I had a lovely experience at Elvis 60s Diner, from the music and service to the food. I wish I could post pictures on this but doesn't to be allowing for. Definately worth a visit everyone.

Adore the whole vibe, very cool theme. Something different for a change, yet iconic! AMAZING food, portions super generous! We will definitely be going often!

We had such a great experience at the Elvis 60s Diner! From my husband’s burger to my pasta, everything was absolutely fresh and full of flavor. You could tell the ingredients were high quality and cooked with care. My pasta was not only delicious but came in a very generous portion — big enough to feed both my toddler and I, with leftovers to spare! I actually had to force myself to stop eating because it was just so well made and tasty. The service was friendly and efficient, and the whole place had a fun, nostalgic vibe. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for portion size and service. We’ll definitely be back!

Can highly recommend Elvis 60's Diner in Gordon's Bay. Awesome Sunday lunch with the most amazing pumpkin fritters I've even had. Oxtail in red wine sauce for mains with Apple pudding for dessert. All for just R135 each. (Starter was Chicken Trinchado) Brilliant!

I love me some fried bacon & bananas. The golden oldies on the jukebox made me want to stay for lunch, but the value for money kept me full till dinner… Great vibe and service. Please support our locals!

This Diner restaurant is an extraordinary place for everyone to experience. The Elvis & Vintage Car Collections are worth viewing and reminiscing about. The Coffee & breakfast is so good that you will definitely want to see more of the Collections and experience Lunch & Dinner as well. The food prices are good and the food is excellent. The menu is still in early stages but is also fair, yet ever improving. Definitely a great place to relax and chill out. An Awesome Restaurant everyone can enjoy and return again. Very knowledgeable collector,Sampiè always ready to share lifetime Collector experience.

Parking is a bit of a challenge but this gem is a worthwhile visit. The 60's theme with it's nostalgic backdrop creates a dinner and lunch environment. The decor was further complimented with apt live music. The food was delicious and tasty. The only critique was that it was a fixed menu on the day of our visit. Although it did not bother us it might be a problem with people with specific dietary requirements.
