A passionate restaurant on Cape Town’s Waterfront: Our Story

Marble was initially founded by Gary Kyriacou and David Higgs at the Keyes Art Mile in Rosebank, Johannesburg. Now, Marble Restaurant Cape Town brings the zeal for fire-driven cuisine and local flavours to the Mother City in the Waterfront.

Created to celebrate cooking with fire in all its glory and simplicity, Marble offers flame-inspired cuisine that champions South African culture and flavours. Boasting a grand wood-fired grill imported from Grill Works in Michigan at its heart, Marble is a celebration of the vibrant flavours, colours, and textures brought about with flame cooking.

The concept combines the open-fire trend, seen internationally, with a pinch of true South African flair. We have long been fascinated by what makes South African cuisine unique, and we believe it’s down to being meat and flame enthusiasts. It is the time-worn ritual of cooking on wood fires and gathering with friends, the shared experience in the preparation. And it is not just meat that we celebrate in this way, we boast an array of fresh ingredients all cooked on our perfectly prepared coals including fish, poultry, vegetables and breads.

    Made my reservation way in advance for my sons birthday, asked for a nice table, we just got a table in the middle of the room. Restaurant was crowded with people coming from a rugby match, being loud and intoxicated. Food was fine, but overall not the experience we expected. Especially for the price. Staff was very friendly. Small birthday cake for my son was a nice gesture. Maybe they are not used to the restaurant being this busy but it felt rather chaotic.

    The hostesses were attentive, but the bar staff were highly inattentive; we had to explicitly ask for the wine list, yet they brought us food menus instead. While having pre-drinks, we watched staff clear our assigned four-seater table. We assumed they were resetting it, but we arrived to a bare table with just one water glass and one wine glass. Dismantling a fully set table right before seating us was baffling and embarrassing, especially as we were entertaining international guests. To make matters worse, our waiter seemed completely uninterested in serving us, making it clear he just wanted the evening over with. We tipped only out of obligation. The restaurant's ambience is its only saving grace.
