This legendary exclusive revolving restaurant was officially opened in February 1973. The Roma was born from a concept pioneered by Bartholoeo Ribero, Turi and Gino Leopardi. Now proudly owned by the Reelin Group and managed by the Leopardi brothers. We are proud to say that we are the only genuine revolving restaurant in the southern hemisphere and the 3rd of its kind in the world. Roma Revolving Restaurant also boasts the unique feature, as two others do, of a revolving window and floor area! The restaurant is situated on the 32nd Level of the John Ross House overlooking the whole of Durban and surrounding areas with excellent sea and bay views.

    Had a wonderful experience at Roma Revolving Restaurant! The food and atmosphere were amazing, but the real highlight was our waitress, Smah. She serves with such warmth and a genuine smile — a true example of someone who loves what she does. If you ever visit Roma, be sure to look out for Smah — she’ll make your dining experience even more special!
