Welcome to Mama Cucina! Our restaurant in Riebeek Kasteel is a place where you can spend an hour or a day passing the time, enjoying the happy atmosphere and great service. Our food is always fresh, innovative and firmly grounded in the Italian Mediterranean tradition! We serve it up with lashings of soul and a great little wine list featuring wines from the valley and special selections from further afield. We hope you enjoy your visit!
