9th Avenue Waterside is a fine-dining restaurant located in the Durban yacht mole, off the city's picturesque Esplanade. Every feature of the establishment defines its character - from its location in the harbor, to the innovative design and menu and ultimately, to the exceptional dining experience. The intimate setting is complimented by the warmth of the inspired front-of-house team and the kitchen brigade, led by Head Chef, Theodorus Chiloane. Our mission is to inspire people to enjoy and appreciate food and dining, in a new way - from the communities we support producing sustainably farmed food and beverages, to the professionalism and knowledge of our staff, service and hospitality. The upstairs Cocktail Lounge provide the ideal space to de-stress after a busy day, meet with friends or business colleagues or host a private function. 9th Avenue Waterside also offers a variety of spaces for weddings, engagements, business events, product launches and special calendar days. We look forward to welcoming you soon.

    Beautiful aesthetic, relaxing ambiance, amazing food and the live music was a cherry on top. Thoroughly enjoyed 9th Avenue.

    “Delicious food, but the atmosphere and service fell short. The quality of the dishes was excellent, but our table felt very cramped and lacked any sense of privacy. Additionally, the service felt a bit inattentive throughout the night. I’d recommend it for the food, but I hope they consider spacing out the tables more in the future."
