About Café Orca
Situated on the beachfront of Melkbosstrand, Café Orca is regarded by locals and visitors as their favourite seafood restaurant in the West Coast area. With its proximity to the sea, boasting views of fishermen hauling in their daily catch, Café Orca sets the scene for an authentic seafood experience!
Whet your appetite with delicious starters such as their Cajun calamari tentacles; peri-peri chicken livers, pan-fried in a spicy tomato salsa or blue ocean mussels in a creamy garlic sauce. The springbok carpaccio and shelled prawns drizzled with Cajun butter, sound like something we’d come back for, again and again.
Mains take centre stage, with decadent seafood favourites such as calamari in lemon butter; grilled West Coast sole or butterflied, grilled queen prawns.
