmed signatures give a useful starting point: Bianco pizzette, sourdough pizzettes, roasted and smashed baby potatoes, signature salads. Keep the plan simple and choose lunch or dinner according to the service times.

Order around the pizzettes and let the table share

The clearest ordering strategy is to build the meal around the confirmed small-plate strengths. Start with sourdough pizzettes or the Bianco pizzette, then add roasted and smashed baby potatoes and signature salads so the table gets a balanced spread. Because the cuisine is listed as modern European small plates, Club Kloof works best as a sharing meal rather than as a one-dish-per-person plan.

Timing is also part of the decision. Lunch is available from 12:00 Tuesday to Sunday, while dinner starts from 18:00 Tuesday to Saturday. Sunday is lunch only, from 12:00 to 18:00, Monday is closed. Those hours make the restaurant suitable for either a daytime meal or a dinner plan during the main Tuesday-to-Saturday service window.

Smart casual planning at a $$ price level

The dress code is smart casual, which gives a clear signal for planning: Club Kloof is polished enough for a considered Cape Town meal without requiring formal dress. At $$, it sits in a moderate price bracket, so the value depends on ordering a spread that suits the small-plates format.

For a first visit, focus on the confirmed signatures and the service time that fits your group. Club Kloof makes the most sense for diners who want modern European small plates in Cape Town, led by Head Chef Shayne Schutte, with dishes that can be shared across the table.
