Blowfish Restaurant sits on Bloubergstrand beachfront, where you eat seafood with Table Mountain framed in the window. The kitchen serves sushi at the counter and grilled fish at the tables, with the Atlantic Ocean and mountain as backdrop. It is part of Dolphin Beach Hotel, which means some guests walk down from rooms upstairs.

The dining room looks northwest across the bay toward Table Mountain, which is why sunset brings guests to the windows. The menu leans on seafood — sushi, sashimi, grilled line fish — with the kitchen open through the day. Breakfast includes eggs, bacon and pastries for hotel guests and walk-ins.

Weddings sometimes take over the space, with the mountain and beach as natural decoration. The restaurant has been here long enough that some tables have memorized the view.
