VUUR

VUUR An fire cooking experience in the Cape Winelands.

We love fire.

It isn’t a quick process. It’s time, patience, and respect. Fire can’t be rushed, and neither can great food. Every flame, every ember, every moment adds another layer of flavour and another chapter to the story we share around the table.

So what makes the perfect steak?

It starts long before it touches the fire.

Temper. Bring the meat to life.
Flame. Cook with instinct, not timers.
Char. Build flavour through fire, not burn.
Rest. Let patience finish what the flames began.

Simple. Honest. Fire-led.

That’s VUUR

What is it like dining at VUUR?

It’s a place where you feel at home.

A place where you share food, stories and moments with the people around you.

A place where you get closer to the fire, closer to the ingredients, and closer to the way we do things.

We cook in front of you. We share our stories with you. We welcome you into our world.

And somewhere between the fire, the food and the conversation, strangers become friends and a restaurant begins to feel a little more like home.

That is VUUR.

Book your seats now for this winter and warm up with our fire, our warmth and caring service.

The days pass, but VUUR continues to create something special.

No two days are ever the same. The fire changes. The meat changes. The guests around our table change. Every service tells a different story.

What never changes is the essence of VUUR.

A home away from home. A place where the fires keep burning, conversations linger, and every guest is welcomed with genuine care.

Because while the flames may never burn the same way twice, the feeling they create always remains.

Malaika introduces one of our newest desserts.

A decadent sweet creation that isn’t overly sweet — balancing dark chocolate, bright citrus, a touch of salinity, and rich rendered beef fat. Yes, beef fat.

At VUUR, we love exploring the space where fire, meat, and dessert meet. This latest dish is brought to life using the flambadou, allowing us to add layers of caramelisation, smoke, and richness in a way that only fire can.

Unexpected. Thought-provoking. Delicious.

Join us at VUUR and experience the dishes that make dining at VUUR unlike anywhere else!!!

VUUR is not only a place.
It is a feeling.

A true expression of South African hospitality — warm, generous, relaxed, and deeply rooted in fire — can travel anywhere.

To a wine estate.
To a private event.
To an activation.
Even to your own backyard.

Whether you are planning a celebration, a private dinner, a corporate event, or simply want to learn more about the art of fire cooking, we would love to bring the VUUR experience to you.

What makes VUUR different?

It’s the interaction with the team.
The location.
The wildlife moving quietly through the landscape or coming down to drink at the dam.
The wine shared around the table.
The choice between a social dining experience or something deeply private.
The quality of the produce.
The simplicity.
The laughter.
The sense of fun.
The time spent around a table without ever feeling rushed.

There are many things that make VUUR special, but more than anything, it is the care we give, the warm-hearted service, and the way we make people feel that truly sets us apart.

At VUUR, hospitality is not just service — it is connection.

Join us for lunch from Tuesday to Saturday, and dinner on Friday and Saturday, to experience true VUUR hospitality.

Stefan shares what makes VUUR different.

Flavour. Fire. People.

That’s where it starts.

But it’s also the surrounds, the produce, and the relaxed space we create that make it truly special.

A place to slow down. To connect. To just be.

Join us this May and June for the VUUR Experience — where fire warms more than just the plate.

Our love of fire runs through every part of the VUUR experience, not only in our meats and vegetables, but in our desserts too.

Malaika shares more about our Basque-style burnt cheesecake and how we use fire to bring gentle smoke and a touch of salt into the sweeter side of the meal. It is a dessert that carries the same depth, warmth and character that defines everything we do.

A great way to finish a meal!!!

There is something timeless about a glass of red wine shared with a great steak. The marriage of tannin, salt, smoke and deep flavour is one of life’s simplest and most perfect pleasures.

We are incredibly fortunate to call Remhoogte Wine Estate home — a place where a beautiful selection of wines is produced right on our doorstep, each one offering the opportunity to pair beautifully with the meats we cook over fire.

A standout for us is the Remhoogte Vantage Pinotage, crafted from low-yielding bush vines. It brings depth, structure and a bold expression of fruit, with a richness that holds its own against the intensity of fire-cooked meat — a wine that feels both rooted in the land and perfectly at home at the table.

You can either hate Pinotage or you love it. We love this one!!!

We work long hours … some days longer than others but we are fortunate.

We are fortunate to meet amazing diners that comes to our restaurants and connect with them and even connect them to other diners at our social table experience.

We are fortunate to cook amazing produce. Great meats, fish and vegetables that comes from the ocean and land supplied by amazing suppliers.

We are fortunate to work with fire, a medium that is ancient but brings us so much flavour.

So even after all the long days and sometimes being tired we still consider ourselves so lucky to do what we love and share this with our diners.

Video 2 – VUUR Dining Areas: VUUR Goose Island | Social Table Experience

VUUR Goose Island is our island restaurant — a space you reach by crossing a bridge, stepping into a dedicated braai room surrounded by water. Whether seated inside or out on the deck, you’re immersed in beautiful, uninterrupted views.

The Social Table is our shared dining experience, where guests come together to enjoy a multi-course, fire-cooked menu paired with wines from Remhoogte Wine Estate. From your seat, you’ll have a direct view of the hearth — the heart of what we do.

This experience is interactive and immersive. You’re invited to stand, engage with the chefs as they cook, and hear the stories behind each dish as it’s prepared.

It’s about connection. It’s about great food and great wine. And most of all, it’s about enjoying the VUUR experience together.

It is a celebration of connection, of fire, of flavour experienced in their most elemental form.
