Reviews Summary

Blue Kiwi garners praise for its consistently delicious and fresh plant-based offerings, particularly its innovative sushi. Diners appreciate the friendly service and welcoming atmosphere, with many highlighting the vibrant flavors and health-conscious options. However, some reviews point to inconsistencies in portion sizes and value for money, with one reviewer expressing disappointment with a specific dish's chicken portion and avocado freshness.

"After a morning of penguin watching and sight seeing in the hot summer sun, this was a great spot to grab lunch on our way back to Cape Town. We were a bit skeptical about the location as we noticed that the building from the main road looked extremely run down, however once we drove in - the shopping mall is actually quite pleasant and blue kiwi was right at the entrance, very easy to spot.

Our waiter was friendly and attentive, we were seated right away and had our drinks and food without a long wait. I had an iced coffee, it was unsweetened but refreshing nonetheless and for food I had the blue kiwi pokebowl - which I extremely enjoyed, it was delicious with fresh ingredients.

I like that there was a health conscious and vegetarian friendly restaurant out in Simons town. The options near boulders beach doesn’t really cater for vegetarians sadly."

"Great and delicious food.
The mussels were awesome with a superb sauce.
Took the incredible crunchies on take away, it’s a must.
The classic burger was so good.
Arnold took great care of us and was so friendly.
Highly recommended."

"I love this place. It is clean and comfortable. The food and drink is excellent and they welcome your well behaved dog with a bowl of water. The service is good with a friendly vibe. The food is mostly healthy and the mango juice is real."
