Chef Jamie says the the Grillroom & Sushi Bar caters for all palates.

Firstly, from the Mibrasa oven comes some scrumptious dishes for meat lovers. Lemon and Thyme Roasted Baby Spatchcock, Crispy Pork Belly and good old T-Bone awaits. Then, there is some tender Local Wagyu beef and 41-day dry-aged Jersey beef from KZN for those extra special occasions.

Furthermore, for vegetarians, the menu delivers carefully chosen favourites, made to perfection. From Quinoa Salad to Creamy Risotto with Shiitake Mushroom, Asparagus & Parmesan to Mushroom and Camembert for something lighter.

In addition, the Grillroom & Sushi Bar offers a wide variety of fresh Maki Rolls, Nigiri and Sashimi with choices for vegetarians. The restaurant also offers Soya-infused Salmon, Tuna Tartare, Calamari and Grilled Prawns.

Lastly, the dessert menu has a cheese board selection with chutney and relishes for those with a savoury preference. For the sweet-toothed, the choice of summer surprise Mille Feuillet, Lemon Meringue Tart or the Black Forest Brownie will also be a delight.

Design and ambience

The 250-seater restaurant was designed to offer different experiences for various clientele and will ensure your experience is memorable, no matter the occasion.

There are upstairs and downstairs spaces, outside covered patio areas and the relaxed lounge area which provides an ambient space to have a pre-dinner drink or end the evening off with a nightcap.

A favourite, of course, is the wine room. It was designed to make you feel as if you are in a private tasting room at a wine farm in the heart of the Cape.

Above all, the warm and inviting colours throughout the restaurant and natural elements like the stone columns and wood cladding add a natural warmth and elegance to the restaurant.
