Trattoria Maranello, Cape Town South Africa

You eat at Trattoria Maranello on Melkbosstrand beach, where the Atlantic is close enough to hear from the table. The kitchen serves Italian dishes — pastas, wood-fired pizzas, veal shank — with a wine list to match. The dining room has an open-air conservatory and a cocktail deck above the beach, where you can watch the sunset over the water.

The restaurant is named for Ferrari’s hometown, and the walls hold a collection of Ferrari memorabilia. At the back, a bar serves coffee and beer to regulars who come for both. The kitchen offers vegan and lactose-free options, including goat’s gouda and vegan mozzarella.

Formula 1 races play on the big screen during the season, and sunset brings a drinks special: order two, get the third free. The beach road outside is busy in summer, but the sea breeze keeps the air moving. Book by phone; they do not take online reservations.
