Why it’s worth it

A Camps Bay institution since 1998, Codfather seats you and walks you past the day's fresh fish and shellfish, with staff explaining each. You pay for seafood by weight rather than a set dish price. The dining room is busy, there is a quieter wine cellar lined with thousands of bottles, and an open fire for winter evenings.
