OPEN NOW!   Close at 22:00
O Pescador restaurant is situated at the Waterfront Knysna Quays, shop no 20 first floor between Ocean Basket and Spur. Established for 28 years. We are open for lunch and dinner 7 days a week. We accommodate small and large groups. We have the freshest fish caught daily. We offer prawns, crayfish and oysters. Our variety of steak and chicken dishes is popular among both local residents and tourists. A combination of hard work, excellent food and good service have paid dividends for owners Mannie. Lodete and Sean. Aside from the many local residents who are regular clientele, there are a growing number of tourists who return time and again to savour the traditional Portuguese fare.

    We found a table in the terrace with a nice view of the harbor. We ordered calamari and prawns with Chardonay wine. All was good. Some delay to get desserts. Price in the average.

    The food was reasonable and the servers very friendly. One of our party had crab curry that was tasty, but hard work as it was in the shell. Overall this place is worth a visit.
