About Bel Punto

Bel Punto, in Umdloti, has successfully combined the appeal of breath-taking vistas with an air of sophistication, along with the laid-back lifestyle of the glorious Mediterranean.

Bel Punto has a large indoor dining room, which is light and airy with plenty of room for entertaining in style. There is also a spacious outdoor area, where diners can smell the fresh sea breeze while they drink in the views of the Indian Ocean at their leisure.

This restaurant is run by an Italian family who have infused every dish with their real passion for good food and a welcoming ambience. Their specialities include a couple of Italian favourites, as well as seafood, poultry and game. Starters comprise oysters, calamari, steamed mussels, prawn skewers, butternut cappuccino (butternut soup with a delightful chive froth), stuffed cherry tomatoes, and grilled snails.

Main courses include delicious grilled langoustines, roasted crayfish, stuffed calamari, grilled baby chicken, beef fillet done in a number of ways, grilled and wood-fired quail, and a number of vegetarian options. Of course, there are also a wide array of pizzas, pastas and risottos from which to choose, for those that love authentic Italian cuisine. Decadent desserts are on offer. Look forward to espresso crème brulée, cassata, sorbets, chocolate mousse and Italian kisses.

There are also platters for two or more folk to share, as well as combo options. The comprehensive cocktail menu is made up of sweet, sophisticated, big, small and traditional options. Whether you are visiting for pre-dinner drinks, a glass of wine after work, or a night out on the town, Bel Punto has the ideal refreshments.

These popular flavours, coupled with friendly and efficient service, have made Bel Punto a favourite spot amongst locals and visitors alike. As a result, advance bookings are essential.
