Location and Setting
Da Vincenzo Restaurant is situated at 29 Montrose Rd, Barbeque Downs, Kyalami, in Johannesburg.
From the gardens of the restaurant, you get a great view of The Castle, which sits up on a hill and overlooks Kyalami racetrack.
You can view a map here (Google Maps) or here (PDF).
For the kids...First off, some history.
Da Vincenzo was recently rebuilt, after a fire which all but destroyed the amazing venue.
Thankfully, business is booming again, and the newly rebuilt restaurant now features a kiddies play area, a lovely garden, and even a small aviary complete with white doves freely flying in and out.
The combination of swings, slides, open space to run around, and great food all adds up to contented kiddies :)
Speaking of great food, on our last visit we had 5 kids in our group, and they all loved the food that was served - pizza, pastas, juice, and ice cream for dessert.
For the adults...
To put it plainly, the food at Da Vincenzo is simply fantastic.
Vincenzo himself (the owner), sees to all the dishes personally, and no meal leaves the kitchen without getting past him.
This all adds up to a fantastic culinary experience - from the antipasti (starters), to pizza, pasta and meat dishes, to desserts and coffees.
There is also plenty of space if it's a large group that you need to feed - 3 exclusive venues are available for hire.

Anything else?
There are changing facilities for babies, and the toilets are clean and well-maintained.
Please note that children must be supervised by an adult at all times.
It is also probably a good idea to book a table in advance on weekends and public holidays.
